  • Who steps up at wide receiver in 2024?
    May 8 2024

    North Dakota State's 2024 offensive gameplans took a hit last week when standout receiver Eli Green entered the transfer portal.

    Green emerged as a downfield threat over the final six games of 2023, making several acrobatic catches and scoring three touchdowns, two of them in the playoffs.

    With Green's departure, that leaves NDSU without its top two receivers from a year ago after Zach Mathis graduated.

    Sixth-year senior Braylon Henderson and fifth-year senior Raja Nelson return for the Bison. Nelson emerged as both a deep threat and a running back over the final few games of 2023, while Henderson had his best year as a Bison. Between the two of them, they have a combined 119 receptions.

    After that, though, it's a big dropoff in the wide receiver room. Senior Tyler Terhark has the most receptions with four, with Chris Harris, Mehki Collins and Bryce Lance each with just one catch. Collins and Lance earned rave reviews during the spring and each had solid performances during the Green and Gold Showcase.

    Redshirt sophomore Carson Hegerle had his spring football end early with a broken ankle and his return is up in the air for fall camp. Cedric Wall has grabbed the coaches attention during practice, but has yet to see the field yet.

    NDSU has an incoming freshman in Omaha native Jackson Williams, but there are questions entering the 2024 season.

    WDAY's Dom Izzo and The Forum's Mike McFeely discuss the wide receivers and what's ahead for this year.

  • Jory Collins on additions and departures of the Bison women's basketball team
    May 1 2024

    North Dakota State women's basketball head coach Jory Collins has had a busy month.

    The Bison season ended at the end of March in the third round of the Women's NIT.

    Less than a week later, star player Elle Evans entered the transfer portal. Evans announced this week that she is transferring to Kansas to spend her final two years of basketball.

    Collins has been busy, adding three players to his team for next season. Australian guard Amelia Hobson will join the team, along with transfers Molly Lenz from Illinois State and Sacia Vanderpool from Wisconsin.

    They will join incoming freshmen Claire Stern and Marisa Frost on next year's roster, rounding it out with 13 players.

    Collins also discusses the challenges of trying to keep a player like Evans and how he handles the emotions of that decision.

    Bison Media Zone airs each Wednesday at 10:30 on WDAY Xtra.

  • 2024 spring football wrapup
    Apr 24 2024

    North Dakota State officially wrapped up spring football for 2024 last weekend back inside Gate City Bank Field at the Fargodome.

    The Bison still have plenty of question marks heading into fall camp, ranging from offensive line to secondary to wide receiver.

    The Forum's Jeff Kolpack joins WDAY's Dom Izzo to try and answer some of those questions heading into the new season.

    Also they discuss the addition of West Fargo native Jacksen Moni to the Bison men's basketball roster.

    Moni is transferring in from Northern State University out of the NSIC. He'll have one year of eligibility remaining for this upcoming season.
