Wasn't expecting a ton of uniqueness from this team (because North Dakota), and was not let down.
Surprisingly, out of the 17 guys on the roster, only one is actually from North Dakota.
Congrats to our Alabama A&M winner, Quinterian McConico.

State school teams, especially ones that are not high majors, tend to draw team members from their home state. To have only one on the entire team, including walk-ons, would be unusual for any state school.
I predict that Quinton will live up to his name and foul out.
NOrth Dakote produces tremdous football and hockey athletes.
Also, lotsa millionaires per capita. And not a recent thing. Just not showy about it.

Lotsa oil royalties in a sparely populated state will have that effect.
You know that anybody named Hooker will put out effort, at the right price.
Lots of Minnesota kids at UND.
Quinton was 2013 Mr. Basketball in Minnesota

You should do one for the current team at the start of conference play.
