North Central WR DeAngelo Hardy is a longshot for the draft but will get a chance somewhere.
He had a record-setting career in D-3 and has a compelling reason for why he didn't transfer up.
'He walks in the room, he looks like a receiver from Alabama.'

@D3FBHuddle@FrankRossi I don’t entirely disagree (Couple NCC scores that disagree too). But think we’re seeing a lot of programs that caught up to the Purple Powers because you’re seeing a lot more talent come to this level. As much as the transfer portal has hurt D1, maybe its helped D3??
Lehnen deftly eludes the Wartburg pass rush & delivers a TD pass to Charles Coleman for a 26-7 @football_ncc lead w/2:22 left in the half!
Coleman this season - nine receptions, six TDs.

Speaking for a lot of fans (I hope), it is not as much as thinking being at Home or Away will affect the boys play. More-so pissed an outside source took away these Seniors opportunity to play in front of their home crowd that they’ve done so much for. They deserved better. #d3fb
The system is silly, and if NCC are as good as it looks like they are that will be put on full display
The players are worrying about it far less than many fans are (who I would agree need to relax just a little especially after yesterday’s demolition of a good football team)
The same way NCC didn’t get a home game against Mount in the Semifinals in 2021. They pick and choose which “criteria” they want to follow. At this point, I actually think the committee has some sort of vendetta out for NCC. Is it to protect their “storied dynasty” Mount Union?
"Again... defending national champion, but that's not one of the primary criteria."
BUT IT IS ONE OF THE SECONDARY CRITERIA! You're allowed to use those, too! But the thing is... You wouldn't even need to get to the secondary criteria to justify NCC as a 1 seed!
The #1 team in the country, defending champs, QB with one of the best regular seasons in ALL of College Football history… #2 seed though right? @NCAADIII@d3football@D3FBHuddle
The FBS single season passing efficiency record is 207.6, only 3 FBS QBs ever have broken 200. The NCAA record is 230.4.
Enter North Central QB Luke Lehnen, who is at 287.73 with 34 TDs and 35 incompletes. The Cardinals have won 25 in a row, looking to repeat as D3 Champs.
Y’all are some GOOFIES. The NCC disrespect is insane. It started with giving Mount Union a home game in the Semis in 2021 and still continues. Can't wait for them to SPIT in your face when NCC goes back to back. And I HOPE it's against your precious Mount Union again.
Three possessions, three rushing TDs. This time it’s QB Luke Lehnen for the 78yd TD and a 21-7 lead for @football_ncc over @WheatonFB (2:00 1st). @D3FBHuddle#d3fb
He won’t ever say it so I will… can y’all @d3football start giving him his flowers? Went to the Natty as a freshman, won it as a sophomore and had 51 total touchdowns and didn’t make an All-American team. Now in his third year, not even a preseason All-American? This is absurd🤣
Luke Lehnen is @football_ncc's 1st @CCIW_Athletics Offensive Student-Athlete of the Week for 2023 after accounting for 5 touchdowns in Saturday's win over Carthage.
Luke has the highest career passer rating of any QB in college football.
