Should help special teams, assuming he beats out the other two. Maybe him and Mitch have an agreement to play every other year? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oxbow6 Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 So Grady was re-added to the roster late last month but was a no show at day 1 of camp so then Bubba announced he is no longer with the team. Got it......... Regardless of talent I hope Bubba let Grady know enough is enough and a line was drawn that his career at UND is done.

Hayduke Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 I keep reading these additions to the roster and thinking that new indoor practice facility is a huge part of UND's future success. I finally saw it this summer. I was very impressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am guessing the guys in town, working out and busting their butts were bordering on resentment when a player with all the talent in the world isn't right beside them doing the same. Just a hunch that could be bad for team chemistry. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grady was stringing the coaches along and wouldn't make the commitment. Coaches gave him every opportunity and now it is time to move on.

Curious what the experts out there think. Our schedule is nice, real nice. Our RB group is nice. Our DL group is nice. Our LB group is nice. Our QB is nice. If our OL WR and DB groups can come together we will be in business. Our tough games are at home too which is also nice. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do those and the rest takes care of itself. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curious what the experts out there think. 9-2 or 8-3. Adding to what geaux said, IMO, there are two musts: Keaton NEEDS to stay healthy. Very apparent what happens when he was down last year. Cole NEEDS to stay healthy. He is the Keaton on the D side. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's listed on the participation report for that game but William James and Jawon Johnson are the safeties who made plays on the stat sheet.

A healthy Reyes would have made a huge difference. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stand by for a blasphemy alert ... I don't want to find out, but I think they might be able to go "RB by Committee" to cover Santiago for a couple games if the unspeakable came about; however, in that statement includes a lot of pressure on the "Committee" and on a healthy Studsrud. But of utmost importance: a healthy offensive line. Keeping them strong keeps the other guys upright also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not in the expert group by my prediction is 8-3 but I think we could go 9-2 if everything goes our way, no key players injured etc. etc.. However Grady not coming back, the Colorado DB transfer changing back to MSU, and JIS leaving has tempered my enthusiasm for the Bowling Green game. I will still be going into that game wanting to win, and I do think we have a chance......however that extra help in the secondary against an FBS team that wings the ball around would have helped, and our O line with 4 new starters....may not be fully gelled by the second game. We will likely need a lot of things to go right to win that game, at least we'll get a good idea how much (or if) our secondary has improved from last year. The schedule is in our favor this year, but you never know who could be this years Portland State. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkster Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 8-3 should be a given with this years weak schedule, even with a few injuries Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Santiago is very important, as can be said about every player! Its the lack of proven talent behind Keaton and cole that is the unknown. Arguably the qb is the most important postion in all of football. Being voted captain as a junior speaks volumes of Keaton's character and leadership. Had he been able to play (weber) and finish( idaho st), IMO, those would of been two more victories....9-2. Quality qb depth is a must!!! Last year we found out the hard way As with cole, being in a pass heavy league with a secondary that's suspect, he is a true talent that needs to be back there at all times. He was out basically the same time as Keaton last year and was dearly missed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had thought earlier he might start opposite of Deion . He definitely had the talent just lacked some social skills. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
