The assumption was brother James would follow him to the Crimson; now what ... If I were snarky I'd say ... BU's NIL offer must've hit the number ... yeah BU, BC, MI, or MN. Would be fun to see them go against the grain though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think both his parents are alums? For sure Dad. His sister is also currently a student at UND. Definitely grew up a UND fan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJS Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 I would be shocked if Zellers doesn't end up at UND. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jk Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 With WI back in the game, I wouldn't be surprised if they charge hard for guys like this. In fact, since they not only recruit nationally but also regionally, I would say that generally recruiting just got a little tougher for UND and MN. That's based on the assumption that the Hastings group is better at both recruiting and coaching than their predecessors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I brought this up already, but was it a Shaugabay type situation? By that I mean UND didn't offer by the time he committed to another school. I'll still stand by it, if UND offered Shaugabay, he would have committed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianvf Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Some big moves upcoming with the Hagens bros and Zellers. Honestly not surprised to see both BU and Harvard losing recruits with how many commitments both of those schools have been getting recently. Reminds me of the Eaves days at UW, where they had like 15-20 recruits lined up for each season. Would be shocked if the Hagens brothers don't end up at one of the Boston schools or UM/UMN, but Zellers would be a great addition to our current group.

Some were saying Green Bay in the USHL but I think that’s after he’s done at Shattuck. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how they will do recruiting against the other blue bloods, although, UW historically a top program. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cberkas Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 Ben Kevan commits to Arizona State. They also added a Slovakian goalie Samuel Urban. Seems like more and more Slovakians are playing NCAA now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s always been a fun player to watch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scpa0305 Posted September 6, 2023 Share Posted September 6, 2023 I doubt we were in on him but Shane Vansaghi committed to Mich State. Benefits of hiring for NTDP coach I assume, they’ve had a very solid recruiting year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The B10 might be more tightly contested this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scpa0305 Posted September 8, 2023 Share Posted September 8, 2023 Ryker Lee to Mich State…great commit. Not really a blue chip but I think this kid will be a high end college player. Late bloomer but skill is off the charts. I was hoping we were in on him. Kind of reminds me of Blake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
