The UND Football program is on the eve of the most anticipated Fall Camp in the program’s long history. UND joined the Big Sky Conference as of July 1st and will enter into their first full season of FCS playoff-eligible play. The Freshman report tomorrow, July 31st, with practice actually beginning August 3rd. In between…
The Big Sky Conference released their 2012 Football Preseason Polls on Tuesday. There were two different polls, one by the media and another by the head coaches from the Big Sky. UND finished #6 in the media poll and #10 in the coaches poll. We feel UND should have been around #6-7 in the preseason polls. #1-5 in…
There has been a ton of stuff going lately with the UND Football program behind the scenes so we figured we better try to keep everyone up on it. We apologize for having to consolidate all the topics into one but time restraints have kept us from posting individually as they happened. The Big Sky…
(Our apologies for the “Men Without Hats” reference, we just couldn’t help ourselves) The UND Football team has signed two junior college safeties to add depth to a position that was badly in need of it. William Lewis (5′-11″-180) of Los Medanos College and Clordion Kennedy (5’11”-195) of Contra Costa College both officially joined the UND Football…

We have not seen any official confirmation yet but it appears via twitter that UND has gotten a commitment from JUCO safety Clordion Kennedy (5’11”-200) of Contra Costa College in San Pablo, CA, which is just north of Oakland. We do not know much about Kennedy other than he was First Team All-Bay Valley as a sophomore…
The first unofficial FCS preseason poll has come out for the 2012 season. AnyGivenSaturday, a website/forum devoted to FCS football, came out with their poll recently and the North Dakota Fighting Sioux were ranked 34th. With the forum members being the voters it is somewhat subjective but seems to be fairly accurate. We would probably have…
Now that the school year is officially over we are going to look ahead to what will be happening over the next three months. Fall Camp usually begins the first week of August meaning we are only about 12 short weeks away. We continue to hear the Sioux are looking to bring in some help…
Just weighing in on what we saw and heard throughout spring ball practices and after the spring game. We feel these guys saw their stock rise from the start to finish: DISCLAIMER – We are only addressing guys that were off the radar or had a lot to prove and did so. Upperclassmen who were…
We are one day out from the Spring Game – 2012. This is the first spring game after the long 5 year transition to FCS Football and the beginning of a new era of UND Football in the Big Sky. There are a multitude of activities going on at the Alerus Center on Saturday: Tailgate…
