As been said - we would be better if our qb scrambled for yards. Just the threat helps.
of course we don’t want our qb to get hurt either. Scramble and slide past the 1 st down marker please
I asked before - how much can we expect our qb to increase in arm strength (measured by how many yards he can pass) as he matures?
If you want a scrambling QB I don’t think Feeney is much of a scrambler. He is a good QB, but running is not his game.

It’s funny some of you Otis haters are blaming this all on him. I really think some of you legitimately want him to F up and get kicked off the team. Some of you are pathetic and are the reason I hate people sometimes.
That loss was not on Otis. He was the reason UND should have won that game. Fumbles can happen to anyone. That loss was on the coaching staff. Trick plays are great gadget plays to run once or twice a game. They shouldn’t be run on 4th down when you have been getting 3 or 4 yards every carry. It is almost like Freund doesn’t think they can just line up and beat you. He thinks he has to trick you.
I get a kick out of it every time Jack Michaels says UND’s coaching staff is the best in the country. -

If Tom Miller is on here, how about a point blank question asking how many practices and team meetings Otis has been late or missed completely.
Just ask around a bit. Will be interesting to see how they manage this going forward.
There were reasons Otis had very limited college options, and talent wasn’t one of them.

Harrisonburg, VA is literally in the middle of nowhere.
Being a distant suburb of Cincinnati, in another state, is cool? My gawd these kids are dumb.
Because why would you want to live in Virginia or a suburb of Cincinnati when you could live in Grand Forks? Yeah, those kids are idiots.

Win this week and minds will change. Biggest game of the season on Saturday. Bison fans act like they our close game meant nothing….
Didn’t think there was such a thing as a good loss.

They are all eligible for another year. But I believe coaches get to decide who they want back. If a senior is mostly just a career back up, they would probably want to free that scholarship up.
You might want to check on that. If they were seniors in the Spring and came back for the Fall this is their final year. If they were Juniors in the Fall and came back, they may be listed as Seniirs this year with another year possible.
NDSU lists both Christian Watson and Cordell Volson as seniors. Watson was a Junior in the Spring and could come back next year even though he has already said he is going to the NFL next year, but Volson was a Senior in the Spring and decided to come back. He can not come back next year.

It was probably even worse than embarrassing.
I used the attendance number from the game stat sheet.
Attendance shows tickets sold, not butts in seats.
Many empty seats scattered through out the central season tickets holder sections.You will have another sellout in 2 years. Not before that though. That is assuming both are still in the same conference.

Don’t know what’s going on with Otis and won’t speculate
i trust Bubba to take care of
move on
Well, Otis’s chances of playing this week got a lot better with the Smith injury. If Smith plays, Bubba probably sits Otis again.

I wonder if you felt the same about Joe Haeg. This kid is a good get. So is the Hackel kid. You can’t always tell by PWO vs Scholarship nor by who else offers.
Didn’t say he wasn’t a good get. Just pointed out that if Bubba or Entz thought he was had a really good chance to be a difference maker they would have offered a scholarship. Not saying he won’t start for 4 years, he might, but they both obviously think other kids are more worthy of a scholarship.

HUGE get for UND. NDSU wanted him too big time. We are definitely making strides on recruiting.
Not sure you need to get that excited about this commitment. Not saying NDSU didn’t want him, but neither school wanted him enough to offer any money.

No reason SDSU should have dropped that far in the rankings. Literally lost on one play that was going for the win. You guys should stomp NDSU. Don’t pull a Gophers and choke!
So if SDSU should stomp NDSU, this must be a must win for UND this weekend at SIU. If the Jacks should stomp the Bison then they should stomp UND too I would assume. Can’t go 6-5 and expect a playoff bid.

Weren't all your DBs chasing Otis last spring?
If I remember right he went through the middle of the line and broke a couple of tackles.

I love Otis but he was obviously benched for something a couple of games ago (right?). That showed gonadal fortitude….needs to be applied to offsides too…. I really wanted a solids season this year….hope it can turn around.
That was actually the opposite of gonadal fortitude. Sitting him in a game that was a guaranteed 40 point win didn’t show anything. Sitting him in a MVFC game or an FBS game would have. Sitting him against Drake didn’t teach Otis anything.

Need more speed everywhere.
This. UND doesn’t have people that when they get out in the open at the 30 they are gone. Even your speed back in Skokna would get run down by NDSU LB’s Cox and Kazor. That goes for the WR’s too, at least the ones that see the field.

I will say, nice call on the prediction. Funny how that works, hence, the “law”.
0.500 coach in DII. 0.500 coach in DI.
It’s how it goes.The Spring season got people’s hopes up for the first season in the MVFC. It was a “different” season. Schools were hit by massive opt outs in key positions that are tough to replace. SHSU will not win another championship this year. Last year was unique. I think .500 is probably what you are going to get from Bubba in the MVFC. Just an opinion.

Looks like the Valley is for NDSU to lose. Same old $—t.
I think SIU is in the drivers seat. They don’t play NDSU this year and will be favored by double digits in every game left on the schedule.

mwc looking at north texas, rice,utsa....
I hear they say if they are looking for success on the field they point to NDSU. They asked Larsen about the MWC and he said no comment. In the past he has flat out said he has not been contacted. They may be some truth to their interest in NDSU.

He was only ever going NDSU or FBS in my opinion. Hope we can get Luna Larson.
That is not what people on this board were saying that supposedly were in the know. They were saying UND had a much better shot at Hegerle than most thought. Maybe even an inside track. While I don't think Entz is a great recruiter, thankfully some assistants are and the program kind of recruits itself.

1 hour ago, UND08 said:That may be so...the Chargers may be weighing the choice of having a competent backup (in Stick) or a pseudo-assistant coach to help mentor Herbert (in Daniel). That being said...if Stick continues to play solidly this preseason he'll get a shot with another team when the final cut roster turnover mess gets sorted out.
And a different team would be best for him if he wants to play. But a lifetime back up QB in the NFL is a good gig. Chase Daniel has made about $50 million and has started 6 NFL games.

Yeah you are pretty spot on with that analysis. He had a pretty good half though. The other backup Daniel looks like hot trash right now. Stick has had 2 pretty good pre season games thus far. Right now I’d say it’s his job to lose from here on out
Except that Chase Daniel and the new coaching staff have a long history together. It will be extremely hard for this coaching staff to cut Daniel from what I have heard from Charger beat writers.

nope to that....
So if Lance was a UND player you would have said the same thing about Lance. That is complete BS. I think there may be a bit of envy that NDSU was mentioned multiple times on the NFL network tonight. Nobody has said he has been perfect, but lost is not remotely accurate.

What does that have to do with absolutely anything?
If you're going to feel the need to run lm around the internet defending someone by tossing out hypotheticals, then don't be surprised when someone responds in kind.
I am saying I hope Toivenen makes it. I hope Olivera gets a shot at the NFL one day soon. I am just saying that saying Lance looked completely terrible and lost out there like SIOUXFAN97 said, is a biased take. The vast majority of national NFL analysts did not come away with that take. I am not sure you could find one that did. My guess is if Lance played for the Kelly Green, SIOUXFAN97’s take would have been different.
