twins15 Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 From the pre-game notes, it seems as though he is good to go TRAYLOR REGAINS ELIGIBILITY Senior Alonzo Traylor had to sit out the second semester of last year’s schedule, but worked hard in the classroom to regain his eligibility for the 2013-14 season. Traylor was starting to come into his own after eight games of last season, but poor academic performance cost him the second half of his first season at UND. Traylor had a double-double in what was his final game of the season in the Big Sky opener at Southern Utah (Dec. 18). He averaged 7.1 ppg and 5.0 rpg in just over 16 minutes per game. Not sure if he has some type of injury issue that kept him out of this one... but my impression is that he will be there and playing.

SWSiouxMN Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 A chat along time ago, Miller said that Traylor had a shoulder injury that kept him out of the scrimmage. Perhaps that was it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sioux2013 Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Can anybody comment on Traylor's situation? I entered this season assuming we'd have Brekke and Traylor. Apparently Brekke is done according to the info here. If Traylor is not going to be available as well, that changes expectations greatly. One game suspension only. We will have Schuler and Traylor for the remainder of the games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forksandspoons Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Anyone know the attendance record at the Betty? The ndsu game should be at capacity so I'm just curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forksandspoons Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Yes!!!! Hopefully he can contribute behind the three point line and be a solid defender. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UND Fan Posted November 22, 2013 Author Share Posted November 22, 2013 Per Wayne Nelson, NCAA has ruled that Stefan is eligible immediately. That is great news - I understand his reputation as a great shooter is warranted. Another new dimension - a taller weapon from the o/s that should be able to shoot over the taller guards we will face. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andtheHomeoftheSIOUX!! Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 What does this mean going into the FU game? Will he see some action? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dagger Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 So has anyone seen this Stefan play? How much will he contribute? Didn't look like he played a lot where he was before? Was there a reason for that? In other words how good is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sioux24/7 Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Boom! I am really happy about this! Will provide some good 3-pt shooting! Too bad he is not a big though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UND Fan Posted November 22, 2013 Author Share Posted November 22, 2013 So has anyone seen this Stefan play? How much will he contribute? Didn't look like he played a lot where he was before? Was there a reason for that? In other words how good is? I am quite sure the following is correct - feel free to point it out if I have anything wrong! He was very highly recruited out of HS and the sixth man on the LaSalle team that went quite a ways in the Dance a couple of years ago. He had some concussion issues and transferred to Green Bay to be closer to home. I am not sure what happened with him at GB last year but there was a coaching issue and five underclassmen left the team after the season. Apparently he can "light it up". Hopefully, we will see this happen as early as Sunday! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darell1976 Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 This is great news!!! I hope he kicks butt this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sioux2013 Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 This could be good news but dont get too excited yet. He has shot under 35% from three for his career and the most he has ever averaged is 4 pts/game. It's really a position (guard) we are already loaded at and does not help us one bit where we need help ( post). For him to get minutes then one or several of our other key players lose minutes. I believe it causes issues as well as potential answers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UNDsportsFANATIC Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Sioux2013....what are you talking about? What other "several key" players lose minutes? The Antwi's and Hobaugh's and Benton's of the world. Come on man! Why shouldn't we all get excited about someone that can contribute to us going to the dance. Ive noticed that it is pretty hard for you to be optimistic about this team. Are you even a fan? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bincitysioux Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 What does this mean going into the FU game? He's an experienced player, good shooter, and will provide quality depth. I assume it means that we will beat FU by even more than what I was already anticipating, which was already a lot........................... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sioux2013 Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 First line. This could be good news. However until I see what he brings versus what we have I will wait to make full judgement. Everyone got overly excited the same way about slamonson and calcaterra and look where we r with them. Also I am a huge fan of the 5 seniors we have had since their freshmen year and don't want to see any of them not playing huge minutes cause they are the one that brought us this far . I go to every home game and watch almost every road game via internet . Don't think u can say the same cause u r always asking what's going on. So yes I am a huge fan.

sioux24/7 Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 sioux2013 makes a good point that we should probably temper our expectations until we actually see what Stefan can do on the court. Just because he was a highly rated recruit doesn't mean anything, as we see with Calcaterra being a 3-star by most sites. I don't remember people being overly excited about Salmonson ever though. He looked the best out of our posts at that scrimmage a while back but that wasn't saying much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UND92,96 Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 I think it helps having another shooter. Whether he can be more than just a zone buster remains to be seen. With regard to the minutes of the seniors, if anything I think that class has been asked to play too many minutes their first three years due to the lack of depth the program had. That was one of the reasons I felt so strongly that Hooker should not red shirt. If Anderson and Webb had needed to play 34 minutes a game, I don't think that would have been a positive.

sioux24/7 Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 Former UND player, Josh Gentry is averaging 9.5 ppg with Cal State Fullerton. They crushed Montana State in their second game 84-55. I was pretty high on him when he came here but he and Antwi probably should have redshirted instead of playing right away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UNDsportsFANATIC Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 My point is that some guys are not and have not produced anything in 2, 3, 4 years. Why not be optimistic about a proven shooter who has D1 experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will never forget his dancing and that huge smile in the middle of the huddle prior to each game starting. Has great athleticism but just came to UND at a tough time to crack the lineup with this current senior class. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smoggy Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Currently according to ESPN, UND is 4th in nation in PPG and FG percentage. It's early, butI would not have guessed that before th e season when having to play UW and fu. And also our usual horrendous display from the free throw line which seems to have been corrected.
