Looks like Smallidge got caught in a numbers game in Omaha. They carried 9D. A couple freshmen (Pennington and Mancini) got 30+ games each. Knoepke came back as a fifth-year. They went Proctor, Scanlin, Knoepke, Krenzen, Mancini, Pennington (30+ games each) most nights. Next in was Johnny T at 24. Then Harrison and Smallidge at 8 each. And just as I post this someone else finds this "answer key". https://unothegateway.com/from-car-ride-to-concussion-omahas-jake-harrison-and-jason-smallidge-share-unique-bond-through-injury-plagued-season/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stoneySIOUX Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 So, I'm bored and I'm curious.... who in the heck is wearing letters this year??? I highly doubt they'd take the letters off of Sendo or Hain. Have we ever had a co-captain? I think that'd be weird. Frisch could/should absolutely wear a C, but I don't think they'd take it off of Sendo. Doesn't bother me to have a lot of letters. Depth and leadership will be a big part of this team. I'll say this: C - Senden A - Hain A - Frisch A - Gaber A - Jammer A - Judd And dare I say .... Kleven, to me, deserves a letter ... Maybe remove Juddy and add Kleven? Or.... go real nutty in the COVID nutty era and go with 6 As lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sicatoka Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 More ridiculous than a 1C/5A scenario? CC this year with 3C/0A. Would they go 1C/2A (Senden, Hain, Frisch) and would that be some sort of tell to 2023-24 season? Would they go 1C/3A (above plus Jamernik) and would that be a different tell? Would they go 1C/5A like 2016? (And which five? Hain and Frisch are the gimmes.) Oh the many questions of the off season ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brianvf Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 Defensemen (8) Fifth-year Chris Jandric Fifth-year Ty Farmer Fifth-year Ryan Sidorski Senior Ethan Frisch Junior Tyler Kleven Junior Cooper Moore Sophomore Brent Johnson Sophomore Luke Bast I'm guessing we'll be going back to the portal next season for some dmen. My bet would be that we'll lose Jandric, Farmer, Sidorski, Frisch, and Kleven from this list next year....leaving just Moore, Johnson, and Bast as our remaining d-corps. Depending on how many of our current dman recruits are ready to join the NCAA ranks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siouxfaninseattle Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 So the last time UND had a C and five As, they won a national championship. And I don't recall having a C and five As since. Logic then tells me go with a C and five As. It's obviously the path the #9. C - Senden, A Hain, Frisch, Gaber, Klevin and a player to be named later.

One year rental: Bring in a one year top four guy and take a run at a green banner. The younger portion of the corps gets more time to ripen. Farmer (plus Hain and Senden) tells me what I need to know: this is the plan. Farmer is the right fit: right shot, and can cover if Jandric or Moore "make him like clothesline". - or - Guy with eligibility: A year from now Jandric is done. Frisch will be entertaining FA offers; OTT will be pressuring Kleven. And if Moore were to progress, who knows. Yes, there's a real scenario where the defense could be down to Johnson, Bast, (Sanderson's replacement), and (Ferner's replacement). In this scenario bringing in a guy with more than year (instead of Farmer) would make sense. But, now with Farmer here you're going to only get a fourth-pair guy because there's no minutes. What do I believe we'll be talking about in 12 months? Expected case: A year from now it'll be Moore, Johnson, Bast, (Ferner's replacement), and four well-rounded ready incoming freshmen. Best case: See Expected case but Frisch spends his Covid year at UND (I expect Kleven to go), which also means three freshmen (because one isn't ready). Worst case: Johnson, Bast, (Ferner's replacement), and four well-rounded ready incoming freshmen, and an upperclassman portal. We're off my notions completely with two "rentals". I still believe Kleven is gone after 2022-23. The best case becomes Johnson, Bast, Frisch plays a Covid season, and Moore stays and four unknowns (freshmen and portals). My worst case becomes ... Johnson, Bast, and six unknowns (freshmen and portals). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
