We'll sim through 2030-31 and then I'll consider this idea. I'll probably do it on its own thread, not because anyone will read, but simply because if someone does want to read...it'll make it easier to follow the story without having to follow the MNSU timeline. I will still poke into this story from time-to-time, especially if they do well.

Former MNSU assistant Marques Terrell took the job at Minnesota A&M when his son signed with the program a few years ago. As a result, he's the first and only coach in program history to last more than 3 years as HC of the program.
There is no doubt he's turned things around in Rochester, finally.
