Yes I'm sure he is. I like all of the names you mentioned. I wonder if Rob would be interested or if he is semi-retired. He would be great.

I would take him. He didn't know me from Adam when he was at UND but we crossed paths a few times and he was great to me. Very personable.

Dale Lennon?

I hope it is fairly benign or positive all the way around. We don't need any more turmoil for a while.

I don't know why people think the cupboard should be full of backups that are ready to be starters. Bubba has had 3 full recruiting classes. Those players are True Fr, RS FR and Sophomores. Most of the Fr and RS Fr certainly are going to be challenged in a full time starting role. Some would be ready to start but not as many as we have needed. There are also some Juniors he was able to recruit in the short time he had after getting hired. There is no way we are getting all of the recruits we want right now so we are going to be thin at most positions. We need to start winning and build the program to do that. This year is a tough setback in that progression

If he can. I don't know the legal ramifications

I trust Bubba and know he will do his damndest to clean this up quickly. He isn't the kind of person to look the other way.

We did have a discussion about this last year or the year before on here. One of the guys I played with who played some in the CFL said he was shocked that UND didn't do more position specific stuff. That philosophy was roundly debunked on this forum at that time. I agree that the injuries aren't due to the S&C program but am still surprised that OL are doing the same program as CBs - if that is true.

I was agreeing with your post and it seemed like a good lead into my opinion.

People that minimize the impact of the injuries we have aren't being fair to Bubba and the program. Yes, some of the Bubba recruits are over matched. They are the younger players on the team and don't necessarily have the experience or the physical size to compete at this level yet. It also takes some success before you can get enough recruits that are at the the level of you want. That is where I think this year will hurt us since we won't be as attractive to the HS players we want.

Did JJ see the field yesterday?

10-12 now

MSU 9-11 on 3rd down. Can't win if let them do tbat.

I cast thru my iPad to my TV using Chromecast and it was awful too.

there was a player with no pads and ice on shoulder. not sure who it was

37-16, minute and a half left

heidelbaugh in. Nothing wrong with Studsrud, is there?

yep. my bad

I am not against punting earlier but if you do that why call timeouts now?

Mercer has to get his hands out and not try to catch the ball with arms. Should have been caught either way.
