Wyoming just recently retired Josh Allen's jersey although he was pre-transfer portal.I absolutely hate where college football has gone. You get a kid at, let's say Wyoming, that realizes he's Ohio State talent, BOOM, he's gone. There's maybe 10 teams that will win every championship every year because of the NIL money and transfers.
When we grew up, we knew who every kid in the state that went to a division 1 school was and it was big time if anyone went division 2. Most people went to Northern, BHSU, or Mines it seemed.We don't have the population base to fill out those teams. I think both sets of Dakota schools do a good job of keeping the talent home that can play at their level. They all take a few flyers on marginal kids every year, and they should. Some of them pan out some don't. I'm and assistant coach in AAA, the highest class in SD. I played in college. There simply aren't many Div 1 football players in SD and ND. I attneded a combine event in Aberdeen last weekend. There were around 120 kids there, 2028-2026 classes. There weren't 5 kids that have Division 1 metrics.
You fill half the rosters with Dakota Kids and you won't win many games.
