UND92,96 Posted March 2, 2004 Posted March 2, 2004 Isn't it a little odd that Stratton was named most valuable defensive back over Danny Gagner, who was first-team all-NCC? Quote
legend334 Posted March 2, 2004 Posted March 2, 2004 vince....you are always in the know.....wwwwwhhhhhaaaattttttt Quote
SiouxFan4Life Posted March 3, 2004 Posted March 3, 2004 That is good information to know. Hey, if you would rank the top 3 players as far as team value by class. LIke the top 3 seniors, juniors, sophs, freshman. Either side of the ball...I would be intrested to find out. I will also process this Quote
SiouxFan4Life Posted March 3, 2004 Posted March 3, 2004 I think the most valuable seniors out of this class would have to be John Bowenkamp, Adam Roland, and Ryan Manke. I believe all three will determine a large part in the success of the program next year. In the Juniour class It is extremely tough. They are so stacked. I would obdviously say Digger, and then maybe Brandstead and Gagner. Digger needs no explination, but Im excited to see what Brandstead and Gagner do when they are on the field together..... I will continue to think about the other two classes Quote
SiouxFan4Life Posted March 9, 2004 Posted March 9, 2004 Sorry Im late finishing this......but no one responded anyway. So maybe Im just doing this for myself...Anyway I would definately say the valuable 2 from this years freshman class would be Brandon Strouth, Jason Hoffschneider, and Zach BabingtonJohnson. For the redshirts, I guess I will have to go with what the coaches felt.....Rick Presthus, Jeff Webber (though he isnt a freshman)Alex Cadwell....... I do wonder about Josh Ranson, who could be a bigtime player...I guess we will see soon, because spring ball is less than a month away.. Quote
