North Dakota State running back CharMar Brown, a key player in the Bison’s recent FCS national championship win, has entered the NCAA transfer portal. The 5-foot-11, 218-pounder had an impressive breakout season as a redshirt freshman, winning the Jerry Rice Award for national freshman of the year at the FCS level. Brown earned several accolades, including second-team All-MVFC honors and being named both MVFC Newcomer of the Year and Freshman of the Year.
In his standout season, Brown led the Bison with 1,181 rushing yards and 15 rushing touchdowns, helping the team secure their 10th FCS national championship. Despite his departure, the Bison will still have experienced depth in the running back room, with Barika Kpeenu expected to return after a successful season rushing for 725 yards and seven touchdowns.
Brown’s decision to enter the transfer portal highlights the unpredictable nature of college football’s transfer landscape, with even top players like the defending FCS national champions being affected. As Brown explores his options for the future, North Dakota State will continue to work towards maintaining their success on the field with the talent and depth they have in their running back room.
