2021 Verbal: Cole Payton

[EC8CH]

It also said he was undoubtedly ranked as the most impactful and one of the most determined players in the state.

He said he has already a strong friendship with members of his recruiting class, including Bryce Lance.

That relationship seems like a good hook to keep him in the boat considering his bro is the best demonstration of next level potential at the QB position. That with the fact he already flat out said thanks but no thanks before even meeting with Nebraska in person gives me the warm and tinglies. Nebraska is likely set at QB anyway so if he turned down Iowa State at QB and Nebraska for anything else, seems like NDSU is in a good spot retention wise.

I'm just going to go ahead and say this: Cole Payton will have the same relationship with Bryce that Lance has with Sproles and Watson. Will get drafted into the NFL within the first 3 Rds. That is all.

Cole Payton leads NDSU through transition to the FBS... and wins their first National Championship at the next level.

Haha! I'm more than happy with the first part. Being in the top 10 at the next level would be just fine for me. For the time being...

Just trying to keep the ridiculous progression of NDSU QB accomplishments going.

not to drift thread in a different direction but I'm still waiting to have that RB that is a top 1-5 RD NFL pick like David Johnson. Figured it would have happened by now.

Looking back just makes you appreciate how much of a freak athlete Johnson was and how lucky we were Farley never used him effectively enough against the Bison.

We’ve had good backs (Crock, Bruce, etc), but we haven’t got that sure thing yet. The kid from Fargo in next years class might be really good.

We need a Lamar Gordon. Third Round draft pick

It makes me nervous when these commit threads light up the day before signing day....

No "I'm taking my talents to Rutgers" tweets from Payton yet though.


For anyone that doesn't get the reference or just wants to have a good chuckle reliving an infamous Bisonville 30 minute meltdown: http://www.bisonville.com/forum/show...618#post826618

Honestly, I forgot that tomorrow was the early signing period! Been a weird recruiting year for sure.
