    I wonder how that works in the recruiting world? If he wasn't Gus' son I assume we probably wouldn't have offered him. Is it more of a common courtesy type thing? Shout out and show of respect to one of your former players?

    I'm guessing there are plenty of former player kids that NDSU doesn't offer. I also doubt the staff would offer someone that they felt they had zero chance at landing.

    If there's a connection and any chance as slim as it may be you offer. Who knows maybe the kid would like to follow dad's path.

    If former players kids can play then you offer them. It would be real nice to have quality "legacy" type players. Those kids should know what it means to be a bison from an early age.

    I might not live long enough to see any of Carson's kids play, since he does not have any yet.
