geaux_sioux Posted October 21, 2021 Posted October 21, 2021 Kickers are typically the smartest, best looking, most athletic guy on a football team. It’s why other position players sometimes rag on them. Jealousy. 1 Quote
Mama Sue Posted October 21, 2021 Posted October 21, 2021 So you were a kicker? And obviously a very humble one! Quote

Look at the Vikings history. No matter what kicker we signed, he would have been discussed, as all football commits are, because UND hockey isn't the only program at UND with a fan base. If UND signs one of the best kickers in the country, that is indeed something to be excited about, because it matters, and wins and losses will eventually be decided by this recruit's foot. Turning good news into an opportunity to !@#$ on the football program only hurts. If more fans like you supported the football program instead of dismissing it, we could probably sell out the Alerus more, improve recruiting, and in-turn, improve the program. Good to know you're a realistic band wagon Sioux fan, though. Why would I want to look at the Vikings history? They're a doomed franchise. Quote

BarnWinterSportsEngelstad Posted October 21, 2021 Posted October 21, 2021 It's nice to have a few good lookn kickers on posting here with da what it takes to win, and positive arrows in their quiver! 2 Quote
Nodak78 Posted October 21, 2021 Posted October 21, 2021 When UND offered I checked his video and said damn be quiet. Not sure we will get this kicker. I think the stars aligned. Kicking inside mostly and will probably start his freshman year helped seal the deal. He will definitely win us some games. Quote

Once the 3 star skill position players see that we have a top 20 ranked kicker, all the pieces will fall into place! Thank God it's hockey season. I realize I'm in the minority here, but I thought this was some of the best sarcasm I've ever seen on this board. I laugh every time I read it. Quote

Dustin Posted October 24, 2021 Posted October 24, 2021 Anyone know of recruits at the game yesterday? Besides Luna Larson, what other big names are still out there? Quote
Dustin Posted October 24, 2021 Posted October 24, 2021 Do all of the players listed as “Senior” on the roster still get another year of eligibility if they want it? Quote
Parkers Pros Posted October 24, 2021 Posted October 24, 2021 Saw a couple kids wearing placards walking around with their parents one of which was a massive O-lineman. 1 Quote

They are all eligible for another year. But I believe coaches get to decide who they want back. If a senior is mostly just a career back up, they would probably want to free that scholarship up.

Heard that some who are getting their degree might be ready to move on with the next stage of their life, while others see a chance to go to grad school and have it paid for - not a bad thing either way.

UND Football Fan Posted October 25, 2021 Posted October 25, 2021 Caleb place 3rd in shot and disc in class B State Meet last year. When watching the state meet he looked like an athletic kid. Quote

Talked to a couple guys from Lisbon. They said pretty dominant at that level. More so on defense. Sounds like height on hudl must be old, says 6’1”, sounds like about 6’4”. With Flyger called out on tweet, suspect D end? Quote
Class_of_98 Posted October 26, 2021 Posted October 26, 2021 Nope I’m wrong. OL according to 360. Quote

If they were seniors in the Spring and came back for the Fall this is their final year. If they were Juniors in the Fall and came back, they may be listed as Seniirs this year with another year possible. NDSU lists both Christian Watson and Cordell Volson as seniors. Watson was a Junior in the Spring and could come back next year even though he has already said he is going to the NFL next year, but Volson was a Senior in the Spring and decided to come back. He can not come back next year. Quote

I shouldn't have said all, because yeah guys that would have been seniors in Fall of 2020/Spring 2021......yeah they won't have eligibility after Fall of 2021. I guess I was thinking that it was implied that he was talking about guys other than guys like Holm, Canady, etc.. who would have been seniors last year. Quote
