Strength Coach Guy Nate is out there running football for UND, ... by him-lonesome-self, ... no help, ... no one else at UND has any experience recruiting or knows anything about football, or is in a position to say good things about UND Football, ... if only there were someone on campus to help Nate in the interim ... <cough> ... Faison himself ... <cough> ... Mannausau ... <cough> ... UND FB SID ... <cough-cough> ... but Nate's alone on an island ...

Let's see ... I run Company X and I just fired my Sales staff, but I'm going to send them out to try to close that last big sale. Uh-huh ... ri-i-i-ight.
<facepalm>
If there are recruits in the pipeline I'd expect an executive officer like Mr. Faison will be (or have someone) contacting them to update them, within NCAA rules and regulations obviously.

Pro or DI could just as easily be Tibesar or Kleinsasser.

After being relieved the smart move is to always take the high road.

Nelson tweeted that the Faison/Mussman meeting was "very emotional".
Is that the nice way of saying Chris cried?
-
New main contact for football is strength coach Nate Baukol. (hat tip to @TomMillerGF).
Seeing how weak our line play looked at times, should Nate be polishing up the ol' resume?
-
How long til we know a list of applicants or interviewees?
I think you kinda-sorta-maybe need a position posted on the UND employment opportunities site first to get that list.
The good news is that the position is open is on the national news wires. Candidates will know to start looking for the posting.

"Playoffs? PLAY-offs?"

We know the guy truly cares about UND, He was born and raised into it. He will not be always looking for his next and better job.
Uh, he's a Wisconsin alumnus. You may be overstating his UND affiliation and allegiance.

It'd have been a good plan ... if Lane Kiffin could (ever) mature.

I say we name CAS as the next UND FB HC.
Why?
- He hates to lose.
- He doesn't like UND FB winning.
It'd be like matter and anti-matter ... == POOF! == ... CAS vaporizes.

OC's and DC's from BCS/FBS teams certainly should be looked at!! Foolish not too, especially if they show interest in UND. No, that last part is not smack--didn't mean it that way at all.
What exactly has BB done that you all feel warrants him being a HC at this level?!?! And Sic, having a "shadow" HC with Brooks as the "named" HC so that he can be "the face of UND" football?!?! C'mon man. That is -- I hate to say it -- kinda UNDish. This is about winning football games, not beauty pageants. Hell, look at Bohl (or don't)<--he ain't much to look at, but his product is.
Jussayin'!!
I was thinking more along the lines of when Lane Kiffin was a HC with Monte Kiffin as one of his coordinators. (We know who the real mind in that set-up was.) Lane was the face of the organization and was supposed to be maturing into a real HC (epic fail).

A defensive-minded coach would be a very good start in the BSC. Couple that with ball control rather than "high-flying" and you have a recipe for success in the BSC. Look what SHSU has done to the BSC the last few years in the playoffs.
When I say "power game" in my mind that infers strong defense and a downhill run game with enough offensive capability to recover from two scores down. But I think we just said the same thing.
-
If we could get an old guy HC with Bollinger as the OC that would be ideal, but this may just end up being a boat we can't risk boarding.
Or flip that: BB as head coach with an Associate HC (in a coordinator role)* who is mentoring him.
*That'd be a guy who wants to keep coaching but doesn't want all the extra stuff (boosters, media, face-time, blah-blah) that comes with being HC.

Everything else equal I'd take:
- Midwestern guy over southern or coastal guy
- Power game guy over finesse game guy
- Guy with HC experience (any level) over guy without HC experience
*There's something about having been in a "buck stops here" job before, no matter the level. We didn't have that with the outgoing guy. I will say however, there are certain jobs that aren't titled "HC" that surely are under that same "buck stops here" pressure and you can use that prior role as a measuring stick.
