NDSU grad

Another dynamic is Minot Youth Hockey could give two s**ts about the hs program(s). It’s all about bragging about getting kids to major juniors/D1.

My youngest son is friends with quite a few of the kids on the hockey team. Nobody on the team could believe Keller was omitted from the all WDA team.

That is such a Minot thing to do. Not surprising though, given the ‘leadership’ of the athletic department at Minot Public.

As a % of the total dollars, very little research goes to developing/testing ag pesticides. There’s just such little development in that industry anymore.

Grenora, ND and Westby,MT co-op all their sports. I believe they all ply in Montana, except for wrestling, which competes in ND.

I know a guy with three kids. Harrison, Eisenhower, and Reagan.

Minot had a nice weekend at the Roseau tournament, going 3-0. Not sure of the quality in that tournament but it’s usually a decent test.

He was a true freshman during the spring 21 season, which basically doesn’t count toward eligibility. He redshirted in fall 21 while injured, then played 22,23,24. So yes, I think he has one more year if he wanted.

Quincy was all right. Zen Noland might be a better example. Personally, I’d rather see high end guys from lower divisions come in than guys who never got meaningful snaps at mid-level FBS programs.

From what I’ve heard, there’s 4 individuals ( I believe current members) who are purchasing it.

Correct. Although the country club was going bankrupt anyway. They did find buyers for it though.

It’s usually an administrative position that does little to no actual recruiting. A lot of times it’s an entry level position for guys with coaching aspirations.

I haven’t heard anything about Schepp or Bodine. I’ve seen both Bodine and Broderick(your commit from Minot High) play. I know it’s hard to compare because level of play, but to my very amateur eye Bodine seems to move so much more fluidly at a similar size. I’m surprised he doesn’t have more offers.

Yeah, I don’t follow you guys closely. I just remember Pedigo standing out. I was also impressed with the back end of your defense. I’m sure there’s a few guys who could play for either of the SU’s.

Pedigo for sure. Might be a few others but I thought he was a dude when I watched him against the Bison.

Not saying you’re wrong, but this hasn’t been NDSU’s M.O. all year. Not a lot of blitzes and we’ve run power about 10 times all year it seems.

Thanks. My kid is friends with him so I was going off that info. Should know better than to trust a 15 year old. Ha ha.

Also, Grubb is at Shattuck’s and there’s another younger kid that went to Notre Dame (the Canada version).

EPIC also has two large projects ongoing in Minot and they also run the Norsk Hostfest. Be interesting to see what happens with all that.

Have heard through the grapevine you’ve extended an offer to Griffin Broderick, lb/rb from Minot High. Looking for confirmation.

Rudy’s AD at Lewis and Clark High School. Berthold ND. Has coached football there the last 4-5 years. His wife has a very good job in the Minot Public School system so I’m guessing that’s why he never pursued another college coaching job. Don’t know about Knauf.

NDSU has filled all of its open coaching spots.

Iowa’s offense got remarkably worse after Polasek left. I don’t know if you can attribute it to him leaving but the stats don’t lie.

Agree. Didn’t seem like he was enjoying his job this year.

Sigle for sure. I could argue Eubanks as well. It doesn’t really matter where they go, what matters is they left. Sigle, Eubanks and possibly Dom Jones would have been starters this year. Kobe would have added depth to the rb room, and Pierce probably would have started as well. That puts a lot of stress on a coaching staff to either go to the portal themselves (which is a total crapshoot at this level) or put in a guy who might not be quite ready to play yet.
