With NDSU giving out 22 more scholarships shouldn't that be forcing them to settle for some lesser quality kids in order to fill the roster? They seem to be getting all quality boys this time around which is most unfortunate.
Is there any appeal, or is the NCAA like your mother told you when you were 6: " Shut up and quit complaining or I'll really give you something to whine about"?
I actually hope there's more to this than we are hearing. The kid contacts US and it sounds like we didn't even offer, we report this as a violation, and the NCAA penalizes US and the kid commits to Lindenwood. What am I missing here? We didn't even want the guy
So does the gobc or gfhockey cover the $25,000 fine? They could do it out of petty cash. I doubt any of the other restrictions are going do much damage.
More detailed explanation from Tom Miller. It was the same thing every other program does IMO. https://www.grandforksherald.com/sports/college/ncaa-penalizes-und-football-for-tampering-violation
I wasn't implying that NDSU would be the institution that Boise State is, I just meant that there's always the remote possibility they get some football love like Boise got. I don't see that happening either and I hope not but who knows. For now, who cares?
I don't see UND moving to FBS any time soon and I'm just fine with it. Unless NDSU becomes the next Boise State I have no problem with them in the MWC. They can live in their little world and we'll live in ours and do just fine.
While it seems so on the surface, do we want the entire staff being poached and have to start the process over? Do we need to look at bumping up salaries to stay competitive and stall out the better coaches moving on? We won't be able to compete with a G6 pay scale but being at the very top of FCS sure would help IMO.
