After a better but still disappointing season NIU negotiated contract extensions for both their OC and DC. NIU lost 18 players to graduation including QB Drew Hare who was drafted in the 6th rd. NIU has received no transfer requests this off-season. Recruiting went much better this year with a class ranking 47th best in the nation and finishing 3rd in the MAC behind Bowling Green and Miami (OH).

After a good but disappointing season NIU has hired a new OC and DC. NIU did not have any players selected in the NFL draft. NIU has received a transfer from Luke Elsner a DE from UTEP who will have 2 years of eligibility left after sitting out in 2016.
