An educated guess: most NDSU fans didn't see UND play this year.  Some saw them play in Fargo once.  Probably same ones watched the game at UND.  

But they still told everyone (prior to NCAA Tourney) how UND sucked, from a bad conference, will not win a game in the Summit, and so forth.

You are correct.

Pretty good results last night for Hooker and Crandall considering this:

59. North Dakota: If UND and its scintillating guard Quinton Hooker weren’t playing Arizona, a team with a pack-line defense meant to contain a guard with Hooker’s skill set, this could have been an upset.

UND's backcourt 3 could easily play in a high major conference.  I think AZ Coach Miller said great guards are not that uncommon in midmajors.  There was more than some talk on Arizona forums about trying to get our paws on Hooker (yeah he's a senior).   

Midmajors recruiting players above 6'6 that have that combo of talent and size, is more of the challenge.

Over 1.4 million viewers watched our team, now that's a lot of exposure for our program.

Don't know if this was posted earlier somewhere but just noticed it this weekend.  Drick and Gonzaga's Josh Perkins are best friends. Story taped out in SLC.
