Or Q, or Geno, or Webb, or Anderson....

need I go on?

I was just specifically talking about under Sather, but correct, we have had a great history of guards at the D1 level

Fair point.

Troy Huff. It's sad that we can go from that level of talent to what we have now...

I kept my list exclusive to people who played at the 1 and 2 spot (Troy was a 3), but your point still stands.

Nothing against Norman, but I just watched his Midco feature and in it he said that no other schools wanted him. That only UND was recruiting him. Seems like there are a lot of guys on our roster this year and in years past under Sather that had similar situations.

How many guys on our roster had 0 other D1 offers or even D1 interest before coming here??

Add Doppler and Erickson to that list for next years recruits

Other then Bj and matthews I don't know any that had other D1 offers. And I think matthews and Bjs were taken away from them why we ended up getting them.

Neither one is D1 talent in my opinion . Why jump on these two when they would have been there at the end of the season ? Or maybe that's all Sather can get...

BJ’s Providence offer may have been off the table but he had other D1 offers. But yeah I don’t think there was much if any competing D1 offers for the others. Heck I think we lost a recruiting battle to Augie last year.

If we win more than one game in the conference tournament is it a successful year?

Does that include a win in the weakling Wednesday or whatever they’ll call the 9 vs 10 seed game they have now?

O wow so it is 7 vs 10 and 8 vs 9? If this team could somehow put something together and get to a 7 seed, then upset  the 2 seed, and actually be showing some growth, by both players and coaches, I guess it probably would be considered a successful season with a real rocky beginning and middle

Correct.

From this point going forward, I want to see majority of the minutes dedicated to those that are (hopefully) going to help us in the future. Eaglestaff, Omot and Brooks would be my main concern but add in Levias, Mathews, T, Norman and Trent and I’m good. 

I’m a Danielson fan because of the way he plays the game so if he’s playing so be it but he shouldn’t be playing 20+ mins a game. I don’t think Sueker or Nero need to play at all. Neither provides any D and really no offense either. Reid Grant could be a nice D2 point guard. Think he’s smart but just not a D1 guy. 

This is D1 basketball, not every one needs to play in each game. The season is basically a lost cause barring some magical run in the tournament so at least develop your guys as much as you can unless you’re just wanting to go down with the sinking ship. I feel like such a broken record saying all this.

I see Kraft (PG - Red River) has dropped 30 in 2 consecutive games 

We prefer to go to Iowa and Illinois to get our fringe D1 talent.  He is too close

Have gotten to watch a lot of him over the years. Probably skilled enough to play d1 ball but is limited athletically. Thin frame, quick first step, but would really struggle to defend at this level. Hard working kid. Hope he succeeds at the next level wherever he ends up at. 
He’s probably pretty similar to Hong so who knows I guess

I was talking about our current and past players in Shockey and Grant.  If you are already calling our future commits fringe D1 then OK, that's you.

Well your comment was in response to a prospective recruit so I guess that’s why I responded with where our current recruiting class is from and not on their talent.
