One of the high end 2008s from the Dub. Carels, Lin, Rudolph, Preston, Ruck Twins. 

Will probably end up being some high end 3 star/low end 4 star Minnesotan though.

Undersized center that plays very physical and wins a ton of draws.

Bryn and Smaby must have loved him at Waterloo. 

[The Sicatoka]

Had he re-opened recruiting?

Good call.

The bat signal has officially retired. What a run. Probably for the best, though.

Oh no! I was really getting into this way of announcing recruits. Can he reconsider?

I don't get this decision. Why end something that generates a ton of buzz for your program on social media and excitement among your fans?

Maybe he is planning on doing a different GIF moving forward?  His tweet just said that the GIF was being retired.
Who knows.
I'll guess we'll see if anything is mentioned when DuPont commits.

With Schultz likely coming in next year I'm curious if UND designated at least 2 players as "cut" players that are grandfathered in and don't count against the 26 man scholarship roster?

If they were to do it to try and gain max roster flexibility I'm assuming they'd pick one sophomore D and one sophomore forward. That way they'd in theory be able to have 28 players on teams for at least 2025, 2026, and 2027. (then by the time 2028 arrives who knows, roster limits could be expanded by then anyway - 26 is a slim roster if your team gets banged up throughout the year)

This kid sounds like a guy you want on your team.

Brock Nelson, Brock Boeser, Brock Schultz. Pretty sure he's destined for greatness.
