    I live in Minot so have watched Darik play quite a bit the last 3 years. The Skunberg comparison really isn’t fair because they’re not really similar players, but they’re roughly the same height, relatively close in age, both played in the west region, and both are D1 players. 
    Dissette’s longer, a little more athletic, and can get to the rim better. Skunberg’s a better shooter (at least in high school),  stronger, and maybe a slightly better ballhandler. Skunberg has developed into a really good defender in college, but I don’t remember his defensive prowess in high school. Dissette is already a good defender now, and if he can get stronger will just get better. 

    Seen him play a few times as well and I would say that's a very good assessment.  

  2. What's up with the Ultimate Fan Experience in Bismark having the Nickle Throphy available last week for the public to view? We had 3 former Sioux football players in town for the Spring game this year (Jimmy K, Chris Kuper and WD). UND held a gathering at the CanadInn for fans and alums along with the above three guys, and they had the McNaughton Cup there? Don't get me wrong, it was great to be able to see and have my photo taken with the cup. I guess I just think they would have had the Nickle Throphy there before the McNaughton cup. Just jealous of Bismark I guess.

    We had the Cup and the Nickel in Bismarck. Got a great picture of my two youngest daughters in their Sioux Cheerleader outfits with both of them. :D
