I remember, in the past, a Coach, perhaps Coach Bohl, said that defensive linemen (DE’s) were the hardest athletes to find in recruiting. I continue to be impressed by NDSU’s results at this position and how it has contributed to the success of the Bison.

National Top 30 DL ranking, including......

6 - Ryan Reed
9 - Will Mostaert
16 - Javier Derritt
24 - Eli Mostaert

Among other Bison recruits listed were Jaren Lewis, 16th among QB’s and Jalen Bussey, 6th among RB’s.
Really wishing the Jacks had landed Javier Derritt and Reed Ryan. They are going to be very good. Derritt has huge potential to be one of the best DT's in the MVFC. The Mostaert twins honestly didn't impress me at SDSU's prospect camp last summer. They played a little stiff and didn't test great. As you said, NDSU has a good track record of landing high quality DEs. I'm sure they will be fine but I certainly prefer the other two.
