I don’t see anything at all wondering it. I personally like the 5’11” and up. Everyone has an opinion.

Getting 3 athletes under 5’ 10” in one recruiting class (2019) was certainly out of the ordinary for NDSU. (zero in 2018, two 5’ 10” guys)
With 3 in one class, will not be surprised that one plays right away, helps balance out the class size-distribution. And of course, someone may change position.
As stated, they did try on a couple others RB’s, should be easier to get a commit this year from a every down back with Cofield and Clark and Wilson a year older. This year’s 1st RB offer - TK Marshall (Minneapolis Southwest) - is listed at 5’ 11” 180
Jalen Bussey - favorite (?) to play right away, especially on special teams
Kaden Kunz - preferred walk-on
Kobe Johnson - late period signee from Georgia
I believe all 3 are good sprinters in track as well.

Okay most might have been a stretch (typing and thinking quickly never works well) but look at how many are 6 feet and under. I personally love someone just under 6 feet that is over 200 as they tend to be built with low center of gravity and have great lateral quickness.
If it flies it dies.
Long for the days of freezing in the south stands of Dacotah Field.
What’s wrong with that is 5’9 is shorter than 5’11. Saying you want bigger backs and then listing Dunn who is 5’9 is weird.
Or are you questioning why the coaches are recruiting players that they think are the best fit for the system instead of recruiting taller back that they don’t think fits their system?
See you are trying to argue with me over what style/body type of RB I like and I’m not sure why. You listed Lance Dunn and all I did is compliment him on being a great back but that’s not the body style I like for a RB.
As for the coaches recruiting smaller RBs I guess that’s up to them. Seems we have plenty of guys in that 5’8”-5’9” frame. Or you can try to put words in my mouth some how and spin this in a way that makes me look like I don’t like what our coaches are doing. A guy asked why we seem to be recruiting smaller RBs and I agreed.
