Skokna and lots of players reach the point where they are moving in in life. Tommy already scoring a TD at his home state at Michigan State has gotta be icing on the cake. What a career. I heard from a 'good source' that Tommy had is masters already or was within a few credits of it and just wanted to go home to Michigan and play somewhere there.

Will this trend continue once we hit the meat of our schedule (the other Dakota schools, for example)? That is what we still don't know.

The Sicatoka Posted September 23 Share Posted September 23 Failing to prepare is preparing to fail. We see shortcomings but it's working for now. If IF the OC is doing his job he's working hard to improve every QB on the roster to have options when W becomes L. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not things that are a easy mid season fix. He can definitely make plays with his feet. Why not some true ROPs?

I’m still thinking we may be saving Romfo running true RPOs for when we need it. Time will tell. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of defeats the purpose of having a QB that can't throw a football but supposedly has great legs if he never keeps the ball on those RPO's...

UND Football Fan Posted September 23 Share Posted September 23 10 minutes ago, GoodGood said: I think teams are deathly afraid of his 11 rushes for 10 yards the last two weeks My hope (it is a hope) we see more QB runs in the bigger games. NDSU typically in the past did not run the QB unless it was against a better team. There was a few times during the few games where it looked if he kept the handoff he could hit the edge and get some yards. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post CMSioux Posted September 23 Popular Post Share Posted September 23 14 hours ago, Sioux94 said: Here are his stats for the year. 55% completion percentage and 5 INT's with 4TD's in 5 games. Yet we can't question whether or not the Wisconsin player of the year with all of the measurable and a PWO from Wisconsin, son of a coach might not give us a better chance to win? I was, have, and will root for Romfo to do well. But if you look at the stats and watch the games.....it hasn't been good. Yes we won the last 3 games, that doesn't mean we couldn't have won them with Jerry starting. Im sure Jerry could run the RPO and hand off 95% of the time. I don't like to knock a kid, especially from ND, but so far appears to be the poorest passing QB that UND has had in 40 years. Not sure how you could even dispute that so far....but hey let's roll with him because our team is to fragile to handle us making a change at QB. Did every other UND QB that didn't start until they were a junior or senior get to use the excuse......"they haven't played in a real game in 4 years". I don't remember that excuse ever being made in the past, usually it made us feel good that a new starting QB was an upper classmen and has been in the system. I will be rooting for Romfo and his passing to improve, because unless he gets injured he is obviously not leaving the field. For the most part I backed and stood up for Tommy because there were definitely a few Tommy haters, and while Tommy had a few limitations he was pretty damn good. I'm still on board with the ones that see the players every day in practice and in meetings to make the decisions. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Irish Posted September 23 Popular Post Share Posted September 23 Wow - a lot of pushback from my post - No, I didn't watch the QB competition in camp. No, I'm not saying Romfo didn't win the starter's job in pre-season. What I am saying is that we have had 4 non-conference games and his highly recruited back-up has played exactly 1 snap - a kneel down - this after the other highly recruited QB saw the writing on the wall and is transferring. And after watching Romfo pass for 11 yards with 2 picks in the first half he didn't get a sniff. That, in my opinion, is extremely short sighted and sends a poor message to our back-ups. Vintage stubborn Bubba though. We will soon get into some games where short-arming simple outs and swing passes will cost us and no one else has any game experience. Not great roster management. And much of Romfo's running success is due to our great O line play. 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how giving the back-up 1 kneel down snap in 4 non-conference games is working hard to prepare every QB..

Props to Freuchte for having trust in him and scheming Bo open. I do agree that these simple throws need to start being made or else we need to look at Kaminski.
