Re: Transfer Portal - 2024
I am not asking for any positivity around here, lol. I do think we are better....in a league where most teams got worse.
We lost a stud. He was a horse for a month. I think Jackson Moni is going to be a terrific, but different player than Morgan was. But, the other departures were not playing or helping. It certainly appears that we have added some contributors. Depth is critical.
The kid today, I am simply hoping for a fresh start for him. Face it, last year the team wasn't clicking. Not on the same page. We needed a large change.
**Great point on losing Howard. I did forget about that. i had high expectations for him, and when his coach left NW Missouri State, I was worried. It was pretty obvious he was going to Drake immediately. That one hurt. Agreed.
Looking for a fresh start on the men's team this year. JMO.
Re: Transfer Portal - 2024
Dave needed to adapt or die at this point, so I am excited about who we have added and I want to be optimistic but I was burned pretty bad last year.
Re: Transfer Portal - 2024
Let's be honest. As long as Richman is the coach, getting excited for Bison basketball is going to be tough no matter who they get. New year, new players, new excitements, and what have you, year in and year out.
Re: Transfer Portal - 2024
I am absolutely not trying to change your mind. Clearly some of you are hurt! LOL. Love the passion.
Here is my point. Now, when you suck (and we did), we have the opportunity to change things quickly. Flipping a roster and being able to get "older" in a hurry is fun and a perk of this new world. I would rather only suck for one season and not several. As an optimist, I get excited for what could be. Other teams have been gutted. League is down.

“We’ll be fine. Everyone else sucks” sums up where this program is at right now pretty well.
Re: Transfer Portal - 2024
I like the Moni and Watkins additions. I doubt we see a Moni type transfer every year though. The other guys seem very very meh to me.

That sums up the Summit League and the current state of low major D1 basketball right now with the Transfer portal, not just NDSU.

This would fit nicely on our warm-up shirts.
Re: Transfer Portal - 2024
We aren't done adding. Excited about this one. But, I still get excited about hoops! LOL.

Saw a Bison Report tweet about a signee as well, very interested to see who it is. I thought we were full but apparently Bradley must still be a walk-on.
