  • Per media day, RB Oscar Nevermann decided to stay with the UND Football program and will sit out this fall after transferring to UND from Wyoming last winter.   He was going to transfer to UT-Permian Basin, a startup D2 program but did not.  Because Wyoming childishly wouldn’t release the former walk-on to an FCS program, he has to sit out and presumably play on the scout team this fall.
  • UND defensive coordinator Eric Schmidt pointed to cornerback and nose guard as the two areas of concern entering fall camp.  CB was helped by the addition of Jahmere-Irvin-Sills and Vashon Tucker so we are worried less about CB than NG.  UND is going to have to try several defensive lineman at NG to see who can make the biggest difference at that thin/inexperienced position.  True freshman Steve Greer will get a hard look during camp.
