Great point about OSU and OK.
Heisman QBs won in the last few years at schools they transferred to. Burrow at LSU started his career at OSU and is the likely winner this year.This isn’t about a typical transfer... we’ve taken plenty of transfers over the last 6 years (JJ, Kett, Zimmerman & many others).
This particular scenario is a kid that decommitted from UND three days before signing day....Totally different situations. Mayfield, Murray, Fields & Burrows never backed out of commitments to the teams they ended up transferring to.
All hypothetical at this point anyways...

We need to start valuing the program. Bubba Bucks devalued the program. Letting a kid flip in recruiting and then ask him to come back? Hell no. No player is above the program. He had his chance and left us out to dry very late in the game. We can’t allow ourselves to be that desperate looking. Perception is huge in recruiting.
Exactly...
“Second Chance U”??? No thanks.

Geaux_sioux’s list is spot on. Unfortunately, the same glaring issues have existed after every year for the past 6 years. Just keep recycling this list. I’d add lack of talent, depth & recruiting of the QB position to that list as well. Studsrud was a great young man, good leader & cerebral “game manager” type but he didn’t wow anyone with his athleticism or arm. Sure would be nice to have a game changer at QB.
New season = same problems

They said at Nicholls on tv
Sorry I was incorrect. Being on the bottom line, I thought UND was at home

UND vs Nichols
Winner to Fargodome

Listened to the postgame show on the way home from game. They interviewed Evan Holm. He talked about “playing for the seniors” & “playing for them” yesterday. They didn’t ask him directly about his plans, but the way he spoke makes me think he is planning on coming back next year & finished for this year.

Having guys with UND/local/regional ties is great, but with Chaves background from the East Coast, stops at N Colorado & Baylor and his EWU time, there could very likely be some coaches on Chaves’ short list without any UND or Midwest ties.

Shouldn't someone have known a little sooner that Case was looking elsewhere? It just seems odd that we lose him at the very last minute and don't have a capable replacement. A competent recruiter should always be one step ahead of the game.
There was no indication that Case was looking elsewhere... The new staff & OC at Texas State came in on him very late. He de-committed from UND three days before signing day.

Bubba didn't make a change all year... Why's he gonna start now? This coaching staff is stuck in the 80s... Maybe the 90s.
Can we just play Cal Poly each week?

John Santiago had 9 (yes, NINE) catches in 2016. This needs to change in 2017.
Bumping this post from Dec '16.
It did change in 2017..... He had 10

Well, firing season is alive and well somewhere in ND.
UMary's AD fired their head FB coach and then named himself interim head FB coach.
Or, in other words, Lennon fired Kotelnicki; Lennon names Lennon interim head FB coach.
I have a perfect candidate for UMary... loads of DII & NSIC experience. Added bonus: permanently resides a mere 115 miles away in Minot ND.

Remember in the off-season when there was all this talk about finding ways to get Santiago the ball in space, lining him up in the slot, etc. etc.... other than a screen pass or 2, it hasn't happened.
If you are not capable of playing the smash-mouth style you want, then time to add some new wrinkles & get a little creative. Sucks when our most talented & game changing offensive player is on the sidelines every other series. Be nice to see him & Brady on the field together.

Anyone else think it's been hurting us to not have Seible?
What are Seibel's & Stanley's injuries?

Yesterday's game you cannot even call them the fighting Hawks not game was horrible and all falls back on the coaching staff there needs to be some ass-kicking on coaching you will never have a team that can compete anywhere when they play like that I would say it's time for a new head coach that was a total embarrassment
Is that one sentence?

Johnnie sat with me a couple years back. Also ran in to him in the beer line at multiple other games. He pays attention...he just doesn't care.
I dont mind smart-ass youngsters.
No worries. There was a younger guy in the front row of your section at last years UND-USD game that gave equal parts $h*t to both USD & UND. Fit ol' Johnboy's M.O. perfectly.

Were you sitting in your boy VMeister's seats at last years USD-UND game by chance?

Power 5 schools pay other FBS schools from the G5 to play them, you don't see Alabama paying Ohio State to play them.
The point of the matter is if you need the money why pay someone who is from your division to play you.
A lot of FCS contracts are home & home. So saves us a return trip to Miss. in an upcoming season, which allows UND to schedule another home game or FBS payday game.
MVSU is an easy win & offers schedule flexibility for the upcoming years.

I'm guessing we get new jerseys in the next season or 2 with the updated fonts. Hopefully at that time the green jerseys have some combination of white, gray & black piping & stripes (white jerseys with green, gray & black) to make the white, green & gray pants all interchangeable with the jerseys. I'm hoping for a return of the black pants as well. Would be nice to get white and/or black helmets too.
Seriously doubt we'd be swapping out facemasks each game to match our pants.

All those UND grads that move down for the good jobs do really bring the narcissism levels up.
That's because the local F-M colleges are not capable of producing a skilled labor force to fill the "good jobs"
