  1. I have met Dayo a few times and he is really an impressive person. He is a good student and a Chemical Engineering major. Our 2015 team and beyond will be in good hands if we have people like him on board.
  2. I was a few rows behind the bench. 90% of what Jones did was berate his players, whine to the officials or hang his head and pout. I really don't mind a coach that gets after his players. I also don't mind a coach that works the officials but he is really bad at it. His body language with slumped shoulders and head hanging is really bad. Maybe he is just beaten down by this point. I don't know.
  3. Sitting behind the und bench. Jones would be hard to play for. Very negative all the time with players and terrible body langeuage. Whiner.

  5. I watched him play twice last year. He was a horse in HS.
  6. Here's to hoping they will be scholarship players at UND in a year or two. We need good players who are good people.
  7. Nope. You came to a "former" rivals fan site to talk smack about rings. I'm just saying that the number of rings isn't the real measure of college success. Maybe go to SDSU's site and see what your new rival is up to today.
  8. I do know him and his family personally. I don't want to call him out by name on here but that doesn't change the truth. Rings are nice but if you don't learn anything else while you are there, college has failed you or you have failed it.
  9. And I know a local kid who has 3 rings from SU and has been done with school since last May. He has no job and isn't really interested in looking for one. He sits in his parent's basement all day playing video games. Is that what it means to be a football player at SU? Those rings don't mean squat if you don't get anything else out of college. My son won't play college football and won't have any rings but I trust that his future will be a lot brighter as a teacher and coach for the next 40+ years vs. some of the slugs that have those rings. There is a hell of lot more to be learned in college than what you get on the football field and the number of rings don't really tell much of the story.
  10. Need players like this. Go Sioux!
  11. Welcome to both of you.
  12. SiouxFootballInsider ‏@SiouxFootball 1m1 minute ago WR Tim Dulin of Churchill High School in Livonia, MI has committed to #UND Football.
  13. PM me or reply if you have any for sale.
  14. We are digging out of the hole that was created when we were D2 and others in the region went D1 and we couldn't compete on scholarship $$ and then not being playoff eligible and the others were. You can't fix that overnight but I think Bubba's got a chance to do it.
  15. I live in the Twin Cities and have season tickets. I was at all of the games except for the last one when I was in Brazil. Too long of a commute from there.
  16. I believe his father is Wally Keller who played fb at UND in the 1980s.
  17. Stefan had a very troubled basketball journey. He had an offer to USC in HS and they pulled that offer before he graduated. He then went to La Salle, Wisconsin-Green Bay and UND.
  18. Is Stefan still with the team?
  19. Not much new information lately. Hope it picks up after the dead period.
  20. that is right. He is a Minnetonka kid and I coached him a little bit in fb and baseball as a kid. Money isn't really a concern. Grandpa Redmond founded Redmond hair care and Aussie shampoo.
  21. Here is the way I see it. SU currently has a recruiting advantage due to: when they went D1 first they had more money to offer - I know of at one high profile recruit who told UND he would come if they could match the full ride that SU offered but they couldn't so he went to SU During our transition SU had the advantage of having something to play for (playoffs) when we didn't - I know of another high end player who told UND that he was choosing SU for that reason. Their recent success is a big advantage currently It will take time to overcome this situation but believe that we will like we did in the past and ended up the series winning 10 of the last 13.
  22. I thought Shanks looked pretty good considering he hasn't played forever and it was his first college game. I think he can help going forward.
  23. Not much team basketball. Lots of individuals out there. Where is Dave Gunther when you need him?
