We need to and seemingly do own the local talent, but I'm surprised by the number of kids so far. Is there that much D1 guys in the area or are we under reaching??

My understanding in talking with a few coaches is generally we have for this talent for nothing and it’s been fairly quiet. This year with area schools recruiting some of these kids we have had to spend some money to get it and it’s been a little more public. No reason a good chunk of these kids won’t develop into contributors like local kids in the past have done. Our staff has seen all of them in person.
When you say local talent, do you mean Fargo-Moorhead, the entire state, or near by?

I asked myself the same thing and even went and looked back to other years recruiting earlier today. I trust the coaches but with it being a partially new staff it is in peoples mind can they keep it rolling and how is their first class going to look? Its one of the best things about watching and following college football, year to year there are so many changes yet so much can also stay the same.
