It's Tucker Thieneman. Looks like he had some P4 offers.

That is a big wow!

Tucker Thieneman is one of those Wisconsin Offers I didn’t list

PS- when i talked to Coach P last week he said this "Not as much Scholly money or spots this year! Character sets the ceiling. Thanks for the support Go Bison!"

So that's why this Recruit was a Big Homerun for Coach. So Awesome !!!

Whoa that's huge

The chance of being a 1st or 2nd round pick at OL is arguably an easier path at NDSU

Doesn't this belong in the 2026 recruiting thread? Asking for a friend.

Thank you Grey Zabel, et al…

Much more than Zabel going in the 1st round

Billy Turner (3rd round), Dillon Radunz (2nd round), Cody Mauch (2nd), Cordell Volson (4th) Joe Haeg (5th round) were drafted and have had good careers

Jalen Sundell and Jake Kubas are on current NFL rosters

Nash Jensen is a free agent and in the UFL, but started a year for Carolina. Zack Johnson and Paul Cornick had recent stints in the NFL

Joe Haeg played 7 years in the NFL and almost caught a TD from Tom Brady in the Super Bowl. Billy Turner retired after earning 31 million.

Even going back to the Division 2 days, Pete Campion (7th round) and Rob Hunt 5th round

The NDSU pro day had reps from every NFL team

If you earn a starting job at NDSU and have the NFL measurables, you have a better than average chance of having an NFL career than most teams. Even some players we as fans viewed as average are having good careers

And were ONLY talking about offensive lineman. Not the 3 current NFL QBs, a 2nd round Wide Receiver, and a Dallas Cowboy Running Back. Or Chris Board who has managed to stay in the NFL for his 8th year

I see the Griz posted only 10 or so showed up for their pro day.
