2014 Recruiting

[jdub27]

Sounds like UND has interest in Stanley Dubard out of Bakersfield, CA (RB/OLB)

Seems like UND also offered Luke Fiedler out of Orlando, FL (TE/DE)

[UNDBIZ]

I really think this kid should get a look from ND do you? Corey Harrison #73 OG/DT Class of 2014 Senior Highlight's @Hudl http://www.hudl.com/...ights/111533381

He certainly has size and he appears to have a good mean streak. I don't follow national recruiting much, but why would a kid from Arkansas, interested in playing for Arkansas and Mizzou, a pre-season second team all-senior selection, want to play FCS in the upper midwest?

If he actually does then that's great, but my troll sensors are tingling.

UND got a second commit - Drew Greeley DE out of Wayzata! Nice!

Appears he was the one from a couple weeks ago - but now confirmed on twitter!

EDIT: I should say that this was the one Kotelnicki referred to on twitter a couple weeks ago, but officially he committed today it looks like.

Lets hear an evaluation on this player. And Welcome Drew Greeley!!

[geaux_sioux]

Just watched his hudl. This kid is violent. Great hands and feet. Not super strong yet but fights off every block and uses his quickness as well as some very quick powerful hands. He's a bit of a tweener and it depends if we'll stay in the 3-4 or not. I like what I see from a purely competitive standpoint.

Awesome. He's a wrestler. Can't have enough good wrestlers on the defensive side of the ball. That explains the hands and footwork.

Have him call the football offices and talk to Cindy

[UND Fan]

Wiki is updated (to the best of my knowledge) but frankly, I am not working at it as hard as usual as the list will "start over" to a great degree in the next few weeks.

I did see that we had offered a DE out of Raytown South who has verballed to TCU.

[ericpnelson]

I'm perplexed but it's pretty cool. Looks great. Hopefully this just means he has his head in the right place and is picking a school, not a staff.

What about Wyoming?

mg2009 has been pretty quiet around here since, oh say, late Saturday afternoon.

Article on recruiting. http://www.grandforksherald.com/event/article/id/280101/group/homepage/

Greely said North Dakota was the first program to show interest in him during the process. Greely added that his sister already goes to UND and he likes the campus’ proximity to his home in the Twin Cities.

“I think a new coach only helps my decision because it’s a new start at everything,” Greely said.

Greely was named to the 2013 All-Metro football team by the Star Tribune. With the honor, the newspaper wrote that Greely was “fast and agile yet has immensely strong upper body. Moves well sideline-to-sideline, thanks to 4.7 40-yard speed.”

Doubtful for a handful of reasons, and especially since he's was a true freshman, he still has his redshirt year left that he can use while he sits out a year. He'll stay FBS.

A few more of our original offerees have made their decisions:

TE Kornack to IL St (they have gotten a bunch of kids that we had offered)

LB Rezin to Bryant

CB Rowe to USD

OT Fidler to Buffalo

[bincitysioux]

Losing recruits to USD is always a bit embarrassing.

Better times are ahead soon BCS.

So I'm getting sick of all the speculation about the new coach, who are our top recruits that we've offered that we need/can realistically get?

I don't know anything about any of these recruits. Obviously other subjects have dominated the board the past month. As usual I'd like to see some O-lineman but I really think we need a great running back. Miller is good but I really would like to see them land a standout. Of course Conerback is a hole on Defense that I also would like to see shored up. I didn't answer your question but its good to talk about something other than the coaching fiasco.

Without a coaching staff in place, there won't be much movement on the recruiting front.

Also, plenty of new offers will surface when the new staff is in place.

We have gotten as many commitments without a coach as we did with one... just sayin

I doubt we are going to get much in the way of "top recruits" this year. Between having a dismal 3-8 season and no coaching staff in place until next year, I think it's safe to say we aren't looking at anyone exceptional. That has to change next year.
