Entz says they're done and have all the NLIs they expected: https://twitter.com/Coach_Entz/statu...07932706250753
Only guys left to make if official on the @NDSUFootball twitter are these I believe:
Hunter Brozio, 6-0, 220, LB, Lakeland (Victory Christian Academy), FL
Dylan Hendricks, 6-3, 205, ATH, Pulaski, WI
Both may be PWOs though so not sure if we should expect any announcements on them.
Sounds like Jaren Lewis didn't sign?
Here is his Iowa State bio from high school:
High School
Chose Iowa State over Colorado State, Appalachian State and Toledo … three-star recruit by 247Sports, ESPN and Scout … ranked as the 38th-best QB nationally by ESPN and No. 45 by Scout … two-time all-region pick … 2015 Region 8-3A Player of the Year … as a senior, passed for 1,627 yards and 17 touchdowns … completed 79-of-169 passes … led team to a 9-3 record and the Region 8-AAA championship, its first region title since 2004 … named player of the week after scoring four TDs (two passing, two rushing) in a 36-35 double overtime win over Jefferson … as a junior, completed 107-of-193 passes for 1,966 yards and 14 touchdowns … also rushed for six TDs … started at Stephens County as a sophomore … coached by his father, Travis Noland.
Personal
Born August 16, 1997 … son of Travis and Julie Noland … communication studies major ... father played quarterback at Appalachian State.
Without the qb, still consider a slam dunk. I like defense. Being too good on o makes em sloppy.
I think he'll be a great add from a depth standpoint to add an older guy as a backup. If he pushes Lance in a competition that's great but even if Lance beats him out (which I think we all would expect) you'd think this guy is done transferring since he'd only have one year of eligibility left after this upcoming year. Wouldn't be surprised to see Hotchkiss or Sanders leave after spring ball if the writing is on the wall that Lance is the future QB. So it's a nice little insurance policy IMO.
