Sounds like it will be SMSU, Morningside (NAIA), and possibly Mankato twice. -
NSU peeps. I saw a thing on the Roku (NSIC app) for a recruiting thing tmrw for the Wolves....I assume something streamed. FYI.
I hadn't seen that for other teams.Comment

Yep 5:30 central Wednesday. YouTube, facebook and the NSIC network. Here the article about it. https://nsuwolves.com/news/2021/1/29...day-plans.aspxOriginally posted by Matt Witwicki View PostComment

Last Friday I did an interview with Head Coach Mike Schmidt and I'll post it in the days that follow recruiting. Mike was very candid about expectations for the program and the outlook. I'll post it here when ready.Comment

I can't say I disagree with you guys in that your program appears to have a bright future, but you need to seriously pump the brakes on talk of winning the NSIC North within 3 years or playoffs. Your new coach hasn't even coached a game yet so that seems to be a stretch. Also, if I've learned anything in my time as a former player, it's that D1 transfers are usually nothing to boast about. Sure, some can pan out to be productive players but you can't go around saying a guy was at a D1 school so he's gonna be a D2 stud. Doesn't work like that.Comment

Yes...bland expectations and pessimism is an excellent way to recruit, change a culture and build interest in your program. I'll send and email to them tomorrow to knock it off.Originally posted by D2FootballFan1992 View PostComment

Figured I'd look back through...literally one comment of potentially winning the North and a Maverick fan saying atleast a year until making some real noise. Otherwise just a lot of "we shall see" type comments. We have like four active posters so not real hard to sift through.

I guess I would argue that Northern has consistently been in middle of the North for years and if the new stadium and coaching staff doesn't generate enough optimism that we can compete with Bemidji and Duluth in a few years then what are we even doing. I mostly agree with you on the D1 transfers, they are usually now D2 for a reason. But as Mankato can show you, transfers can often work out at this level too. The expectations are there for the future of the program. Wolves fans are realistic that it won't happen over night. I'm just excited to see some football again.Comment

Early May on the game with Mankato. I've heard both that it will be a real NCAA sanctioned game and then I heard a game format that wont count towards official records..but will have fans, etc. I'm assuming it'll be the unofficial game setup. I think it was May 7th, but it was a few weeks ago when I'd heard of this talk.Comment
