Yup

But with Kaminski here and Sulik looking good he may have made the decision that no matter what he was not the GUY

I would have waited until the 2024 season was over. A player sticking it out and supporting his teammates would be more attractive on the open market of the transfer portal. I wish him well regardless.

Feeney would have played this year.

But the portal is closed and he can't go anywhere until December. And I can't see why it wouldn't be a year of eligibility whether he's on a team or not. 

Not surprised he (or someone) left, just not seeing how the logistics and timing make sense. 

My guess is that this year won’t count against his eligibility since he left before the first game or something.  Only thing that actually makes sense.  Otherwise it would be obvious to stay to the end of the season.

Kids obvi couldn't tell the truth if they thought otherwise. 

When I was directly competing with another player for a job we both told the Herald how well we got along and no animosity.  In truth, I thought he was a smug SOB and he didn't like me either. 

 

Same thing happens in local political races. I beat out a REAL jerk 4 years ago….arrogant SOB as perceived by many… now he is financing a very awesome 30 year old to run against me. I called the young man up, wished him well, and I could foresee no problems. He agreed. And I meant it. But the jerk behind this… not so. 
I would assume it happens on sports teams too.

I always thought there was an eligibility clock thing and google AI is telling me that’s the case. Idk not digging too deep

Not a good look for UND that good players are leaving 

Take a seat. A kid that is willing to walk away from his team after getting beat out says more about him than any other aspect of a team.

Am I reading this right, this year counts against him?

would only leave 2 years left for him

Wouldn’t it only leave one? He’s a redshirt junior and beyond the Covid year.

Was thinking this was his 3rd year here

if that’s the case he would have been better off staying and deciding after the season, wonder if he knew the rules

They didn't want him out of HS...not sure they how much they'd be jumping for joy to take him after getting beat out by a PWO. Not that they wouldn't take him for depth purposes....but not sure they would do it thinking he is their next 'Dude' at QB. But hey they did want our OC so you never know

Not defending anyone but the players that have left since December would be one heck of a FCS team.

Romfo gets beat up in first game due to our freshman lineman

Agree. However unless as someone mentioned he could transfer somewhere before school starts and play this year, it's extremely puzzling why he would leave. Doing nothing and not practicing all fall won't improve him any. And as someone else said,  I do think he would have played a little this year. Romfo may run more too, if he gets singed up Trey would have had his chance. I totally don't get him leaving now unless he has something in mind. We will find out soon enough I'm sure.

On paper, but as the saying goes, if I had to go to war I would not want to depend on any of them to "have my back". They walked away.

Trey gave it his best shot at UND. Didn't work out. Too talented to waste time on the bench his whole career. He wants to play FB which is a limited window time wise.

BTW....how many of your have switched jobs/careers looking for a better opportunity?? How many here wanted Tommy pushed out for a better QB option?

I'd feel much better if he was given some playing time last year.

I didn’t want Tommy pushed out for a better QB, I thought if he stayed the others would leave because of lack of playing time.

it happened anyway

Barring injuries our QB room is just fine for the future. 

[zonadub]

Can he drop to D3 or NAIA and play this year? Especially NAIA, aren’t the rules different?

[SIOUXFAN97]

did trey leave bc he was told if romfo fails or gets hurt it jerry's time so he was qb3?

[MinnDak]

Who knows what goes on. Wouldn’t be the first time there was a sports conflict. 
 

QB order: Romfo, Kaminsky, Hentges, Sulik. First 3 sound like they are right there. Romfo we will know soon enough. Kaminsky looks like a college QB and coaches son, quick and good arm. Hentges apparently looked really good with the offense but was #4 so limited look overall. Coaches kid and can really move and throw it sounds like. Sulik needs a couple years. 

I think Quincy should play in this situation some. Maybe a grinding drive or two or end of half type offense. He’s such a man when he’s in there and his short yard plays are so devastating for the other team. Plus the other team will have to practice  for his plays. How does a defense adjust for Romfo and Quincy? That’s an interesting concept. Does he ever throw deep in practice still?

With Q spending probably 90 percent of his time at TE and then just the short yardage stuff at QB, I probably don't want him there throwing passes. Unless he chucks it deep on a fly pattern or something like you were maybe getting at or something super basic. But wouldn't want him dropping back and throwing over the middle.

Five calendar years to complete four seasons of play is simplest way to think of it now that we are post-Covid.
