SWSiouxMN Posted July 12, 2017 Author Share Posted July 12, 2017 Heard Geno had a big night at the Twin Cities Pro-Am, he dropped 37 points. In Big Sky news, SUU Guard Randy Onwuasor is transferring out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoops44 Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 The players shake hands as game 2 comes to a close. Team Jones beats Diggs Team 112-94. Tyus Jones leads the way w/ 39 pts. 37 for Crandall...Hooker, Tyus Jones NBA and Tre Jones number one rated prep point guard per scout.com and prep hoops.com ...were the guards playing vs Crandall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMSioux Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 Can we win the Big Sky with the best point guard and a supporting cast? Perhaps the transfers will bring something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps the transfers will bring something. There is a lot more questions to this team now that Drick and Shanks have transferred out and we will see what these new transfers bring to the table. The key to me is with these three: Jones, Walter and McCauley. Avants is solid, but UND is going to need more than that in the post. If they can match or exceed what Drick and Shanks brought last year, then UND will definitely be in the mix. If they can't, they will be in the 2nd tier with Sac and PSU. Geno is talented and will be in the hunt for POY honors with Sanders, Hall, Rorie, Chapman. I am not concerned with Stewart or Seales. I think one of the guards (Brown, Jafar, Moody, Trey) will step in and give valuable minutes off the bench. Right now I would have UND still in the 5 slot in my preseason rankings. I still have Idaho pegged as my preseason favorite and you can throw MSU, Griz and Weber anywhere between 2-4 and be justified. But in no way will this be another 9-22 season unless the wheels totally fall off the wagon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't have to accept it (and can always demand more) but I think we need to expect a bit of a rebuilding type season next year.... but I really do think that 2018-19 will be a special year, barring unforeseen changes. A nice way to start off the Summit era. All that said, I am not writing off 2017, it's just the pragmatist in me talking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoops44 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Idaho has top 7 back plus starting guard Callandret starter from 15/16.... They are logical top choice.... If you do not take a good and objective look at every team in the league before spewing out predictions on where teams finish then you are just making uneducated guesses 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they are still slightly better than Sac and PSU. I think PSU could be that team that makes a jump into the top 4 if things break right. Lots of balance. I do agree that Idaho is the favorite, Weber has Harding and the heralded transfer in Chapman, MSU has Hall and the Griz has balance and depth.

SiouxVolley Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Why no news on OOC Scheduling? @Creighton @NDSU NDSU Many teams have already announced their schedules. Looks like we will be maxed out with NAIA and tournaments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if he is getting $. It appears he had committed to Augsburg but must not have signed a NLI - unless they released him.

SWSiouxMN Posted August 2, 2017 Author Share Posted August 2, 2017 Any rumors out there on who we are playing in non-conference? I have turned up nothing in my searches. Even the usual diving for NAIA teams has come up empty. Supposedly NDSUs is coming out tomorrow, so we will know the official dates for the two matchups. (According to a poster over on that other board ). I hope they are more spread out that they were last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
