They obviously see what they want in those kids. Just getting anxious to see some more names and play makers pop up. They have only had a couple complete misses so far. That happens everywhere. Their track record is strong enough for me to just trust even though I'd like to have 12 verbals by now. Quote

Can't argue with that; like I said, just anxious for any football news at this point in the summer. Really like the potential with this Rain Slater from Canada. Also impressed with a few other offers we do have out. I suppose some of these kids will wait to make there commitments until they can make their campus visits and maybe see a game. Would really like to get Marquis Majors. Would also like to land Audette or Carette; if not both. Gotta keep beefing up that O line to get ready for the MVFC. Quote

nodak651 Posted July 25, 2017 Posted July 25, 2017 Could the slow recruiting class this year be a result of our recruiting coordinator leaving? What does the recruiting coordinator do? Quote

He is entering his 4th year at the helm. I don't think Roger Thomas was beating NDSU head-to-head in recruiting four years in either. I trust this coaching staff based on what I have seen so far. Well, Roger Thomas NEVER beat NDSU in recruiting....so there is that. It got to the point where NDSU considered replacing the turf in the Fargo Dome with paper since the Bison were always better on paper! 2 Quote

UND-1 Posted July 25, 2017 Posted July 25, 2017 Maybe everyone should worry about our own program and maybe, just periodically, keep tabs on our rivals. Just a thought..... 3 Quote

Yeah, personally I think the "slow recruiting" (my feeling too) has more to do with impatience for football season and football news than it has to do with actual slow recruiting. trying to remember how we got quite a few big commits last year after the recruiting weekend, where recruits attended games. Or am I remembering that wrong? Quote

LeaveNoDoubt Posted July 25, 2017 Posted July 25, 2017 I think it just seems slow because a lot more people are excited where this program is going, the hype is real, and we're all paying more attention and keeping closer tabs on recruits and the future. Have faith in the coaching staff, in guessing it's not easy to say no to Bubba and his crew, he makes the kids believe in what they're building. Quote

nodak651 Posted July 26, 2017 Posted July 26, 2017 I googled his name and a gopher message board popped up with someone saying they gave him a pwo offer in June. 1 Quote

UNDBIZ Posted July 26, 2017 Posted July 26, 2017 #7 - 6'3" PWO WR from GF Red River Last year we got our 7th commit (also a PWO) on August 15th. Quote
