Should Jamestown be accepted into the NSIC?

[Stanger86]

Bruggeman can coach and their ability to hold onto him after last season when a couple of established NSIC teams showed interest tells you they’re doing something right up there. I’d put him near the top of the list of young bb coaching talent in the upper Midwest. His connections and street cred with USD (where he assisted prior to Jamestown hiring him) just got illustrated last week. Just saw that USD picked up Casey’s point guard from last year who was out of D2 eligibility but because of the Pavia case had D1 eligibility. Contacted someone who would know and they confirmed Casey made the suggestion and connection for USD who signed Bennion who is now playing quality minutes at USD. Kind of figured Bruggeman might be involved when Bennion drove up from Vermillion last week and was in attendance at the Augie/Jamestown game. Seems like a small thing, but taking the time to take care of former players when it doesn’t help your team one way or the other builds so much credibility and engenders loyalty which makes the transfer portal less of a problem. Have never met him but he seems like kind of guy I’d want my kid to play for. We’ll see how long Jamestown can hold him.

2 seasons as an assistant at South Dakota
4 seasons as an assistant at UM-Duluth
2 seasons as an assistant at UMary

Definitely a coach who has paid his dues.

we certainly can't ignore Jamestown is in first place in the North in men's hoops.

Deep down they know they belong in the junk drawer.

Fairness in reporting: Jamestown men’s basketball does lead the North still at 9-8 (7th overall in the conference)

Women's basketball is dead last overall

We said they’d drag the conference down. Didn’t know it would be so soon! 🙂

Ha! Good one. Even I can appreciate that one-liner!

Maybe Jamestown wants to move up a level and fill a hole in the MVFC.
