Grant Dean gets his second offer from……Jackrabbits.
NDSU & SDSU don’t go head to head in recruiting as often as you might think, with NDSU still winning more than losing with those recruits. Will be interesting to see if that changes now with SDSU winning their first title and having the winning streak against the Bison…

Northern Illinois is Grant Dean’s 1st FBS offer.
Northern Illinois also offers a NDSU prospect who has a Junior Day Invite:

mj Mitchell

Another 2025 NDSU Prospect - from Stewartville MN - who has a Junior Day Invite - gets a FCS offer - his first - from South Dakota:

6’7 325lbs•2025•OL• Stoughton High School (WI)•First Team All-Conf•608-501-5948• 4.0 GPA• 3⭐️• 3 P5 Offers



Looks like a placeholder kind of offer. Someone NDSU already had a relationship with so will go ahead and offer even though the prospect is getting/going to get multiple FBS/P4 offers. That way if things don’t work out, perhaps NDSU will be considered in a couple years…

Isn't this the guy Scottie was speaking about in another thread per some character issues? I remember posters being upset over Otis Weah going north. Turns out the coaches were right in the end. Speaking of Braaten.

Whos our #1 QB target in this class? Seems like theres several we'd be happy to lock up.
