Recruiting: Class of 2017 and Beyond

[ThunderDan]

Mike Daum won conference player of the year three times and he’s from a town of 2500 people.

Did he play for NDSU? Was he from rural ND/MN?
No? Ok, then not sure what your point is as it makes no sense based off my original comment.
And, your using an example of 1 guy. Show me the other 20 rural guys that crushed for SDSU in the last decade.

Thanks

Shut the fuck up, Idiot.

Between Freddy Coleman and Rocky Krueser who were our recruits from the Twin Cities area???

Oh, you know, just the 2 best players we've ever had in the D1 era.

Ben Woodside.
Vinnie Shahid

You are really triggered over this...
800-273-8255 is the number for the Suicide Prevention Line (just in case)

Love Vinne's game, but he doesn't sniff the Top 5 list of Bison players in D1 era.

Ben was BEFORE Freddy Coleman and Vinnie was AFTER Rocky.

Ben Woodside is not from the Twin Cities.
He is from Albert Lea

1. Your list contains 2 rural ND/MN players, so not sure if you actually read my original comment, as this makes no sense to it.. And "contributing" is a pretty stupid thing to try and prove a point lol. Playing minutes and actually having an impact and being good are 2 different things. As I stated before, I'll give everyone Marshall Bjorklund...that's literally the only one from the last decade. (not to mention that Taylor Braun is from a suburb of a major metro area, so not sure why he's on the list.)

I specifically did not quote you. I hoped you would cut your extensive losses and move on.

My list contains 5 Bison players, not 2 as you say - sigh...
My list contains 5 current rural ND/MN players who are going P6.
My list contains 2 future Bison players, plus one more from the immediate area.

Here are some of your comments
(as you keep trying to move the goalposts)

Not wrong about farm boys coming to play for the basketball team in the D1 era. Nothing about my comment was incorrect.
You got maybe 2 guys tops that were good and came from rural areas? Out of 11 years of recruits in D1? I'll give you Marshall Bjorklund and....well shit, that actually is the only rural one. I guess I'll give you one guy then.

5>1

I just look at facts. And the facts are that recruiting rural kids from ND or MN does not typically produce players who are great. I'm not saying they can't be a diamond in the rough, but look at past history buddy. They usually sit at the end of the bench.

Hmm, 5 current rural kids from ND or MN with P6 offers......

DII? D3?

The random once a decade D1? Then yes, you are correct. They produce "talent"

Are the consistent top 25 teams hunting rural MN/ND for new studs?

I rest my case.
