Parkers Pros

Far as back up QB is concerned, we don't know what we have in Heidlebaugh or Bolinski and we have another year of Studsrud. As far as the Tebow comment for Heidlebaugh, forgive me if I'm wrong, but Tebow was one of the winningest quarterbacks in college football history, and he was more athlete than QB. And this is college FCS. He'd have to hand the ball off, and be a threat with his arm and feet, but ultimately we rise and fall with the OL and RB's. That is our game. I don't care if Heidlebaugh wind mills to throw it, so long as he can do that and be effective, who cares what he looks like doing it! Heidlebaugh is an athletic kid that they could mold into anything, and they are keeping him at QB, what does that tell you? We either trust the coaches or we don't?? Wait another year on Bolinski, perhaps a year in the offense and the weightroom and he challenges for the #2.

That video is great. Needs a little sound tweaking but would love some back stories into the world of some of these guys just like TTD with hockey. Keep it going!

I don't think Joe fits Coach Rudy's offense. Studsrud is the prototypical hybrid duel threat that is required. Heidlebaugh is a better athlete than Joe at this point. He's one of the better athletes on the field anyway. I feel bad for Joe because I liked him behind center. It appears that Heidlebaugh will get a shot until the kid from the Cities is ready or Bolinski blows up next year. And Brad H could be very good. It's just uneasy when you don't know what he brings yet. But I remember how we felt when Studsrud was brought in as a freshman. The sky was falling! The coaches see something in Brad H, in Bubba we must trust!

To me Heidlebaugh looks like Keaton did as a freshmen. I think Heidlebaugh looks like he has better down the field ball skills at this stage. Given reps would probably be fine.

Stop the thread by not commenting. Let this die. Dudes an assclown. Move on. By spending any time on this just lends him credibility!

Jordan Schmaltz was quoted as saying that his advice to Nick will be to stay.

A little surprised that since we have a Cirrus plant in town they wouldn't go that way. I drive past it every day.

Everyone is jumping off the bridges already. For one thing our defections are higher because we had a lot of wheat to separate from the chaff. We are a run first offense. This is why when Golladay for instance found out that the new coaches new offense was going to be rebuilding behind a run first offense and an unproven QB he went somewhere he could get 10 looks a game. Same with Jackson. Grady was a one off. I know we have had some others but none that are irreplaceable. Have a little faith. We have a solid starting QB, the best running back in the Big Sky arguably the best in FCS. And let's not forget both Oscar N and Brady O backing him up who both could probably start anywhere else. Can already see coach Rudy splitting Santiago out wide to get him out in space or running a two back double headed monster! With run/throw options. I agree the o-line is a question mark but give them a few games. We have receivers that can stretch the field. Smith is a loss. But his loss will not spell doom for us! In Bubba We should trust!!

During the Wentz interview you could see Ratelle running drills behind him.

Glad to see the excitement on here. Passion for football at UND again. Great job Bubba and crew. Very proud of the job you guys have done. Bring it home tomorrow boys! Brick by brick!

Funny how some are freaking out about this. I have heard Heidlebaugh has looked solid. More athletic than Bolinski. Another year in the system. If Studs gets hurt, should be in capable hands.

His dad was a hell of a Sioux football player. Maybe doesn't want to deal with the shadow! He's a nice kid and nice family, too bad!

His film looks great. Solid athlete, great hitter. Closing speed, looks like a great linebacker or even strong safety!

Cause for concern they are leaving and coaches are advertising for walk on's for WR on Twitter?

Any word on any of the Freshman QB's?
