Troll-hit wonder - you won't even be active on this site at the end of the season.

Z has had durability issues so perhaps they want to see quality over quantity from him.

With a new coaching staff perhaps we see some situational QBs. If JTJ really has tough running ability he takes smaps when the sitatuion fits. Would love to see Simon on the field in a "Let's get ready to Romfro" formation.

FBS game goals: play to win, don't have any major injuries, cash the check.

No. 10 Tarleton State 42-0, Portland State 0 Well we'll know pretty quickly how the year is going to go. Portland State is September 6th.

From a financial standpoint aren't remote students the cash cow (guess technically that would be Moo U's term), they don't take up space, class size is easy to expand, they pay full tuition (most outstate probably).

I have to think that the NCAA has UND under strict guidelines and UND has to report how much "Legacy" merchandise they can produce and sell. As per the Chinese market it appears to me that UND has backed down on trying to monitor/restrict that - also it's virtually impossible to.

To be fair he's giving us almost daily updates and has only 90 minutes of field activity to source it. He's also doing regular feature stories on players. We are damn lucky to have him otherwise it would be all content from the Forum.

Same ones hated on Tommy Touchdown for "not being able to throw long" but ignored that his touch passes were automatic.

The bison-swille fans will say they aren't among the top 10 because "they can't play themselves."

Unbalanced schedules in the Big Sky and MVFC create a pretender every year. UND consistently has a top 10 schedule, obviously based on playing the SUs every year. As has been discussed, ad nauseam, to break through we gotta beat at least one of the top 2 (now 3) every year.

Got it - some sites have a code for sarcasm - I should recognize it I use it a lot

The only games they attend (at least until halftime) are home games. We have a 90% home winning percentage.

Our students are a disappointment every year. They trash the tailgating lot, sit with their head down on their cell phones and most leave after half time. Truth hurts.

Please share why the beat writer for the local paper has any agenda other than reporting what he sees. No matter what you think he knows more about UND football than you do.

It's no secret to the coaches, they will get the reps they need.

If everyone can gets their reps what is the benefit of announcing early?

One of my hopes is that we cut down on opponents third down conversions. It was frustrating to know that stopping a third and long was 50/50 at best.

Dave Gunther built his career and became a UND legend by preaching "hustle and defense win". That's what I see Hutter bringing to this team.

We win YSU and IS (both defense fails against lesser teams) and we are fringe playoff. Like to think the coaching change would have happened anyway.

You can block them, done it several times, but when they are quoted you will still see them.

Hoping Dennis has a breakout season, looking back he was hung out to dry many times with passes that weren't there. I trust the coaches to put the players on the field who give us the best chance to win. I hope the new system gives more players time on the field when it matters and that the players really "buy in" to the system which means if you don't start you understand you keep working and you don't give up and head to the portal.

Not gonna make it - weddings in the fall should not be allowed - just elope.

The NCAA is corrupt and will slap UND into the corner if they tried it, which they won't.

Agreed, there will always be headscratchers like how does Youngstown and Southern Illinois get the benefit of the doubt but not UND? Having attending nine games last year if our defense could have made one or two plays we would have easily been 7-5 - those plays will be made this year.
