Don't have to worry bout the TE route here. He went to the Goophs.

Love the Black Knights, but that route is not for everyone. Since SecDef closed down the pro route for most of these guys be eliminating the deferred service option, 4 years of football and 5 years Hooah!

Who are the names to keep an eye out for? Any Big Time names that are being recruited?

To me that would be the local triangle. (Post #70)
2 of the 3 already have FBS offers, so if the Bison get any of the 3 it would be great news.

I’ll pick out another name as “Big Time” - 15 offers already for NDSU legacy OL Gunnar Kilen, lotsa MVFC & MAC action (including Buffalo) and KState and Iowa and Wisky are all talking.

And speaking of Kilen, his teammate just visited Fargo -
Adam Vandervest - 6’ 6” 265 - OL - Verona WI -
(Illinois State offer)

Sounds more like a college line than a high school - yikes!
Can’t be that big of a town......

Last year Trey Lance was the first commit on May 24. Any guesses as to who the first commit is this year?

I’ll buy a lottery ticket here and go with continuing the Marshall MN pipeline, since Trey Lance was 1st last year. Totally a s.w.a.g. though......

Lance’s high school teammate - Yahya Black - 6’ 5” 240 - DL/OL

But 1st the Bison have to make Black an offer - only has a South Dakota offer currently. But he and teammate Trey Steinbach visited Fargo again this weekend - and they looked happy in the photo with Trey Lance.
