My general point was to discuss how former JuCos get larger. I don't know how people bring D-I teams into these discussions, or why they keep comparing them. I am under no illusion that UCO will ever be OU/OSU. The only reason TU is where it is has to do with historical location as the only game in T-town, and financial commitment to being at the FBS level. The reason most students attend D2 schools are either proximity to home, or lower cost, many families don't want to shell out for the name brand or they don't want the debt that goes along with it. I imagine most people that attend a D-I school is they want name brand rather than the generic version. I imagine a small percentage go for a specific degree that they cannot get elsewhere.Go Bronchos!

im not sure but i dont think moving to D1 right now is in the plans. i think what they would like to do is absolutely dominate in every sport. right now all of them are winning cept football.
as long as i was around the program, all i heard anyone talk about is winning games so they could put 8k in the stands every game. just my opinion.

If you want to compare apples to apples what about Boise State, or as they were known in 1965 Boise JC?
Enrollment is one way to make more money, but even with today's college costs, nobody can succeed at the D1 levels without private money. Heck, that's even true in D2.

Are any FBS schools looking at him to join their staffs? I cannot imagine a man who coached at the FCS level would be a D2 assistant.

I'm pretty sure you didn't read anywhere in this thread that it was ever mentioned Adam Dorrel would even consider a D2 'assistant' position for any team. Simply would never happen.
I am having issues where it wants to log me out after logging in, so I usually type and paste into a thread. I picked the wrong one. It doesn't happen on any other site.
Regardless. This isn't as split up as some of the old LSC threads where they literally broke threads down by a program's position.Go Bronchos!

I've been watching this conference for close to 20 years. His stretch as NW head coach gave some of the most dominant teams in the conference. Can he rebuild a school, has shown he couldn't at fcs level with Abilene. But everything is timing and location. I think NW had far more talent on defense than anyone else in the country when he was head coach at NW, that they would have won titles regardless. You literally could not pass protect with 6 vs them. What i did notice is, that the NW offense has been flat since he left. Particularly the offensive line. I haven't seen what I consider a typical NW oline unit in years. If he is going to be successful building a program in the MIAA he is going to have lock up the talent in his region (if it were UCO - don't let them leave the state), and get recruiters like Hays has with McCray, that can pick up talent in Florida or other states
How many titles they have since AD left? It's not because of any change in the abilities of the defense.

The offense has declined since he left. Did he take his oc with him? What about ol coaches. That seems to be an area of decline as well.
