520 . ‡aWhen Ross Fortier signed on as head football coach at Moorhead State College in 1970, there was little reason to believe he could transform the Dragons into a major player on the regional and national level. It didn't take Fortier long to begin collecting conference titles and advancing to post-season play. That Moorhead State became a certified NAIA stronghold by doing football the right way was reason enough for celebrating, but it was his guidance and inspiration that led a legion of former players to a rich variety of post-collegiate careers. They followed his lead, remembered many of the lessons football taught and dared to dream big. That is arguably Fortier's greatest legacy.
