9 of the 15 players on the all conference teams were NCAA transfers INTO the Summit league. The portal goes both ways. Teams are also bringing in the highest rated freshman they ever have. The league was rated 17th in the country based on NET. It’s normally 23-25. The league is in a great spot 

I agree with 60% of your post but barring upsets most projections have our regular season champion and tournament champion getting a 16 seed which places our conference in the bottom 4 for all practical purposes.

That’s because it took Omaha a while to gel and figure out roles. They didn’t play well in the non conference season and it killed their net ranking. I think most people agree they’re playing closer to the level of a 14 or even 13 seed

Omaha is at best 16 seed and I am not sure where we could have play in game. They have no wins over any rated division I opponents other than in conference. I looked back 10 years highest summit conference seatings were 12 and 13 by ORU and SDSU  30  win teams even then they got first round games like Ohio State and Providence still traditional powers. If they add more teams I will bet number small midmajor will be in the play in games.  I may be old but I have been fan of UND basketball and my experience of getting fan interest yes winning is important but also people get involved with teams that they know the team players and this happens when players have played for school couple years. This turnover of players every year doesn’t create this interest look if this was case as juco players what kind of crowds they play in front of or media coverage they get. I am sorry that some of you don’t get it but it’s just more than numbers it’s about players and fans investing in these players it just doesn’t happen in few games.  We had this in past if you look we had better crowds watching basketball going back over 50 years than we do now. Do the research  and this when grand Forks were much smaller than now and school was much smaller this was case both for men’s and women’s basketball. Just my point of view  but I will still be fan going forward.

Anybody have any guys they would like UND to target in the portal?

I like Creighton Morisch 6’10 from USF, was first team all NSIC and DPOY. I believe he has 1 year of eligibility.

Sounds like NDSU is early leader in the clubhouse for Morisch.

Wylee Delorme from UMary is in the portal. 

I dont think he is a D1 player yet. Had a great end of the season with UMary but would prefer targeting a true big man or point guard

I don’t necessarily disagree, but it may or may not be noteworthy given there was some discussion of him on this board recently, he finished the season pretty strong and it comes shortly after the Eaglestaff announcement. If Sather is back, and depending on how many players transfer out, I wouldn’t be shocked if UND has some interest.

Carson Johnson from MSUM would be nice. Unfortunately he’ll be a St Thomas Tommie 

How confident are you on this? Would think this would make UST favorites next year.

His gf is signed to play at St Thomas. He’d also be a great fit in that system

Good point, we’ll see what happens this next week portal wise for UND and how many scholarships are available.

He’s in the portal due to a coaching change. Sounds like only 5 or 6 guys left on UMARY until a new coach is hired.
