“After I was off the phone with Coach Bohl, I called my recruiter Coach (Jake) Dickert. They want me to come on an official visit in December.
We are definitely in a sad state if we don't even want our recruits to come see the team play anymore.

Its extremely difficult for recruits to make a visit during the playing season if you arent close to Fargo. Think of playing a game friday night. Then having to drive 5-6 hours or more to catch the game. Then drive back the same day or the next. Then school and practice on Monday. It can be exhausting.
Plus you also have to take into account the parents and their work schedules. Parents work all day. Then have their kids game. Then they have to drive most of the night on little or no sleep. Back to work on Monday.
Plus the coaches dont get to spend that much time with the kids when its during the season. Off season they kids work out with the players etc. The kids then get a feel for the guys etc. Granted you miss the electric atmosphere of the games but there is more quality time spent with recruits after the season.

Recruit Colten Hagel (DB) makes his first varsity start on offense and all he does is put up 238 yards on 22 carries. Not bad for just finding out your needed to start at RB the night before a playoff game.

Looks like the linebacker recruit that nobody knows about, Don Carter, the Lake Forest Academy, IL player, had over 230 all-purpose yards. Sounds like they split him out as a WR sometimes.
Hmm, if NDSU went down to see them, I wonder if any NDSU coaches stopped in to see a 6'3 260 lb sophomore name Faith Eketatie? He had 12 tackles in the last game from his defensive line spot.
Impressive game yesterday from Jon Dinius of Langdon. He had 350 yards rushing on 35 carries against Oakes. That puts him at approximately 2,600 yards rushing on the season (10 games). Potential to play two more games.
I know it is only Class A football and North Dakota kids can't really play. Especially kids from Oakes. Still, very impressive season for this kid and he's got to be on somebody's radar.
Similar size to Smith so probably no big push from NDSU.
