2015 Position Discussion

[IzzyFlexion]

I know they list Volson, Bacon, and Conner as back ups. But you would think they would move guys around with more game experience if someone is hurt. I could see Plankers slide into Gaurd if Johnson or Kelly can't go. Plankers has experience at both spots. Also last year when Haeg would come out, Lechler slid over to left tackle with Plankers at right tackle.

This scenario works.
Joe will likely need frequent breaks in the early going.

I hope it doesn't come to that. The incoming freshman are talented, but they're not ready for the MVFC. Plus, if they do play, it will mean that NDSU suffered a ton of injuries.

agree with you on that. The O-line is loaded this year and will protect Carson great and they will make huge holes for the RB's to run through. 3 yards and a cloud of dust. Move those chains.

Bremer will have to sit this year I believe so he could be listed as incoming transfer

Also someone listed incoming freshman OL, dont forget Max Haskins

Breakout year for Nick Deluca

Hubbs is currently at 290. Big fella I'm looking forward to in a NDSU jersey.

Hopefully see PGT have an impact

I think this is a must.

I think this is a must.

Yeah, DeLuca looked very good last year... not that I was breaking down film or anything. The outside linebackers are really going have to step up. Only 8 LBs on the team before the freshmen come in.

If this year's defense is anywhere near as good as the last four, it's going to be a huge credit to the coaching staff and the players.
