Shawn-O Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 Regarding what matters most, this is a young man's reputation we are talking about here, let's all be mindful of that. On a football level, I'm more okay with this than I thought I would be given what we saw out of Smith. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The kid is choosing to leave schools, no reason to post any rumors on a website. There are correct avenues to take for those allegations and a fan message board isn’t it. As a fan I am bummed he’s leaving. No reason to post stuff about a young man on his way out. Most would welcome him back if things changed. My question was a standalone that had nothing to do with anything else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forksandspoons Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 Good for Robertson and Urwiler. I’ll be rooting for them at NIU! Looks like Cooper would be a good get and the type of OLB we use. Looks like he played safety prior. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJS Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 Aaron Cooper is very intriguing. Highlights. 2019: Started all 11 games at Will linebacker as a Sophomore (3rd on team with 67 tackles) 2021: The Depth Chart I saw he was starter at Will Linebacker. Finished 6th on team with 39 tackles 6'1" 210lbs Grad Transfer. Cal Poly was not good at all this past year. Gave up a lot of points (39.2 game), didn't score many (15.4 game). There is no replacement coming for Turner of course, but could Cooper be a Ty Shannon (this year) / Urwiler (expectations next year) replacement? As far as comparable impact. Call him a solid # 3 / # 4 OLB? That would be a very big and very needed pick up. I really like that offer. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should clarify, I meant UND is not going to get a bonafide #1 OLB in the portal. Or I would have a hard time believing that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So before a kid goes into the portal, is he able to reach out to schools.....and basically say hey if I go into portal would you give me an offer, and can coaches at that other school communicate with that player prior to them going into the portal if the player is the one who initiated contact with them? Thought about this particularly with Urweiler, he committed within like 24 hours of going into the portal. Or in his case do they communicate through his brother so the coach and him have no direct contact before he goes into the portal. Have to almost think Urweiler new he would be in at NIU before he ever went into the portal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Question is if our defensive players were so good that these guys weren’t starting this year and still we’re good enough to play FBS , or were they buried on the depth chart because we had too much loyalty to the 6th year seniors? That Covid year may not have been as helpful as we thought…… Is UND’s defense better than NIU? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many guys in our d, would have no trouble finding playing time at NIU. Not gonna win many D1 football games scoring less than 4 tds on offense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 A system in which the season ticket holder is under a more binding commitment to the program in any given season more so than the AD, coaching staff, or players will be doomed to fail. Whatever I think of the restrictions that used to be in place, this pendulum swing is destructive in the opposite direction. Having absolutely no boundaries in place is no more healthy than having far too rigid ones. im not contributing to a system which perpetuates this garbage. If this is now a feature of the system and not a bug, then count me as one that will be giving no more commitment than is required of them. I’ll watch on tv. I may attend in person if it’s convenient for me. But I’m not committing anything long term to this garbage until they restore a few guardrails to this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with the first paragraph, disagree with the second one. We do need guardrails put on this (and on NIL for that matter), but not supporting your team(s) and school only hurts the student-athletes who stick around. And they are not the ones causing the problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
