    I have thought kicking was going to be one of our weaknesses this year so hoping he can get up to D1 quality quickly. NW is obviously a good NAIA program.
    I would sure think kicker would be one of the easiest positions to adjust from NAIA to FCS. Last year Dustman was 14 for 20 on FG (long was 48) and 68 for 69 on PAT. Last year Stader was 15 for 21 on FG and 36 for 36 on PAT. Stader was 3 for 4 between 0-29, 7 for 8 between 30-39, 2 for 4 between 40-49, and 3 for 5 over 50 including a long of 60.

    He likely isn't brought in 10 days before the season starts unless the coaching staff is looking for improvement. It would be interesting to know the story about how he found his way to Brookings at this late date.
    I saw Max Pelham was retweeting some of his earlier "still looking for a home" posts, so maybe that was the connection?

    I found it interesting in an article Zimmer wrote this week that Kenyon Big Bow is currently in the starting RG position over Nate Adams. Hero Sports listed Adams as the 24th best OL returning in 2025, and I also have seen some All-American lists that include Adams. If this is the case and he can't crack our top 5 I feel very good about the depth of the OL this year.

    I know that there is an online donation for Nate's family. I believe they have raised $17,000 to date. Is it possible for this same group to organize an in- person donation mechanism for opening night? I think a lot of fans would easily put $10 or more in a large football helmet or kettle and we could easily raise some substantial additional monies.

    As others have mentioned, this definitely puts things in perspective.
    In light of this extremely sad news, I hope #3 is on all the players helmets or uniforms. It has been very quiet on this forum as it should be! I wondered if it was too early to say anything, but I did!!!

    Makes football seem not quite so important.

    Chase Mason has also confirmed this. Incredibly sad news.
