Santiago showed a lot more power in his HS film. I think the comps to Dressler may be more appropriate.

Darn. Great ILB prospect.

I sure wish we had more posts in this thread talking about new commits instead of the Moo stuff. Super pumped for this season. Keep it going Bubba and company with getting bigger and stronger recruits. We have a better product that UND is selling and promoting. Exciting!!

My ignorance - Is this normal that there hasn't been a verbal in a while?

Yes.  Now is the time where HS's are beginning their seasons.  There might be a few here and there but it will slow down until September/October.

A new Hawk has landed.  Any guesses?

 I couldn't be more excited with the 5 verbals we already have, and it sounds like one more per Teeder.  Super talented young men!!  With that said, I was thinking we should of had a few more also at this juncture but have total faith in bubba and crew!

Graham visited campus today and took in this morning's practice at Memorial Stadium.

Agreed. I really like his film. Has a knack for closing that final yard and punishing guys at the end.

Great get.....getting some recruits from big time MN HS's......#6...how does that compare to last year at this time.?

[shep]

I assume LB at this level. Seemed small against some of those large O linemen. He never bull rushed anyone but had a knack of playing off the block.

We had 10 commitments at this time a year ago but I wouldn't be too concerned about having six so far this year.

Do we need less guys this year anyway?  How many spots ate open vs previous years?

Nice! Welcome Noah. Judging by his Twitter, I wonder if he'll swim at UND too. Anyone know how much the seasons interfere?

 

Noah is a football player who swims. He will not swim in college.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z1h9zBMSFV4
