I don’t disagree but also at this point I think it’s kind of up to Tyree. Who says he wants to continue going to school for 2 more years?

I don’t watch many women’s games but does hurst shoot every time she touches the ball? My goodness.

See Tyree tomorrow.

QB in question: 3 star out of high school. Offers from the MAC mostly.

Yeah I’d be very surprised if Tyree plays. I really think that for schools like UND that are mid-major and FCS the best case scenario is they end up ruling that 2x transfers still have to sit out. If they don’t, players really won’t think twice about transferring anymore.

Another road trip west. This time UND (KenPom 281) makes a return trip to Utah Tech (KP 234). Both teams are in a bit of a slide right now, although UND just handled Waldorf as they should. Utah Tech’s last 4 games include 2 wins vs top 170 KP teams and then 2 losses against bottom 270 KP teams. Looks like Utah Tech is a very balanced team with 6 guys averaging between 12.8ppg and 9.8ppg. Both KenPom and BartTorvik predicts this to be a 73-67 victory for Utah Tech. Game can be found on ESPN+.

Don’t think we will be seeing Tyree anymore.

Checking it out for the first time this weekend.

That’s all fair but I would think both Jake and Pearce are more of athletes. Maybe they both want to stick at QB though and having an offer out to both may rub one or the other wrongly. I just think they’re both kids that would find a way to find the field whether at QB or elsewhere.

About time. Now offer Pearce.

So what’s the lineup assuming Tyree plays? I guess idk if he starts immediately just to get his feet back wet but would imagine he’s our starting PG. Does Eli get bumped from the starting lineup? Or does Amar? I would think Eli but idk.

This is so wild. He will be a huge boost for sure. I don’t like the precedent it sets though.

Following this could be of interest to us. I’m not sure how much longer it would still be worth Tyree even playing this year though. Assuming the sophomore class sticks together, I’d rather him join that class next year as juniors.

One thing I like seeing yesterday is the defensive efficiency. They wanted to emphasize that and it’s hard to put too much stock into it with the opponent but it’s nice to see.

DONGGGG

Definitely Deeks

One thing about these games it makes you realize even more how the NCAA needs to adopt the so many game limit thing like football does where it doesn’t burn a year.

I said the scheduling talk had been exhausted but I will bite. So now we are going to create a conference battle with a D2? I don’t like that idea. I’m fine with playing one here or there but if we started traveling there or creating this yearly challenge then why are we even D1? The Big Sky/Summit challenge is a nice step. They had a challenge with the Horizon but Covid knocked it out. I don’t want a challenge with the NSIC.

Another non-D1 game. I think we have exhausted the scheduling discussion though. At least it’s not Oak Hills Christian, who Waldorf beat 101-54.

Just picked up an offer from Miami.

FYI - Fort is not in the portal.

I thought 4 was an appropriate spot. Maybe different with an eligible Ihenacho too. Basically I thought we would be fringe Tier 1 with SDSU, ORU and NDSU but instead I think we are tier 2 but closer to tier 3 than 1. All made up things in my head haha.

I’m a roller coaster of emotions when following a team so right now it feels all doom and gloom going forward. As I step back, I think we are fine but I don’t think we will finish where I want us to. While shooting is an issue, defense is our biggest issue. We have the athletes and length to be a good defensive team, minus maybe inside.

What are you hoping? The gophers call bubba? That’s quite the dream.
