My source down in Davies told me that NDSU is going after the Hartness boys now. Been in school a couple times and are trying to get them to flip. Nice of NDSU to start recruiting the kids on January 25th, really shows you want them.
We officially got a walk-on battle royale.
We will have troops in the ring tonight in Fargo--- I have a front row view. The Davies coach is a former UND WR, if that helps or not.
There is a scholarship battle with another recruit, coaches made a special trip to his house across a couple state lines.
This last week is a tough one, batten down the hatches!!
-
Poole just tweeted his commitment to UND
This guy is a player......not sure the 4.4 forty is true but he looks good.
-
Good for you... 4 of the ND kids that NDSU targeted were Johanasson, Brooks, Robbins & Grady. WIth 30 scholarships to hand out 2 straight years hard to compete with that amount of money for some kids. Ellefson is the real deal and has an offer from Purdue. A lot of our class have FBS offers so our class is shaping up just fine. As far as PWO no FCS team develops them as well as NDSU.
Were does Ellefson play? 4.85 forty and not overly strong.....maybe redshirt and work on his speed/strength for TE? My dad is from Hawley so he's taking an interest to Ellefson. The guy I think is scary for SU is the WR from the private school in MN......I forget what private school.
-
Ben Ellefson was dominating class A competition........I think he has a lot to prove/learn given the talent level SU has. If he was dominating class 4A or 5A that would be different. Just saying.
-
I would expect quite a few shirts to be pulled if this class is as good as it appears to be.
WR Dulin could play right away, too.
-
Same applies DL
I think DL is a little more critical than ILB, we could use another big body up front on D. LBs are a little bit interchangeable, but it doesn't matter how good they are if the front 3 don't hold up. Our biggest concerns next year are QB play and the D-line holding up.
Oliviara and Santiago play right away and 2-3 secondary guys won't redshirt. (Smith, Carter, Hilton). Watch out, the secondary could be pretty good next year, with depth.
-
I'm not giving up on Sharp yet. He's young. He needs to learn patience and get stronger. He shows good burst and feet. He just needs time.
Going into his Sophomore year........this would be a good time for 10lbs of muscle before fall.
-
It seems to me that Oliveira can probably do everything Norberg can do in terms of physical running, and he also adds more elusiveness and probably more speed.
Yep, but knowing the offense and picking up the blitz and other nuances may take a few games for Oliveira. Norberg has game experience and spring ball which will give the coaches a certain comfort level.
-
So who all do we have at RB right now Arrington, Simmons (if he is cleared to played), Oliveira ... who am I missing? And who would be projected to get the heaviest load?
As it sits right now I expect Arrington to get 65-70% of the carries to start the year. Norberg and Oliveira to split the rest with a splash of Santiago and Georges. As the season goes on Oliveira will get more carries and if Arrington and Oliveira stay healthy they split carries evenly or coaches give a few more carries to the hot back on a per game basis. I think Norberg could he used as a fullback type if not needed at RB. I would love to see Simmons and Sharp in the mix but I am counting Simmons out with injury and Sharp as too average to play.
-
Bubba and Bohl need to make a gentleman's agreement in that 1) Wyoming grants the release 2) Bubba doesn't travel him against Wyoming. Problem solved. For a guy like Bohl, who makes a living, really good living, off of college athletes, to robb a kid of his junior year is classless. I am really questioning Bohl as a man........

Anyone know if Simmons applied for or is able to receive a medical hardship for last year? Only played in a game & a half. Was injured in 2nd qtr of R. Morris game.
He did apply, he has a good case, but might be a moot point.
-
You're correct. Once the clock starts they have 5 years to use up to 4 years of eligibility. I believe that there is an exemption for religious mission trips such as the 1 1/2 to 2 year trips that Mormons often take while in college, and for service in the military.
Thanks to all for the info. on eligibility.
About Simmons........he could be done, Drs. won't clear him to play, last I heard.
-
So that would make him a JR in 2015.
An athlete loses a year of eligibility not being in a program?? His 2014 year seems to be a mystery.
-
SFI is saying Georges will be a junior, so he may only have two years left.
Could be.....it said he redshirted in 2012, played in 1013, and last year wasn't in a program, though. I am not sure-
-
UND press release, including the WYO transfer & 2 from DII.
Information overload. What is missing is the eligibility-
Georges - 3 years eligibility
Neverman - 2 years eligibility
Johnson - 2 years eligibility
Knick - must burn a year and then have 3 years eligibility
Galkoski - has a redshirt to take and then 2 years eligibility
Anyone know different??

http://www.grandforksherald.com/sports/und-football/3660425-und-football-und-addresses-receiver-need This stuff is what I'm asking for! Foot in mouth...
Two words about recruiting-
Playing Time!!
-
Absolutely.
No reason the coaches shouldn't give Heidlbaugh a chance to play QB during his redshirt season. Development and teaching is key to this team having a bright future anyways. If it doesn't work then move him to TE.
Where is the video on him, Heidlbaugh?
-
If we don't offer Trey Anderson I will be beside myself.... He's an obvious D1 QB who would be out of our grasp had he not gotten injured.
So the assumption is Heidlbaugh is not QB material?? I think the coaching staff is trying to decide this, too. Maybe give the kid a chance to throw some balls around on scout team and redshirt, what the hell.
We have Joe and Ryan (Jr. season) and Keaton (Soph. season) heading into this year. Joe is recovering from his surgery and Ryan is recovering from hurt feelings when Keaton started the last 3 games last year. So, the situation isn't very comforting depending on Joe being healthy and Ryan sticking around if Keaton emerges from Spring ball the starter, and can Keaton physically handle the hits over an entire season....... I see a lot of questions, would be good to bring in another QB based on uncertainty and lack of depth.
-
SFI's recruiting update was posted... http://siouxfb.areavoices.com/2015/01/19/recruiting-weekend-recap/
Looks like they have Santiago now projected as a WR. Confirmed Austin Smith did not sign.
I like Santiago in space.....slot receiver that can also get a few carries either on end around, zone read, or mis-direction. I think it's a really good move to utilize a weapon. (Percey Harvin type position player......without the headaches and crappy attitude)
-
My son is Kevin Camy....number 70 next season....
6-5 320. Run blocking is his forte.....pancake blocker.
2 year starter at Butte JC. Natonal champions in 2013.
He will ball for UND.....look forward to all the games this year.
Look forward to meeting some of you guys at home and on the road.....
Thanks for coming to the forum, we look forward to your insight. Kevin should benefit greatly being with the team already. I like the o-line coach a lot, he is in good hands.
-
So a max class consists of 30 players doesn't it? Or did I just make that up in my head?
Technically, but since Hannibal and Sleight didn't show up last year I think this year 2 of the mid semester Jucos count on last years number. So could have 32 new faces for fall.
-
This staff is crushing recruiting this year. Carter has that first step and twitch that we need and also appears to have decent size for a corner. Palmborg looks like a solid player that could develop nicely.
Appears so- crushing it.
This class could snowball with a couple more big recruits seeing what we have done thus far. (Of course it all proves itself on the field)
-
Is this WR the kind of talent to come in and play immediately?
Sure- but has to earn it, catch the ball, run the right routs, block on the edges. We should actually have a real good competition at WR next year.
I need to dig a little on inside backer and QB position......seems like we need one of each this class still.
-
Tim Dulin has committed.
A 'Galloday' type WR was said by someone on staff. We'll see but definitely a smooth runner with good size.

These kids are down to earth, want to win, want to play. The one twin carried Davies last night in hockey over South with 2 goals. I think the PWO verbal with UND is pretty solid.
