UND-FB-FAN

That said school and program (North Dakota State University of Agriculture and Applied Sciences football program) is also used to ignoring other unspecified guidelines and then asking for forgiveness later; a complete embarrassment and waste of tax payer dollars. Onward.

Winning and development will trump all. Can’t go out of your way to emphasize a certain position group if it jeopardizes the overall goals of the team and program. And many are going to have to come to grips that you may lose student-athletes even if you “utilize their position group” - it’s the current world of college football. With all that said, we should want to see all position groups succeed more than they have been, and I’m hopeful we will see that moving forward. Let’s start by awaiting the official announcement of the new TE coach ……

I agree we should definitely be open to welcoming back any good player from ND, in this case specifically Fordville, ND, but there’s definitely many other ways to use the roster spot if need be. It may in fact be water under the bridge at this point, and if so, there’s always a lesson; such as don’t extend failing coaches with the stamina for retirement, not championships. Onward.

A lot.

This overall is a situation that UND and Schmidt need to take advantage of: opportunity to move up the MVFC pecking order quickly.

Yes

If you hate to say it, then don’t say it. You can turnaround a program in 1-2 seasons nowadays. NDSU has an advantage with just high school recruiting and development, as they’ve been winning championships for so dang long. Now, though, you have to be able to do both - recruit and develop, but also utilize the portal. It’s because the good ones will leave. Nothing wrong with recruiting pure talent, even if it is not directly from high school. Winners win. The work works. Get it done. Stop crying and just do it. Time to start winning here at UND, and bout damn time to put football on a pedestal (been a thing coming the past few years with the new facilities pending). Let’s go

Huge. Literally and figuratively.

The essence of competition.

Competition at the most important positions in football is a great thing. Schmidty and Fruechte can bring in all the quarterbacks and offensive and defensive linemen they want as far as I’m concerned.

Recruit. Recruit. Recruit. Develop. Sustain. We can all agree it’s important, and that it was not nearly good enough the last couple years with an aging Bubba, and here’s to hoping Schmidty knocks it out of the park. Ya’ll do your part and support the program and the collective.

I agree. And I’ll (again) mention quarterback is important too. But I agree that the lines on both sides (offensive and defensive) are by far the two most important groups in football.

Just because a fire was already started doesn’t mean it’s right to throw gasoline on it. Some regulation is needed in everything to a certain agree, and NIL and the transfer portal is no different.

Yet look what our new governor (who has two degrees from UND) just did yesterday … it’s beyond maddening. I tell you … the UND community needs to rally to make everything right again in the world.

Ha! I dislike NDSU, and I dislike most of its supporters, at least one day out of the year. Useless university, waste of tax dollars. Bubba 2.0 …. We’ll see, we’ll see. Stay classy Fargo and Bison Dan, ya f*ck.
