Early Signing Day 2023

[Professor Chaos]

Post your incoming classes - NDSU adds 20 high school signees: https://gobison.com/news/2022/12/21/ndsu-football-adds-20-high-school-standouts-on-early-signing-day.aspx

Some highlights IMO are ATH Jojo Azure out of Green Bay WI and DE Abraham Myers out of Sioux Falls, SD. DB Jaylin Crumby out of Tampa, FL was a late commit with a ton of offers (although not sure if all were still "commitable"). OL Jack Liwienski is the son of former NFL OL Chris Liwienski and was a pretty big win out of the twin cities (Chanhassen, MN) for NDSU.


It's also reported that they're adding 2 FBS transfers:

LB Hunter Zenzen (Iowa St) - https://cyclones.com/sports/football/roster/hunter-zenzen/11947
CB Marcus Sheppard (Bowling Green) - https://bgsufalcons.com/sports/football/roster/marcus-sheppard/9252
