You’re a complete idiot....
You don’t see any upside to “head coach of P5 school” title? Win there, and you can go anywhere you want. Lose and you have a P5 resume and can be a D coordinator pretty much anywhere, making more money and having substantially less responsibility as being a head coach.
Hell worst case scenario is you fail miserably and come back home to NDSU as a very rich man and spend the rest of your career back here in some capacity.
And if he wants any sniff at Iowa in the future, this is how he makes it there.
There is no downside to this. None. Failing is not going to make him any less attractive as a coach.
I'm not going to call you any names today, your posts speak for themselves.
There's a reason Snyder is coaching into his 70's. The last time he retired they had a guy named Ron Prince, a name that still gets you the stink eye in Manhattan. Whomever is the new coach will have a ridiculously short leash and Snyder peering over their shoulder the entire time.

I also see money as the only upside. There are too many factors working against him there. Snyder, Kansas hiring Les Miles, etc. I wish him the best if he gets it. He deserves to get paid. I just think that if his ultimate goal is to replace Ferentz at Iowa, that he should stay here until he gets a better opportunity. If he would have gotten the Colorado job, that would be a different story. That looks like a much better opportunity to build a resume than KSU at this point.
