From the expense side, yes, dropping Muss results in added expense for UND. However, once loss of revenue, brand, and goodwill are factored in, the school would be better off firing him (4 years ago). Long-term damage has been and is being done to the program and school every week he remains. It's difficult to admit, but Moo U is winning the battle over UND for the hearts and minds right now. I wouldn't be surprised if ndsu's football team was a factor in UND's freshman enrollment dropping 20% this year.
