Another Spud on the recruiting radar is 6’ 4” WR/track star Michael Haugo, who has already taken a visit to Lincoln.
edit: took a quick look and there Haugo is also at the FargoDome with Davis & Schultz:

Been watching this kid since grade school via his dad's Facebook. Big strong quick LB/DL from WI believe he is one of the top prospects in WI for 2023. Already 6'3 240 lbs. (going by memory from his dad's post can't be too far off as he was always the biggest kid on the field) as a junior. He was like 6'2 220 last year as a sophomore. Very good wrestler as well always in the mix to win state. He has a fair amount of family in ND, know his dad and several of his relatives (so guess I'll have to behave and not be a lakes like rube!!). Know he went to NDSU camp, among many others this summer. Good chance he gets a FBS offer perhaps even P5 offers. See UND already invited him to a game. Have to think NDSU at least puts an offer out to him at some point, his hard nose take no prisoners style would fit in well with NDSU culture.

No you didn’t……
You only mentioned Knutson visited, no mention of a NDSU offer.
And you posted it in the 2022 thread……what is a 2023 FBS Level recruit to think of this NCC level effort……
Don’t let your game slip, Bisonville deserves better than D2 posting from you!
Don’t be the guy holding NDSU back from the FBS jump…don’t be that guy!

For those who have 247, Allen Trieu posted an article about Brock Knutson on Oct 24 in the 2023 Recruiting - GameDay Visits thread.

For those interested, an earlier Trieu article is on the previous page from Oct 4th along with other Knutson mentions.

Re: 2023 Recruiting Updates
Recruiting Ramblings
- Big weekend for NDSU as the next Junior Day is here. Keep an eye out for new offers.
- Have seen several players mention they will be here, including LB Alex Elliott of Hutchinson, fresh off a visit with Da Gophers. Also:
Tayeton Lohaus@Tayeton_lohaus2023 DE/TE || 6’4” 235bs || Humboldt High School (IA) Class 3A Second Team All State DEHumboldt, IA
Keenan Wilson@KeenanWilson2⭐️⭐️//2023//6’2 288 lbs.//Eagan Highschool//{D line}
Anthony Corona@32AnthonyCoronaWilmot Union High-school 23’ Captain 6’2 205lb|4.53:40|280lb Bench|430lb Squat|. Unanimous 1st Team All Conference,1st Team All Region, All Area, All County DBWisconsin, USA
- 247 has done some 2023 player ratings changes, including 2 now being listed here in North Dakota (as opposed to 1 so far for 2022)
Karter Menz - 6’ 5” 208 - DE - West Fargo Sheyenne - 3 stars
Joel Edland - 6” 5” 270 - OL - Bismarck Century - 2 stars
- South Dakota has 3 players listed, all of whom NDSU has been involved with.
One of which - Richard Benenge - 6’ 2” 218 - LB - Harrisburg (Sioux Falls, SD)(3 stars) has already gathered 2 FBS offers, including Arizona.
Another - Lincoln Kienholz - 6’ 3” 185 - QB - Pierre (T.F. Riggs)(2 stars) - is a Junior Day Invite and just this week received a Jackrabbit football offer and a Coyotes basketball offer.
The 3rd - Gabe Gutierrez - 6’ 2” 220 - LB - Sioux Falls SD (Lincoln)(2 stars) has already recently visited Fargo
- In Minnesota, Moorhead’s Elinneus Davis checks in as #4 and a 3 star. Another more recent NDSU offer - Carson Hansen - 6’ 1” 190 - RB - Lakeville (South) is ranked #5 and is also a 3 star.
- The bad side of early rankings like this, especially the 3 stars, is it makes it tough for NDSU to win those battles. Too many early FBS offers can result for a developmental program, such as the Bison, to compete with.
- An early NDSU OLine interest looked like a great potential Ram, well turns out he is thought of as top-10 in Wisconsin, so kinda a fuhgettaboutit has happened……Thomas Paasch - 6’ 7” 295 - OT - Green Bay (Southwest)

I suppose in this age of the transfer portal, it doesn’t hurt to put your name in there in case Iowa State or whomever doesn’t work out. Especially if Nebraska offers.

Naturally, NDSU and its success no matter what fans say is known in the CF world, and also as NDSU feeds coaches to the country more eyes out there.

Re: 2023 Recruiting Updates
In addition, there is a spreading :bunnyb: problem.
now Idaho hired Coach Eck and he or his coaches have been showing up in Nebraska & Iowa, maybe Minnesota too.
Plus Northern Illinois has a couple former Jacks also.
Former Gopher Coach Kill is now at New Mexico State, so I’m guessing they will be a pest also.

Among these offers Wisconsin is by far the best. I think NDSU might have a shot against the rest.
