I didn't see anything in DiNoochy that indicates anything better than a solid FCS QB.
Obviously Belichik knows more about football than I do, but I'm not sure what he's seeing.

JMU accelerating realignment discussions as travel costs weigh on mid-majors. From McFeeley tweet.
A geographically optimal 11 team football conference (drawn from FCS and G5) for NDSU would reduce travel miles by 18% and include: UND, SDSU, USD, UNI, Drake, Northern Illinois, W Ill, Ill St, Valpo, and Montana St.
A geographically optimal 9 team basketball conference would reduce travel miles 23% and include: UND, SDSU, USD, Neb-Omaha, UNI, Drake, Northern Illinois, and W Ill.

We all live in stories... It seems to me that a definition of any living vibrant society is that you constantly question those stories... The argument itself is freedom. It's not that you come to a conclusion about it. Through that argument you change your mind sometimes... That's how societies grow. When you can't retell for yourself the stories of your life then you live in a prison... Somebody else controls the story. - S. Rushdie
To be clear, none of that is him. He just provided a link to a JMU story and I ran those numbers just to see what an ideal, but yes, totally unrealistic geographical alignment would look like for NDSU. The decrease in miles surely overstates any actual savings as even an ideal alignment wouldn’t result in new conference mates within bussing distance.

Heard Belichek is really itching for another QB that can throw a Pick 6 to end the season in the playoffs, prematurely. Nookie has 2 years of Playoff film the patriots fell in love with
1. The FCS was the Best option for NDSU for a very long time.
2. As a general rule- the FCS sucks at football and has proven that is not committed to football at all.
3. It's time to go FBS
