This kid reminds me of a Flava Flav song.

It's in the range of 1-2 years up to infinity.

I don't get the warm fuzzies looking at the roster. Reading the puff piece helps a little, but I am a little worried at this point. We need a bunch of good things to go our way this spring into fall camp. 1. need a Stud QB to emerge 2. Will Otis be eligible? That would help a lot at RB. Small and quick, potential game breakers.......but most teams have game breakers at RB. 3. At D-line. Is bigger big enough? A lot of unknowns, but some should break in a good way. 4. Excited about Ventrelli at 300 lbs, super athletic out of High School. Can Hergel, Tobin, Nguon, Waletzko make us pretty tough up front? 5. Can Krzanowski make the jump and be productive at LB? We have an interesting mix of old and new at LB. Rastas bulked up to 2010 with a 5lb weight in his drawers. Geier is off the roster, what a disappointment he was. 6. Corners look to be salty 7. Hopefully the new kid helps at Safety, Wilcoxen. Koshiol runs well, too. 8. WR - we look pretty bad or should I say thin here. Maag......Brockstar..........................Cochran.........then pretty much crickets after that. Tough to run 4 wide with 2.5 proven wide-outs. 9. TE's suffered the Rudy Hangover last year. I know we are high on Riviere. Super Stud Game Changers - Maybe Jaxon Turner, Evan Holm I just don't see the high end game changers..... We'll see what Spring Ball looks like!!

ahhh What!!! His 3rd down announcement is epic!!!

I just hope he shows up. Canadians are shooting about 50/50 on making it to GF.

Ethan Ball - I liked his hudl!! Runs well, good instincts.

1. I don't think he shorted himself, that's the normal height of DII offensive lineman. 2. Without huge productivity from the squatty tackle (1 tackle per game) is Makota the next fold in local college football? 3. UM-Crookston and St. Cloud St. must now be 2nd guessing themselves. 4. Ben Newman is smiling about his new assistant......all that sh_t was getting heavy. 5. Entz wanted a body double on the team to live vicariously through.

The suspense was killing me, 15 tackles last season!! I'm most impressed by his sack against UM-Crookston. I heard it was epic.

Let's have jerseys that keep shoulder pads in to start.

I think the kid has a shot to play.

Too bad for you- Makes sense that Mankato is developing and stockpiling Division I talent, only to transfer out. This guy is the Gopher D-line nut job all over again, only shorter with more tattoos. Midget wresting could still be an option for him.

I actually see a 5'11" turd that likes to celebrate plays he should be making. Put me down as a hard pass.

The Northern?? Just a guess.

8 of 9....ya, it's a little anticlimactic following FCS football these days. I haven't watch a final for 4 years now. You can only watch Forest Gump 3-4 times then it gets a little old.

I bet the fans were oh so gracious. I saw many SU fans hugging and consoling JMU fans. Just so heart warming to see this.

A big challenge for Holinka. I am going on record as a bit of a doubter. If he were a beer it'd be called Schmitty Lite.

Let me spend my day tracking him down to relive the night....... Bison win again......so friendly.

I guess knowing the region manager isn't good enough.........

Except when the Jacks beat you guys a few years back......then opposing fans get punched and thrown out of the bar at BWW. I know it was just a few dip smacks and alcohol on both sides, but seriously, it could not be easier to be gracious when you hardly ever lose a game.

My honest assessment - Either some of these programs do cheat, and/or some have the resources and personnel to do things different, but within the rules. Do we have a University that follows what everyone else does, or do we dare to have our own identity? I hope Chaves is starting to pull this all together. I like these lines in bold- Virtually everything you need as an athlete can be obtained through proper nutrition and a proper speed and strength program which should be designed for the specific needs of each individual athlete.........President/Dean Wynne, Chaves, Drs Mann and Greek, our Athletic trainers, Poolman, Baukol(sp), the head of our food service, the head of our Dietetics program, the Dept head of Physical therapy, Dept head of Occupational therapy, Dept head psychology and every one of our coaches should have a meeting to identify the needs and wishes of our teams/athletes. (If we do crack the code, why share it with the entire country, though?) Sometimes I wonder what the hell these University staff are there for. ( I wonder this all the time!!)

We need our own magic potion, whether it's how we train, how we eat, how we supplement. Some team in FCS has it figured out and the 3 items mentioned above are pretty well kept secrets. I of course know about them. One of them was almost exposed, they are fairly open about how they specify diets for individuals, and their training toes the line of NCAA guidelines. Time to really take notice in Grand Forks and tweak some things. Does anyone think teams like NDSU in FCS and Clemson, Bama, Ohio St are squeaky clean and/or followers? Nope, they do what they think will get Ws, rules are just a little nuisance to work around. Not bashing, but admiring.

I got thru half of it, need a Klondike Bar!!

I will turn off the game when the Bobcats get down 21, probably in the 2nd quarter.

You can pass when ahead. If a coach is overly concerned about perception rather than preparing a team for a Section title, just start the game airing it out. Go for 22 completions and call it the catch 22 plan. Then, being concerned what others think, piss pound your opponent on the ground to finish the game. With Isaiah, prior to the acl/mcl injury I thought he looked FCS ready with the only missing component being top end speed, which normally can be improved in college. His injury, most times or every time, affects speed. So, really sucks for him. I am not sure he can get back to FCS level. With a good recovery, he should walk on at UND or he could probably play D II.

Could have used a passing game in the playoffs. Our WRs could not grasp simple concepts, never got the experience during the year. When needed, didn't have it. That's my biggest gripe with riding one player for 2 years.
