Originally posted by Dan Brookens View PostNorthern State offered to Zach Jorgenson, who was a PWO at Minnesota. He was a WR there but could easily switch to another position. Was a dual threat QB with us here in Fairmont
I always assumed he would play baseball when my kid played against him in HS football and baseball. He was a good SS and pitcher

Started and offered originally as PWO—but after 2 ISU Running backs jumped in the portal; it became a scholarship.
Possible Reason for 2 ISU RB jumping in the portal:
2023 Idaho State offensive yards average per game:
Passing Yards 337—. Season: 507 passing attempts
Rushing Yards 60—. Season: only 118 carries by RB=2.9 average per carry. Over 100 rushing carries by QBs

Originally posted by Purple Mav Man View PostThere seems to be a lot of assumptions that when a player enters the portal, they are automatically looking for a D1 team to join…then the piling on about it. As fans, we clearly feel a little hurt (in the general sense of the term) when a player chooses to leave our team/school, because of our emotional connection to said school. There are SO MANY reasons for wanting to transfer, other than just chasing a D1 dream. Personally, and I know I’m an idiot..ha, I transferred because of my then girlfriend. Some kids want to play. Some were lied to by the coaches. Some want to win more than 1-3 games per year. Some want to get out of the climate. Some have family reasons. Some do it for academic reasons…on and on. And certainly, some are chasing the dream. And others just want that recruiting attention again!
College coaches are now more like ‘real world’ managers than ever before. You can put a ton of time and resources into finding a candidate to fill your open position (recruiting), and then developing them (training, etc) only to see them leave for another job. Scholarships are year to year contracts.
I think we all acceot there are many reasons they enter the portal.
it is important to remember that 60% who enter the portal never play again. The most common thing is a kid is unhappy, transfers, goes to new school and either quits or doesn't even show up. That is more common that a kid who portals, transfers and contributes

Just an offer, but SMSU offered a sophomore QB in the portal from Minot, Cole Hansen...significant given QB coach Zac Cunha's history with the previous MSU regime.

I had him going to MSUM, so I was a bit surprised to see he picked Idaho State - but now it makes sense.

UMD going to a 2 QB rotation? A gunslinger on long downs and KWJ for running downs. Actually, Walljasper has the potential to be the best QB in the league. UMD35 already believes he the better Jack Strand, haha.

Just didn't want to clog the discussion with outbound traffic if it wasn't the intent of the thread.
