Last call if anyone’s interested in helping Coach Williamson get the Taraflex floor. She’s about $20k short of the $125k goal. If you are considering it I would suggest you PM me with an amount. Don’t give it on that 1 day campaign coming up because the Foundation takes a fee. You want 100% of your gift to go towards the floor. Thanks for considering.

I understand why but I selfishly wished he wasn’t leaving. Mike is one outstanding young man. I pray he finds a good home.

The floor will be good for the athletes as it’s far more giving than wood. Iowa State, Creighton, and Nebraska to name a few currently play on this surface. Coach W runs an elite program and it’s a fantastic recruiting tool.
Thanks for considering

Coach Williamson is currently raising funds to purchase a “TARAFLEX” floor for her team. The cost is $125,000. If you’re interested in making a donation of any amount let me know. She needs about $50,000 to get it done. Thanks

Although my preference would be a Saturday game as well, think about the reasoning of why it’s Thursday. For starters this game should’ve been filled a couple years ago but it wasn’t. Our new AD made a decision to take this game and play it on a Thursday night for what I feel are all the right reasons. It’s Labor Day weekend so the students will be blowing out of Vermillion on Friday for the 3 day weekend. In a renewed effort to start engaging our student body he can capture their potential attendance and possibly coordinate it with a special promotion ( gimmick ) to start a new era of Coyote football.
I do understand those that can’t attend or engage in a full tailgate or puts a wrench into what could be a normal Saturday game, but I give AD Schemmel a thumbs up for trying to renew interest with the student body. I’m retired so the game could be on Wednesday morning and I’d come, but that doesn’t apply to everyone. My hopes are resting on the fact Coyote football is on the rise and should enter the season nationally ranked. That should spur interest from “us”…..the everyday fan. While Thursday night isn’t perfect, it’s doable. Let’s take a negative and turn it into a positive. Think of the energy that could spawn off a successful first night.
It is what it is. Let’s do our best to “kick off” Labor Day weekend in style.

Lamar had a conflict and we let them reschedule our return for a later date. As in years down the line. That’s how the game with Portland State came into the equation as well
We go down there in 2025 I believe

The reason is Lamar backed out of this years game. Hence the last second scramble to find a team.

This right here is why I have a pit in my stomach. I have no allegiance to either school other than I was born and raised in South Dakota. I like watching women’s basketball at all levels. I started following USD for a couple reasons. 1. Everyone else was following SDSU and I like to be different. 2. I loved watching the SD girls (Duffy and Lamb to name a few). 3. The crew that went to sweet sixteen was special to watch. You could feel it! We are going to be hard pressed to pull in any causal fans like myself with what SDSU has going on the next couple years. Hey, there is always time to turn to the dark side! Next year SDSU will have 8 SD girls and 2 Iowa girls whose home towns are a combined 2-3 miles from the SD border. There is always room on the wagon! jackwannabe has a nice ring to it! Yotewannabe is NOT in the fan teansfer portal. I should ban you for life for recruiting our peeps. 😄

Former Coyote Kameron Cline is playing tonight for the Buffalo Bills. He’s a defensive end wearing #96. Kam is a great guy. I think he was originally from San Diego area.

Any insight into why? Kind of strange to give up a HC job to come to USD as a position coach and them bolt after a terrific year. Odd It's easy to find good WR coaches out there, so not worried especially with a veteran room. Said he was leaving the coaching profession and going into business back home in Montana. I also believe there’s obligation to take care of failing health parents. Great guy that does the right thing

Although I can’t answer that for sure, I would think it has to be setup and aligned with the university’s vision.
Our new AD addressed it in meet and greet meetings and will start the process very soon I’m sure.
For what it’s worth, USD has “full cost of attendance” and starting next summer and off season summer meal plan. That’s more than most teams offer. NIL is the sexy headliner stuff but it all adds up
