NIU has been a pretty good G5 school and they did beat Notre Dame in 24.

Any players worth taking a look at?

I’m not sure they have the spaces or money tbh. The 247 board had posters *****ing that they filled up the roster spots with 2 punters and 2 long snappers and didn’t sign additional DL or Edge. The staff tried to spin it that the 3 star JUCO and HS guys they signed will be able to crack the two deep across the front.

I’m really gonna miss Mike when he gets fired.

They usually have some pretty big frame linemen as Hammock liked to run the ball and defend vs it.

I know nothing of these guys except they made 3rd team All-MAC.
 
He must of had gotten notice that he was on the hot seat, otherwise leaving ur alma mater as HC for the same job as you had prior doesn’t make much sense. Or he could of just been sick of the MAC, who knows.

Team is moving to Mountain West. These teams are in poverty at that level. Too much work. Dude just wants to coach ball.

A lot of coaches are probably sick of the 24/7 job of being a college coach. NFL actually affords them some time off.

They were really bad this year…Worst year in a long time. Got raided in the previous offseason (even players making lateral moves) and almost certain Hammock was quite loud about how the portal ruined his team, they are also changing conferences.

Not sure much is left.

College has always been worse for coaches but now it’s even more of a nightmare. You have to deal with all the normal bs then constantly have to worry about recruiting your own kids , even if you have a deal and they’re enrolled. F that

Malcore makes a lotta sense. I know nothing too, still, why not? He only has one year left.

"It's a great honor to earn All-MAC recognition," said head coach Thomas Hammock. "I'm extremely proud…..Evan was the anchor of our offensive line and has been a solid left tackle in his career…."

Malcore started every game at left tackle over the last two seasons. The lone returning starter on the offensive line this season, the redshirt-junior helped lead the Huskies to 187.1 rushing yards per game, third-most in the conference.
