Well we know Rebraca's reason, he has been very clear on that. If his grad program was in-person at UND, he would still be here.

Mods, can you change the thread title to show that the game is at noon today, not 1?

Under further review, I believe you are correct.

UND needs this one on Saturday. To get back on track To finish the season with a winning conference record. Beat the Bison for the first time in 5 tries. It is time to claim the state back.

This is a very good class that is coming in that, when added to this freshman class, is beginning to build another core. These two will address many of the weaknesses that the current squad has. More shooting and athleticism. Now lets get them on campus and see what they can do.

Yes. It is a steal.

UND got their guy. Brings some much needed athleticism to the table

Don't know if he has put on weight. More defensive ready than offense. (which isn't a bad thing)

Now.. if there is a commit coming soon, that will be it for open scholarships as of right now. This week, we might have an idea on if any extra scholarships become available based on who gets honored on Senior Day alongside Panoam. Igbanugo and Sueker both have decisions on their extra year that they need to make.

I'm sure we will hear soon on who committed.

So if you want to know the path that UND needs to follow in order to make Sioux Falls, here is the "simpliest" path 1) Win against St. Thomas 2) Omaha loss to WIU 3) KC loss to USD 4) ORU loss to SDSU 5) UND beats NDSU 6) Omaha loss to UST 7) KC loss to SDSU 8) ORU loss to USD Result: tied with Omaha with the 8th spot. They both split and then goes to record against other opponents. Since NDSU finished ahead of KC in the standing, UND would win the tiebreaker. Problem? That is a LOT that has to go right between tomorrow and Saturday.

You are correct that he is also the leading rebound (a little under 6 rebounds a game). An offseason to work on his consistency on the offensive end (and get that 3 point shooting north of 40%) and his defense... Look out

UND couldn't sustain a full 40 minutes against a good ORU squad and find themselves going into the final week of the season, more than likely not going to the Summit League Tournament. It would take several things happening in order for them to make it. While there hasn't been too many positive this season, one bright spot has been the play of freshman Paul Bruns, who already had put his name in the UND records books so far this season. Right now -His 71 3 pointers is currently tied for 10th all time in a regular season -His 188 3 point attempts is currently in 8th all time in a regular season -His 82% free throw percentage is currently 10th all time in a regular season There is one more record that is within his reach. The freshman scoring record. This record was set two years ago by DAE. He currently has 441 points. The record is 454, so he needs 14 points to break the record. Unless the weather or injury play a role, he should be breaking this record in this game. It has been an impressive season so far and his future is very bright at UND. For St. Thomas: There certainly have been some successes and some growing pains in their first year at the divsion 1 level, but they want to end the year with a bang. They have 3 winnable games coming up and they could end the season on a high note if they can win a couple of them. Their futures are also very bright with a great coach and a great recruiting class coming in next year. It will intersting to see their growth in year 2. In this game, abnormal start time because this is a makeup game. UND should be able to win this one and techincally keep their season alive for at least 2 more days. Radio for sure, but not sure if there will be TV.

He would be able to do both. Can play and guard multiple positions. Would add some much needed athleticsm He does need to add to his frame a little bit.

Has the team hit a wall?

Anybody know what happen to Hoskin and why she is out?

Needed to put on some weight but think he is more defensive minded post player IIRC.

McGrath

87-73 ORU Final just didn't have it in the last 10-12 minutes

I believe Mathews can be that person after an offseason of work.

By the way: Bruns is 13 points away from breaking the freshman scoring record at UND.

Bruns 82-69 ORU

Get an electric PG with Eaglestaff and UND is in business.

78-63 ORU 4:05 to go

ORU pulling away played well for 30 minutes.
