I don't think Smith who started his college coaching career as Miles asst. at Mayville and moved to SW Minn. and then NDSU should be over looked. He turned Mayville around very quickly (1- 27) year before he took over, what was that 3 years ago and in the title tilt.

I'd agree Saul Phillips is solid in house.....or launch a search for a HUGE name assistant from a BIG time programl. Craig Smith is NAIA. NDSU is DI.....i think that's to big of a leap even if Smith is a great coach.

How much more credentials does Saul Phillips have then Smith from Mayville? Has Phillips ever been a head coach?? I think NDSU needs to stay in state and take Smith well it can.

makes sense to me. it relates that a top NAIA coach is good enough to jump into a DI assistant job(Miller didnt say TOP assistant, just assistant) but not good enough to be a DI head coach. maybe he goes to CSU and then get's a chance at a D1?Wild Wolves wrote:How does that make sense? Can't be the head guy at NDSU but could be a top assistant at Colo. NDSU is missing out, I hope they aren't trying to follow the Minn. example.
Myron is the header at a DII school with a winning tradition(not a winning DII tradition but none the less) . I knew the answer to my question, it was meant to illustrate a point.
