Kneeling UNI Player?

[Christopher Moen]

Ok, so I am going to go hot topic here but were my eyes deceiving me when I saw a UNI player kneeling and two other players standing next to him during the national anthem?

When both teams came out, they had players praying in the South end zone. NDSU came out first and every single player who had been praying was back to where they were supposed to be for the anthem.

UNI, on the other hand, still had players praying when the anthem started. Is this what you were referring to about taking a knee. I didn’t look to see if they got up soon after since I was focused on the anthem and flag.

When you are a program run on donations that fund the scholarships that probably would not be a good thing to let happen.

Nailed it!

Lots of folks doing that for a variety of motivations and it’s a tricky thing for coaches to try to control, so if it continues to matriculate into CFB, I wouldn’t be that surprised to see it at NDSU.

As a coach I'd be more concerned about walking off the field without shaking hands than the kneeling.

All it takes is one or two big donors who lean a little left and you’ve got a real conundrum.

I’m just saying that drawing the conclusion that ‘protestor = program gone amuck’ could come back to serve some crow.

All of the other evidence that UNI is a program amuck is still valid, though.

It will never die if people keep talking about it. I am sick of hearing about it. The point has been made on both sides. Now move on

Those all made it to standing at some point during "oh say can you see" phrase.

#7 wasn't one of those players as I'd kind of watched them out of the corner of my eye.

To the people worried about the kneeler do you yell bison during the anthem?
