UND92,96

Bubba's base salary at Duluth was $80,000. [url="http://www.duluthnewstribune.com/articles/index.cfm?id=57401

Last night on the WDAZ sports, Mannausau and Belmore were interviewed, and it certainly seemed as though both were pleased with the hire and planned on staying.

So far, so good with recruits' response to the hire: (from a Dave Kolpack A.P. story)

Mitch Sutton and Tyrell Rosemeyer have also reportedly been offered.

Mussman could be named sometime after 4:30 P.M. today: [url="http://www.grandforksherald.com/articles/index.cfm?id=62627

I believe Jones showed he's pretty strict given the length of Youmans' suspension last year for getting into a fight with a teammate. It sounds like young Mr. Callahan has some growing up to do.

I never actually saw the kid play, so it's hard to say. Based upon his high school accomplishments, I think he has a chance to be a player at SDSU, but I'm not sure I'd necessarily call this a huge loss, either. Time will tell, I guess.

UND press release on the Callahan departure from the program.

Kauker would never be mad at me. I went to Central!

I forgot to post last night that I'm reserving judgment as to the accuracy of the info until I get confirmation from Mark Kauk.

On the coaches' show tonight, Swyg said that Mussman will be named as Lennon's successor on Friday.

I guess this makes it official--Callahan's name has been removed from the roster. link

Good points.

Nobody else internally will apply. And since the process apparently isn't going to be opened up to external applicants, I guess there won't be any more applicants, period.

Like Jon Heimler, it sounds like running back Bradie Ewing has both a scholarship offer from UND, and a preferred walk-on offer from Wisconsin. link

I have to defend NDSU grad on this one. According to the post by "Marlins" earlier in this thread, Cavil had offers from UND, USD and UMD. He definitely knows Wisconsin recruiting, as he talks to pretty much all these kids. In terms of head-to-head "wins" in the recruiting game so far this year, Wisthoff for sure was offered by NDSU. I don't know one way or the other about the rest of the UND commits. I know there was considerable NDSU interest in Nichols and McGurran, but whether offers were actually made I can't say.

I believe it's more or less simply a kid who is invited to walk-on (as opposed to the player contacting the coach and asking to walk-on). There may be a bit more to it than that, but I believe that's the gist of it, anyway. EDIT: This is from Wikipedia:

According to a post by what I consider a very credible poster on the wisconsin sports network board, WR Jon Heimler (6-3, 189) from Menomonie is still deciding between UND and a preferred walk-on invite from Wisconsin.

Things should start happening again soon with regard to the presidency. On-campus interviews are to take place sometime in January (according to the above-mentioned Nov. 28 Herald article), with a new president expected to be named in early February. Hopefully then the a.d. hiring process will then begin in earnest.

Yeah, me and about 99% of the other posters on this board who never sign their real names.

UND has reportedly offered Fennimore (WI) linebacker Tyrell Rosemeyer: link
