The general rule is you are usually good at coaching OR good at playing. Being a good football player has zero correlation to being a good coach.

Other marquee programs? Why not just look at this one UND? Dave Hakstol is setting a record at UND....he's working on the longest championship drought in UND history. #buttparity

The guy that gets the job will only "apply" after Faison contacts him and interviews him.

Sorta like not one person mentioning Brian Ferentz. He played at a Big Ten school, played in the NFL, Coached in the nfl, and is currently a position coach at a big ten school in Iowa so he also is familiar with the area. Why has no one mentioned him (or numerous others with the same "qualifications")? (hint: no _____D connection)

Does it have to be a qb? Does it have to be the big ten what about the sec? Lots of high school coaches. Probably about 15,000+ "former high school coach" probably 50,000+ Lots of FCS/FBS/NFL assistants (and most probably started coaching hs or just were on a much faster track) I don't think Nick Sabin played in the NFL or coached a high school.

And brooks Doesn't have any of that experience....although a year or two of head coaching high school?....his greatest asset to UND fans..."we know who he is." Not one person would be mentioning him if he wasn't from gf....numerous other coaches have the same or better credentials.

I want a winning coach...that's a much better way to "sell the program" to alumni and students.

Which is sad....learning who the applicants are not from the Herald.

Bohl was meant to win Bowls.

UND app says "free webcast" for Friday and Sunday. Saturday PAC 12 network.

Hope he doesn't quit his future job on his employer if he suddenly has a new boss.

Maybe he didn't make many friends in college...except Mussman.

Meant Division I or whatever the upper division was called back then.

Midco has a contract with UND and built a MidcoSports office next to the Ralph. UND fans in Fargo will get to watch more games. Increased exposure in a market that is an easy drive to UND is a good thing for UND. There was a push to keep UND off the air in Fargo (I believe Cable Ones head honcho is a teammaker) and that now appears to be failing. I'm sure Midco will want to add NDSU to their lineup but UND not only has a large following in Fargo (going to school at UND most students were from Fargo or the cities) but also offers the channel more games thanks to hockey. If I remember correctly UND got a million dollars for their contract compared to about $225,000 for USD and SDSU and that's with Midco being based in the Dakotas largest city. Let's not forget Midco Sports Network basically started because of UND Sports Network (formerly FSSN). And if there's a conflicting schedule Midco will just put one of the games on another channel.

So in other words it's going to be a long season if UND doesn't sweep St Lawrence.

Good news for UND.

<------- Even though I don't have a photo session set up this year that same weekend. I'll be there.

Hyslop...what a distant memory...even though it wasn't that long ago. Thank Gosh for the Betty (Engelstad gift) otherwise we'd be playing there and tryin to raise money to upgrade like the Bizons. Speaking of doesn't even the swim team have a video board?!

Would be nice to be able to read the articles about yesterday's game on the front page of this site. This offseason I was at a table with Troy Huff so I know he reads this website.

I'm sure the big plan ticket package is a reason for that. And with the win yesterday I'm sure a large percent of those fans will probably show up.

It's early but with Montana losing at home to an average San Francisco team and Weber State having not won a game yet. Anyone could win the Big Sky. Could very well be the two bad football teams: UNC vs UND.

Has UND ever beat a ranked team? I know last year was a lil different but Jones teams seem to struggle on the road. Seems to be getting better though.

So is UND underrated or NDSU overrated?

You really would think their #2 sport would be better.... Walking out of the Betty I heard....#buttfootball

Do you lose a lot of bets? Is that why you cheer for the farm school?
