Hagler to Jamestown College--Very smart decision, plenty of competition, can continue his playing time as in North Star--but remembering that he is in college now, and nothing is a given. Too many times area athletes have been recruited or talked about for D-1 levels or great D-2 levels (20 yrs ago UND and NDSU) and have been red shirted for first year. The enthusiasm is then sucked out of them somewhat. Example-Scott Guldseth, Edinburg HS, went to LSU, ended up at UND and was a star. Todd Olson, Cavalier HS, went to UND, ended up at Mayville and fit fairly well. These are just a couple but I'm sure a lot of people in this forum have lots of other examples.
