Can't wait for people to make more of this then it is all week.

Yeah, NDSU will still come in here and play their absolute asses off. However, I do wonder if some of the players on their roster already considering the portal and NIL money maybe take the leap now……
I think this actually makes them more likely to stay through a potential NC run. "Win it all for coach one last time", and all that.

Feels like it could happen. Wasn’t he NDSU through and through before he went to the neighbors?

Yes, it could happen, and if you read their board (I peruse there sometimes) their fans really like vigen as a candidate too

Why would he leave to live in a way shittier place? Both programs are good.

I’d feel a little on the abandoned side… but what do I know.

Thinking about it more, I actually see it two ways:

1. These kids are probably planning on leaving anyway, so Entz leaving after this season doesn't really bother them. There are probably other kids that might leave that wouldn't have before, but I doubt they'd do so before the season is over. However...

2. If I'm a kid that has $100k-$250k in NIL lined up on the condition I transfer and play next year, why in the world would I risk getting hurt in 1-2 more games, putting that money in jeopardy?

Is Entz leaving immediately? I don’t think I saw one way or the other.
 
NDSU Players are either going to:

Play like their hair is on fire for their coach

OR

Not play as hard and possibly cash it in at half time

We shall see what they do
BAD timing on the coach to do this.

Oh, I'm assuming he's coaching out the year, but all this changes if he leaves right now.

If you remember, Bobby coached SDSU's special teams in their bowl game after he had accepted the job here and been introduced. No reason to think Entz would leave immediately.

My immediate thought was covered in your #1. This gives players that are considering a move permission/excuse to do it and a bunch of cover.

No
 
If you like subpoenas of process
And your quarterback in pain
If you’re not in Dakota
And you hate drivin’ trains
If you like makin’ fun of Twilight
On VHS cassette tape
Then I'm the coach that you've looked for
Write to me and escape
 
I don't care what type of player you are, this will affect your psyche to some extent during the week when your coach announces he is leaving.

I
 
I'm certain we'll be assured this is no big deal by Bison fans all week,.

But if NDSU loses, it will an immediate excuse.
