They're trash. NDSU beat Iowa last season so it's not totally inconceivable. There is no way Iowa had an offer to a kid and he picked NDSU over Iowa. Sorry. Iowa is not losing recruits to NDSU. Not happening. 3 Quote

There are Bison fans who really believe they are a Big 12 caliber program and are capable of beating out established FBS schools for recruits. You might burst their bubble! Quote

I also agree it is unlikely that a kid would choose NDSU over Iowa, but Easton Stick chose NDSU over Rutgers so it's not completely out of the realm of possibility.(conceding that Iowa and Rutgers aren't the same thing) Quote

Rutgers is in New Jersey and garbage. If Stick had turned down the in-state P5 school (Nebraska), I'd consider it a lot more comparable. Regardless, appears to be a talented kid. Obviously no one here knows why Iowa and ISU apparently cooled on him, but whatever it might have been looks like it could be NDSU's gain. 1 Quote

And if that's the case, it might be NDSU's loss!! (Of course this is purely based on non biased opinion and not that I want NDSU football to fail all the time at everything). Quote

The Sicatoka Posted August 16, 2017 Posted August 16, 2017 In the last 24 hours I heard an uncorroborated, unverified rumor* that SDSU may have a couple guys with a problem similar to Gordon's and will be missing some time. The source would have second-hand level access to such information so I do believe it ... a little. < stand by for BunnyBoosters in ... > *apply grain of salt here Quote
