I'm not sure what happened to this kid in recruiting. It's an inexact science and this is a great example of that fact. When I saw his film I thought he was an awesome player with elite awareness and thought he was getting a scholarship. When I found out he was a walk on I was a bit confused but still very excited that he chose us. I think other coaches know or at least have a sense of how hard schools are going after certain kids. For whatever reason this one fell through the cracks and into our laps.

You're looking at it wrong, the only reason he didn't get a scholarship offer is because of his relative demand. If other schools weren't going to offer him and UND knew it than they can get two good players by using the scholarship on someone else and still get Schobert as a walk on especially since it's FCS and there are lower scholarship amounts

Fall camp is just around the corner. I can't wait to see this team in action. I was excited last year but its ten fold this time around with all of the new players and new things with the football program.

All they need to do to that video to put it over the top is to add in some effects and slow motion and youd have an excellent video

Dwayne looked special last fall so hopefully he's healthy and improved. I'm thinking all Brown CB and Mackey getting nickel reps

Nice to see effort being put into football. One step in the right direction. The hype snowball is rolling down the slope and picking up speed.

I'm not sure why but I get a gut feeling that he'd make an outstanding safety

Buy or sell darryl brown as the only returning starter at DB this year?

That sounds good for team chemistry

More of a classic h back

Buy or sell a surprise starter emerging in fall camp such as Zach adler at TE

Samsrams trumps NDSU official

It was confirmed by teh samsrams which is a level about NDSU official

weird, teh samsrams reported he verbaled. Since he's never wrong I assumed that was as good as a signed NLOI.

How's your prised recruit of 2012 Marcus Horne doing? Do you think he'll be able to replace DJ?

Different situation. One is an imature kid that couldn't make up his mind the other is a diamond in the rough who showed his stuff and is now a hot commodity.

Right... And I'm sure Johnson Hall is just as crazy as the ones at UND. As someone who partied at both school I consider NDSU parties to be like JV compared to what I experienced in Grand Forks. It's not even close. Back to recruiting. You lose.

Nope it was an offer from NDSCS, just another case of NDSU getting confused with a superior school by the media. Still haven't beaten those guys out on a recruit.....

I'm curious to see if they would try him out at safety.

When you're desperate you're desperate

There's a camp this week. Maybe we get one from that

Any info on who is trying to get him late?

The football team obviously needs a new intro video and song, I'm wondering if anyone has some good ones. Here are a few I think the players would get jacked up from

Screw whoever is trying to steal him. If they could spot a good recruit in the first place like us it wouldnt be a.problem
