Why do you come here?

Potential WR to target? Had 32 catches for 422 yards and 25 carries for 152 yards his RS Freshman season at SIU. Entered the portal today.

5-6 FBS transfers on the defensive side and 2-3 on the offensive side. Doesn’t have to be the entire roster like some of you seem to fear, but it does have to be guys that are committed to winning.

I agree but that’s gotten UND nowhere in the playoffs so far. Hopefully the new staff can turn one of the QBs into the best player on the offense. A transfer at very least could bring in some competition

If you bring in the right transfer at QB, it can completely change your season for the better. This happens so often in college football these days. Hopefully Schmidt can find someone to come in and be a playmaker right away.

I was trying to think of the past 5 years haha those are some good ones! And Clive Georges

Because they haven’t brought in that many. James Johannesson, McNaboe, Jeff Griffen are a few I can think of. They’ve had good luck with FCS guys (Hoosman, Buckner) but last year went away with going after FBS and FCS guys for the most part

I have no affiliation to the 1883 Collective, but I do see right now as a massive opportunity to help Schmidt bring in some FBS transfers with the help of NIL money. You can select the sport where you want your money to go to, and your donation will be matched until December 15th. Can be a one time donation (toward the bottom of the donation page) or membership. I think the last “Lets Help Bubba” campaign on here raised like $12k in just a few days. Let’s help Schmidt!

Bama has 10 guys in the portal already. Would think between Washington, San Diego State, or even Bama, there’d be a couple of guys that are looking for playing time. Hopefully, those guys are on the DL, LB, or WR. One can hope!

Been at northern Illinois for a while.

Wonder if he’ll try to bring back Jordan Gigli?

Momentum is building!

And donations are being matched until December 15th so you can double your donation

Exciting times for UND football: - A great new leader who is less than a year removed from being a coordinator in the FBS national championship game - All new facilities connected to apartments via walkway so you can live and train without going outside - NIL, Alston $, etc. - Brand new business school, Memorial Union, and so on - Enrollment expected to hit all time high next fall

WR:

LB:

Has to be some Washington and San Diego guys that Schmidt can bring in to improve the roster. just going to throw some in this thread. edge:

Schmidt would be a home run hire IMO. Winner as a player, has worked his way up consistently in coaching, almost winning a natty last year, and has coached under some really great coaches. Hopefully he can bring some coaches or players from the past few years in!

You could say that’s “cap”

No idea if he applied, but I hope our head coach is announced after today’s game vs Tarleton State

Freuchte seems like a great leader and coach. I liked his play calling this season, but it would be a little odd to hire the second choice at OC after Danny left… and following a losing season.

Go get this guy:
