    Default A new direction

    Time for a new thread. I'm tired of seeing that old one. I'm not saying they are going to win the conference, but let's give this team a chance.

    I listened to the coach last week and she wasnt making excuses. She was laying out the facts and it all made sense. This and watching the game makes me feel pretty positive.
    I like to surround myself with people who share in my inappropriate comments, sarcasm, and random shenanigans

    Great thread.

    Absolutely. In all fairness that thread was started when Dehoff was coach.

    Everyone said it would take a few years before Walseth could recruit players who fit her system. It's all starting to come together. Like I said in another post... 6 freshman, 2 sophomores, and 1 junior. Get these ladies some time to develop their skills and he have one hell of a team. With the SHAC, all these kick ass facilities, and Full Cost Of Attendance... We have the tools now!

    I have nothing to add. The WBB team is going in the right direction.

    Just had to post something to bump this over that other thread.

    This is good to hear. Looks like they are making progress.

    When you play football, you gotta like the taste of blood, And 50 percent of the time, it's your blood.

    It is characteristic of the unlearned that they are forever proposing something which is old, and because it has recently come to their own attention, supposing it to be new.

    Young team is finding their way with leadership of the couple upperclassmen on the floor. Great TEAM effort.

    Good win tonight over South Dakota. Now 2-1 in conference and the loss is a close loss to SDSU.

    Good start to the conference season so far by the ladies.

    I went to NDSU from 1991-1996 during the D2 dominance and saw a lot of great women's basketball. I hope this is the start of sustained winning and competitiveness for a tourney shot on a regular basis.
    The white jerseys are the best. Don't even bother to argue.

    nice effort by the ladies tonight...this program needs to win games to change the culture and get back to the glory days. Nights like this certainly help. Time to keep building and stacking wins!

    And another large recruiting class already signed to add to those 9 players

    Danneka Voegeli - C - 6' 2" - Winona, Minn. (Winona HS)

    Macey Kvilvang - F - 6' 4" - Cando, N.D. (North Star HS)

    Emily Dietz - F - 6' 3" - West Fargo, N.D. (Shanley HS)

    Michelle Gaislerova - G - 5' 11" - Lincoln, Neb. (Lincoln Christian HS) and Gymnazium Pisek in Czech Republic

    NDSU could use some depth and height with their post players
    and this recruiting class addresses that. 2 of the current post players are
    seniors, (6' 1" Brianna Jones, 6' 1" Emily Spier)
    so there will be opportunity next season for the incoming freshmen.

    So if my North Dakota math is correct, that adds up to 13 scholarships.
    Do the ladies get 15? Or are they maxed out at 13?
