Kaleb DaBoer was at places like Sioux Falls, Southern Illinois, Eastern Michigan, Indiana, Fresno State …

He’s never had upper end resources, which is why he’s a good coach and ascending among the ranks. 
 

UND definitely needs to identify someone like this, which is why I would prefer UND identify someone consistently successful in division II who wants to move up to division I. 

has it ever been reported why kalen didn't get it........money, staff, wish list of facility upgrades?

Honestly I could care less about the Penrose banners!!! I’d trade all of them for just one national championship. If you think winning Penrose cups makes you elite then I guess you don’t expect them to win it all! Is 12 drafted players that good? What was it under Hak? You are honestly starting to sound like a womens hockey program closet supporter!!!! But but but Olympians!!!!!

I would also trade the penrose for a championship who wouldn’t, but, I’m not going to argue with you about if UND is an elite hockey program or not.

It is.

I also didn’t come here to bash the football program like you want to bash the hockey program for some reason by using quotes with elite. 12 drafted players is a nice accomplishment regardless of anything else. 
 

I came here to add my (less than) $0.02 on the coaching debacle, doesn’t mean I want to talk crap, poke fun and degrade the football program. I would like to see it do better. It’s that simple.

Never said UND is not an elite program but they sure haven’t been winning like an elite program. Hockey has no excuses for not making the frozen four more often and bringing home national championships. I would take zero draft picks if I could have another national championship. I’m tired of these other moral victories that we try to hang our hat on.

It sure would be nice to find the next DaBoer. No doubting what he accomplished. I just don’t think most guys could succeed like he did given the same situation. For example: Matt Entz or even Tyler Roehl. Both on NDSU fans !@#$ list right now

We're gonna win one this year with the help of these 12 NHL draftees.

That’s informative, thank you for that. Raises even more questions, as to where the money is going.

The refine button on that page allows you to add teams, tweek what is displayed, etc. 

Don't quote me but I believe how SDSU reports/records data the mortgage on part of their FB facilities is in their FB expenses shown.

If Bubba had the elite resources that Ag U has then he could probably win one title every 9 years too. Ag U still wins titles even with the worst coach they have had since before Bohl……

Maybe not perfect but there are a lot worse facilities than what is offered at UND out there.  Maybe if a Bubba team was able to keep excitement for the team more than a couple weeks into the season more resources would follow.

Which top 10 FCS program has worse facilities than UND? Maybe some top 25…

If NDSU had stuck with a tired old (but "safe") coach for one .500 season after another.....do you think they would still have everything they have now?  I'd argue no.  Get some excitement and momentum and the rest will follow.

How many years of rebuilding before a new coach builds excitement and momentum?

They have a pretty legendary coach that is trying to recruit every FBS transfer in the country. We will find out this weekend if they are really a top 10 team!

One man's legendary is another's notorious.

You said facilities. A coach is not a facility. Stay in a lane.

If it does have J Q Hammond on it it doesn't matter at MO St

They are waiting to get their new facility built too. Mo St is not typically a top 10 team, we will see if they are one this weekend

In NDSU's case, when they canned Babich after one losing season, the answer was about 9 months.
