We are definitely in a sad state if we don't even want our recruits to come see the team play anymore.
Its extremely difficult for recruits to make a visit during the playing season if you arent close to Fargo. Think of playing a game friday night. Then having to drive 5-6 hours or more to catch the game. Then drive back the same day or the next. Then school and practice on Monday. It can be exhausting.
Plus you also have to take into account the parents and their work schedules. Parents work all day. Then have their kids game. Then they have to drive most of the night on little or no sleep. Back to work on Monday.
Plus the coaches dont get to spend that much time with the kids when its during the season. Off season they kids work out with the players etc. The kids then get a feel for the guys etc. Granted you miss the electric atmosphere of the games but there is more quality time spent with recruits after the season.

You don't give out trophies for losing. Trophies for sucking. That's a communist idea. You don't get a trophy for losing. You get a piece of pizza and you shut up. Trophies for losing? What the hell happened to us?
