2017 UND Recruiting

[AJS]

SFI does a great job of breaking down current recruiting class: https://siouxfb.areavoices.com/2016/12/16/und-class-of-2017-update/

They also answered the question I've been asking about size of this class. They said between 20 and 22.

Was wondering that myself, Thanks.

They're saying Sequin is coming this next semester.

Not to be a pain (spoiler: I'm about to be), I'd like to see about five high-end offensive line recruit names show up.

From watching the video on him, I think this is UND's next great inside linebacker if he commits. Great instincts and the patience to read plays before attacking. Has offers from Maine and Buffalo.

[UNDvince97-01]

Hopefully geography comes into play for McDonald and having 7 BSC schools within 1000 miles of Delta.  Shorter trips for his family members on road games in comparison to Maine and Buffalo.

Tried to look up McKinney on hudl to watch him and it says he is from the class of 2016... Did he go to HS  this fall and didn't play or what? ...... confused.

He needed an extra semester to graduate. The dude has taken a heck of a road to get to where he is.

The time may be approaching where Bubba can recruit from the Gophers.  Johanneson can help.

[SiouxVolley]

ESPN is reporting that N Illinois will replace Minnesota in the next 48 hrs in the Holiday Bowl if the Gopher players don't end their walk out.

The situation can be plenty bad for Minnesota, as they might have to start a team from scratch.  Student discipline is not the same as legal proceedings, especially for scholarship athletes.

The latest I am hearing on Mafe is he wants to play with his two teammates, Lofton and Campbell.  All three want to go to the same school, which is about the most short-sighted thing ever but so be it.  SDSU is the only school that offered all three of them so that is probably where they will all end up.   What happens when one flunks out or one hates it?  Then one of the others realizes they only came there because of their buddy and he is now leaving.  

Wonder if UND will offer the other two. Probably need OL at this point but all 3 are top 20 mn recruits with multiple offers. Guessing no if it hasn't happened already.

Guessing there is a 0% chance of that.

Don't we have quite a few OL with only Coe graduating. Do we not have the ideal number or are we looking for more talent?
