Love the bios. Surely you say that tongue in cheek. They don't tell you anything. Stats, previous schools. Hoffner must be hanging out with Margs, that's a whole lot of transfers.

I'll be at the opener - that looks like fun.

Absolutely being sarcastic there. I will say I would have liked if Wiese could have gotten some impact transfer guys for the Dogs as there are definite gaps (especially on defense) this year.

Sounds like Mankato got a difference maker on Defense!! #95 could get after the QBs!!!

Doesn’t Marcus Hansen wear #36 or did the Steers go out and recruit somebody else off a NSIC roster?

He’s #95
Passive aggressive jealousy is my favorite 🙂

Recruited off of a GAC roster, he was no longer at Bemidji when he changed routes and came to Mankato.

I still think that Jamestown logo was drawn by a 10 year old. Terrible. Doesn't belong in the conference alone based off that alone.

It's too bad things didn't work out like he hoped, but a good move for him and the Mavs. I'm curious to see how he does there...I'd suspect he will be very good, but time will tell

**vikingfaithful** · 07-23-2025, 05:22 PM

Marcus Hansen will be a difference maker for the purple bovines. You'd expect a great D2 DE. to be at least 6'3" or more, but Hansen is 6' 250lb. It's not the size of the dog, but the size of the fight in the dog as the old saying goes.

All I know is I have heard from sources that he is FAST!!! Not big BUT…..

**Barndog** · 07-26-2025, 05:25 PM

So with the Mavericks, the whole question is as the quarterback goes, so do the Mavericks!!!

talent there, but how much experience do we have

receivers. Running backs the next question is tight ends??? Another big hole is to fill is the center spot along the line of scrimmage

Big week zero opening game and I suspect the little cats, “bear cat “ will be much improved because of their head coach.

Kittens Offense will be light years ahead of last year

Kato will have to score and keep first string on the field.

Saw quite a few former Mavs at my cousin’s son’s wedding this past weekend in Pierre, SD. Brevin Kaiser married a Northern grad, Brianna Kusler. Brady Tuckner and Brayden Thomas were groomsmen. Following the ceremony, I also saw Ryan Schlichte at the dinner and dance.
