Will picked up an in-state D2 offer from Wayne State earlier this month and seems to be gaining momentum with programs like Sioux Falls (junior day visit), Augustana, Washburn, North Dakota State, Northwest Missouri State, Idaho, St. Thomas, Minnesota State-Moorhead, Dordt, Southwest Minnesota State, Morningside, and Chadron State.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/william_gutz/status/2022459230658220246?s=20","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/william_gutz/status/2022459230658220246?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/hudsondjennings/status/2025329639149732293?s=20","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/hudsondjennings/status/2025329639149732293?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1085197"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-699a9b266ff25"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><a href="https://x.com/SageTooShifty" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">(@SageTooShifty)</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>It was a stellar first year donning the orange and blue for RB [player_tooltip player_id='1085197' first='Sage' last='Giddings'], who easily took the reins as Westview's workhorse back.
