FULL SHOW: Travis Johansen & Montana FCS analyst Samuel Akem preview USD's game while portal game is (maybe) on

from Happy Hour with John Gaskins · host John Gaskins

The real games go on for South Dakota, Montana, and the other six other teams standing in the FCS Playoffs.    Happy Hour spends over an hour today with a guests from USD (head coach Travis Johansen) and Montana (former Grizzlies wideout and Skyline Sports FCS analyst Samuel Akem) to bring all kinds of insight into the teams, their impressive wins last Saturday, and how they'll match up on ABC this Saturday.   Meanwhile, The Hunger Games of recruiting — the transfer portal — are already (maybe) in full effect for teams like South Dakota State and North Dakota State, as all FCS squads whose seasons are over hunker down to fend off the FBS vultures and their NIL money.   Vultures like Iowa State, now led by Jimmy Rogers, who was still at SDSU less than a year ago. Rogers on Wednesday reportedly hired his new offensive coordinator. Tyler Roehl was an assistant coach at NDSU for 10 years and the OC for his last five (2019-23), going head-to-head against Rogers (Jacks DC 2019-21 and head coach 2022-23) six times, with SDSU winning five.   It is conceivable the former enemies now attached at the Cyclone hip will try (or are already trying) to bring some Jackrabbits and Bison, and (just maybe) some from the state of Iowa who Rogers and Roehl may have brought to their respective FCS powerhouses.   So, maybe, just maybe, Iowa State's recruiting will have a significant impact on the 2026 rosters (and beyond) at those two powerhouse.   What should we make of all this — both the poaching of players and the Roehl hire? Happy Hour host John Gaskins tries his best in the "John-o-logue" portion of the show before he talks real games with Johansen and Akem.
