I know I’m in the minority here but unfortunately for UND that Grand Forks simply isn’t a desirable place to live while in college. You can dispute this as much as you want but hockey aside the college isn’t relevant. Feel free to keep the rose tinted glasses on. 

We dispute it because it's not true. Period.

And you better not be the infamous JBB in disguise.

I had a blast living in Grand Forks while going to UND back in the late 70s and early 80s.

GF is half the college town now it was back in the 60-70's.

All while the town (GF) and college (UND) continues to support more and more students (increasing enrollment) and more and more infrastructure … nice try Bison “ the troll” Dan … and Fargo ain’t a college town either, more like a crime destination dumpster fire …

It's amazing how Simple Dan shows up from time to time here.   "Troll" is spot on.

GF is not Mecca, but have you been to Vermillion or Brookings? Cedar Falls, Laramie, Greeley, etc. It's the coaching/recruiting and the AD hasn't put any serious effort into BB and only recently into FB and hockey. Gotta be the cushiest AD job in the midwest.

Or maybe good coaching candidates aren’t interested in coming to Grand Forks? Sorry but you’re making Grand Forks out to be desirable to live for coaches and athletes but the hiring of quality candidates doesn’t seem to happen and that is geography along with the bad AD. You have rose tinted glasses.

There are worse places to live than Grand Forks. But not many

Why? Because they're posting opinions you don't like? Does it hurt your feelings to hear that Grand Forks isn't a preferred destination for players and coaches despite having a nice campus?

Or that playing for a team that struggles to be .500 vs D1 teams doesn't seem so appealing. Or that not having a dedicated practice facility turns people away when similar schools have one?

The term you're looking for is called trolling

True and most of the campus buildings are deplorable at NDSU

It’s not trolling this is simply reality. Grand Forks is not a desirable place to recruit or coach. Sorry to the people who think it’s the promised land but take off your tinted glasses it’s not a good place to live in comparison to 99% of the US

Can we just stop giving the bison fan attention

But you think Vermillion and Brookings is better ? Have you ever been there ?  The point is we have a bad AD. There is a good coach out there that would love to come to Grand Forks.  We need a AD to find them !
