If/When Klieman does move on, I just hope circumstances allow for a better timed and more graceful exit from NDSU. I think he deserves that.

Little known fact: UNT (North Texas) won 6 Gateway/MVFC conference titles between 1981 and 1990 but due to a surplus of white garage door paint in the northern regions of Iowa and poor security of the conference record book UNT was changed to UNI for said titles. The rest, as they say, is history.
Not quite. UNT(NTSU back then) was part of the I-A portion of the MVC up until 1974. In an attempt to work their way into the old Southwest Conference, UNT dropped out of the MVC to play as one of the many I-A independents of the time. In 1982, the Southland dropped to a I-AA conference, and UNT joined the following year after being forced down to I-AA by the NCAA because of financial problems. It was during the I-A independent period that Jerry Moore coached at UNT(1979-80; his first HC job).
The six MVC titles were way back in 1958, 59t, 66t, 67, 71t, & 73t.
While watching Colorado play USC tonight, I notice the Buffs had an old-new look helmet. At first, I thought it was a slight rip-off of the old NDSU Snorty logo, but it turns out it is a logo from the 40s (https://www.ralphiereport.com/colora...go-helmets-usc).
Comparison of the two helmets:
With that said, can't wait to see NDSU beat these guys in five years!!!
Hail the BISON!!!
