Tasked with keeping Wednesday's recruiting class on track, particularly the offensive side??

Classy take. Just watched the local sports where former rb James Johannesson described Bubba as a stand-up guy who did a lot to set him and other players up for their futures, but he must be wrong because I read from SS experts he's selfish, greedy and corrupt. I think it's possible to appreciate Bubba's dedication to his job, his players and UND, and at the same time acknowledge the program's been going in the wrong direction recently under his direction. But it's a dichotomy some here seem to unwilling or unable to recognize.

Dixon, per Bubba's EOY press conference, battled injuries all year. He and Teiken were both Sophomores. Maybe a bit premature to brand them "a bust."

And #2 budget includes debt service on new facilities.

Lower level, Sec 114. $160 for both. Text 701 866-3872 if interested.

LOL. You understand nothing of the kind. And "corruption" isn't exaggeration or hyperbole; it's an accusation. Maybe try being a bit more careful with the bs you're throwing against the wall.

#2 QB for Michigan State last I heard/read.

UND "hit well with the lower level transfers," per Tom Miller in his GFH weekly newsletter today. LB transfers will help, per his assessment, and says d-line transfers have impressed in 11-on-11 drills. He also speculated Hawks will pull the redshirt from Deng Deng.

Do tell! Very interested in what you learned "behind closed doors." Perhaps you could share the difficult questions you asked, to whom you addressed them and what specifically you were told in response.

Really? What do find to be so wild and who's crazy? Maybe an issue of priorities. My interest/support/allegiance is with the school and program. No ill will toward any player, but the transfer portal has not been a good development for schools in mid-majors or the FCS. Given unlimited transfers and the significant number of football portal entries who never find another team, it doesn't seem particularly negative to speculate that, for many, portal entry may not deliver everything they are hoping for.

UND gets an o-lineman via the portal, per gf herald. Curtis Gorder, 6'4" 300- pound center/guard from Iowa Central. Reportedly, offer out to 6'7" ol Stephan Stellar, portaling from Sacred Heart.

I listened to a McFeely/Izzo podcast where, after the obligatory AC fawning, they addressed this issue. By their count, UND has had the third-lowest number of players entering the portal among MVFC teams since season's end at 10. The AC has had fewer at 6. SDSU at 4. Murray State has had 42 portal entries. Youngstown 26, Indiana State 20, USD 15, SIU and MoState 13, and N. Iowa 12.

... and the student-athlete still has his/her scholarship and a spot with the college and the program to which he or she committed, correct? Speaking of commitment, how long before NLIs are declared null and void, and coaches can start prep for a season or a contest with a weekly Monday morning head count?

Here's your chance to be a hero. Just a nickel on the dollar from your big oil field checks and the problem is solved.

Elsewhere ... SDSU 50, NDSU 27 at the half
