Physical NDSU forward who brought size, rebounding, and bench toughness
In the 2010-11 season, Andy Nagel was a 6-foot-9, 245-pound North Dakota State forward who gave the Bison valuable frontcourt depth, appearing in 28 games and averaging 1.6 points and 1.6 rebounds off the bench. His value wasn’t flashy—it was the sturdy, matchup-friendly kind: size, physicality, and the willingness to absorb minutes against bigger lineups. For a team needing a low-drama interior presence, he fit the role of a dependable grinder rather than a featured scorer.
