SiouxDini Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 Then stay an hour or two each day. We need/deserve more coverage at this level. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siouxperman8 Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 Sorry if this has been discussed. I’m traveling and not connected very well. per Miller mailbag - talking about changes with Schwenzfier and Dosch - changes are going to be more about effective teaching and a positive culture. Should we read anything into the bolded part re: past D coordinator? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eventually, regardless of what we’re talking about, if you take on too much, you get spread too thin. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJS Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 Was just listening to the 360 podcast, breaking down the O-Line. Was not aware that Carroll is out for the year with a back injury. Huge loss. Both Centers that played last year will not be playing this year. Does anyone know when this injury happened? Recent? They have four working at Center right now, Borud, Lavell, Olson, Buxa.

Got to clean those up but Carroll had the yips with snaps as well. Depth behind Borud is green lol at center but miles ahead talent wise and body size than previous years.

That's why I was wondering about timing. Was Carroll healthy at the start of Fall camp, or have they been working with those four (that are healthy) the entire time? Would be nice to give a 60/40 split against Drake to the top two on the depth chart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Helping with drills and such. Just not participating. Peyton, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not going to call out Tom, because I definitely appreciate what he contributes, but from a fan's standpoint, I'd definitely love more reporting to ramp up the season and build up the excitement. Maybe a periodic position overview, similar to what the 360 guys do. Can't overstate how much I appreciate what they do to supplement coverage. Look forward to their podcasts whenever they come out.

nodak651 Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 16 hours ago, MoSiouxFan said: I asked him about that via email and he said that he usually uses the fall scrimmage as a time to stop the daily reports, as it's too hard with his other work duties to spend 3-4 hours at practice. Really enjoy his reports every fall; he does a great job. Makes sense. Wish he would say so publicly, or at the end of the last update, because it would keep people (me) from waiting for updates that aren't coming, which leaves the impression that they are being lazy or something, for lack of a better word.

Their sports coverage is the only reason I subscribe to the paper and I appreciate Tom as well. If they just randomly stop covering stuff, it makes it harder to justify the subscription. It's pretty crazy that the Forum doesn't have an FCS guy that covers UND and NDSU and the FCS in general, neutrally. The Fargo guys are homers and heavily biased towards NDSU and against UND, and Tom isn't a full time beat reporter. They do a great job with The Rink Live, where they cover many programs neutrally. Just interesting that the coverage for Football isn't remotely similar. While I'm complaining, this annoys me (not an option for UND Athletics as a whole): 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FSSD Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 Tom and Schlossman, I have a subscription to GFH because of you. Keep up the great work. I assume if more subscribed, we would see more coverage for football/basketball. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They publish MPR articles. I also appreciate the GFH sports coverage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiouxFan100 Posted August 23, 2023 Share Posted August 23, 2023 Rule changes for college football Running clock: The clock will now continue to run after an offense gains a first down, except if it's in the second or fourth quarter and less than two minutes remain. Previously, the clock was stopped after a first down and started once the chains were set. No consecutive timeouts: This rule prohibits a team from using consecutive team timeouts, a move usually meant to ice kickers. No extended quarters: The first and third quarters of a game will not be extended for an un-timed down if the quarter ends on a defensive penalty. Instead, the down will be played at the beginning of the following quarter. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
