nothing directly but indirectly it’s just good for the sport and good for NDSU being NDSU is a FB school. If you have a kick ass NCIA or D2 teams in your area folks will follow them, kids follow them. That is that more kids playing Fball than being on skates or kicking a round ball around. When you have this shit and thugs running around causing issues it gives everyone a black eye.....of course relevant based on the degrees of separation, but there is an effect.

Wow that's a stretch!
Re: Minot State football coach resigns
I've heard that there is something in the neighborhood of 95 applicants for the HC opening in football. No word, however, on when they will begin narrowing things down. Ideally, wouldn't it be a good thing if they had someone in place by signing day?

Yes and with someone who can build a winning program for a change....U Mary needs to get their shit together too. They've had NAIA teams that would have kicked the shit out the garbage thats going on there as of late...

Recruiting NAIA and being competitive in Bismarck and Minot are a different animal than Recruiting top D2 against MN, IA, and SD schools that have a larger and more talented pool to recruit from. Minot especially has to be a very difficult place to recruit to, they are really in the middle of nowhere in terms of the NSIC. Maybe I'm totally wrong but in ND having Two DI, Two DII and numerous NAIA plus throw in MSU-Moorhead and UM-Crookston there isn't much left for talent in ND or NW MN

Again, there were NAIA teams that Mary and Minot had in the past that would have kicked these current guys around...all those schools you mentioned were all still there in the past when these schools were NAIA.....soooo come again.
Let me indulge you for a second...then what is Northern St's excuse? They have a very successful football program as far as the NSIC goes... Have you been to Aberdeen, middle of nowhere??? Bismarck and Minot are paradise in comparison...
Also NAIA teams like Carroll College and Sioux Falls (when they were NAIA) dominated that division for decades and would have beaten a lot of, if not most, Div II teams...Carroll College being in middle of nowhere Montana and Sioux Falls in a hotbed of many DII and NAIA teams...
Re: Minot State football coach resigns
It's interesting to me to see Northern on National Signing Day
and how many Fargo metro area recruits the Wolves sign.
Right now I count 7 Fargo area players on their roster, plus they
have more from the rest of ND.
Don't know if they are winning head to head against MSU-Moorhead for
these players, but they are doing a good job with FM being a pipeline for Aberdeen.

Recruiting as an NAIA school is easier in a lot of ways. When Minot St. Was good in the 90's they had a lot of success recruiting Canada with guys who would have trouble with the NCAA clearinghouse.

More proof that UMary and Minot aren't doing enough. Thank you.
