SIOUXFAN97 Posted January 9, 2014 Posted January 9, 2014 Any prior coaching experience? no coaching experience but he played four years at wyoming and was one of their best players...he is a beast and wouldn't mess around with guys that don't wanna play 1 Quote
geaux_sioux Posted January 9, 2014 Posted January 9, 2014 Mason Kramer, from Bishop Ryan. Kolten Larson from MHS, both guys seem like they would be walk on potential. I saw where the Kramer kid took 2nd in State at heavy weight in wrestling. It was his 1st year ever of wrestling. Might make a good NG in the 3-4? Hell yea, I love having wrestlers in the front 7.

Csonked Out Posted January 9, 2014 Posted January 9, 2014 Hell yea, I love having wrestlers in the front 7. As do I...usually means the hands and feet are quick. Something that doesn't apply to many of our linemen currently. Quote
geaux_sioux Posted January 9, 2014 Posted January 9, 2014 As do I...usually means the hands and feet are quick. Something that doesn't apply to many of our linemen currently. And understanding leverage is key in addition to the feet and hands. Quote
Sioux Nation Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 Above all else this is what I am looking forward to seeing. The drops the wide receivers had the last couple years drove me up the wall and were usually drive killers. I am willing to give away some explosiveness for a couple receivers who can consistently catch the ball. I couldn't agree more! My understanding is that Schluesner had a serious love affair with Jackson, Galladay, and Townsend. Harden has always had his share of drops but he does have the most big play potential. Jackson not only had drops, but some very untimely drops. Galladay, who was known as the guy who catches everything had a tough year as well. The problem was that Schluesner wouldn't make a change. The kid I heard about two years ago was Casey Young who really hasn't seen the field. I watched him in Spring Ball and assumed he would be starting. Obviously this year has some changes coming at WR. I agree with others that Carr has some potential but we'll see coming off his redshirt. It seems like they may need to bring in some juco WR's to compensate for the defections. We should be solid at TE and with a new coach we may even actually throw a pass to a TE next season! Quote

siouxjoy Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 we may even actually throw a pass to a TE next season! Well, now that's just crazy talk... Quote
darell1976 Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 Well, now that's just crazy talk... Who was our TE last season? Quote
The Sicatoka Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 Who was our TE last season? We had a TE? Quote
sioux24/7 Posted January 11, 2014 Posted January 11, 2014 Freund is sitting with the new coaches at the Betty. I'm guessing he will be retained. Quote

Laker Posted January 11, 2014 Posted January 11, 2014 Nice to see the new football coaches at the basketball game. I like when coaches and players show support for their fellow programs. Quote
Westside Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 SiouxFootballInsider @SiouxFootball 5m Got an inkling that the newest member of UND's offensive staff is coming from the Gophers. Chatter on Twin Cities radio this morning. Quote

Players like Kramer, Cieslak, and Chrest. Quote
gfhockey Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 be awesome if he was special teams coach but him and schimdt would probably but heads. highly unlikely he comes back if this woulda happened earlier he woulda been the head coach Quote
Sioux Nation Posted January 13, 2014 Posted January 13, 2014 Don't forget about McGill! Great point! I sure hope he is able to bounce back and play. The TE group is very young. Stockwell is a giant and pretty darned athletic. Adler is another big, strong kid. Speaking do staff, it looks like WR coach is a position they haven't filled yet right? Quote

ericpnelson Posted January 13, 2014 Posted January 13, 2014 So any speculaiton on who the new addition is going to be? I have no idea... I looked at their coaches and couldn't find anyone who was in Southern Illinois after 2007. I'm not seeing a clear connection. Quote
Nodak78 Posted January 13, 2014 Posted January 13, 2014 I have no idea... I looked at their coaches and couldn't find anyone who was in Southern Illinois after 2007. I'm not seeing a clear connection. Kostich is from Moorhead. Only connection I see, just to get closer to home. Quote
Westside Posted January 13, 2014 Posted January 13, 2014 Kostich is from Moorhead. Only connection I see, just to get closer to home. I did listen to part of the WCCO podcast from Sunday w/ Jerry Kill. He mentioned that he just helped Shawn Kostich get a full-time coaching position but could not say where it was at this point. (About the 13:00 mark of this link...) http://minnesota.cbs...s&dcid=CBS.MINN WARNING: You will have to listen to Sid Hartman. Also, Kostich's dad was longtime Moorhead High coach & is now OC at Concordia. Quote

Norby Mathewson and Ruhe are the other TEs with Adler. Quote

Also, Kostich's dad was longtime Moorhead High coach & is now OC at Concordia. Certainly appears that Kostich will be coming to UND as an assistant. He worked on both sides of the ball at Minnesota, most recently on defense. I can see him being an offensive position coach or special teams coordinator. I guess LB coach is possible too, but Eric Schmidt might coach that group along with his DC duties. Quote
bincitysioux Posted January 13, 2014 Posted January 13, 2014 Per Football Scoop: North Dakota: Sources tell us Minnesota defensive grad assistant Shawn Kostich will be the new special teams coordinator at UND. Quote
geaux_sioux Posted January 13, 2014 Posted January 13, 2014 Per Football Scoop: He's really young..... Reeeeeaaly young....... Anyone know anything about him? Would he be ready for this? Quote
