The second Bubba left the head coaching position at Duluth....they won a national championship. Despite the red flags....they picked that guy, over the guy who came to the Alerus with a lower division team and laid a whopping on UND.

Maybe Chaves guy said yes and then that got the ball rolling on "let's have a talk Bubba"?

If UND didn't hire from within so often maybe we wouldn't be in this position and only have one championship in a 100 years. The status quo is obviously not working.

Age matters: Tony Annese is like 63 years old.

Steve Ryan at Morningside ready for a new challenge?

Might just be worth taking a gamble. Especially since he's a coaches son. Runs in his blood. Won a championship as a player in HS. Became the Captain of his college football team.

Taking over Mount Union is similar to taking the keys at NDSU.

Ok...so FBS poaches FCS... So I guess if FBS usually decides their best bet is to poach lower leagues... I guess UND should copy that and poach a lower league.

Idk his last head coach position, Cal Poly, thought they were getting a good head coach too:

Pay Brent Vigen whatever he wants.

Jake Landry a dirty word around here?

How far back you gotta go to see UND hire a head coach without prior UND experience? Over 70 years...like leather helmet era football?!

D2 or another FCS coach....don't matter...can be a current coordinator but I'd like to see successful college head coach experience....someone with an upward projectary.

SiouxSports Experts.

A real leader doesn't wait for applicants to role in, he goes out and gets his guy.

I want an actual head coach not some coordinator. Two different things.

We know it'll be a former UND guy.....cause that's how UND roles....so which one is the only question. I guess it's Schmidts job to lose?

Oh look I guess Chaves isn't anything like people talked about on this website.

Good thing NDSU doesn't have hockey, they'd be light years ahead of Bemidji State.

Yeah he's definately content. Don't blame him. At a certain age you like comfortable. Hate it though selfishly.

Wonder what the grant says the minimum length of service must be... Then we'll know how long the flight will last.

Wish the cay owner had a desire to grow more. I don't think they are on any delivery apps. And they have limited hours.

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.

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.

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.
