UND has an offer out to a QB in Cali. Will post name later when back at computer.

Two - mine was same as southpaw I think. Brietbach might be Oregon.

SFI thinks Riddle may have committed.

Where does brietbach recruit? He got one this morning to

Yep he is on a visit there right now. Wonder which kids didn't make it in.

Alipate just committed to SDSU.

Anyone seen any of the kids out an about yet?

This is how I looked at it as well.....

That may not mean as much as you think as recruits likely have a great time everywhere. AJ Stockwell was tweeting about how awesome Montana State was prior to committing to UND. Does anyone know if Beaugard has a visit planned in Grand Forks?

SamsRams on b-ville said he has confirmed this is a UND offer rather than NDSU. http://www.scout.com/a.z?s=143&p=8&c=1&nid=6549104

Must be walking on I would assume.

This kid looks like a DL.

Ran into something interesting on twitter. A gentleman whose name appears to be JJ McElroy (I can't find anything online) has a photo with the UND logo and says he's going to be playing football there. Anyone know anything about him? EDIT: Looks like he's enrolling for Spring so maybe a JUCO?

Hopefully all the kids can make it this weekend, and hopefully Mr. Bell solidifies his commitment.

This could be a kid that we should keep an eye on for 2014. Father played at UND, so hopefully we have a good shot. http://www.gopherhole.com/news_article/show/209957?referrer_id=331171

I've heard a lot of good things about Grande. I really don't know much about Moore or Opara, which is surprising being down in the metro. Maybe I need to go look at them a little more. And I'm by no means a very good talent evaluator . I could be completely wrong in my assessment.

Surprises me about Tusler, and the fact that you believe there is another NG commit out there. Unless Brandon Miller or Garrett Cary are planning on being on the offensive side. It's funny you mention that Alipate might be interested in St Thomas, as I'd heard the same thing about Redmond. Maybe Norberg or Reyes is the latest commit, as they have both visited in December? Also curious as to why Bobbit is no longer an option - I don't believe he's given a verbal unless you think UND has backed off or he has stated he's not interested in UND.

Very good, heart warming story. Thank you for sharing.

I left out Combs and Clark as they both list us as "Low" on scout, so they are not likely the way it looks. Both would be good gets, but I don't see it (although I'd love to be wrong). Forgot about Kubick - he would be nice as well.

I know that we had a wish list put together earlier, so I thought I'd do a little refresher. Here is a want (somewhat realistic in my mind) list that I have by position and need. QB - we only have one known offer out right now, and that's to Conor Rhoda. I haven't really seen enough of him to determine my thoughts, but the coaches must really like him and I'm a believer that we should try to have a QB in every class. Another option would be a PWO to someone like an Eric Bachmeier our of Kindred. RB - As much as I'd like a Kani Benoit, I think that we're going to get Bridge Tusler out of Osseo. I really like him as a player, and he has "winner" written all over him. I don't think you will have anyone work as hard as he will to succeed. Also a wild card would be Layne Johs. WR - even with Robertson on board, he will likely only have four years so he's not a redshirt candidate. I'd like to see Aeron Carr, and think we havea good shot at landing him, although I think he could also potentially play CB. I also believe that Frankie Felix out of AZ, who is listed as a RB, played mostly WR and could be a possiblity here. OL - Assuming Dan Bell signs, we should be full here. However, I doubt they'd kick someone like Chad Fahning to the curb (although he is unlikely as he's interested in the U and the Ivies). I wouldn't mind seeing Carson Hogan as a PWO come in as well, since you can't teach size. TE - A lot of good players with offers out there. I really like Noah Scarver, but to be honest I'd love to see him at DE. But if we can't land Scarver, I like Patrick Baldenegro out of AZ. He is friends with Frankie Felix I understand, so maybe we see them as a combo coming up to Grand Forks. DT - With two already verballed, I think we are done here. DE - My favorites are Lorenzo Melvin and Fred Beaugard, although it's hard not to like a lot of the others that we have offered. I'm really torn, but anyone on our offer list committing would be pretty good gets. LB - Need a lot of help here. I really like Alipate and Redmond. Not sure how many UND is planning on signing, but these two I think are at the top of my list. Also really like AJ Goggin. CB - With Ryan McKinley leaving UND off his favorites, and the offer list dwindling, I'm not sure who we pick up here. I just haven't seen much on any of these kids. This is where I wonder if Aeron Carr would help the most, or if Trev Hadachek would play CB for us. S - Love Thurman. Really hope he joins the squad. Also really like Connor Strahm and Jesse Bobbit. I don't think we could go wrong with any of the kids on our list. K/P - Seem to be good here. What does everyone else think? Anyone I'm missing or anyone that I may have an overinflated sense of worth?

Okay, let's focus back on UND recruiting again.

No - he got an offer from WMU and is considering opening up his recruitment again.

So we have a fairly big recruiting weekend it seems, and I've heard the weather up there may not be the best. Hopefully everyone is able to make it up there and have a good time. Hopefully we get a few chest bumps (specifically looking at Mr. Thurman ) by Sunday. Has anyone heard of others that are going to be on campus this weekend?

Does anyone have a rivals membership? Edgytim has an article on Jesse Bobbit, and I was wondering what it says. Looks like he is visiting SDSU this weekend, but I was wondering if the article mentioned any UND possibilities.

Don't any of you get tired of arguing about the same bulls&!t every day?
