I have high hopes for Kenny Givens the DT transfer from W. Michigan. Everybody that was expected to sign has signed except RB Joshua Robinson.
We still need help at WR, maybe someone will roll in early January.

Nice to get 25 locked in during December signing. Will be interesting to see if any decommit and then who we get in Feb.

Love that we got transfer TE Cam Grandy who reportedly also had Tulane interest, and we hung onto him. I have zero doubt us losing our 2 SR TEs who had 48 catches combined, despite losing Annexstad the last 3 games ... and with Annexstad coming back .. played a big role in hanging onto him.

Welcome TE Cam Grandy where TE used to stand for Tackle Eligible here at ISU .. but not any more !!!!

p.s. though we did put TE James O'Shaughnessy in the NFL .. he had just 28 catches in 15 games during Natty run season.

A little underwhelming fall class..not close to NDSU, SDSU and UNI. And a step lower than INSU. Seems like more 6-5 seasons ahead. Hopefully we move up like NDSU and SDSU, USD and UND. Having 75 scholarships would be a big help.

so early signing day lists came out yesterday .. and by noon today, youve already scoured NDSU, SDSU, UNI, and ISUb recruiting classes, and compared to ours and concluded ours sucked ?

NDSU has all 1-4 star hs players signed in the fall. The schools that are dedicated to success not being woke will be the best. One again a red vs blue, and if ISU decides to be a team that needs to move forward then things will change. Until that time, things will always be the way it is. Happy mediocrity and not offending anyone. Like running up a score or not trusting the players you recruited when it matters. Just rake your yard,it won't change thank goodness for many of you.

According to 24/7, they have 3 commits who are 3 star, which is actually pretty good for FCS. Then no other commits list any stars at all according to 24/7 .. that was literally 30 seconds of research to debunk your research.
