Not an overly huge fan of FCS football although I try to support the Bears despite years of futility. Obviously things got a little more interesting with the signing of Petrino. To that end, today the Bears got a commitment from QB Jaden Johnson, a redshirt from Southern Mississippi. Kid had committed to Louisville under Petrino, then backed out and signed with Southern Miss when Petrino left Louisville. He rs as a freshman , and will be immediately eligible with 4 years. He was a ESPN 4**** , 247/Rivals 3*** and the 20th ranked QB in the country coming out of HS.He goes 6'2, 208.
Like I said, things got a little more interesting with Petrino; who knows we might actually win a couple games at some point.

Well, it's obviously a very strange year in FCS football, so it's hard to make declarative statements, but Bears getting a quick return on the Bobby Petrino hire. Go into UNI and beat current #10 UNI for the first time in a couple decades; that's a second straight road upset of a ranked team, 3 straight road wins, and a 3-1 conference record. Surprisingly, it's the Bear's defense not offense that has shown under the noted offensiive/QB guru. For the first time in eons, Bears looking to be a real pain in the arse in MVC football.

It’s amazing what a coach can do at this level. 30 years of pain and now we resemble what looks to be a squad getting better and winning games.

How long is Bobby sticking around? That kid going to follow him to his next gig? We'll see.
6'2 208 a little light compared to what UNI, SDSU, NDSU bring in.

At 5-2 in MVC (6-3 overall), If we can just beat UNI on the 13th and then take care of business at Dixie State the following week, MSU will be sitting pretty for the post-season.

Petrino strikes again!!
"A Big Ten quarterback announced on Wednesday night that he will continue his football career at Missouri State.
Jacob Clark, who has served as a Minnesota backup quarterback in recent seasons, tweeted that he is eager to start his journey as a Bear."
He had a lot of P5 & G5 offers out of high school. Looks like Minnesota's QB1 elected to come back for his 6th year so Clark and another QB (Annexstad) bolted. Annexstad landed at Illinois State.
