2026 Recruiting Updates

[hockeyplayer]

That is a big wow!

Tucker Thieneman is one of those Wisconsin Offers I didn’t list
the other day because he had to be going FBS with those offers, riiight?
Wow! Great to see…

Ole Miss, Florida, Missouri, Maryland

---I hope Tucker Thieneman's verbal does not morph into a bargaining ploy go extract more $$$$$$$$ from one of the above FBS schools. ...for now I will trust Tucker's reasons for choosing NDSU and I will with hope and great excitement look forward to more years of a strong Offensive Line.

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

Could be wrong but I'm betting he and PL were on the team at the same time?

Reading through the tea leaves on X… appears UND may have gotten a nice OL recruit that lives just outside the Fargo metro. Hope I’m wrong, don’t think I am.
