I think Matt Larsen just got worked over by Polasek for more money. A couple schools had openings and Tim said his agent was "in contact with a lot of people right now" and now he's saying his agent's discussion "wasn’t so much between his agent and other schools but between his agent and search firms".
Larsen got punked.
Plus he can't have it to close to him in fear of it getting pushed on the field when the three backup QB's are relaying plays in via hook fish, helicopter, star wars, etc signals.
First there's the end of the year tax consequences and then you can't spend a dime at Chipotle, the union, Micks Office, Target, etc, etc. She sold out her legacy for that?? What's her degree pursuit, cow milking and sheep shearing ??
The one thing that always seemed off to me was Barry's demeaner on the bench. He always seemed like he was in panic mode. Pacing, leaning into someones ear but then pacing again. I didn't see an aire of confidence or conviction.
Once you have the coach that can get them here, these very "boxes" will keep them here and if/when the coach moves on to a bigger program, they won't regret for a second they choose UND for their NCAA football career. The UND football players I've known are extremely loyal to UND because of their experience here and it has not always been because of the games they've played. The point is mute of course when NIL $$ comes a calling.
