I know; so I guess you know which way I would bend if those were my only two options.

In five years, we aren't going to be saying, "If only UND had hired a coach three days earlier!" It's going to be all about hiring the right guy. -- Brad Schlossman, Grand Forks Herald

The pizza in VC is pretty good, but what's that have to do with UND's next football coach? And with that I'm off to bed because I have a job to go to in the morning and a life beyond being the profanity police here.

You mean what's done already?

What's stopping you from moving there?

End of day Friday, I'd agree. Again, nothing other than intuition. And I still think it'll be a surprise. Why? The position is open for application until filled. Any new applicant scored at or above the reported list of nine could be called and hired without additional work. I don't know but believe that Faison still may have a surprise in store ...

<yawn> Mack Brown for UND 2.0

I can only work so fast. To all: Lose the profanity ... and don't quote it.

Given that DeBoer has never been at UND I think he could only be "Lennon 1.1" at SIU. At UND he'd be DeBoer 1.0 Thinking some more ... Bubba and Muss were Lennon assistants. ...Uh-oh ... Lennon is Thomas 1.1 Muss was Thomas 1.1.1 !!!

Yes, I believe that would be good. Focus on football, not past buddies and schmoozers. There are always new players, every year. Too long: 2-3 year plan. Sure, but focus on the back yard -- where the good linemen are. I'd like to see higher goals for winning than yours. Best player on the field -- class designation matters not, performance does.* *In hockey terms, skate or sit.

Lennon = Lennon 1.0 Mussman = Lennon 1.1 Bubba would be Lennon 1.2 UND 2.0

'kingranch': Please follow board rules and do not use profanity. Thank you. PS - I was nice and took care of it for you ... this time.

I'm going to keep saying I believe the program needs a fresh start. UND 2.0

Beating Any Defense with Play Action Passing -- by Kalen DeBoer <facepalm>

Good find, but I swear it was video.

I recall something (internet video maybe) interviewing DeBoer where he said that when he was at USF he had a library of tape on UND and modeled a lot of what he tried to do at USF after UND. In that same piece I recall him saying UND would be a dream job for him. But now I can't find it.* *And with that I have put this site's crack team of investigators on the case.

Dang, ... hadn't considered that ...

I can state this: As a head coach, Kalen DeBoer has a perfect record in Alerus Center.

Probably is. Figure out where Carl Ben Eielson MS is and you'll figure out what I said.

FIFY.

Bring SIU staff to UND; save franchise? That should get 'em rollin' at the SIU board.

My guess at an answer: DeBoer's offense hasn't been exactly ripping it up at SIU.

An HR department's job is the vetting process of candidates. If they know of one that just won't pass that process they won't pass the name along to save the committee's time reviewing someone who can not get the position. I've seen that when I've hired people. Me: "I know X applied. Why aren't they in this stack?" HR: "Uh, we know about this urine test result ... " Me: "<curseword>"
