Can't remember the name but we missed on another good OL to a gopher PWO offer last year. I think he was a lakeville kid. Edit: Eric Rousemiller

Hard to not see what they are doing with today's world of twitter and other social media.

Yeah, personally I think the "slow recruiting" (my feeling too) has more to do with impatience for football season and football news than it has to do with actual slow recruiting. trying to remember how we got quite a few big commits last year after the recruiting weekend, where recruits attended games. Or am I remembering that wrong?
-
Can't argue with that; like I said, just anxious for any football news at this point in the summer. Really like the potential with this Rain Slater from Canada. Also impressed with a few other offers we do have out. I suppose some of these kids will wait to make there commitments until they can make their campus visits and maybe see a game. Would really like to get Marquis Majors. Would also like to land Audette or Carette; if not both. Gotta keep beefing up that O line to get ready for the MVFC.
-
Fair enough. Have to give the coaches credit for what they evaluate in person. They obviously see what they want in those kids. Just getting anxious to see some more names and play makers pop up.
-
Anyone have any insight on recruiting? I though we would see more offers out, considering both camps have wrapped up. Also a little curious about the last coupe guys that we have seen offers too. I know we recruit based on what our coaches see, not what other schools are recruiting them; but it is a little curious that we have put out offers to a few guys that only hold D2 offers. Yes, the Santiago only had one D1 offer argument can be made, but they can't all turn out like that either. Seems like there are still some pretty good names in Minnesota that are available. Were some of these kids at our camp? Are the coaches just waiting to offer, until the in-season recruiting weekends? Seems somewhat risky to wait too long, when kids may have other options out there; especially high talent kids. I trust Bubba and staff, just curious. http://247sports.com/Season/2018-Football/RecruitRankings?State=MN

Miller said he would follow up on it during Media day next week.
-
Would he have already applied for that then, and when would we know?
-
That would be great news if it happens.

.... anyway, regarding the upcoming season, is there anything new that we can try to project? Who will be the big player to step up into the CB slot. I expect Carter, Holm, and Hunt to all play significant roles, but who else? Dre Randolph seemed pretty like a pretty big commit when we got him, thoughts? Blubaugh has also seemed highly touted. As for Safety, who do we have that will get valuable reps to prep for next season when we lose Reyes? Obviously Stewart should slide into some serious playing time if healthy, but who else? I'm sure Flowers will get some playing time. Canady sounded like he was going to be a solid player coming out of HS. Jaxson Turner is a big dude, and comparable in size to Cole. Coaches must believe he can be an impact player if they moved him. What happened to Vashon Tucker; he also sounded like he has some solid offers coming out of HS, but we haven't heard much about him. Moving Turner back to safety makes me wonder if the coaches are just not very high on Tucker. Seems like we have more depth at safety, though a lot of it appears to be young and unproven. If the coaches can get a few of these young guys to step up; UND could have one of the best secondaries, and one of the best all around defenses in the country in 2018.

You are correct sir

This app is the big move that we were looking for from the Big Sky last season, when they announce their new app. Funny that this didn't seem to have the build up of the "big announcement" that the app did.
-
Obviously we will miss Reyes after this season, and I really hope we can find some solid replacements and depth at safety this year, but our CBs are going to be pretty loaded with talent in 2018. Carter and Harris will be seniors; Hunt and Holm will be Juniors; and quite a bit of depth behind them. I will miss watching Harris this year, especially after re-watching his pick 6 against N Arizona last night, but thank goodness Bubba has recruited talent and depth to the position (compared to only a few years ago). Harris's absence will provide extremely valuable reps for some other players that are in the mix.
-
Have to tell you, that was kind of a jerk move to mention that was on, as it kept me up later than I was planning Seriously though, those last 10 minutes were still intense to watch, not sure how I made it through them the first time around. Forgot just how close we came to not pulling off the comeback, between a 3 and out, called back TD, several other penalties, 1st and 35 at one point (I think) .... truly and improbable comeback, but so much fun to watch. Very impressed with the stream quality, as I just watched it from my phone last night. Looking forward to seeing it via Roku on my TV.
-
Awesome, thanks for the heads up. I'll probably be up in the DL area during that game, so will probably check with the local bars first. Great to know though.
-
Has there been any more details on the Utah game? Is there a Pac12 app, or can viewers stream directly from Pac12.com? Free? Apx. Amount?
-
For what is is worth, the posters on the Griz fan board have pretty much all posted well wishes for Deion and UND. Every fan base has some jerks, including our own, but the majority of people understand the bigger picture.

Must have been cheaper in GF than Fargo. I just got a hat for 25 this past week. Also finally ordered a shirt too. I'm still in between on the name/logo issue. I still say I'm excited for Sioux hockey or North Dakota Football or UND Basketball, but I've finally broken down and bought some Hawk apparel.
-
Was already asked, but does anyone know if it is too late to add an FBS drop down? We have quite a bit of talent back there, but it would be nice to have some experience and leadership at corner too. Thought?
-
This question seems to come up from time to time. I believe you are correct, no medical redshirt needed. You get 5 years to play four. If Harris was poised to come back next year and the injury prevented him from it, I believe he could then apply for a medical redshirt since the injury extended into a second season.
-
Recruiting a Batman would create so many marketing possibilities. Mandatory new jersey's!
-
Must have been in GF. Fargo doesn't have much at all, and most apparel is pretty garbage, especially for the price. I did finally get a Fighting Hawks hat today.

As I wrestler in HS, I always had the opposite problem. Too much to lose, in too short of a time.
