Transfer Portal

I am excited about TE Delahode (sp). I've heard lots of comments about his athleticism through hs and last season. How are we at LB? We were going to lose a lot before we Jimmied anyway.

Awesome! My biggest to areas of concern are RB and TE/WR. I do think Jackson's incredible recruiting history is going to be big. We will see if he can get anything through the portal

Alpers and Gannon are really good TE's. To me, RB and WR are two of the positions where quality can be found in the portal, especially after teams have to cut roster sizes. Probably won't find the next Isaiah Davis or Griffin Wilde, but some very serviceable players should be available. Would much rather have to find them than have to fill spots in the trenches.

JI has moved Kobe Clayborne from the TBD list to staying. That would be a huge development ! Has the versatility to play either inside or out.

That's awesome. He is going one of the leaders if not the leader on that unit.

OL and DL are looking pretty stout. Winning football absolutely starts in the trenches.

He just made it Twitter official.

And in other news... Bryce Lance has announced he's returning to the Bison. That is an awfully big surprise to me, and it seems most Bison fans too. Good for him, and good for them.

Their collective was begging for money to keep players a couple of days ago, so they apparently ponied up.

Safety Brody Miller '25 decommitted

He and Powers recently followed one another. I like that

He still has DL @ South Dakota State as the header on his Twitter account. Hopefully he won't have to take that down until a year from now.

It looks like Kobe Clayborne has taken all of the tweets down that listed the offers he received. Not sure how to interpret that.

Offer on Powers. this list was from a day or two ago no new schools since then. I like our chances against them

Dan Jackson exchanged follows with a Minnesota transfer DB from Maple Grove, MN (sound familiar?)
Jackson Powers 3 years eligibility looks like he had offers from Butler, Uconn, Elon, Morgan State, and St. Thomas. Eids has an older follow on this guy

Stoffel to Illinois

Its kind of surprising that hes as good of a recruiter as he is. With the scowl and all. Of course who knows what he says behind closed doors.

I know some of my posts sound like I am saying Jimmy is a bad guy. I dont mean that. i have ALWAYS been a huge Jimmy fan. just hard to understand the reversals in words and actions. if he thinks there is an opportunity that he needs to pursue for the good of his family. that is his choice to make and i can understand it even if i HATE it

but it has always been clear that he was a TRUE believer in SDSU and believed it to be a special place
always seem clear that Stig is very special to him
and he clearly has talked in the past about- it is NOT all about the money

if he chooses to go. that is his choice. but i dont understand if it is all about the money. i dont understand that he KNOWS he is doing a lot of harm to the program that Stig built and he helped a lot in doing that. i dont understand that he indicated that there would be much more than ONE championship and i dont understand what seems to be saying one thing and now doing something totally opposed to that

but as far as his scowl or clear desire to keep game day interviews SHORT- those fit perfectly with his intensity. i think his intensity has always been one of the things that we loved about him from his playing days and the way he carried it over into coaching. so I am not going to act now like that is a bad quality. I hate that we are losing all these players and I feel like he should have tried to tell more of them to stay at the special place he recruited them to. some will say that is crazy but I have always believed Jimmy is the kind of person who would do that. that would be in character with what we have always seen from him

but all these players going is a VERY clear example of the fact there is much more to Jimmy than a scowl and his intensity. we have seen glimpses of the fact that he has plenty of emotions. he has trouble holding back tears in his radio show. he definitely has a lot of charisma and great ability to build a connection.

i am very frustrated and more confused with some of his current actions, but I still think the negative crap will pass and it is very easy to see why players love him and want to play for him
