SiouxFanSince1990 Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 The coaching staff talks with these players. Spicer holds the cards as a young local talent. But if he doesn’t trust his future coaches decisions, then I don’t want him here. If spicer wants to trade 1 year for 3-4 years as a Fighting Sioux, then good riddance. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not a good defensive player, or at least he's not trying to be one, I guess. He's also apparently not the best teammate nor a wonderful person, based on what I've heard. We can let this one go, it's fine. Honestly not trying to be argumentative or "go against the grain" as you put, but I don't miss the kid on our team. It's that simple. 1 minute ago, The Sicatoka said: Any truth to the rumor that Morrow's defense partner was called "Laundry" ... because he got hung out to dry so much?

If I were the coaches, as long as he hasn't signed anywhere else, I wouldn't give up on this. To me, I would have some NHL scouts talk to the kid and his family and explain that his development would be better if he played another year of Juniors, and that being a possible late round pick, there is no hurry to move on to college. To the contrary, moving too fast could end up ruining his development. Doesn't hurt, as long as that bridge isn't burned, and I would hope that UND still is open to communication. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That article was written before McLaughlin committed. Still, what I'm still stuck on is the timing of everything. I guess the logical thought would be that up until this week Spicer thought he was coming this Fall. If you've followed Schlossman, he's been saying for months that McLaughlin / Blake are locks and that Strinden was the 3rd to come in. So, doing the math, it must just be as simple as James went from #5 to #4 recently and that is that. My only confusion is I would have thought James would have been ahead of him the entire time (see production / midterm rankings / age). I'm just getting a little impatient and reading Schlossman's article, it says the Forward group should be cleaned up by May! I cannot figure out why this would take so long. I am convinced that McLaughlin / Blake / Strinden / James will be coming, which is what I wanted. More impatience then anything on my part, since daily you see other schools vision become clearer and clearer (see Minnesota's 5th guy to the portal yesterday). UND is just spinning their wheels.

I want to clarify, the impatience part is on how the numbers are going to work. Logically, there are players that will have to leave for you to keep Senden / Hain and bring in 4 Freshman. I don't understand why if a player was going to leave that they wouldn't have done it already. It just may be that there will be 17 Forwards. I'll guess we'll see.
