Offer to OL Alex Atcavage. Started at RT and RG for FAU.

Offer to OT Jacob Otts of Rhode Island. Starting RT for most of the season.

Offered long snapper Kevin Gallic from New Hampshire.

Offer to DE Jack Dunkley of Duquesne.

Offer to JUCO DE Micah Wing.

On3 reporting McCoy in the portal. If true, that’s a clean sweep of our All-MAC players.

OL Jerrod Burrell into the portal. JUCO that didn’t pan out.

Offer to DE Stephon Wright of Texas Southern.

They may have already recruited them at some point or they know other coaches who have worked with them. Unlike high school recruiting, they have to vet these guys in a fairly short time frame.

Offer to WR DJ Black of DII Limestone. Former walk-on at South Carolina.

Offer to OL Kyrik Mason of Georgia State. Played in two games this season at LT. Was Monmouth’s starting LT in 2023.

Offer to DE Lacota Dippre of Charlotte.

Offer to WR Levi Wentz of Albany.

Offer to DB Alex Mclaughlin of Northern Arizona.

Offer to DE Dawan Martin of Youngstown State.

Offer to DB Ed Rhambo of Bowling Green.

Offer to DB Dwight Lewis of NAIA Marion.

I bet it’ll be USF or another Florida school.

I’ve said in the past that Rivals has underrated a number of our prep players. They tend to grade (or downgrade) most of them to 2 stars. Interesting that Golden, Norton, Rush, James, Nunnally, and Moore are heading out the door as 3 stars.

Offer to DT Qwyn Williams from DII Ohio Dominican.

Back to back years we’ve offered Nick Reimer. Started 4 games at LT for Bowling Green, but only made it through 3 of them and took a redshirt.

Unfortunately, we aren’t going to land many OTs (if any) from the portal that have consistent production at this level. Those players will go somewhere where they get paid. Since we have no NIL presence, coach JRod has to rely on relationships and guys that possess the physical talent to be developed. So either P4/G5 backups looking for playing time or lower level guys that want to prove themselves at a higher level. Although, many of the proven lower level OTs will be swallowed up by programs with NIL. It’s not a coincidence most of the OTs that have been brought in through the portal have had some sort of injury history.

Offered OT Nikola Milovac from USF. We recruited him out of high school as well. Played limited snaps at both RG and RT during his time at USF.

I’d disagree about the 2025 signing class being underwhelming. I’d say it’s Moorhead’s best prep class to date. Moorhead’s prep classes are usually going to be in the range of 12-15 signees, which is significantly less than most other MAC programs. The majority of signings will come from the portal, where Moorhead has done extremely well (7 All-MAC players from the 2022 & 2023 classes alone). JUCO will also be utilized, but so far - outside of Nunnally, Fish, and Anderson (maybe Summers?) - we haven’t landed anyone from JUCO that has been more than depth. Here’s the 2025 MAC recruiting that includes portal departures.

Offer out to DII OT Patrick Methlie. Hurt in 2024, but was all-conference in 2023.
