Who said anything about firing a guy after not winning one? My "absolutely" was about hiring the Yale Coach.

Hopefully Hakstol is on the same path of Parker. Well. I guess he's already behind on the first one. And in four years if he doesn't win one, he will be behind on another accomplishment of Parker. Rich Comley was almost run out of East Lansing after four or five years with Michigan State? In his fourth year he got second place in the conference and lost in the NCAA quarterfinals. Must be high standards in East Lansing.

Absolutely!

All true. But there are always deviations from the standard. You'll never find a one size fits all. But what we can do is look at Hakstols ten year average. And see a line that has a downward projectory in his NCAA tournament coaching record. Where he got his first year (the national title game), he has yet to go back to. Then the following three years after that he loses in the semifinals (pretty awesome start).... Then he gets back to the semifinals twice in the next six years (the last six) only to lose again. In ten years Dave Hakstol has been in the title game once. Don Lucia went from CC to winning a title at Minnesota in his third year. So "advantages and disadvantage of a program" do play a part. George Gwozdecky once going to a program with more resources (Denver) He won a title in year ten. Jerry York won it in year 12. That gives Dave this and next year to match Jerry Yorks first title. Took Jerry only 7 years to win a title at BC. In which he had to turn a program around. Red Berenson another great regular season coach. Not so great at one and done format. Like Doug Woog. Last years champion coach, Rick Bennett, had only been a head coach for three years before winning a ncaa hockey title. (How much did does he make at Union? Can we steal him away?) 2013 NCAA Hockey Champs. Took their coach 7 years as a head coach. 2012 Jerry York 2011. Sandelin. Took him 11 years. 2010: York 2009: Jack Parker: got his first championship in year 5 of coaching BU. 2008: York again. 2007: Rich Comley: once going to a "better program" in Michigan State from Northern MIchigan got it done in year 5. 2006: Mike Eaves. 4 years. 2005: Gwoz 2004: Gwoz 2003: Lucia 2002: Lucia 2001: York 2000: BLAIS. His second. His first came after 3 years as head coach at hockey rich North Dakota. By Far more often than not. If you don't win a championship in 12 years as head coach. You never win one. Even a broken clock is right twice a day?

http://www.inforum.com/content/workforce-woes-linger-f-m-businesses-say-finding-workers-tough-job " Fargo recently said good-bye to its last Quiznos sandwich shop." Due to lack of workers. Hard to imagine Fargo doesn't have a Quiznos anymore. I know one closed down in GF but at least one remains open. Might have been part of the reason one of the gf ones closed down.

Cool read.

That's where the logic is flawed. There is no "law of averages." UND is never due anything because they haven't won in a certain amount of time. The percent of winning it this year is the same as winning it all the last ten years. Just because I haven't rolled a one on a dice in seven tries, doesn't mean the chance of a one poping up increases on any the next rolls. That's the problem. Hak had a decade, and people here think his "chance will come soon, because he is due." Not true by anymeans. Quite the opposite.

Every opportunity Bartles have been given, he has beaten or excelled vs Mollberg. One half this year Bartles beat Mollberg to scoring two touchdowns in one game. (Scoring Touchdowns = Pretty Important). Last year Bartles Set UND freshman records in completions (39), attempts (59) and yards (367) and touchdowns (4) at Northern Arizona (Nov. 2) . Last year Bartles threw more Touchdown than Mollberg despite playing less games. And we are already seeing a pattern of that this year. My guess is Bartles must be pretty cocky and the coaching staffs don't like that. We have a massive body of work comparing the two in game situations and one clearly comes out on top. Any one got one statistic showing Mollberg is better?

Is UND's offense really bad? Or is the other teams defense's really good?!

It's unfathomable one would even consider starting the other guy!

Well I guess that shines a pretty good light on what probably happened.

http://www.grandforksherald.com/content/investigation-death-ndsu-student-bearson-active-killing-remains-mystery Why not? Don't want to scare the public? So talking about it on social media (Gossip and/or Rumors) might be help solve the case? Doesn't this go against what the NDSU president wanted?

How much better would Bartles be than Mollberg had he started what an extra ten or so games like Joe.

That's one nice building!

I've seen both Bartles and Mollberg play numerous times. Gonna lose faith in this coaching staffs evaluation of talent. Competition is actually not even close. #butpractice

Lead his team to score touchdowns like Bartles did.

Let's not forget. "Campus" is getting "closer" to the Alerus with the completion of the student geared apartments. It might take another year or two but lots of students within walking distance will only help.

How about if it was the gophers and not Boston college. We just enough to barely stay ahead of your rivals.

It will never happen. Mark my words.

If the Gophers were winning "nattys" like the Bison in football. I believe Hakstol would have been gone by now.

Loss like about a 1,000 less from those greatest five years of 2001-2005 to the last five years. About 9,500 to about 8,500.

What was average attendance during those years?

Took Bartles, what, one quarter to match or surpass Mollbergs TD drives the last two games combined?

Game is on in gf with midco
