I don't think you understand how good Bellmore was. When he moved to DE UND's run defense was great. He has the all time record for blocked FGs and basically won us a game with that skill at Central Arkansas with 2 blocked FGs, one being a late game winning attempt. When he had a season ending injury as a senior the run defense was never the same. Unfortunately you failed to read what I wrote and just filled in your own stuff. I said players like Brock don't come out of ND very often because they just don't. It's a fact. He more than just contributed, he was a game changer and the cornerstone of the defense that allowed fewer than 1000 total rushing yards in a season. You obviously missed it or just wanted to be a contrarian too much but I talked about how there are probably alot more Dan Hendrickson or you could insert Travis Beck type players in ND that are a little short or small but are tough smart and are just plain good at football that get missed by D1 schools. These guys were both unheralded recruits and turned out to be stars. Try reading a little more carefully next time.

Luckily UND hasn't put much on film this year with the struggles of the offense.
-
We used to struggle in Cali. Both teams aren't very good. The question is.... Who is worse?
-
Now that I think of it there was a Bellmore type player that came out of GF last year. He's doing track at UM though...

Players like Bellmore don't come out of ND very often. I would bet that there are a lot of Hendrickson types (a little short but athletic and tough and possessing great instincts) in this area that just need to be developed. I doubt anyone was jumping for joy when he committed but after a couple years they couldn't keep him off the field because he kept making plays and forced their hand. There are always Goertz type players coming out of Wisconsin and Edwards could be better than Boyle or Benjamin ever were if he can get their mental edge for understanding the game. I'm sure we miss on a player or two because of going elsewhere but we've seemed to have made up for it with players like Kuksa (hope he'll be ok) and Reyes and Norberg. It's not like we haven't hit on players from ND though. Iverson is a stud and Barton and Carr have started down the stretch.

Look at who was at LB in those games where we competed. Now look at LB. Same for DE. Also DT. Brock Bellmore was a brick wall against the run, he was super quick and was stronger than anyone he played against. Hendrickson Daniels Goertz were all good against the run and were bigger and more athletic than who we have this year. Benjamin was a beast and was smart so was Boyle. Throw in Hawkins and Belotti at safety who were good sized and could tackle and you've got what was a really good run defense. Their problem was they had the same corners we have this year.

tUMD @ UND - You should have hired Sandelin...

Its time for a disciplinarian coach with a defensive background and Midwestern recruiting pipelines that is an alpha dog again. Someone who's not afraid to trim ALL of the fat and nips things before they become a cancer. We don't need more of the same. I don't share all I've heard but I can't defend Mussman as a leader for this program any more, I just can't. The program deserves better.

They despised gemaldi tonight. He was our most physical by far.
-
They're gonna be pretty confused when they realize it counted.
-
These announcers really do suck
-
What? They said no goal and now it is?
-
Not so fast I guess. Still a good play
-
Nice play by gemaldi and cajewels
-
We scored but that was the worst 2 on 0 I've ever seen. I have no idea how Parks scored on that, it almost looked like an accident.
-
Easily the least physical UND team I've ever seen. I've yet to see Sioux hockey this season.
-
Ugly hockey by UND.
-
That is a fact.
-
That list is a joke NDSU is ranked 70th behind K State and other teams they would beat. Northern Colorado is not worse than Grambling or Savanah St.
-
Those are some ugly lines
-
After today it's hard not to look forward to what Golladay will become. He's only a true soph this season and has at times looked like a man amongst boys. He's going to be an all American candidate next year and will be thee guy. We need to make sure and not take him for granted, he's a special player.
-
These announcers are whiners.
-
Very
-
We still had under 20 without the sacks.

The funnier part is that he wears a c. The even funnier part is the announcers saying they wouldn't expect something like that from him.
