Beating a MVC team was fun, but not much else to build on until conference play started.

bingo. if NDSU took a dam risk , brought in a P5 team, hell a big ten team. they'd sell out at 6000. 4000 more seats @ $20 = $80k. that should be cost prohibitive

Reality Check.
Creighton? They AVERAGE 17,000 fans for home games. That’s approximately 3x the size of our arena.
Wichita State? Their coach makes $3.5 M. That’s more than our entire MBB budget.
$80K to buy a P5 or high major? Try twice that. Math doesn’t work. P5’s pay more than that to buy us.
Pipe dreams are fun, but reality is this is a slow burn and we’ve got a lot of building and winning that needs to happen first.

You're either trolling or incredibly dense. How do you expect him to recruit a 2020 class with 4 scholarships coming off the books next and no contract after the current season? This is about as good of a result as you could've hoped for if you're wanting them to move on from Richman. They had to extend him. The fact he was only extended for 2 years is pretty telling IMO.
