"With his athleticism and ability to run, he had some interest from FBS schools as a linebacker.
“I’m a quarterback,” he said, “and NDSU believes in me as a quarterback.”
Payton is the third Westside player in the 2021 class to commit to a Division I school, following Avante Dickerson (Minnesota) and Cade Haberman (Northern Illinois)."
QB Cole Payton had a workout day with an all-world TE recruit, Thomas Fidone (Council Bluffs IA Lewis Central)

I should also mention that Omaha Westside QB and North Dakota State commit @ColePayton9 is a dog.
One of the most underrated QB's in the 2021 class nationally. Every throw he made today during the workout was clean.

Don’t watch me... watch the quarterback... the kid is special!
@ColePayton9
Cole looks to be the next great Bison QB. Wow, he puts the ball right where it needs to be every time. Wish NDSU had a chance to get the TE in the video (maybe since he appreciated Cole's throws so much he will follow Cole......wishful thinking). 6'5", good frame at 225 lbs and great hands. NDSU needs some incoming 6'5" or 6'6" TE's. Amazed how many recent TE recruits are only 6'3" and 6'4". Entz and Roehl must be more focused on blocking. Our 6'6" TE's right now are awesome, but they are both juniors (Gindorff and Babicz)!

Really great article about Payton and Stick.
Crazy how similar they look, they could be brothers.
My Mom yells louder than your Mom.
I'm not sure what it is. Our guys always seem to look smaller than they are. Lance looks 5' 10" and 185, rather than his true 6' 3" and 225 or so. Our tackles never look like their true 300+ pound frames.
Maybe I should start wearing green and gold consistently, to look a little slimmer.
