Gene Taylor would be much more credible in all of this save for:
- Taylor proposed a plan, Faison accepted, Taylor backed out of his own offer <-- some would say Taylor reneged on a handshake agreement; poor form in North Dakota
- the home and home he's since scheduled with Weber State <-- don't even try to tell me that a home Weber State game is more valuable than a home UND game to NDSU; and the return game vs UND would be more cost effective (bus, no flight) for NDSU as well; so much for the 'economic circumstances' argument posed
Those two pesky details hurt Taylor's credibility.
Taylor would be better served to just stand up and say he'll never schedule UND under his watch.
