Dana Holgorsen Hired as Offensive Coordinator

Regardless of how strong you think our NIL is, one thing that’s been made very clear is that we fulfill our NIL promises. Casey Thompson said as much on the record. That’s a tremendous recruiting strength but it also requires a really thorough vetting process because it means former blue-chip recruits who never lived up to their potential could see us as one final paycheck.

That said, I don’t think it’s a bad idea to scoop a few players like that up. Where I think we should really live in the transfer portal though is in FCS all-American players as well as G5 all-conference players who are looking to improve their draft stock playing at a higher level. NDSU and South Dakota St have at least 2-4 players each year who could seriously raise our floor and one year rentals don’t scare off prep recruits. I think we missed Omar Brown defensively.

There are definitely lots of NFL players in this group who NU should be targeting for NIL transfer players that would fill immediate needs for starting positions.   I would rather take my chances and have this type of player than the kid sitting the bench for two years at a P4 program who wants to transfer and start immediately.  

 
I like the play they do when he scored his TD.  Has had a long gainer before that as well just diidnt get in the endzone that game.  Think Rahmir had a nice one too.  

 
It's frankly annoying because I thought he looked like the best RB last year too and I've been annoyed by Dowdell taking carries that should have been EJ's all year. Holgorsen saw what most of us saw.
Another thing that irritated me was when EJ did all the work to get to the redzone and they just gave it to Dowdell like EJ couldnt score from 2yards out.  Reward the guy every once in a while
