The last time i saw a guy at a position that didn't look like the others was Matt Waletzko. He just looked massive...moved well out there. I assumed he would start in week one by what i saw but it took a few weeks or an injury to get in the staring lineup around week five or six iirc. Jerry reminds me of him. If you didn't know anything about UND's qb's and you checked out a practice or scrimmage you would think he's qb1. He stands out from the other three that much to me. so.... had a good commit but left for FBS....cedric case is currently playing qb at central missouri (d2) picked up schuster....no one else at the d1 level wanted him so pretty easy to pickup quincy had hype....but i guess couldn't throw or run? fenney...jury is stil out but looks promising... So since 2013 our qb's were are... 2013 joe mollberg-highly sought after...sucked...moved to TE ryan bartels-played a bit than lost spot to keaton---had fbs offer but ending up sucking jake hanson-local kid kurt palendach-left after one year after seeing that mollberg was the future....currently a pro quarterback....in Japan. 2014 keaton-best qb bubba's had...gutty fast smart qb 2015 brad heidelberg-horrible 2016 eric prater-? 2017 brock boltman-moved to wr and renamed the brockstar nate "axel" ketteringham-second best qb bubba's had....should never have another down for the sioux after cussing out fans on the catwalk andrew zimmerman-played a bit...got hurt...not good. 2018 noah grover? 2019 tommy schuster-current starter-1 playoff win (covid season) 2020 spring quincy vaughn-moved to te...can't throw or run reid neal-? ethan postler-? 2021 trey feeney-current qb2 simon romfo-current qb3 2022 colton hackel? 2023 jerry kaminski-soon to be qb1 You answered your own question yiu asked yesterday regarding “what has Danny done”? - he’s turned a QB that no D1s wanted into a top QB in the most challenging conference in FCS. 10 Quote

Also managed to keep his back-up on campus the last few years (who flipped from his Old Dominion commitment), find a role for him and has created a pretty impressive QB room both on and off the field. 6 Quote
UND-FB-FAN Posted August 30, 2023 Posted August 30, 2023 Danny Freund is good coach. He’s the coach of the future (and present) as of now. Just my opinion at this point … 2 Quote

Glad he was named Associate HC and can start playing a bigger role now and can be seen as the next head coach....hopefully not in the too distant future. Quote

No agenda here...but 54-45 since 2014 isn't good enough for me. I believe that we are doing the right things to right the ship...and 8-3 is the expectation this year. It's not a bad thing to have expectations. If they aren't met...there will be empty seats in the Alerus for non-SU games...that's a fact! Also...you don't think having 3-4 conference opponents within driving distance has led to increased ticket sales? That and having NDSU/SDSU on the schedule every year? I'm not so sure that ticket sales have gone up because there are more diehard UND fans. It's more so that opponent interest is higher. 1 Quote

That said that wasn't the focus of my original point. My point remains that if UND is staring down 6-5 the bandwagon will have a lot of room. We've seen that happen before...it'll happen again. I'm cautiously optimistic that that won't be an issue this year, but others aren't...and an argument can be made to justify why that is the case. Quote
SIOUXFAN97 Posted August 30, 2023 Posted August 30, 2023 i guess the question is did moving to summit/mvfc/midcon/gateway conference increase demand for tickets for new/returning siouxfans or did the increase come from visiting fans of closer fan bases....brookings, fargo, vermillin? Quote

My guess it's a mixture of both. It helps playing Teams you feel like you know....and or dislike. When we played Montana State or Montana at home a few years ago I believe the attendance was always higher for those and it wasn't all due to their fans traveling. The Montana game next year I'm sure will have pretty good attendance. I hate and want to beat Montana as bad or maybe even more as I do NDSU. Team performance and having a strong and fun team to watch is the most important thing I think though. Need to build momentum this year and continue it going forward. 3 Quote

Every school has empty seats even the one to the south, SDSU might be the exception this year. Quote

As a tailgater it's pretty easy to notice visiting fans. SU was noticeable (plus many were noticeable by the chips on their shoulders, SDSU and USD were a blip). 1 Quote

Kab Posted August 30, 2023 Posted August 30, 2023 So appreciate them while you still can tv games, iPads, electronic games , prices of tickets and eats many reasons for lower attendance Quote
