My guess is that SDSU and USD don't need to recruit ND because they recruit and DEVELOP enough talent from SD, MN, NE and IA. The development of talent is lacking amongst the coaches at NDSU

But there is a difference between saying "the program sucks, go somewhere else" and saying "the program needs to improve". The fact that the program needs to improve is the topic of 90% of this...

I hope I'm not judged by my high school days 40 years ago. I also hope I'm not judged by the actions of my parents when they were in high school. Tough crowd.
Maybe her kids went to Shanley because...

So the choice is lie to a recruit or leave the team? What do you tell a recruit/parents that ask "Why are kids leaving this program like a sinking ship?" This is a potential teammate.

Quote from Phelps in a Dom Izzo piece stated the program was moving toward being competitive in th SL. What a joke

Even if the administration thinks the program is improving (???), the attrition rate is alarming. Since last year - Sarah J, Reilly J, Macy K, Anna G, Autumn O, Kennedy C - and others, I'm sure....

Kicked off the team over the weekend.

Does the athletic admin do any kind of exit interview with these players that are leaving? You would think some common themes would emerge. Would say something to the admin, wouldn't it?

If you want to believe she is not one of the top 8-10 players on the team (which I don't believe), she is at least a team-first player. Every year the FB team has guys that work at practice, pushing...

Mine too unless there is a coaching change.

Healthy but getting screwed by the staff in many ways. Think she'll leave if the staff isn't fired.

This program is a sinking ship and will not get fixed until a new staff is in place. Giving Walseth another year is crazy. Program has shown no growth and there is no evidence that she knows how to...
