What is this? UNI player to NDSU?

[Hammersmith]

I wonder what his graduate courses are in? Is it something that UNI doesn't have? Maybe the guy just has his head on straight and sees a way to pay for another year towards a masters degree that he could not get at UNI. He might just be looking out for what is best for his family and with him being familiar with Klieman it makes it a smoother transition.

You have to love taking a coach and then a player from UNI though. Has to get under Farleys skin.

I posted and deleted something similar to the following because I wasn't certain it was accurate. A little more research seems to confirm it. NDSU offers 117 graduate degrees. UNI offers 12. Included in NDSU's list of offerings are a certification, masters and doctorate in Andre's field(gerontology according to UNI bio page). The certificate and masters are also available online, so Andre could finish the degree while working after his football eligibility is completed. It's easy to forget how different NDSU is academically compared to many of our athletic peers.

Good information. So basically the more programs we offer, the odds of landing quality athletes goes up. Especially jucos and transfers. Even more reason to get behind NDSU and demand more funding. There's a reason SDSU fans were excited when they added engineering since it was a significant advantage. Of course our engineering program is first class but you have to start somewhere

This is not correct at all. Please, try and do some research before you just post false statements about someone.

There is a difference between a degree and a program. If you would have attended school beyond 8th grade, you would be smart enough to recognize the difference.

As a fellow Land Grant University, I have a hunch that SDSU did not just recently add engineering, unless you're remembering back to 1881.

I believe the rule is that it HAS to be something different that what is offered at your previous school. Its intentions are for academic reasons only, such as if you were at a school and wanted to get your Masters in some science program or whatever that your current school does not have, you are allowed to go to a school that does have that program without penalty as long as you have graduated. Its simply a loophole that is used.

Looks like he played one year at safety and another at corner. Given the fact we're deeper at corner is it fair to assume he's going to play safety?

Corner
Marcus - Pierre - Champion - Colvin - CJ Smith - Boyd

Safety
Heagle - Dudzik - Ollman - Shepherd - Gion

Gion and Ollman are good special team players but Ollman looked good in spot duty starting last year.

Looks like Joey Sonnenfeld is listed as a linebacker now

LOL..Calling out Hammersmith for being wrong regarding anything related to academic issues is like calling out Mark Zuckerberg for being wrong regarding anything related to Facebook.

You have no idea who you insulted, sport.

Butthurt much?

If someone that cannot differentiate between a program and a degree is regarded as your most distinguished academic mind on this board, than that says quite a lot about your board.
