scholarship or PWO?  

I think scholarship. I would guess he’s our starting PG. 

[SIOUXFAN97]

sources say bronny wants to be a pilot!!!!!!!!!!! let's go sather!

[ND-fan]

see another transfer from Summit Touko Tainamo from Denver is in the portal. The drain continues from the Summit in talent.

[GoodGood]

Meanwhile Omaha decides to go after two guys that struggled to get minutes for ndsu. Thats one strategy I suppose 

[ND-fan]

That shows Dave Richmond had serious problems going on with his team last year in the locker room. I think his basketball style has been winning formula in the past, but problem is finding players who are going to buy into this style. It has helped in past when they were winning but last couple of years that hasn't been the case. I also think with the portal he is going to have hard time finding players that want to go through his style of basketball for four years. I also think he has been losing his fan base too because his style is not very fun type of basketball with low scoring and real physical games of defense.  I wonder if he can adapt to the changes in college basketball with the portal and not having kids, he developed from high school leaving earlier for number of different reasons.

I’d say from my sense, NDSU fans are getting tired of Richman. They’ve had a lot of success though under him and are almost always playing their best ball at the end of the year. This year seems like an outlier, for now.

They call him the Bubba of Bison Basketball.

BJ is visiting or has visited Oregon St and Cal.

 

I would be surprised if Minnesota is an option, but I could be wrong.

Okay now I would guess this is Woodson. 

[sioux24/7]

Here’s one. I’m looking forward to seeing him play.

Need to just have a graphic design student hop on as a student manager. Or there has to be some way to partner with a cooperative work experience class or something

Sometimes guys make their own graphics... this could be one of those.

Maybe, as much as you’ll hate to admit it, kids nowadays care about this kind of stuff, so could be something to offer/send to recruits regardless if we dont do it already 

[McBuckets]

So with 2 guys signed, Reggie and Woodson. We are looking at 2 scholarships available, correct?

[forksandspoons]

Pretty intrigued by Thomas! Looks like he can really score the ball and shoots very well from deep. Hopefully, he can be a steady PG first, complimented by solid shooting and defense. 

[UND1983]

Would Connor Kraft bring anything to the table?

No. 

[SD UND]

Really like the signing of the Woodson kid... 6'7 lefty that has can shoot it... his stroke looks really pure from the little clips I saw. Has good size and his game should translate well to the Summit League..

[SD UND]

So hypothetically we have 2 left to give out... with 3 potential targets from what it looks like from the outside:

Mier Panoam, Hurlburt, and Moni

 

No idea what Hurlburt's recruitment will look like, Moni will be a hard get, Panoam is talented (I think), but not sure how he fits in with current roster- He seems like he's comparable to Eli King.

Current Roster:

1's- Thomas

wings- Eaglestaff, King, Mara, Kraft, Doppler

4's- Mayar, Woodson, Bothun

5's Amar, Mathews, Erikson

I thought King would be able to provide some PG minutes, but I was wrong

Would think they’d be looking to only land one of Hurlburt and Moni, right? I guess if both come, great, but they seem a bit redundant in playing style. I could be wrong. Hurlburt having 3 years of eligibility is intriguing but also in todays world it’s all 1 year deals.

Yeah, I don't think they get both
