I'm hoping to make that trip. Should be a perfect measuring stick for the season and a great warmup for NDSU. I'm glad we aren't going from some fluffy spread team to NDSU, that would spell disaster. It will basically be two weeks of preparing for NDSU with a game in between. It's a pretty perfect situation for us. The negative is it gives NDSU film of us against a weaker version of them.

I thought Joe was on the verge of a breakthrough before he got hurt. He played so well late against Montana and was nearly perfect and in total control before his concussion against PSU. There's no way of knowing how he'll be coming off of thay injury though....

I'm pretty sure the average gpa of athletes at UND is higher than the general student population.

Don't athletes have a higher average GPA than the non athlete students?

Had a nice chat with one of the players today at church. He was pretty ecstatic about how things are going in the program. He said it's by far the best winter he's seen in the program. He also think Studsrud is going to really push for the starting spot.

I do know there were complaints about Nike cleats being too weak and breaking off. There were a few guys wearing Adidas cleats in practice since the cleats are more robust, and the shoes are lighter.

So you enjoy negative conversation more than positive?

Those dollars don't affect spring ball this year. Or next fall. Besides that's going to turn into the same old circle jerk. This on the other hand is so far free of bs.

The recruiting advantage one has become dilapidated.

And to have something other than politics to talk about.

The WR play should be 10x better next year. OL play should be solid from day one instead of being the number one weakness for the first half of the year.

Better be able to. If it's nice there will probably be a lot of students around for free food and drinks

Don't forget the new scoreboards distracting the team with moving pictures

It will be outside at Memorial which will be kind of cool.

Joe was playing extremely well before he got hurt. The game he got a concussion in he was nearly perfect. He also led us on a wild comeback against #5 Montana. He's my guy if he's healthy.

Two FB sets with Adler at TE and a 220lb rb..... Sounds good to me. If Norberg can catch like Iverson that could be a very flexible and powerful set.

They're too big to wiggle through some of the holes Jer squeezed through. That TD run against NAU is a good example. They can have similar success but in a different way.

Santiago is more similar to Jer. Higher top end speed though. Olivera and Arrington should give us what we didn't have last season. A dependable 3 yards if we need it.

I disagree on Studsrud. He sucked right away, and should have given the situation. Like I said we'll have a better idea what he's got going forward after spring ball. He's only in his first winter strength and condition season. He'll be bigger faster and stronger for spring ball than he was last fall.

Studsrud showed some good stuff last year. How he looks in spring ball will give us an idea of his potential long term. I hope Mollberg is 100% for fall camp so we can put the best man in at qb.

Let's talk football instead of politics. What do you think the two deep is looking like?

Just think how good Weber could be. Or even further, Kansas..... They'd never lose if they had teh swoosh

The three stripes add unnecessary weight to the shoes when compared to the swoosh. They're a death trap.
