So who is the favorite to start now?
So who is the favorite to start now?
I am checking into this with my contact. He is friend of Westphal's dad.
If we concentrated on the really important stuff in life, there'd be a shortage of fishing poles"
When you play football, you gotta like the taste of blood, And 50 percent of the time, it's your blood.
You don't give out trophies for losing. Trophies for sucking. That's a communist idea. You don't get a trophy for losing. You get a piece of pizza and you shut up. Trophies for losing? What the hell happened to us?

Could you please expand on "bingo"? You and your alter ego BisonNeil love to bash on Bohl and company and much is deserved but if you're going to advance this line of thinking, please enlighten us with more than a one word answer. I mean this kid was in town for three weeks, you can't tell me things are that bad. Don't you think Westplal checked things out with his WI friends before he decided to head up to Fargo?
Or was the writing on the wall that he wasn't good enough to start or get a ton of reps so why not transfer somewhere else where he can get those??
Maybe we should be asking the question "why did he transfer from WI?" Thats the problem with transfers who want to play right away. This isn't high school football where you just show up and because you're the biggest, fastest kid you are a star.
Time for Jirk, Jueckem, Drevlow, Perry, etc to step up.
There may be 10 reasons why he left.
Although it is dissapointing that he has decided that NDSU is not a good fit, there may be something else that is fueling this other than a woman in Oshkosh. We have 1. Gratzek, 2. Phillips, 3. Boyer, 4. Stockzynski and 5. Hagen. Maybe these guys surprised Westphall a bit
There may be five other reasons why he left.
6-10. Maybe some of the freshman pheonoms that we have on the defensive line were better that Westphall expected them to be. (6. Drevlow, 7. Juckem, 8. Perry, 9. Gimmestad, 10.Jirik)
This has been stated before and I agree. If he was so good why did he feel the need to transfer from Wisconsin? It was close to home and every kid in Wisconsin wants to go there. There may be reasons that we will never know but not being welcomed by the other players seems a little far fetched to me. Besides, this isn't kindergarten where everyone sits around in a circle and sings sappy songs. It is a competetive college atmosphere of put up or go home. I guess he decided to go home.
