Huge get there, maceo is a stud and should only continue to get better. Fairly raw. Him going to MN was a layup though.

Are you sure about that? I feel like we were warned a few times this could be the case.

From what  read over the iasr few weeks, yes.

There was articles on the 2 Moorhead kids both saying they weren’t committing right away. Schlossman also said 10 top prospects he spoke to all said they weren’t committing right away. As soon as that news came out, everyone should have known. Until the top kids commit it’s going to be slow. A lot of schools are probably waiting on decisions from those guys and won’t move on to other options until decisions are made from them. 
 

I think it’s good. Kids should take their time making decisions.

Gallant to Harvard…doubt we were in on him but this seems to be the “commitment” thread. Harvard has a really good class going.

I’ll never forget the Malone hit as we were in that corner when it happened. Boom out go the lights

Of the 20 big recruit names on the Schloss list that were eligible to commit on 8/1, only two have committed thus far. 

O'Neill to UND and McKinney to Michigan.

The schloss is def missing some higher end kids…PuckPreps 3-5 rankings are gone. I’m guessing schloss knew we were out on a few kids and didn’t include them.

He said his list is tailored to more NCHC/Big 10 recruiting areas so there will be some Eastern kids not included on his list.

In other news, I saw Cullen Potter started following UND on Instagram yesterday…

Can anyone post a list or is that not allowed? I can't read the article and have been wondering who the 20 are?

Schloss did say that the list isn't the Top 20 players, it's tailored more towards UND with some other big names sprinkled in.

Definitely worth noting. He was one who was following a handful of schools, but not UND. If they can just pull one from the Mooney / Potter / Hensler group.

I’m telling you…that kid is special. I’ve seen him practice/play a bunch. That would be unreal if we could get him. I’m assuming that’s highly unlikely though.

I know he almost played in Pitt last year before deciding on Dallas…maybe we could get both Mooney and Potter

Yeah I wouldn’t say I expect him to commit to UND but until he commits somewhere there’s always a chance.

Heck, I’d settle for two.
