I cannot believe that Omaha or USD didn't go all out blitz on him. He is originally from NW Iowa.
One other name to keep an eye on is Black Hills State SD coach - Ryan Thompson. He coached and played at Jamestown for a while. He got BHS to semifinals in D2 this past year.

Re: Summit League Coaching Changes
Paul Mills to Wichita State. wow imagine that
Re: Summit League Coaching Changes
Good for Mills, although I would want him here. Say what you want about coaching ability, but seems like his level of character leaves a lot to be desired.
Re: Summit League Coaching Changes
Some details on Mills' contract at Wichita State.
5 years, $8.5 million plus bonuses. Puts into perspective where we and the Summit stand relative to other programs and conferences.

The current expectations for DI basketball is to win a minimum of two games in Sioux Falls every March. There is $$$ in the FM area that want a DI Hockey program. Morehead almost got it it done a few years back. It would be fun to have another program on campus that would be capable of winning a national title. If/when football moves up, we will have zero sports capable of doing so.
