Still have Sulak and Jerry. Coach made it sound like they have improved. Listen  to 360 podcast.

I didn't see anything last year that made me think Jerry wouldn't turn out to be a good QB.  Still tickled that he didn't get more garbage time.  That alone made me glad to see bubba go.

Commitments in March and early April.

Maybe someone can tell us who was the earliest commitment prior to this in years past.

They're identifying who they like early and offering before camp season. And actually getting them to commit.

We'll see how it works out.

All I know is that Polasek is losing his mind and berating recruits for committing to us so early and before camp evaluations. A certain parent of a certain recruit was not impressed with Polasek's response and lack of professionalism. 

So I'd say what we're doing is paying dividends in the short term.

As I said, we'll have to wait and see about the long term.

But I'm f**king here for all of it.

Can't wait for Bison Dunce or Simple Dan or whatever his name is to respond.

It's like chumming for sharks.

I am SHOCKED that Polasek would do something like that

Correct. 
it appears to be the correct strategy for UND and is working out so far.

Polasek and the entire Fargo ag college posse can f*ck off… pointless school is a waste of taxpayer dollars. They all think they can walk on water and their sh*t don’t stink, you could say.

So how many offers does a commit have to have to be considered "huge"? 6? 10?

Not sure but I would think more than one.

Looking at last 2025 recruiting thread. 

• Karter Peterson TE (Thompson) committed April 2nd last year. 
• Isaiah Wright RB (Fertile-Beltrami) on April 30.  Later de-committed and signed with Duluth
• Charles Langama RB (Maple Grove) on May 11

Good interview

Article by Tom Miller says Paine Parks has worked himself into the starting LB along with Malachi.  Watson LB coach is happy with Paine and expects big step forward the year.

Great to see his progress and improvement. I’m guessing we will see a LB or 2 from the portal to be in the mix.

Does the football team practice on Saturday?  If so what time is practice?

[Hawkster]

Apparently no one told Ken Massey there's a new sheriff in town.   His initial call is 6-5 with basically a tossup on Southern Illinois.   Definitely going to be better than this.          https://masseyratings.com/cf2025/5538

Edited to correct the win/loss figure.

I counted it twice and it is 6-5. I see Northern Iowa as ripe for a road win which would put us at least at 7-4.

You are right.  I transposed the numbers.   I meant 6-5.   Most humble apologies.  

[SiouxHawkGuy]

8-4

[Und Princess]

I'm SUPER excited for Football Season myself. 

[Kab]

That shows 6-6 and has UND beating UNI

 

[SiouxFan100]

Wait and see mode for me. Want to be excited and optimistic like I usually am at this time of the year but have been disappointed so many times.

[Sioux94]

At Kansas State and Montana, then playing the other three Dakota schools makes for 5 tough games. SDSU will be sort of rebuilding though from coaching change and portal transfers.....so we could pull that one off at home. That could be great atmosphere in the Alerus late in the year if we are in contention 

I'd say 7-5, possible 8-4, will be disappointed if we go 6-6. 

[UND-FB-FAN]

Ya’ll weak! Definitely going 11-1 and cruising in the f’n playoffs.
