CMSioux Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 Better than I thought, just thinking about the two we lost in the portal last year that are sitting on the bench at NKU and JM, would be a different team. I'm planning a retirement road trip to watch them in Omaha and Denver in the new year - thinking if we are back at full strength we have a shot at those two games. Next week is gonna be tough - but there's always a chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UND-FB-FAN Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 UND has below average team. NDSU has above average team. Game played in Fargo. Result: as expected, NDSU wins by double digits. State of the program: HC Sather has been underwhelming at UND. Not successful hire thus far. Big picture, How does UND Basketball succeed in the shadow of UND ice puck? Obviously, Chaves doesn’t have the answer. Again, like Sather, Chaves has been an underwhelming hire also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Und246 Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 You can call that a double digit loss but if you watched the game that was not a double digit loss just to be fair. Scores can change quickly at the end of game when one team has to take chances and force things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eaglestaff is a really good get for Sather. He potentially could be a program changer. Unfortunately right now half the roster is D2 talent pressed into big minutes at the D1 level. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retention of talent. UND basketball and hockey can exist at the same time and is a poor excuse for the state of the roster. If Sather was able to hang on to even one of the two players that left last year and wasn’t a grad transfer this team looks different. If he is unable to retain the young talent on the team this year I will begin to wonder. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWSiouxMN Posted December 23, 2021 Author Share Posted December 23, 2021 Get the team healthy. Hope to get Nero back soon (Omaha/DU?) and then Sueker (UST/WIU?) and hopefully Levias. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWSiouxMN Posted December 23, 2021 Author Share Posted December 23, 2021 Bruns needs to be the man going forward and yes, UND needs to hold on to him and the rest of this freshman class. Can't build the sandcastle if the waves keep knocking down your first layer. I think T has put together a couple of good games and that needs to continue. I'm impressed with his free throw shooting (around 82%, that pretty good for a big). He just needs to keep playing strong. I'm glad that Igbanugo is finding himself again but... is Panoam going to tap back into that magic he had during conference season last year? Nero and Sueker need to get back soon and hopefully Levias can actually get healthy enough to get into the lineup. What is his timeframe?

If would be different if Ihenacho had stayed and if a certain grad program on campus was in-person, Rebraca wouldn't have left. Yes, if there is another massive departure of talent, it will be time to ask questions. I don't really count year 1 as that is a housecleaning of players that barely can get on the court at the D2 level (minus Hazekamp) and Moody (who has been a bench player at SUU, hasn't topped his stats from his freshman year.) 25 minutes ago, SiouxFan100 said: Panoam doesn’t seem to get open shots He doesn't look like the same confident player. The guy that tore up USD when they had Umude and AJ and rolled into the Betty at 10-0 and send them back to Verm with 2 losses. That was an awesome display of: You know what I am going to do and you can't do a damn thing about it to stop me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
