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.
