NIU’s freshman QB with upside, but no public game tape yet
Dane Hatfield enters Northern Illinois as a freshman quarterback with a strong frame at 6'2", 194 pounds and clear developmental upside, but there is no public college stat line yet to judge his current production. He stands out more for projection than résumé: a young QB in a crowded room, coming from Herbert Hoover (W.Va.) with recruiting buzz around his athletic profile and dual-threat potential. If your team wants a ready-made producer, he is still a wait-and-see; if you want a moldable arm with future traits, he’s worth a hard look.
