UND1983

I agree 100%. We all want them to win games. How they go about it is certainly not cut and dry but it starts with hitting on some local kids

You want recordings and affidavits? Let me know when those P5 transfers start coming to town. Meanehile, I will keep commending them for trying the Juco route to fill holes, much like Herbst talked about in the presser a few weeks ago. Need to get better and more mature/older like the other teams in the league.

You need data? Oh ok. If you haven't talked to anybody who recruits the portal then how can you possibly speak on it?

When it comes to the portal, which is what we were talking about, they would tell you it is very difficult to get a distance kid that is worth a damn to go far away from their current location. They typically always transfer closer to home (typically). Now if the kid is from the midwest then we got a shot. However, SDSU, NDSU, USD, UST would also feel they have a shot. We cannot fund every sport on campus at the top of their conference. And provide all energy and resources the same. No school in the country does that and UND is no different. Hockey eats up the most. FB is a distant second. Then the basketball's are further down than them.

Let us know when it happens.

How about you understand I wasn't responding to the exact same point each time so you probably shouldn't combine them all.

What was your point? Because we were talking about the P5 transfers from the portal, not HS kids.

We know the facilities are not great at UND. Quit comparing ORU to UND. The emphasis on the programs is night and day. ORU MBB is #1 on campus, along with baseball iirc.

You are clueless. Talk to a coach from any team on campus and let me know what you find out about how the portal works.

I was talking about our current and past players in Shockey and Grant. If you are already calling our future commits fringe D1 then OK, that's you.

I am having a great week. Which P5 they are part of?

2015 Creighton was far from a P5 program. And in fact they still aren't......

So in your mind it's very doable to get a P5 transfer to UND who would make a difference?

You obviously have no idea how it works recruiting in the portal. Just sit this one out or talk to a coach about how it goes.

To compare ORU getting P5 players to UND is a bit disingenuous. Location, arena, history, etc. Location is massive in the portal world.

They can't get a player if they don't offer, right? Better than not offering If it was easy to get P5 drop downs they would be doing it. Juco's are overlooked now because of the portal.

Give them credit for adjusting. They know their HS kids aren't ready or good enough. Need transfers like everyone else is getting

Trent cannot shoot but is a very good driver and low post scorer once down there vs similar sized guy. Why not more clearouts for him to work?

Hard to adjust when your players aren't as good as the opponents. Recruiting and retainage.

We love to let the other team's best player score their career high. This is so embarrassing

Screams of "donations are getting harder to secure, let's do something"

Need a better finalist pool next time. Those three were not great.

You both are straight WINNERS. That is something the rest of us have to aspire to

The board was just fine before you got here to tell everyone how basketball should be coached and will be fine after you're gone.

He posts the same thoughts 100x a year and acts like he is breaking news each time. You can easily leave the forum also if you don't like people calling him out.
