Looking at that map, I can see that Coach Paul Rhoads shouldn't be running out of gas for at least a couple more seasons.

I see a university's physical location, academic standards playing a part in this but there has to be more than that....
are you aware that Wake Forest had a 12-1 season a couple of years ago? When is the last time ISU came anywhere close to that?
