Shea took UIU to a .500 or better record for a window of time..and UIU is close to the toughest place to win in the NSIC. I think they have Shea as long as he's comfy there and then an asst takes that role after that.

I think Moon likes the idea of having a coach from SDSU or NDSU....given the street cred those programs have. I don't see Eck (SDSU OC) having that interest as he would seem to be the replacement for Stig when he retires (sooner than later). SDSU does have co-DC's..both who's been in that role a year. Bergy from AU is one of them, Jimmy Rogers (former star LB for SDSU the other).

Keep in mind, Schlafke and other names mentioned are just spitballing at who might be a good fit. He might have zero interest in the job and be perfectly content at USD and have zero interest in moving back to the NSIC and D2. But yes, that's been mentioned. NSU was at like 93k for Dosch as the head coach..and I'd think for a strong applicant that number would need to go up..as that's similar to the pay of a coordinator at the FCS level. The positions are of similar height..but some won't have interest in D2 after advancing to FCS. It's really all about their interest level in running their own program and seeing the school that has an opening..a fit for them. I'd imagine beating SDSU would give the USD coaches a shot in the arm..but at the same time they'll big figuring out who their new QB for next year..and that comes with it's own set of challenges when living in the 4-5 win area for 3 of the last 4 seasons.

Also, I wouldn't be surprised if there is a candidate from out in Wisconsin/Michigan. I believe Moon has many connections still that way.

You make a very interesting point, and a very valid one. Of the local kids in the Marshall are last 10 years who were difference makers in the area, SMSU got a handful, Mankato got some, but most went to NDSU or SDSU. Honestly we have done pretty well recruiting locally IMO but you make a good point. If the kid is really good, the are going to NDSU and SDSU. We just don't have a lot of D2 kids.

I've been to and seen the facilities in Marshall, StP, SF/Augustana, Mankato, Mary, Minot and StC. Marshall isn't that bad. A dearth of decent restaurants and activities for student athletes, but hey, what do they do in places like Wayne or Fayette (no offense)? It's a small town. Some kids come from small towns and enjoy the familiarity it affords; others come from BIGGER towns and like the small town atmosphere. No matter where you decide to play it's a crap shoot. If Marshall is the place you decide on, STAY. Nothin' p***es off a coach more than a commit who leaves cuz of a few minor issues he/she can't seem to handle. It's four years of your life...and took you 18 years to get there. Grow up. It could be the most important decision you make.

I think much of what he is saying is they don't give it a chance. I see it all the time in football and frankly in the student body population in general.
I sent my oldest off to college this fall with a simple statement. "It is what you make of it . If you sit in your room and don't get involved you will claim it is boring. If you don't make friends that is on you because there are 1500+ freshman in Moorhead. some of them must be interesting and fun."
