The wheels are off the wagon.

Coaching doesn’t matter. It’s all about recruiting…;)
See Indiana….

2017 and 2021 were both horrific road blocks to success and yet the constant in all of that (the head coach) is still here holding UND football back from competing with the top MVFC schools …
NO question. We will never have the talent to be a perennial semi finalist with Bubba as skipper. That level of talent does not exist in FCS football.

Fall ‘21 was a disaster. Should’ve been changes at that time, but really, large-scale changes after ‘17 and ‘18 would’ve been ideal, but instead fired Rudolph and hired Freund, and well, the defense remained mediocre to below average and the rest is history.
Bubba should have been replaced after '21. That season was the most frustrating I have had as a fan. The staff just plain blew it in several games. Again, IMO, the program never recovered.

I disagree. The fall of 2019, spring '21 and fall '21 season had the pieces, IMO, to make UND into a perennial top 5 FCS program. An argument can be made they were missing a QB, but terrible coaching decisions/lack of prep sunk the team during those years... IMO we were close. Now we are not. In '21, two of the final 4 teams were SDSU and eventual champion NDSU.

Bubba contract has been extended twice after his contract should have been ended. The team and program has been on a downward trend since the fateful day in the Alerus when he gave the Bison game away. I love Bubba, the man and the mentor, but the head football coach will never deliver more than an above average season and UND has the facilities and support to be a top 10 FCS school year in and year out, especially in the new, watered-down version of FCS football.

If bubba loses both South Dakota games at home , he is finished. This is ridiculous.

So if Bubba loses 3 more, how many guys leave via the portal? My guess is a lot.
Everyone you don’t want to leave…

Disagree. UND is a top 10 FCS program now based on facilities. If there is competent leadership, that can institute a winning, accountable culture, I think the turnaround would be quite quick. Remember, the transfer portal can quicken this also.
All that is missing is a top 10 staff.

Odds of that are zilch
Only 3 games left now
And then we get to look forward to 5-7 wins next season.

With the right coach his team has 2 losses maximum.

Exhausting. We could call the ‘25 season too…between 5 and 7 wins.

This is such a hard team to follow. Same !@#$ every year. We have an average coach at a program which should be elite. Hence the 5-7 wins every year.
