I would apply. Although I am not great at recruiting either as my sixth grade traveling team is lacking some talent. I have family in town so now we double the attendance which is helping with Walseth's buyout.
There is no risk with this job right now. The only direction is up. Recruit MN and ND hard and pick up a few Wisconsin girls and you have it. That would already decrease the oversees recruiting budget so that is a net positive.
