NLCTigerFan07 Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 I was trying to find a SAC 2021 thread or something to post this in, but figured what the heck and just make a tew topic/thread for it. Carroll QB Jeff Becker announced last night via Twitter that he was committing to the South Dakota State Jackrabbits. Congrats to him! He can certainly sling the ball around. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTF Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Good for him. I thought he would go D1 after watching his sophomore and junior seasons, but I'm no scout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d argue that this gig is better than a dozen or more D1 gigs. So many kids grow up with a D1/FBS or bust mindset and then get impatient and hit the transfer portal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

South Dakota State is the real deal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would guess at BEST Becker could have gotten an MAC level D1 offer, and I think one could argue a top level FCS program over a small tier Group of 5 FBS program is a more attractive option.

I'm not sure a MAC program could match SDSU's atmosphere. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or he could have become a “preferred walk”on victim. Glad to see the Jackrabbits pluck a cherry from Indiana. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SDSU's conference, the Missouri Valley (also home to Indiana State & power North Dakota State) has held their own over the years against FBS schools. This is a pretty good source for listing FCS wins over FBS schools. https://www.ncaa.com/news/football/article/fcs-wins-vs-fbs-teams-all-time-victories-upsets 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gipper Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Best of luck to him! One of my client's daughter goes to SDSU--they're absolutely rabid about sports there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
