the green team Posted July 17, 2017 Posted July 17, 2017 What I find interesting is, what many of us thought was a so-so year running the ball(hey, we have high standards) last year, Santiago and Oliveira, were still able to do what they did, which is a big reason for these preseason accolades. It also means that if the line play takes just another step, things could be scary fun in the rushing attack this season. Congrats to all, but I know this program is focused on bigger team goals, but sure is nice to have all the players listed within that locker room. 3 Quote
jdub27 Posted July 17, 2017 Author Posted July 17, 2017 From last month: Fighting Hawk duo earns preseason All-America nod Quote A week after the publication pegged North Dakota as the No. 5 team in its preseason poll, contributors from Athlon Sports had a pair of Fighting Hawks land on their FCS Preseason All-America Team Wednesday. Senior safety Cole Reyes held down one of the four defensive back spots, while junior John Santiago was recognized as the kick returner on the 27-man squad. Quote

Both from UND, neither named Johanneson. Yeah, I think we will have a pretty good running game this year!! 4 Quote

northernraider Posted July 17, 2017 Posted July 17, 2017 As the great Woody Hayes would say 3 yards and a cloud of dust. #PoundThePigskin Quote
shep Posted July 17, 2017 Posted July 17, 2017 Flash Gordon seems to be a top notch RB, but when you're #4 on the depth chart and have those skills, I wonder if they will find some other places for him to play. Quote

If he sticks around Gordon and Johannason will be a great tandem for their senior year. 1 Quote

Until JJ shows me something, i'd have Gordon at #3. Either way, he's staying at RB. IMO Quote
UND-FB-FAN Posted July 18, 2017 Posted July 18, 2017 Winning brings forth accolades. UND is the reigning Big Sky Conference champion and that is worth something. On to bigger and better things this season. Go Fighting Hawks! Quote
