NDSU is finally climbing out of the hole they dug themselves with the disaster that was Carolyn DeHoff. UND runs the risk of being a distant #4 amongst the Dakota Four. Unacceptable. Bison are still getting drummed on a nightly basis, they still have a ways to go. I do agree with the rest, UND is going to have to figure something out for next year. 1 Quote

Big scorer back in high school at FF I believe but other than once in blue moon hitting 2 or 3 treys in a game, there's not a lot there in terms of game, athleticism, etc. I wonder how much that knee injury has impacted her.

And they will probably get better in the next 2-3 seasons. And when they do, I want a team that can beat them. Quote

They drew a whopping 399 fans (announced attendance, not actual) for a game last week, though somehow claimed almost 1,000 more than that for their next game 2 days later. Their 5 D1 wins are over teams with the follwing RPI's (out of 349): 346, 286, 327, 302, 314. Zero chance they buy their coach out of the last year of her contract, so it will be at least one season of terrible basketball in Fargo. Can't imagine they'd extend her, time will tell how long it will take a new coach to fix the mess two bad hires have made. I don't think recruiting has gone all that well but it doesn't seem like it takes a ton of time to see big improvements in WBB. Quote
SiouxFan100 Posted February 11, 2018 Posted February 11, 2018 Questionable players at this level: moton (she looks out of shape, I thought she would be ok coming in), strand - I have been saying this for a while, she has to be more than a 30% shooter, the other bailey sister - probably was a package deal i think a few of our good players are overrated su is still a train wreck dont know why sd schools are so much better Quote

SWSiouxMN Posted February 18, 2018 Author Posted February 18, 2018 If you told me in the beginning of the year that the women would have the exact same record as the men team does right now in BSC play, I would have said "wow, the men have really overachieved this year" 1 Quote
Jerry Posted February 25, 2018 Posted February 25, 2018 22 minutes ago, UNDBIZ said: 45 points?! Not having Fallyn Freije playing due to an ankle sprain really hurts the offense. Sawatzke, Dailey, and Reinke took the ball to the basket in the first half and got some baskets but stopped penetrating in the second half. We tried to feed Klabo in the post in the second half and turned the ball over too much. We just physically do not have the athletes that USD and SDSU have. They can take the ball to the hole with either hand plus shoot from the outside. Our players are a bit too one dimensional. On the good side we did play decent defense for 3 quarters. The third quarter was a disaster, leaving open three point shooters. For some reason Brewster does not have us playing a zone full court trap or double teaming when we trail late in games. We just play a vanilla man to man full court which doesn't created any turnovers. Listening to the Northern Colorado announcer was painful on Pluto, he was complaining so much about the officials.

Don't know how you can have div 1 athletes and not hit a 3 pointer either. Both basketball teams have been baffling. This season has gone off the rails... but most can be forgiven by winning 4 in a row in Reno. 1 Quote

I like our chances in the spoiler role , especially if Frieje can get back in there. I guarantee nobody wants to draw us! If Brewster can find a way to get his shooters to heat up (Dailey, please) we could win the tournament. Quote
BarnWinterSportsEngelstad Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 Spoiler, then that we are, starting March 5th. Quote
lawkota Posted March 1, 2018 Posted March 1, 2018 Sac St is horrible. They lead UND by 10 after 3. Quote
SiouxFan100 Posted March 1, 2018 Posted March 1, 2018 Yes. 19 tos thru the 3rd qtr just got number 20 Quote
UND1983 Posted March 1, 2018 Posted March 1, 2018 This season is all on Brew. How else could a healthy team (for most part) completely fall apart and barely be able to score 50 points? Something is going on. 3 Quote

Nothing is on Brew because he isn't the one out there not making the plays! So he gets a pass. Didn't you get the memo? (sarcasm) #seasoninthetoilet 2 Quote
