Yup, Tyree fooled a lot of people... credit to him, he fooled everyone but Hoops.

To be honest, I have no angst toward Tyree.  I assume he is switching schools to be closers to home (St. Thomas).  He has a young family and those things take priority.  He could have very much enjoyed his time at UND and this is still a very reasonable action.  I thought that he carried himself very well while wearing the Green and White.  I thought that he had a great season.  And his play really changed the season for UND.  I again, wish him all the best and congratulate him on his new family - it is truly a blessing.

Hoops other theory still holds true as well... UND in fact did kick him off the team for having a child.

When proven wrong just go back to the tired statement about being kicked off because of having a kid.

Sounds like we will have a couple visits this week. PG and a forward.

Hope we can grab someone helpful from free agency or make a nice international pickup.

I’ve been waiting for this one. Don’t know if he will end up here but it would make sense.

Serious question, other than being 6-11 what does he offer?  He averaged 2 minutes a game this year for Colorado.  The few times he saw the court, he looked very slow.

That’s my question. I know he was pretty highly recruited out of high school but I’m not positive if he’s good or not. Never saw him play in college and was always surprised that when he was at Enderlin they weren’t able to do more.

Is this the twins from a few years back? Is Joe the better of the two?

Yes and yes. His brother Gus is at Northwestern but I believe he’s there more for school than ball.

No. Joe is better than Chad

Yeah no chance Joe is like Chad. I played some pick up with Chad and we absolutely torched him. When I say we, a bunch of rec city league players haha.

A 6'11" big guy that would come in and be the 2nd best shooter on the team. Has solid skills with 3 years left of eligibility to he can expand on as he gets older. Could play on the wing and in the post at this level. 

To try say he doesn't offer anything because he averaged 2 MPG on a Pac 12 NCAA tournament team as a redshirt freshman coming from a Class B ND school is a bit absurd. 

Don’t think he’ll ever develop to play on the wing, but definitely offers some ball handling ability to attack other 5s. Tons of potential that is definitely worth a shot. Guards grow on trees, good luck finding quality big guys at this level

6'11" and can shoot..................let's get er done sather (and trey!!!)

A redshirt freshman that has played a total 25 minutes of college bb will be the 2nd best shooter at UND next year...that might be bit more absurd.

I'm not a great basketball mind, nor did I stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night, but I know truth when I see it.

All Ive heard is about how Kraft is the 2nd best shooter on the team and he is redshirt walk on who has only played 10 minutes in an exhibition and missed his only attempt.

I mean...Hurlburt is probably worth an offer...but I wouldn't stake my coaching career on him if it were me...but that's just my opinion!

I think he is 100% worth an offer! Local kid with pretty high potential. Hasn’t proven himself at the college level at all yet and although he had a great individual HS career his teams did underperformed. So I understand the concern but I am sure there will be MANY teams reaching out to him and hopefully UND can get him on the roster.

Those high school teams had some other athletes as well. The Games i watched the brothers rarely played in the paint.
