I'm more concerned about winning the battles vs the UNIs, ISU's, and thr Dakota schools. If we win those battles like we've done over the last decade, we will be successful.

I'm more concerned about keeping the coaching staff, Kramer, and thr whole system in place. The system we have is perfect. ND, SD, MN, WI, and Nebraska with the occasional warm weather skill player
Its hard to say now cause we just do not know, but on paper we seem to recruiting a higher degree of player....Winning out against FBS teams, 2 star QBs etc. Of course we should be able to land a higher quality of player ( on paper of course) as success breads success....that is until the the allure of FBS siphons off the top teams of the FCS. Then what....??? from my perspective, if we wait too long we will be nothing but a D2 team that should have jumped....da juve Sure it would be great for the P5 to shakeout and jump bla bla bla; however, we may not have that luxury. Thus my question, how many of the playoff teams (FCS Power teams) need to jump before we do?
