Kid dominated D3.

St. John’s had a tackle drafted a few years ago by Jacksonville that’s currently a San Fran backup (Ben Bartch). I’d take that kind of portal player in a heartbeat.

Well he must not be that good (even though he's in the NFL) since his competition was, as some so eloquently put it, was "the little sisters of the poor."

Bartch quite the story. Dude was eating disgusting stuff to gain weight. Played 6 games for the 49ers this year.

Plenty of D3 guys could help the gophers. But you know how this board can be.

Raiola to Oregon. I'll give the kid credit for looking for a fresh start. I just don't think he had the support in NE anymore and MN pretty much put a nail in it with the 9 sack performance. I believe he has agreed to RedShirt if Moore comes back for another year. Smart move as he needs some work and reboot from injury.

Not so sure I agree with that. Think by now we have seen enough guys make the jump up from lower levels to understand that there are quality players at the lower levels who for one reason or another didn't get recruited out high school.

Agreed he needs more work, but wonder how happy he would be sitting if Moore does come back. Has Moore indicated anything?

I dunno, the board was pretty enthusiastic over the potential of that D-II UMD tight end, so I cant see why they'd treat D-III worse.

At that point, it's probably whether or not the school has your major/how far from home do you wanna be versus are you a D-II or D-III prospect?

Jung from Bethel started every game for Wisconsin this year. I talked to a safety that played against UMD TD and he said he's a complete stud. The Ole Miss QB played D2 last year.

The notion that getting other P4 kids that didn't pan out at a P4 school is better than getting studs/late bloomers from FCS, D2, or D3 is ridiculous. Get the best players that want to be Gophers. Many of the transfer ups also have a bit of a chip on their shoulder.

I’d rather do that then go for the 3rd/4th wr from a g5 school hoping they can be your 3rd/4th wr at best.
