Did und have any marketing
No.
No vision, effort or high-level expectations other than from a couple key individuals* in the athletic department.
*Lose those individuals and we’re back to square zero.

I'm curious how and why the long time radio voice of UND Football has a statewide daily radio show and doesn't have the UND coach on the air on a weekly basis (at least during the season), much less hardly ever?
How is this possible? Am I missing something?
I'm pretty sure Dom Izzo has our head coach on his show more than our radio play by play voice does on his....which isn't much.
Excellent point …
As you know, the media coverage of UND could be (and should be) much better.
Kudos to the guys at UNDFB360 for doing what they have been doing to try address this… but we need more. And should get more.

This sh*t is hilarious, but also, when is the running joke going to meet the solution?

Most all of the guys who show up and perform at camp and commit to UND turn out to be very good players, whether it’s their first offer or 10th offer, don’t matter.
The three commits UND got last week will be very good players for UND despite their offer status- they were under the radar but balled out in person at camp
this week on Thursday there will be some more top-tier guys that will join the squad and be key performers in the future for UND
its nice to have guys with several offers but the ones with minimal to no offers that come through the camps in-person are still very good

Having your compliance department knowingly ignore violations, especially when there are external factors that you can't control, is not a characteristic any of the leadership at UND is going to tolerate. Just my opinion from interactions I've had with people in those positions though. Again, I think this is a non-issue if the transcripts never get in front of the compliance department. But they did and here we are.
However, based on today's ruling on Texas Tech's QB, you could probably just sue the NCAA and get everything waived, but that speaks more to what kind of mess things have turned into than anything.
If 10-20 other FCS schools (plus nearly all the FBS schools) are doing the same thing BUT not reporting it, then is UND compliance / athletics exceptionally candid or exceptionally stupid (or both)? Can you confidently state other schools’ compliance departments are not reporting these type of “accidents”? Based on the numbers, it’s fair to say other schools’ compliance departments are in fact quite mute on this (contacting players not yet in the transfer portal).
I won’t overlook the role the coach had, though, to your point. If the transcripts don’t reach compliance then this is almost certainly a non-issue.
UND compliance has historically been exceptional in “rule following”, I’m told, but it is also probably not a coincidence that UND’s “wonderfully compliant” athletic department could be much better (in terms of $ and wins ) with new leadership.

I'm not too upset that we were trying to push the envelope. Better be on our best behavior now since we are under probation.
First sentence - I agree. We desperately need to be pushing the envelope.
Second sentence - this is the unfortunate fallout of the UND institutional fail.

UNDFootball360 will have Schmidt on the podcast to go over.
The kid's transcript getting to the compliance department and getting flagged seems to be where the issue popped up. How/why that got there seems to be the bigger question. Whether everyone is doing it or not (they are), can't put the compliance department in that position. Them not doing their job can lead to much bigger problems that are much bigger than the nothingburger that they agreed to.
This is one way to look at it but I don’t agree with it in its entirety.
This issue is a matter of perspective, and how UND and UND athletics views football is still an ongoing issue.
it can improve with new leadership, which UND needs. Thank you Bill Chaves for your efforts, but nothing lasts forever; time to move on to the next step so UND athletics can take the next step COMPETITIVELY compared to other programs

Integrity is the bottom line. The athletic department made the right decision. Hopefully, everyone learns from this and it doesn't happen again. Integrity matters.
Does it? When you incidentally speed, do you pull over and call 911 on yourself? Or just slow down and don’t do it again?
In this context, UND screwed up.
Debating about this on a forum is pointless, though, since this subject is basically the “unwritten rules” of competition …

- Obviously, I was being hyperbolic about the death penalty. But if the NCAA had found that UND's compliance office knowingly looked the other way, that would have been a much bigger issue. There was no containment here—the player could have reported UND, and Lindenwood's athletic department could have easily become aware of the situation. What would have been the risk to them? They could have faced consequences for failing to notify the NCAA.
- I agree that college athletics admin has become a joke.
- I agree that tampering is a problem.
But, under those circumstances, the penalties would have been significantly stronger, and FCS playoff eligibility absolutely could have been on the table if the athletic department had ignored compliance concerns. As it stands, UND self-reported the issue, received what amounts to a slap on the wrist, and simply moved on. Right move.
Or don’t report it, don’t go any further with it, no one finds out, and no penalties or negative publicity at all.
That’s the right move based on probability.
Without probability, and only integrity, you end up with losing (see ‘UND Athletics’ the last several years). Once again, nice guys finish last.
Need to learn from this on several levels, including UND Athletics Department. We all know the NCAA isn’t going to learn anything from this joke example of enforcement…

It was several weeks after they played us that Frost got fired
No. Frost was fired the next week after Nebraska lost at home to Georgia Southern. Frost would’ve been fired one week earlier after the UND vs. Nebraska game (2022) if UND had hung on and won.

We all know Perron is going to Michigan
We all knew Boisvert and Omac were going to Boston U
But Steppes is the issue?Bill Chaves has built and condoned a subpar overall athletic department. We need new leadership at the athletic director role. Pure and simple.
“Doing the right thing” is actually the wrong thing, in this case, when you consider athletics is competitive and everyone else is doing it (in this case having contact with a student-athlete prior to them entering the transfer portal).

This thread is titled Non-UND FCS News/Scores.
I propose it sticks to that and another thread could be created for News/Scores for teams that are not UND and not FCS for people that want to discuss that.
It’s 2026. Time to close this thread and start a 2026 non-UND college football thread.

There will be a very large contingent of UND fans traveling to Lincoln, Nebraska for this game.
I highly encourage all UND fans to make plans to attend the game on September 19, 2026, at Memorial Stadium. Great experience to behold …

2026 UND Football Season Thread

Of course. If the ag college of Fargo can be FBS, then THE University of North Dakota should have an FBS football program also. Put the plans in place, get it done. Win a couple FCS nattys in the interim. ndsu can’t run and hide from the state’s flagship university forever … although they’d like to.
