  1. When you're kicking good you are able to aim for a target behind the goal posts vs just trying to get it through.  Pick a flagpole, something on the scoreboard, a person in the stands or whatever.  When it's going bad it's an adventure for sure.

    I’m certainly missing some. Feel free to help me out. 
     

    Doesn’t appear Seidl (Wake Forest) or Olagbaju (Iowa) are on either of their teams two deep for Game 1 
     

    Brady O and Evan Holm tearing it up for Winnipeg again. Brady is leading the CFL in rushing yards again. Holm with 47 tackles. 

    Quincy Vaughn is 3rd in the CFL in rushing TDs with 8.

    Ventrelli has started 11 games for Montreal 
     

    Waletzko on Chiefs IR

    Kuper is the Eagles OL coach

    Hagen made the Texans roster 

    Kilty on Saints practice squad 

    Wake Forest shows top 4 RB on depth chart and he’s not listed.   Not top 2 KR or PR either. 

  3. One last time for this suggestion from me......

    Why don't we focus this thread on discussions regarding it's name - 2026 Non-UND FCS News/Scores Thread?

    Someone can then create another thread for "NDSU P!ssing Match" or whatever so those that want to really read and discuss "2026 Non-UND FCS News/Scores" can see actual content on that vs. NDSU who doesn't fit the title of this thread.

    slot machines at short or tall and rumors...easy

    Not sure what the payback is for slots outside of Vegas but there it is around 90%.

    If you ignore expenses, that'd mean you need a handle of just under $1B over those 10 years to clear $97.5M  Good luck with that

    Based on what we saw on Thursday, what we will see on Sat and next Saturday did we make the right decision in staying here??  I don't think so? Just my opinion. 

    SU paid $17.5M to move up and an estimated increase to fb budget of $8M/year.  Over 10 years thats an extra $97.5M, assuming the yearly costs won't go up which isn't realistic.   

    Where (or who) do you think that money would come from for UND football?

    Watching the highlights on X when they show a TD.  Seems like Jerry is throwing a more catchable ball to the WRs?  Accurate or is LIU that bad?

    Both I  think.  Jerry looks good.

    Chaves and Schmidt need to be told about this disaster.  I for one am really upset. I am 79 today and have been looking forward to this for months. Again, second class IT performance by our contractors.  How can you promote a program and raise money with this display of ineptitude in the media.  

    Happy birthday

    I don’t think many of you understand how most teams recruit. It’s a team effort. RB coaches aren’t the only ones responsible for recruiting RB’s. 
    ST coaches are primarily responsible for KO coverage/return, punt coverage/return, XP/FG team alignments. Very few, if any, are kicking or punting coaches. It’s too specialized. At college level and above they work with private kicking and punting specialists. 
    Kostich is an excellent recruiter and is involved with recruiting the LS, K and P guys but it’s a team effort. 
    I know there are some former end of the bench guys who don’t understand how respected Kostich is by the players and his colleagues. If anyone doesn’t understand the importance of what he does for this team ask Schmidt. 
    One practice where kickers struggled isn’t a reason to be looking for someone to blame. It’s complicated. 

    I can attest to what Schmidt thinks of Kostich.  In person heard him talk about going to national conventions with all the big dogs in fbs. Said Kostich more than holds his own when it gets to X’s and O’s  Same based on his own FBS experience.

  9. I believe the new NCAA "5 for 5" rule starts this year.  5 years to complete 5 years of eligibility, no more redshirts but can play for 5 years.  Lots of talk about this regarding hockey but will impact football as well.  No more limit of 4 games played to keep redshirt. 

    From a google search:

    The NCAA’s "5-for-5" rule is a Division I age-based eligibility model that allows student-athletes to compete for up to five seasons within a five-year period. [1, 2]
    The NCAA Division I Cabinet unanimously adopted the rule to streamline roster management and eliminate archaic redshirt requirements. Key structural details of the rule include: [1, 2]
    • Clock Start Date: An athlete’s five-year eligibility clock begins at their initial full-time college enrollment or at the beginning of the academic year following their 19th birthday, whichever occurs first. [1, 2]
    • Elimination of Redshirts: Traditional redshirt years and sport-specific eligibility waivers (such as medical hardship waivers) are largely eliminated. Because every athlete is allotted five seasons, developmental and injury-plagued years are naturally absorbed without the need for extensions. [1, 2, 3]
