Exclamation Hustle Belt Article NIU Dynasty
http://www.hustlebelt.com/mac-football/2...is-dynasty

"The school could have let go of Joe Novak following that 2-9 season in 1998 and been completely validated for it. After all, that was the all-important third year for a new head coach to put his system in place, his recruits in position. But the Huskies kept Novak, believing that he was the program-changing mind every school seeks in spite of the monstrous struggles in the first 33 games. What followed was seven straight winning seasons, five division co-titles and the birth of the new NIU."

Thank you, Cary Groth. Your patience and wisdom helped mold this program.

Cary Groth - a rather forgettable tenure at Nevada. Nice piece from Hustle Belt

didn't they go to like 7 straight bowl games and move into the MWC?

Doesn't seem all bad. I agree it wasn't some world changer.

I'm not sure if moving into the mountain west is something to hang your hat on - kind of like moving into the MAC after BYU, TCU, and Utah left.

Legendary coach (at least out here) who created the pistol offense that has influenced modern offenses. Nevada has a good program, but they elicit nothing more than a yawn nationally.

Wonder if Novak will be in Detroit. Wasn't he at one of the MACC?

I know he was there in 2010 and also last year. Not sure about the other years.

He was there when they won it in 2011. There's a picture of him with some of his last recruits like Olson, Wedige, Schiller and Newcomb.
