The nice thing about 1 site is teams are there in case of storms . Motel rooms can be an issue too in some towns . would love to have some tourney games in GF. ‘Mpls. Would be alternative but crowds would be way smaller. I saw a big sky game the other day, the venue is small and so we’re the crowds 1 Quote

This is guaranteed. Idk the numbers so willing to listen just saying they can count on these dollars. They also have an agreement with the Sanford Center through 2025 I believe with an option for 2026. 1 Quote

ORU was the 4 seed that year. Granted it was Covid so crowds weren’t much of a factor. 1 Quote
SWSiouxMN Posted March 7, 2023 Posted March 7, 2023 So lets look at the current roster Graduated: Sueker People honored on Senior Day: Nero, Danielson, Norman. Lets go with the assumption that all 3 seniors are done in addition to Sueker. So that opens up 4 scholarships plus the 1 vacated by Victor N. not showing up. UND has finally removed all the players with a COVID year if this occurs btw. Seniors (2) : T, Trent Juniors (2): Mathews, Grant Sophomores (4 scholar/2 walk-on) :Brooks, Eaglestaff, Omot, Levias, Hong, Nicholson Freshman (3 scholarship): Doppler, Erikson, and Bothun. This leaves UND with 2 CURRENT open scholarships to use. Projected starting lineup (given returning players) Trent Eaglestaff Omot T/Incoming Player Mathews/T/Incoming player Bench: Brooks Levias Doppler Bothun Erikson Easy decision to slide Eaglestaff to the 2 spot with Trent. As mentioned: UND needs to add to their post depth behind T and Mathews and get their PG of the future on the roster. There is a lot to like here and build off of if they add at those two positions. Of course, other things need to fall in place. 1 Quote

Here we have a local kid looking to move up to D1 and probably will stay semi close to home. Not sure if he has any ties to UND or not. Another plus is it will keep him from going to NDSU. 1 Quote
