360's D-Line preview Kelly called it the deepest group on the team. Very high praise for the unit from them.

I like that they are thinking a little out of the box and tinkering with putting Orlando or Beech as DE sometimes if some teams are just trying to power run it down our throats.  Looks like Mcnaboe will likely start at one DE, he is only 240....pretty easy for him to get pushed around by 300 lb lineman.

Guy has a good motor, but he's the size a good Middle Linebacker. Ratelle was that size wasn't he?

Talking about trash, McFooly was trashing UND and SDSU indoor performance facilities because they have tracks in them and were bragging that the Ag U one does not because it is a “football first facility”……. So much for your facilities being used to the benefit of the entire university! Let alone to mens and womens athletics. Funny thing thing is one of the big reasons they haven’t been invited to make a jump is because their other programs are still stuck in basement while football gets the Cadillac facilities.

McFooly is such a tool, he is no ally of UND!

WOW you are delusional - have you looked at our SB, BB, indoor track, outdoor track, Baseball venues?  Yours is the school that concentrates on 1 sport.  Look where ALL your sports placed last year, all in the bottom of the conference, yet your AD gets an extension.

Oh get over yourself. UND competes in all their sports and has an expanding facility plan. Fargo Ag U doesn’t even offer college hockey nor do they have a top hockey facility, so by default, you have no grounds to even argue.

Not sure how not having a hockey program makes someone’s observations irrelevant to a discussion about facilities, but ok.

His point stands though, it is completely false to say NDSU doesn’t have competitive facilities outside of the football program. Basketball, baseball, track and wrestling all have seen massive improvements in their facilities in the last 15-20 years.

Take the bickering to a different thread, this is about 2022 UND football.

McFooly is an antagonist. Even a NDSU fan should be able to see that. To slight either UND or SDSU indoor practice facilities because they have a indoor track is pure stupidity. Why wouldn't you build a facility to be as efficient as possible. and Yes, NDSU has also done a nice job with several of their facilities, I can't imagine Tom Miller getting on the radio and saying anything otherwise.

As for Hockey, of course UND is going to put their focus on that. It may be a niche sport, but it has been very successful and very profitable for the UND. Does that mean every school should have it? No, and while I love seeing college hockey expand, having it some be so large bring some of the charm to it; you really get to know some of the other programs. My personal opinion, I would love to see NDSU have hockey. I think it would be a great immediate rivalry game and as we have seen with other new programs, there is potential for early success. Though that isn't going to happen and that's.

Now can we stop the pissing match about irrelevant crap and get back to UND's Fall season?

It’s apples to oranges. Ag U doesn’t even need to worry about hockey facilities. UND offers hockey facilities PLUS football facilities and basketball/volleyball facilities. 
 

Flagship. 
 

But this is 2022 *UND* football thread, carry on.

None of us should give two ____ what he thinks.

If mcfooley was so good as he thinks he would be writing for a p5 school

that ain’t happening

First EP of Day by Day for the season is up and running....(actually on Friday - i'm slow)

 

[Und246]

Is there practice today?

Single game tickets on sale now!!

[AJS]

Anybody with a good memory that has looked at the available tickets around this time in years past. How does this year look compared to other years? It appears to me that there aren't as many available as I would have normally thought.

Is this correct?

• Student tickets: 210-212
• Opposing tickets: Top of 218
• Season Tickets: I clicked on buy season tickets and although you could pick most sections there weren't that many seats available

 

Outside of opposing tickets being given back, would there be any other large groups of tickets that would become available? Ticket sales seem to be pretty strong.

What are the "WC" seats that are sold on the walkway between the top and bottom sections?

[SIOUXFAN97]

i think it was und' fb insta page yesterday had an inaccurate throw from tommy two gloves that a rb or te had to one hand to catch and netted about a yard...exciting play to highlight on social media.

Tom Miller 

day 11 quote 

• The center-quarterback exchange caused UND problems all practice — both with quarterbacks under center and in the shotgun.

 

I don’t like it!

one thing to have someone beat us - whole another thing to beat ourselves - we tend to do the latter every now and then

Not a bad pass.  Great catch by Zavalney.
