Recruiting updates 2023-24

I think a poster is predicting that he’ll transfer, either voluntarily or because he’s he’s asked to leave. I can’t see that happening.
We’ll lose multiple TEs to graduation over the next two years too. Edge has been mentioned for him too.
But I read grad transfer hence my post...not a senior so if he'd transfer he'd have to sit unless NFL....I digress
Exactly. Like we are in junior high "I know something, but I'm not telling".
I don't think he is on campus. He had a stay at the Lumpkins County Jail. He may still be there.
Reilly Reiff from Parkston SD. Played tackle in the NFL for years. Still with Pats I think. We tried to recruit him
Joe Thomas. One of the best ever.
Nate Solder was damned good

I expect the defense to start attracting some pretty high caliber recruits. You can just see the swagger they play with.
ND’s A-A OT, Joe Alt, was a high school TE in Iowa. He is a true junior and will be a top 10 draft pick next Spring.
Sims was not a grad transfer from GT, and his bio says he is on track to graduate in Dec 2023 from the Huskers.
Eligibility wise he’s a junior but he turns 22 in January, graduates in Dec, is a turnover machine, and can’t read a defense.
Hence I am the one who is purely speculating that he won’t be here for the 2024 season.
I honestly think we’d be better off starting Kaelin in 2024 and at least get him the reps.
New OC would be nice too frankly
Uh, no.
You’re right, he played for Tortino High School in Fridley, MN; however, I just watched his video highlights posted on Rivals and he’s wearing a #16 jersey playing TE/DE and catching passes. It’s clear from the video that he was an excellent blocker and ND recruited him to play OT. I think he moved into the starting lineup in game 2 or 3 of his true freshman year, and was named a first team freshman A-A.
Another good take. TE is one of the most versatile positions. He could be developed into a WR/OL/TE/DE/DT/LB/FB.
Plus this state produces a ton of them.
The offense is already on their 3rd OC in 3 years. I’m not sure changing OCs would be helpful. Satt is adjusting to the guys he has after losing 2 of their top WRs and their top 2 RBs.
AND the QB they thought they had confidence in........stepped on the field and went full deer in headlights mode
Also that's going to be Matt Rhule's thing. Some people go heavy portal. Rhule wants to go heavy highschool. I expect 25-30 guys per year for Rhule until this thing get's humming and guys don't want to leave.
Plus 2 things fans always say. They typically love the backup qb and they hate the OC unless they are scoring 100. Then they hate the DC.
What junior high did you go to? There were NO secrets where I went…
I hope for our sake he gets better. Many of his play designs are just awful. Gotta have that ace QB though, if you don’t have that you won’t have anything.
We need to hit up every top portal QB and think about 2 QBs next year. I like Manske but what about Circo? Is he legit and is the offer from the current staff?
We’re 9 months in with a completely new system, new starting QBs and 2 each of our topWRs and RBs out. Add in that our QBs don’t pose a consistent passing threat. We’re running the ball well. That’s a start. Satt is adjusting the offense to the guys he has left. I think he’s as good as anybody we’ve had since Callahan was fired.
I actually liked Beck (ducks). But the fact that Satt has this unit, with all our personnel differences, #6 in the nation in rushing is something and he should get some credit for making lemonade so far.

Satterfield frustrates me because I feel like he could use screens to mitigate some of the pass rush pressure we get. But overall I feel like he is trying to call the game so we win and complement our defense. I feel last year Whipple was more concerned with scoring and calling it his way then actually winning.
Ball placement and timing is extremely important in the screen game. My hunch is that we can’t execute screens in practice with QBs we have.
Which play designs are awful? Examples?
I believe this is the best staff overall in a long time. Satterfield has done a good job tailoring the offense to the talents of the players on the field. We do not have playmakers to the level that he could fully utilize. Some people think that you can scheme average players into 1st round talents. It doesn't work that way.
Wrong
We run WR screens just fine. Bullock took one 50 yards last week. A poorly coached lineman hit a guy after the play and brought it back 15 yards, unfortunately.
We have no RB screen game because our line is so incredibly piss poor & immobile
So help me with all of the logic here.
Our starting QB from last year was hurt, not much behind him so Rhule brings in Sims. People on here raved about his strong arm, yadda yadda. Now he needs to go and Rhule was a fool for bringing him here. What were our other options.
The one thing most on here can agree on is we still do not have good O line play and at times is downright awful.
We lost two RBs to injuries.
Our WR room is probably as weak as it has ever been.
Conclusion to all of this is to fire the OC. Tell me what he has to work with?
