Huh? That's how paying people works. You fire or extend. You would have fired him. The reason is he made them playoffs and beat NDSU. So they decided not to fire him. You really didn't know why they extended him?!

He has won a playoff game. Ok got it, you would have fired the head football coach last year after the playoff loss. A season in which UND beat NDSU. Little strange to me but to each their own.

Youre right its not a great accomplishment. but you want to fire Chaves for not firing the coach last year? That's a little out there.

Ideal? Nope. Fireable offense though? Far from it. UND President: "Why didn't you fire fire the head coach of Football program for only making the playoffs last year?!"

Yeah sorry. Edited. 4 of the last 5 before this year.

Not really. You could argue, it's the same as not firing him. Ain't no one firing a head coach that made the FCS playoffs 4 out of the last 5 years like Bubba has before this season. That's what were gonna blame Chaves for? lol

I, like most, really only follow hockey and football. Which he didn't hire. So there's really no point to be made there. If one is the actual AD for a day, the reasonable thing would to tell Bubba.... Next year (2025) will be your last unless you meet these parameters...like winning a playoff game. And if your Bubba you go "f, that's hard I've only ever done it once in 10 years!"

There will even be a repeat of this entire thread: Which is fun. We should fire ADs and coaches more often. just for my own entertainment purposes.

Them: "Im a Super Senior!" Me: "Hold my beer!"

I've seen that exact same argument for every athletic director and every major head coach for UND over the last 25+ years. Sorta rings hollow when its constantly thrown around.

Young coach who is good at keeping up with college hockey changing landscape vs older coach who is ready to retire on a beach and likes to overeat. Oops I said the quiet part out loud.

"But Faison sucks....him picking Bubba proves it" ....a poll on Sioux Sports: Bubba vs the future head coach of Alabama... Was like 53% to 47%..... It was close..... "Jamie pull that old poll up."

"Bubba you've been running UND football for a decade with some of the best facilities and budgets and have only won one playoff game?!" "That is unacceptable!" "But it's not your fault....the deep state told me you were better than the other guy that was 2nd place....the guy now coaching Alabama football....Saban's replacement!"

Didn't fire a coach? Fire the AD! President didn't fire the AD for not firing the coach? Fire the President! Lol

Also sat down for a Q&A with one of the most influential figures of our generation recently.

Show me a AD UND fans haven't said sucks the last 20 years? Seems like the easiest escape coat. Needs to stop. Two absolutely sucked and the reasons were obvious: Bunning sucked and didn't last long And if didn't resign was gonna get fired. Roger Thomas made us stick to D2. And now we're decades behind. The rest are just escape goats for upset fans: Brian Faison was instrumental in starting the strongest hockey conference on the country! Yet many sh!tied on him. And now Chaves. Who didn't fire the football coach before the season is over?! He didn't hire Bubba S or Brad Berry. It's like the UND "Deep State" state is the bigger issue...."must hire from within"....

No playoffs this year. One playoff win in Bubba UND tenure! Mussman numbers.

NDSU: We kicked their ass so bad they never recovered the entire season!

I'm gonna beat the traffic by staying!

Definately sent us the B squad refs.

And with that touchdown Everyone in my section got up and left.

Attendance 8974 Beat oxbow to it!

And that's the ball game. 21-35 USD 14 minutes left.

.....at least there's women's soccer!

It turns out the season turned out like we all assumed it would during the first half of the Montana game. .
