2021 Will Tschetter recently offered by Loyola Chicago.
Maybe the Gophers will soon. They have a 2021 commit from the Alexandria 7 footer.

6’ 9” Andrew Morgan (Waseca) is the one other 2021 offer I can think of.
SDSU and South Dakota offers.

I'm guessing a new coach is coming to gopher land I'm hoping Craig Smith gets to return to his home state has been awful impressive at USU

Watch Bismarck High boys in the state tournament. They play a dozen players. Full court press the entire game. Would be a good model for ndsu to copy.
They bust their ass every minute.

Yep, and they often run 5 in and 5 out, forcing a lot of turnovers.
Opponents struggle just to get into their offensive sets.

Yes, opponents waste a good 10-12 seconds each possession.

I wonder if it would make recruiting easier. Kind of another step toward positionless basketball.

You need to be deep and athletic. The problem with constant full court pressure is your going to give up some easy baskets at times. It will be interesting to see how it plays out this weekend. I think it would be tougher to implement and maintain at the college level.
25-30 years ago West Fargo High played a similar type of pressure defense when Bob Torgrimson was their coach. He won a few State titles.

It's worked at a few places at the college level. Like with Nolan Richardson's "40 minutes of hell" at Arkansas or more recently Bob Huggins' Press Virginia. But you're right that those teams needed and had a lot of great athletes and more specifically great athletes who were rim protectors that could erase a break if the press did get beat.

A lot of basketball players don't like to play that style, imo. It's hard work and it is selfless.

Yep, defense is nothing but hard work. That's the end of the floor that's most tiring.

Plus it could lead to layups. You know, those shots that only count 2 points?
