How does that compare to the average P5 team? I mean, if a P5 makes 50 offers, how many of those recruits do they lose to other P5s? The answer may surprise you!

Hint: Alabama made offers but did not sign 12 QBs. So Alabama lost on 11 recruits to FBS schools just at the QB position!!!! And the one they did sign is 5-11, 183!!! WHAT A DISASTER!

Someone who teaches at Shanley says USC or Texas, but probably will
end up at an Ivy League school.

So did the young man state that he chose UNC Charlotte over NDSU because UNC Charlotte was FBS or maybe was there another reason? Possibly closer to home? Major?

FBS.
With NDSU having a potential 3 NFL 1st rounders this year. NDSU should be on FIRE RECRUITING... and we haven't.
what's going on?
is Not having that summer camp really hampering us?

Since you don’t seem happy (again)
I’ll ask again, how many scholarships do you think NDSU has available? My quick guess - I’m counting 10 seniors who look like full FCS level scholarship guys. Add in Trey Lance’s scholly. 4 other seniors.

NDSU has 11 commits on 247, plus multiple PWO players not listed.

There are still some offers out there that could be commitable -
e.g. Bryce Lance, Dorian Singer, Dominic McMillian
but otherwise the Bison might have the majority of their available schollies committed to. It’s early October......3+ months until early signing day.
