OLINE70

Shep....none whatsoever. Truly enjoyed watching the squad on TV and online the entire season. I am a UND fan for life now. Regardless of how it worked out for my son. He was afforded a chance to receive a quality education and play some ball on the universities dime. That in itself is worth its weight in gold. I will be eternally grateful to Coach Bubba, Rudolph and Knauf for giving him a chance to play at the next level. For whatever reason? It did not work out. No harm. No foul. My son knew what was expected of him in the classroom and on the gridiron. I know he has done well in regards to his education. Apparently it just did not work out on the field. He was well aware of the implications of not competing at the expected high level of the coaching staff. I will look forward to watching the progress of this team in the coming years. IMO? They got railroaded by the playoff selection committee. I see/expect good things in the future for this team and look forward to watching some of the players and staff that Kevin has spoken so highly of. GO HAWKS!!!!!

Don't know if this is gonna work for Saturday's tilt but here it is....hopefully it does. http://live.tl/stream/1/13342/september-5-2015/ncca-college-football-ncaafb-north-dakota-und-vs-wyo-wyoming-cowboys.html

True. If that occurs? 3 step drops and quick slants by WRs will back them off in short order. Not a fan of 7 step drops and pocket passing. If they are jamming the line? Opens up quick safe passing lanes.

NDSU allowed 125 per game on the ground and 3.9 ypc. They can be run upon. Problem is their offense scored early and often. Forcing teams to go to air. Improve on that 3.9 ypc vs. them and UND MIGHT be in business. Equates to 3 carries. Move the chains.

Exactly. The way to beat the champs is to keep them off the field. Win time of possession. IMO....this is a huge mismatch and must be exploited. Steady dose of ground pound. D-line will tire after repeatedly getting pushed back. Hope the offense is patient because taking unnessary chances in the air diminishes chance of victory. Long drives and chewing clock in order in this game.

Key to this game is the line game. Every game actually. NDSU does not match up size wise with largest D-lineman checking in at 6-4 287. Everyone else is shorter and lighter. UND Offensive line: Aplin: 6 1 300 Boas: 6 1 315 Hellman: 6 4 290 Grady: 6 5 295 Miller: 6 5 315 Stiner: 6 6 280 Meehan: 6 5 315 Stockwell: 6 5 295 Taylor: 6 4 310 Merz: 6 6 275 Rooney: 6 3 275 Blair: 6 4 240 Camy: 6 6 305 Anderson: 6 6 310 Cox: 6 5 290 NDSU Defensive line: Butler: 6 3 221 Scheietz: 6 1 285 Messner: 6 3 278 Tuszka: 6 3 237 Steidl: 6 2 265 Jones: 6 3 209 Williams: 6 3 242 Menard: 6 2 220 Bremer 6 0 250 Ambrosius: 6 4 244 Morgan: 6 4 280 Farnlot: 6 1 280 Tanquay: 6 4 287 This is a favorable match up for UND and MUST be won by these guys. Win the line of scrimmage? Win the game.

Would agree with your statement but after daily drills, conditioning and lifting? Job one should be a well balanced gut fest. I know what I lived on at that age(think burgers/pizza) May be a bit pricey but I know he is eating 10 bucks worth!!! Glad to pay it to keep the weight on. Would it of been nice to have a training table? Hell yes....but alas they don't.

UND cafeteria is open for summer session. As long as you are a UND student/athlete you can eat there. Not a good time to be left trying to fend for yourself. 900 bucks for 85 all you can eat meals. Agree with your general premise however. These kids should be fed well and often.

I would say that is correct. Son flew home last day of finals. Reported back on 6/1/15 for what he calls voluntary/mandatory. Not a good move to skip ANY training time. Hard work pays off....

Driving out from California. Should be epic.... Would not miss it!!!! Also attending the Weber St., Portland St. and Cal Poly game. Wish I could make a home game but not in the cards this year.

For those attending today, would appreciate some live updates if possible. Was hoping for a live stream but guess that is not in the cards.

Is the scrimmage going to be live streamed or am I just going to have to settle for highlights?

Starts today....let the competition begin!!!!!

How bout innocent until proven otherwise. Rather get some facts on this incident before reaching any conclusion.

George thing is baseless. Not his issue. Non-player issue. So....nothing to see here.

After 7am your time....that is when you can starting faxing offers.

Not sure if recruits are gonna be announced personally. They will be showing highlights for sure. Told my son to attend away. Take it all in. Enjoy it. Told him to get out there and meet the fan base. You guys are really passionate about your team. That is a good thing!!!!

Anybody going to meet the recruits night this week at the home dome??

Sorry....just saying....this was on the official UND website.....beg pardon....

Kind of a crappy stat here (and I am not a negative Nancy) but only 16 players out of probably 120 could muster a 3.2 GPA last semester? Anyone else read that? Not liking that statistic.....Have to do better than that....

Thank you for the information......appreciate that......

Question.....do player's parents get tix to home and away games? Just asking.....

Little bit of insider report....don't know you guys yet but just basing this on my son's info..... He is liking it....says team is headed in right direction. One of the reasons he liked UND was the fact they were actively trying to get things squared up. I have no reason to doubt him....at this point? Enough said..... HARD WORK?? PAYS OFF!!!!!!!!

Gotta gut feeling this team is gonna be in the mix..... I know my son is armed and ready....likes what he sees and is ready to roll.... Says he has a good feeling about the entire overall experience so far.....bunch of lunch pail guys punching the time clock....

Just watched Hilton's Hudl film..... Young man is a baller.....nice pick up....looks like a guy that can instantly come in and start.....
