brianvf Posted March 21, 2023 Author Share Posted March 21, 2023 Quote A new rule implemented last September created a 60-day window for transfer activity to take place without penalty. The 60-day time frame begins the day after NCAA Tournament selections are announced, thus today, and will end May 18. Nearly 200 players transferred teams last year. That number was boosted by the NCAA still allowing fifth-year eligibility due to the 2020-21 COVID year. Once that goes away, the number of transfers is expected to subside, though will continue to be much greater than it ever was before. https://www.grandforksherald.com/sports/und-hockey/the-daily-skate-more-than-50-players-enter-the-transfer-portal-in-a-day Quote In all, 52 Division-I men's players entered the transfer portal Monday alone. There are now more than 100 players in the portal. More are expected throughout the week. Quote Forward Noah Prokop, who played two seasons at Omaha and two at Colorado College, will transfer to St. Thomas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid has been a defensive liability since he arrived on campus. As I have stated before, until he got things figured out between his ears, he was going to struggle. Best for both parties that he moves on. Also, he came in a year too early, no where near ready physically or emotionally for college hockey. So, this is on the coaching staff just a bit as well.

Nope, transfer portal is here to stay. Covid was just a “gas on the fire” type activity to the portal as certain players have that one extra year to play with.

Yes. 19-20 the season was halted early due to Covid. 20-21 was the pod season with limited attendance at games and anyone who played that season gets an extra year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say we don't have a problem recruiting Northern Minnesota, we just choose not to offer before there is some junior experience to draw on. Many times the players jump on an offer before that. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why? The 2020-21 season did not count for anyone. It does not count against anyone's "five academic years to complete four seasons of play". No one was given an "extra" year. 2020-21 just didn't count against anyone. UAF didn't play in 2020-21. Jandric played two competitive seasons before at UAF and two after (at UND).

There's a flood on the market with guys looking to use a final year of eligibility based on 2020-21 not counting against them. This is especially true of Ivy players because Ivy rules only give you four academic years on their campuses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like an awesome recruiting violation. Last time I looked Jake could point a kid out to staff but not approach. Same goes for you and me. The only way someone like Jake can talk to a potential recruit is if he had a pre-existing relationship with the recruit or their family. (I knew the Frisch family before Ethan was a recruit.) Bottom liine: See a special player? Tell Bubs or someone in UND Athletics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
