Speaking of facts, I heard most of the interview, and you're right he didn't mention NDSU by name, he never mentioned any school by name, he was being very generic. I don't recall him mentioning any particular player by name in regards to those incidents either. So in conclusion, if Obarski was the only player they thought they had that we got, how is that part of it not right, unless there is another player we ended up getting under similar circumstances? He mentioned at least 4 players that verballed, that they lost to other schools.

In terms of being unethical, or even whining, Mussman was not referring to NDSU.

ps...did the Bison have any interest in the younger Gratzek brother from Stephen-Argyle?

I agree. I think he was referring to the man that walks on water.

Fair enough. I withdraw the "Douche" comment on the assumption that Flanders is correct. Sorry for basing commentary on hearsay. :blush:

Just to clarify my earlier statement, I didn't say or mean to imply he was complaining about NDSU being unethical specifically. But he did mention losing a recruit to the Bison and shortly thereafter was talking about some, what he termed, unethical recruiting practices by other schools. But you are correct in stating that he did not refer to NDSU specifically in that regard. My bad if that is what my earlier post came across as implying.

This class looks pretty good. I paticularly like the defensive guys that we got. With the addition of the JUCO DL, we won't have to rely so heavily on the young guns right away next year. These defensive backs look impressive.

Unrelated: check out this Norther pic that my brother e-mailed me. The guy caught this 56" Northern while bringing in a 36" on on his line. Holy crap that is a huge fish!!!

I like the quality of the four preferred walk-ons even though they aren't getting any money. The two ND walk-ons, Duchscher from Rugby could turn out like the Belquists at receiver, and the Bismarck QB has a good chance with his skills. Seemed like the Breck kid was on the highlights every Friday night.

POPPEL is a MEAN OL FARM BOY FROM BRECK!!

HE WILL BE ON SPECIAL TEAMS>> YOU REMEMBER THAT NAME!

Great job to Coach Bohl and staff. Good to see a Rugby boy on the team. When was the last young man from there on the team? Dan Schneibel in the 70s?
