reading between the lines, they still left the door open for somebody other than the 4 being interviewed. one story in particular spelled out the preferred requirments with 5 years of D2 or D1 coaching experience. Craig didn't have that.
you know what would've been better than all their criteria? CAN WIN that's what UND needs.

Does having D2 or D1 coaching experience really make a difference in who you choose as a coach? Are these guys better coaches then some of the area guys that didn't get chosen? I hope they picked these guys by what they have done on the coaching floor and recruiting and not just experience. Hopefully they do interview a few area and alum guys too. and I hope they don't screw up this process like Mayville State did when picking a football coach this past winter.
you'd thin Sioux Boosters would be calling for mutiny if that is the case. similar to Miles interview at Carolina-W. AD wanted Miles, boosters wanted the 'other' guy. and the team/players suffer. another example of admin doing more bad than good
good point. thing is whose to say Craig Smith isnt the guy to take you through the transition IF they go D1. Either way it seems NOT interviewing Smith is tough to understand. It doesnt sound like d1 is happening real soon, so having a guy like Smith for a few years could really help the BB program....
