Let me fill you in on a little secret. UND has played football for 130 years, and has only won one national championship. That's a lot of years of holding your breathe....similar to being a MN Vikings fan.

But seriously, the guy was 65-22 at D2 level and got canned. Because the athletic department expects championships. Are we so far gone that we don't even expect championships anymore?

You = winner. High Standards.

Yeah trying to say its not high standards to fire a coach after missing two straight years of playoffs. Especially when he took over a program that has the most titles in D2. And they had won multiple right before he took over. I consider that low standards. Maybe that's just me.

You're trying so hard, I get it. "Bubba has two"

Yeah. Bubba has two conference titles so hopefully the new guy can do better than three conference titles. Hopefully the guy takes the program on an upward projectary from when he took over. Unlike the NWMS guy. Who took one at the top and only took it downward.

Nice....so a lot like d2 and Northwest Missouri State: Not getting a participation ribbon in a water down division and waiting 2 year of missed playoffs before firing the coach.

I will watch the game. Pride Thanks to our seniors noon game - not on Midco Noon Football at No. 14/13 Illinois State Normal, Ill. ESPN+ Fighting Hawks Radio Network Live Video Live Audio Live Stats Preview

Hopefully he can quickly replicate the 65-22 record and three conference titles that NWMS guy had

Making the FCS playoffs in this watered down version isn't much more than a participation ribbon. Getting a seed is currently a better indication that you will compete.

Was basket weaving a major or just a series of classes at that time?

Bubba has yet to miss the playoffs two years in a row since joining the MVFC. But if he does, he will likely get fired too.

Almost everyone who left last year went FBS. McNaboe on a roll tonight for Ohio. Ventrelli in CFL. A couple quit football at the top of their game. Talent is not the problem. Is the talent all on the field and playing and being put in the best position? Is rushing 1 or 2 guys on defense a good strategy? Is being able to throw a football important at certain positions? McNaboe just had another tackle.

Not sure but I expect it's higher than what we had in the 80's for the teams I was on.

Great point!

I admire your memory skills, I remember my opinion on the matter, but who said what, not a glimmer of individual recognition.

You’re 100% correct that people always wanted Hak fired and now they are the same ones that want him back.

Let’s check the UND at ISUr thread and see if Saturday matters oh… wait…

Good work, how does that compare to the competing universities?

Listened to Brad podcast, and he called this a "bye series." So UND learned a lesson against Canisius and not play this game on the road and just pay them to come to the REA.

from same article. https://fightinghawks.com/news/2024/1/25/general-fighting-hawks-shine-in-classroom-during-fall-2023-semester.aspx Overall, the student-athletes combined for a 3.391 departmental GPA, making it 31 straight semesters above the 3.0 mark as a department. 300 of them – a monster 81 percent – earned at least a 3.0 and an impressive 95 collecting a perfect 4.0 mark for the semester. Of those 95 perfect scores during the semester, a whopping 63 student-athletes maintained a cumulative GPA of 4.0 during their academic careers. In addition, 89 Fighting Hawks earned a selection to the Dean's List while 51 were named to the President's Honor Roll.

I noticed D2 Northwest Missouri St fired their head coach after missing playoffs two years in a row. Standards.

Didn't dig too deep but this is from Fightinghawks.com and fall '23. Pretty good GPA across the board other than men's bb.
