    Ndsu has been signing lots of players the last few years who have had multiple fbs offers. Ndsu can compete with any school not in the p5 although they have got a few of those kids too. I don't necessarily think this is a good rule to allow anyone to transfer but I do think if coaches leave kids should be able to leave without having to sit out

    So would this give P5 coaches the ability to “recruit” players from lower division schools? It would suck to lose one of our best players during the season. Or would it only be at seasons end that they could transfer?

    it is what...2 wins (3 if u count tl saying mn wanted him as a db) over P5 this class...at least one win over p5 the last few classes. i think we have more kids signed that had fbs offers than did not. The mac schools dont even try to battel us in our footprint cuz we win those recruiting battles and they dont like the black eye.

    don't mean to jump on you, but i think your post is inaccurate. go check out 24/7 and look at the past 3 /4 classes and who all offered our recruits

    I saw some speculation that there would be a transfer window. Even if this ultimately goes through it is going to take a few years to work out the rules.

It's not that you come to a conclusion about it. Through that argument you change your mind sometimes... That's how societies grow.

    So coaches would have to spend more time recruiting college players in addition to high schoolers. I can see it now. "Sorry coach, I can't make practice today. I have meeting with the linebackers coach at Piggly Wiggly State who says I can be a starter there next year."
    It's OK to not be OK.

    You could be right, but does that tell us how many guys we recruited but didn't bother to offer because they had FBS interest? In any case, I don't think I'm wrong that NDSU is an anomaly in FCS in their ability to get FBS recruits. Sure there are a few others here and there, but nothing like what NDSU is able to do.

    Some top FCS guys could also transfer from another team too and want to play for NDSU. It's just not going to happen much. Players know that if they only play for a team for a year or two, they have to learn a system. It rarely works out.
