True. That’s the problem, though, with strong knee jerk reactions. Got to let things play out sometimes and allow for in-game adjustments. Although the sudden resurrections of all the cliff jumpers during game threads is, at least, entertaining.

Nothing. I was giving you a compliment. You’ve had much crappier takes.

This wasn’t even one of your crappier takes.

Lance Rucker looked the part out there as a true freshman.

Tommy Two step!!

Actually up 2.59% Every student counts. UND is +350 student headcount compared to first day last fall. Headcount traditionally grows from first day to Census Day.

Idaho would give AC a bit of a run this year, me thinks.

I'd kinda enjoy watching those two clowns going at it on here. Sadly they never do. Two principled idiots at each other's throats. Pass the popcorn!

This is totally a bit.

But that’s all in your head. It’s not consistently true They all have demonstrated superiority in all those things on occasion. You can’t base how anyone will play against a D1 defense — non scholly or otherwise — on a HUDL tape where your facing a defense of state All Stars or Insta highlights from fall camp that are hand selected to be used for highlight reels. The sample size is just too small. He’s going to be good some day. But his time is not now. In the immortal words of UND-FB-Fan, if his time was now. … I would be concerned.

You should probably go mop the play area before the noon drive-thru rush.

Jerry's not ready yet.

They'll use the 4 strategically unless major injuries occur. He'll be even better after a year of winter weights and spring ball. He also has a cannon for an arm, if ever needed in a pinch or some trick-eration.

That’s what I said. But he’s that good now.

Maybe still getting comfy with the routes/playbook. Maybe a minor injury. Lots of things could be at play here.

From what I saw at fall camp, this 2 deep is about right. Mildly surprised no Kory Tai but not really. Don’t need him. Don’t burn the shirt just yet.

Tommy helped make time, running for his life.

IF you can retain them. Some schools in the RRV are having a hard time with the retention end of things.

UND excels in online delivery (the wave of the future). UND's on campus students benefit from its online proficiency. Some on campus students wouldn't be able to take some classes without the online delivery component. Many of UND's on campus students are also online students as they utilize online classes to graduate faster and get out into the workforce quicker. NDSU not so much, though their new dude is making a serious push in online. On campus enrollment is awesome for the Chamber and the GF community make no mistake. But Online mixed with on campus is the way to go. As one example, Arizona State has a huge overall enrollment but a big part of it is online, something like 62,000 online student enrollment. No one outside of Arizona makes the distinction and quibbles about it. It's reported the same whether the student is in Tempe or Timbuktu. Their enrollments are video game numbers compared to ours …just saying that when it comes to reporting from beyond the 701, no one makes the distinction on online vs on campus besides us.

UND is up by more than 2,100 total student credit hours on the first day of classes this fall. That should continue to increase until Census Day.

You and your buddy should get a RoomRoom.

In hindsight, serverly telegraphed by #2 and lazy route/reaction by #89.

Well said. If I may be preachy -- Unless you are a fan of SDSU this year, there are restless souls on every message board looking for the next flashy thing constantly. God, bless them. It comes out in threads about our communities as much as it does in threads about our athletics. Theses are the individuals who will call for the "future" of the franchise to jump the process, while their head is still swimming, trying to figure out college social life in a new town, their class schedule and the best way to get around campus and not be late, team meetings, strength and conditioning demands, deciphering a DI level playbook and all the other plights of new freshmen. Then, when the "future" finally gets his shot(s), these same individuals immediately start calling for the next big thing after the once-so-called "future" begins exhibiting even the slightest flaws (skill, mental or otherwise), maybe an occasional inevitable INT, or throws into double coverage, or doesn't adequately go through his progression, or causes a false start or two or three, or mistakenly runs into a sack, or short arms it on a long bomb, or God forbid mans the helm during an occasional loss, etc. As the once-so-called "future" builds more of a resume and exposes his game, the restless souls will get, well, restless, and start talking about that next wunderkind in the recruiting pipeline. Thus is life in message board world.

UND-FB-FAN loves you guys. We hear about it everyday. Multiple times. Ad nauseum.

And just a freshman!
