    How bad did he want out of Fargo.  He took a job he didn't even care about, as it turns out.  

    A better opportunity came along. Nice try.

    Tyler Roehl got hired to be the associate head coach and running backs coach at Iowa State. I'm not a Bison fan, but Tyler is a great guy and this is a great opportunity for him. 

    Yep. A great opporunity. Wish him the best.

    So that's why Polasek gave him a promotion? And then gush to the paper how much they meant to each other and TP wanted him on staff? Might be just me, but that seems like a really odd way to encourage someone to leave to get more experience. 

    It made him more marketable. Assist head coach means more money also. It was a great set up IMO.

    I talked to an NDSU guy before Entz left and he was to the point he was hoping Roehl would leave or be replaced.   Everyone was tired of Roehl running the same QB run up the gut.  He probably got pushed out by the new Bison guy.

    Reality hit. He needs more experience else where for a Head coach resume.  Im sure that was a discussion that was had between Polacek and Roehl.

    Would you go with Roehl or Polasek? Sounds like those are the likely two finalists?

    Polacek Hes had 7 years of FBS to improve . Hopefully his game management is better than Entz. Tyler needs more time.

    Fargo media says he did a good job, might get another job next year after that performance 

     

    And Roehl is a better OC than head coach??? Or is that why they all want him to be head coach now instead 

    I didnt say anything about TR.  But he might be a better head coach than an OC. Dont know. But he cant be any worse in game management that Entz.

    Very strange move for Entz.....could it be, that he was told he will be replaced after the season?  That also seems odd.....not sure what to think about this news

    Not strange at all. He found out through multiple conversations that he needed some FBS on his resume. Going to USC isnt a demotion. It will be a career builder. Hes a much better D coach than he is a HC.

    Not a nickname but feast your eyes on the final six candidates for the new Minnesota state flag....

     

    https://m.startribune.com/minnesota-emblems-redesign-commission-aims-to-pick-five-finalists-tuesday-for-new-flag-seal/600321457/

     

    The finalists favored by commission members signal a dramatic shift in imagery from Minnesota's long-standing state flag and seal, which have been criticized for decades as offensive to the state's tribal communities.

    The seal, which is at the center of the state flag, shows a white settler plowing a field in the foreground while a Native American man rides on horseback into the sunset. Others have criticized the flag as poorly designed and too similar to other state flags.

    I do not understand why people think they need to change something just for the sake of change. What a waste of time and resources.

    Don't we hear from @Bison Dan that Fargodome operates at a profit?
    Where are those dollars for improvements? Why tax increases? 

    About seating: They should salvage the red/blue seats and sell them to VCSU to redo Lokken Stadium. :D 

    I think the Dome is throwing in 32 million.>>>?????

    Did you miss the 3% lodging tax.  City and the county would increase.

    Didnt miss it at all. But its a separate item. BTW I ve been to cities with a bigger hotel tax than Fargo. Why conflate the two?

    They should, but I think the NCAA sets the prices, or am I wrong there? Also, you would think there would be limited students as well. 

    NCAA doesnt set the price. But they do have a caveat when hosting that you CANT discount the ticket prices by a certain amount. Of which I cant remember.

    Probably would have if they would have bothered to put a bid in.

     

    This was negotiated before the matchup was even set.

     

    Regionalization isn't about spreading games out, its about reducing travel costs and making them bus rides if possible. 

    I know that but the committee can do crazy stuff at times to spread things out.

    No, the MVFC does not kick in any money. And that was something that hadn't been done before.
    If the committee decides to award a home game to a team regardless of bid, then how exactly would you propose to combat that? Earning a seed is the obvious answer but that isn't going to happen every year (or be awarded even if deserved I guess). If UND puts out a bid that beats everyone (outside of Montana) and still doesn't get selected, what can they actually do?

    Absolutely get the frustration. But if what everyone is reading between the lines on is close to accurate, there is some real BS going on with the committee. 

    Could be part of regionalization?  Having two playoff games 90 miles apart might not be what they are looking for?

    Agreed, amazed they would offer him based on what I saw in his time at NDSU. Fine, serviceable player, but not a real game breaker in my view. 

    They may not of offered him anything more than a walkon and if you do well theres a scholly waiting for you.  I cant imagine them offering anything more that that.

    So you are implying NCAA violations?

    Nope . Why would there be a violation? The coaches have been quoted saying the same. The players have also said so. So why do you automatically

    Have to conjoure up BS?
