    No big deal. Its all part of the recruiting game.

    So if they do sign, its against ncaa regulations for other cosches to contact signees. If he didnt sign anything, its against ncaa regulations for coaches to talk about unsigned recruits. Something is missing here.

    Bigger question is why didn't UND announce his signing? Just a re-tweet several days after the signing period ended......

    I've seen him play. Good player, good athlete but someone that we can likely replace. I'm sure there are a few more like him on the recruiting list.

    Because he had committed to NDSU...see the link to a post on Facebook by his mother (personal friend, so no, I'm not creeping)...

    https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?f...type=3&theater

    While I'm disappointed he won't be playing for NDSU, can't blame the kid for taking the scholarship offer and wish him nothing but the best, except when he plays against the Bison, then I wish him and his teammates resounding failures

    Still baffled by the rules surrounding walk ons, when can they be announced, are they free game, and if so, for how long?
