Quite possible they learned more about his abilities once they saw him for multiple hours at practice vs. some film previously 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sioux94 Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 So we covered the cost of his tuition for a semester and got nothing out of it. If the coaches told him he wouldn't play that is one thing, but given our need to find safeties...what is the likelihood of that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not necessarily the coaches telling him, but writing could have been on the wall. I mean, playing time would be the only reason that would make sense in this case. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the coaches told him he wouldn't play that is one thing, but given our need to find safeties...what is the likelihood of that? Article in the Herald hinted said he might have been pretty far down on the depth chart based on the reps he got in spring ball. He then got hurt and missed the last part of camp. Per Tom Miller's Article - "Based on when Martens' snaps came during the spring practices, though, it appeared he initially was in a deep group of safeties hoping to break into the two-deep.................... During spring ball, UND started Cole Davis and Ethan Ball at safety, with the next round of reps given to Sutton, Martin, Erkman and Martens."

Im more amazed that WR stay at NDSU than leave.. maybe Landry will change that offense but I doubt it.. A dominant o-line, solid rbs and running QBs.. why throw? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry if I was vague and made it seem like more were leaving. I’m just saying in general. My worry was losing the likes of Jerry, Bo and Trey. I didn’t think about the o-line but should have with the departure of Pawlak. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I missed the spring practices but from some reports it can be a faster offense. Danny changed personnel damn near every down. For a player like Bo. Fast, shifty and quickness. Oh and very smart might receive more targets, catches, yards and TD's. This good news for UND. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shep Posted May 1 Share Posted May 1 I’m having a hard time thinking Bo was under utilized. If he was it’s due to every D watching him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did get the ball plenty but always thought it was weird how often he got rotated out. He should be on the field almost every play IMO. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand that but, my question was more to the effect that why would another school wanna poach em if they haven't shown anything?

CMSioux Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 JMO because of the portal we see: A small town North Dakota kid trade what would have been a legacy career of being a four starter at his Flagship University in his home state. Like Kleinsasser, a lifetime example of state pride for his hometown. Instead that legacy is lost and he will be a footnote at an out of state school. I understand that money was probably involved. That money will be gone in a few years. I understand he has the chance at hitchhiking onto a national championship, tough to argue that. However, it is proven that if you have talent for the next level they will find you. Yes, they make their choice and do what they think is best for themselves at the time. No ill will here. There are few opportunities to become legends in your home state. Those that are, are legends because they stayed. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
