in this case perception isn't reality i guess.....no one watched that mess on saturday and thought .....this is high level football.
they more than likely thought it was 2 fcs teams going at it...which it kinda was bc
g6 is fcs
fcs is g6
2 years ago you couldn've put indiana in there and look what happened...
problem with the current and the future mwc is ..........learn these words....
strength
of
schedule
even if you "win" the mountain west conf title.....Poinsettia Bowl here we come
no one cares about fcs or g6 other than some casual fans and fans of said teams......
any casual fan watching that train wreck on satuday (either the one in the alerus or the fargodump) aint tuning back in anytime soon.
ndac football is about as nationally known as mount union and wisconsin-whitewater
what? going from fcs to p4 overnight? how about never
define "some national recognition"? do you mean the rat infestation in the dorms or the old AD playing around with glory holes on NP ave.
even if und's fresh numbers are down....is that a bad bad thing...or is it cyclical...up down up down...unlike ndac's enrollment is just down down down?
that's why i listed the teams i did ....not a big difference....alabama, wisco, and other p2 or p3 teams i agree but we aren't much different than colorado state or kansas statte
"better than going on the road?"
play on national tv (maybe)....get a milly (or more).....play a school an anverage fan has heard of (kansas/kansas state).....win the game and build your brand.
exactly....what would build/grow/get money more for UND...this home game with all the minus stated above or a road game versus Kansas or Colorado State and get paid 1 milly and maybe get a win too???
your bragging that yeah he's a bust but he's getting paid very well to be the biggest bust ever....got it
(check ticket prices for a Vikings game.....i'll pass)
