I love Gaven Ziebarth, I really do. Been adamant all year he should have been getting more touches. I am really disappointed in how we used him this year. Guy’s carry numbers this year are 2, 10, 8, 6, 7, 9, 3 (injury) and then 11 last game. I think we screwed up in how we used him all year and a lot of last year too.

How many early enrollees have we had in the past? The only one I can remember is Langden College but he transferred to Augsburg.

Crazy how we have gone from Jerry Heisman to this.

Already signed Moore, Evanson and Hanson.

Honestly, what good does that really do? I wouldn’t say there’s an assistant on staff I’m necessarily itching to give the keys to. If I was to, it would be Danielson, I think.

We are already in rebuilding mode almost every year, not sure it matters if that’s what happens.

Jeff Boschee would be brought up but wouldn’t say he’s killed it at Pitt State. Matt Margenthaler with Mankato could be interesting. Kyan Brown with Omaha is every Summit League team’s favorite assistant it seems. Wouldn’t mind poaching a Tommie, Cameron Rundles? Idk go get a P4 assistant.

Maybe northern didn’t have interest in bringing him back last year but if I was him I would have strongly considered it.

Would this years team beat the Paul Bruns led team? 2021-22 finished 6-25 including 2 non-D1 wins.

Really bad. I’m depressed.

Another jones illegal screen.

Karson Ouse should not be playing. Think it’s out of necessity with Micah not being able to play but man.

I may have said something along those lines. For sure thought he was the best shooter of our bigs but man he cannot buy one. And yeah he has an ugly looking shot.

Jealous. I was just watching the Hooker led Big Sky champ team the other night thinking how good we had it.

Sets a mean illegal screen

Unfortunately, agreed.

Let’s get the W tonight and build some momentum.

This^

Idk if it’s hype more as just someone that didn’t sign. Also, stars don’t really mean that much especially at this level.

I don’t know for sure on Headings or Harris but I guess I would be surprised if they’re signing with us during this period. Think we would have waited for the release until all were signed.

Yes please go interact with this guy! It may not be the ultimate reason he chooses a place but Schmidty wants us out there doing our best to show the love.

Not saying this is what happened by any means but with the transfer portal era I always get concerned players that are performing well minds wander elsewhere.

Alright, quick reset after the Hawaii game. No sense dwelling on that one, on to Idaho. UND heads to Moscow on 12/3 for an 8 PM tip in the Big Sky–Summit Challenge, and this should be a good chance to see how the guys bounce back. Idaho is 4–3 with a couple legit wins, including Washington State and CSUN (yep, the same CSUN that got us). They’re sitting at KenPom 236 while UND is 325, and the projection has Idaho winning 78–71, but this is still a matchup where UND should be able to hang around if they clean some things up. The Vandals are led by two young guys who can score it: • Kolton Mitchell (12.1 PPG, 4.3 APG) — quick guard, makes things happen • Jackson Rasmussen (15.6 PPG) — 6’7” freshman who’s already their go-to guy Idaho’s coached by Alex Pribble, year three for him, and they look a lot more organized than they’ve been in the past. For UND, this one is just about getting back to basics, playing with some energy, and showing they can respond after a rough one vs Hawaii. It’s a winnable game if they come out sharp. Game’s on ESPN+ for anyone wanting to tune in.
