Z-squared gets love from the Strib...

Great article by Patrick Reusse about Division I's leading rusher.

And he also breaks down the numbers...

Really nice article, but check out the comments section Lakes Bison strikes again.

Does Lakes even have a job? Heck, does he even have a girlfriend?

Kind of late to the game, what is the deal with Lakes? Just another over zealous, mouth breathing, super fan?

This discription of Lakes would be an understatment. Seen him a few times in Brookings/SF and even met him once(unfortunately). Complete toolbox...yes not just one tool, but the whole box!!

Great article from Ruesse...I have a feeling he's been quite impressed with both SDSU and NDSU have been able to put together since their move to D-1, especially with MN kids.

Go Jacks!!

Is it possible that, at the given time, the most successful current college football player and most successful current college basketball player that hail from the state of MN both reside in Brookings, SD and wear yellow and blue? I'm sure I'm forgetting others that are out there performing well, but you could probably still make that argument.

Probably most successful current "offensive player" (Zach Zenner). NDSU has probably the most successful current "defensive player" (Marcus Williams). Both are very good.

If healthy,Trevor Mbakwe probably gives Nate a run for the money in the basketball area. Both are projected to be drafted,but I think Mbakwe is ranked a bit higher.

Excellent question that gets to the heart of a potential recruiting advantage for the Jacks. As they build reputations on giving kids from the region like this a chance, success can follow success.

Is Mbakwe from a MN high school, or just since started with Gophs?

Trevor Mbakwe is from St. Paul and went to St. Bernard's High School.

What is Lakes' favorite thing to do on the lake (and on the internet)?

TROLL

Star Tribune does a nice story or a relevant subject regarding a Twin Cities athlete (that isn't a National Champion Bison). How dare thee? I hate to paint the Bizun faithful the same color as that tool (Lakes), but seriously, how many times has he been dropped on his head?

Seems to me the more that human virus is given attention, the more he thinks he may have some relevance in life and he will continue to spew his vitriol.

Don't feed trolls.
