Ok. That makes sense. I was ahead by a year. I think that 2003 team beat a Warroad team that won state.
-
Was 2003 when they lost to Grafton?
-
Pretty big fail here since I was not the one to say that. The count is 0-1.
-
2004 I think. They played and beat up a very good Warroad team that year.

This is the last time I'm responding to you on this because it's becoming very apparent that you lack the requisite ability to comprehend what you read which is important when trying to make a point. I did not say he was an awful football player, kid, athlete, or fit. What I said was that he has awful mechanics. I complimented the kid on literally everything except his mechanics. Strong arm, mobile, tall, big frame, quick feet, toughness and qualities of his. The main point in my post was that he could end up at UND because of his mechanics and we would reap the benefits. In no way shape or form did I shred this kid, he's a good player and I hope we get him. If he had nothing to work on he'd be playing in the SEC and would be the 1st overall pick three years later. God forbid someone would dare to say he has anything that isn't perfect. There's nothing wrong with being honest.

Props to him, it's amazing how well he has developed since he last played for Central. It'll be great to have a bunch of local talent on the team again.
-
Buy. Buy or sell our coaching staff being stacked with young coaches who are great recruiters and are full of passion for UND and restoring the program to its former glory.
-
It's a numbers game, there are too many good football players out there for FBS schools to get them all. Also we have some coaches on staff who can really recruit. I'm not a huge fan of the whole rivals stars thing though, Golladay had none and is lightyears ahead of a 2 star WR in Fletcher. Our coaches have been finding some diamonds in the rough. By the way, I love the pic, Muhammad Ali is my favorite athlete of all time.

The problem is you haters are acting like I'm talking about your little Johnny who can do no wrong and is the best. Also you guys are being very selective in what you read. My critique of the Wilke kid was actually really positive and I said he has the potential to be great, but since I said the poor kid needs to work on a couple things I'm an ass hole with delusions of grandeur. Right...
-
Look at those guys mechanics. Neither are ideal. Luckily they're both young and will be able to make them better. I don't get why people get so upset about a critique about mechanics. They're important for a qb but don't tell the whole story. It's between the ears that's most important as is the case with every position. Mechanics are very important though and when coupled with other great attributes you get great things like with Warren Moon and Joe Montana. A good example of a guy that didn't have ideal mechanics is Steve Young. Worked out just fine for him but cases like his are the minority.

Sell ill go with a large capital A.
-
Buy. Already happened. Or do you mean starting now? Ill buy 2-1 start for now.... Maybe ill change my mind later. Buy or sell the online improving immensely due to an overall upgrade in athleticism.
-
Interesting. I don't recall saying he has an 'awful' arm and 'can't throw in a windy stadium'. You must have read that somewhere else. What I did say was that his mechanics are awful, not his arm. I also said that his awful mechanics could lead to inconsistent throws from time to time which in a windy environment would not be good. Never said he can't throw in a windy stadium. I honestly think that the coaches are so pleased with Mollberg and Bartels that finding another Braden Hanson is the last thing on their mind.
-
Go back and read my post. Then make corrections since you see some holes. Also notice the reason i stated for not wanting him to come to und was because of team chemistry not his ability.
-
Since I have no clue on the subject feel free to correct my points instead of offering nothing.
-
That's more like it

1. His mechanics are awful. He throws like Sammy Baugh, only problem is Slingin Sammy was slingin a glorified rugby ball with how the old football were shaped and actually finished his motion with his wrist. 2. I'm actually well versed on how to throw a football and can actually spin it pretty well myself. I also know the advantages of a good release point and a quick wrist flick vs a push where the shoulder inefficiently moves ahead of the rest of the arm (which is terrible for your shoulder) and makes the ball come out low and easy to block. 3. His yards were impressive. He also plays in a spread em out pass happy system where everyone gets yards. We run a different offense, even though we now spread it out more than ever we still take plenty of snaps under center. 4. Back to mechanics. Tight mechanics means more consistency on the spiral and trajectory of the ball, which is very important when playing at Montana Montana St and Eastern Washington where wind is a factor and a tight spiral can cut through the wind. When he winds the ball up below his belt he's basically asking a DE to have it. There should never be an initial downward motion by the shoulder when starting a throw, it wastes an incredible amount of time (just ask Tim Tebow) and makes it harder to throw with touch since it makes it harder to finish with the wrist. 5. Finishing with the wrist. Lunt doesn't do it. It's hard on the shoulder and makes the release point low. The release point should be at least at the crown of the head and that's as low as it should be. 6. He's shown considerable durability concerns. Doesn't matter how good he is if he's watching from the sidelines. Now I never said he wasn't good and couldn't win the starting job at UND. I just voiced concern over red flags and the all important team chemistry.
-
I wouldn't want him because it would be bad for team chemistry. Also his mechanics are god awful. I'm not sure how someone with a long sloppy motion could be ranked so high other than his being 6'5" and having an above average arm in terms of strength. Mollberg and Bartels are the future and the future is bright.
-
I don't think we have as many walk ons this year so the chances are more slim.
-
Versatility as in some passes were good and others were awful?
-
I think bring em all in and if one or two of the guys we already have get beat out then its better for the team. Maybe it'll be a good thing to have a ton of competition for the 6 d spots instead of how it was this year where it took monumental failures on the ice to get scratched.
-
Is it normal to have 2 d men in suits every game? Also what will Panz's role end up being? He's the most skilled guy in the world and there are 4 very good fr coming in. It doesn't seem like a good situation for him. A positive though is that Mattson will have to regain his form and decision making or he'll be in a suit regularly since these new guys can all play right away.
-
Mattson to forward?
-
Because we need more overage Canadians
