In looking at the all-NCC 1st team selections is it good to see so many UND players selected to the all conference team (9 in all) but i can't help but think where is Danny Fruend?
Zach Miller of UNO was selected as 1st team all conference. But look at the stats:
Fruend: 176.35 Efficiency, 182 Cmp (68.7%), 5 INT, 2573 yds, 24 TD
Miller: 147.85 Efficiency, 104 Cmp (61.9%), 5 INT, 1445 yds, 10 TD
Miller does add 9 TDs and 808 yds rushing to Fruend's 4 TDs on 51 yds rushing.
Even with the rushing numbers Miller doesn't quite stack up to Fruend. Sure the Mavs went undefeated but UND only lost one game and your record shouldn't play into the all-conference selections because it should be based on individual achievement. Zach Miller is a glorified RB in my opinion and is a great player (i saw for myself when they played UND). However, he didn't deserve this.
I think the coaches made a big mistake on their all-conference selections and should be embarassed. With stats that far surpass those of the 1st team selection Fruend only received honorable mention!
