You either pat his back now or you'll be begged the rest of the season. Wise strategy to get it out of the way early.

Starting in on it early I see…

Not a long portion for either the men's or women's coaches, but Billeter was highly complimentary of the North Division—specifically Duluth and Moorhead—which I'm sure Moorhead123 appreciates.

Well, we were only picked to finish 6th in the preseason coaches' poll, so maybe we'll be ok.

Yes, that was good shout out to the north division by Texas Tom. Also, Augie better get Fink back sooner than later.

Coach Billeter also mentioned that Isaac Fink hurt his knee in June and hasn't resumed playing yet. Hopefully he's fully healthy soon, seeing as he's our only returning starter—and one of our only returning players who actually played key minutes—from last year.

Yikes. This is not good. Without Fink, the other returning players (all non-starters) accounted for a grand total of 12 points per game last year. Hope he gets back soon.

Very smart kid to take mental health seriously. Hope he is able to get back to basketball at some point, if that is what he wants to do.

Hopefully, our leaders/politicians (all parties) can stop using innocent citizens as pawns in their sick games, which is a large part of the cause of the mental health epidemic happening around the world.

What is going on with McDonald apparently transferring from Augie?

Hadn't heard about that. Looks like it's a mental health thing:

Moorhead been trying to schedule game or scrimmage against ndsu for years. Ndsu only willing to scrimmage Concordia Moorhead.

If it makes you feel any better, it sounds like it's a closed scrimmage, so I don't know that there will be much be much fun or publicity or anything like that that comes out of it, regardless of how it goes.

Just saw on the NDSU forum that the Vikings have a scrimmage scheduled with the Bison in Sioux Falls on Oct. 22. Wish it were an exhibition game instead.
