Any chance Jerry is unwilling to go in as he is transferring? Seems like then you would put in the next guy.. I’m trying to dream up reasons for the unwillingness to put in the backup QB in obvious situations.

The announcers were very suprised when the Redbirds went for it on 4th and 3.. all of the math says u should have punted.. or.. u are playing the und defense .. embarrassing

If the defense wasn’t a gaping infected wound.. everyone would be talking about our poor qb play..

Agree 100%.. but that also isn’t the argument

Agreed.. mediocre at best.. would be interesting to go back over every game and and decide if u would take their QB or ours.. I think the majority of the time it’s theirs.. seems like a good kid.. nice story.. but should be playing D2 football somewhere.. although I doubt he beats out the msum kid.

Thanks.. more confirmation that bubbas defense has sucked pretty much every year.. with a couple mediocre years

That’s my entire point.. if fruechte wanted Jerry.. Jerry would be playing.. a few years back we ran multiple QBs.. we all want to see Jerry.. coaches see them every day

What are all your headings on the columns?

I would like to really know who picks the starting QB.. my assumption is fruechte.. Lots of stuff to blame bubba for but I assume this is not one of them. i really hope we get to see Jerry in the 2nd half.. my expectation is there is no chance that will happen.. but again my assumption it is freuchte not bubba making that call

Romfo needs to run more on the rpo.. helps keep the defense honest

We need some of siedels attitude on defense.. that guy plays with some passion

Team has some promise this year.. some really interesting stretches followed by some really questionable stuff

Free throws aren’t free

Yah.. nice 3 followed by really bad clock management

King is tough on D

Big shot

A lot of turnovers

Some of the comments are over the top.. Bubba doesnt seem like a greedy person.. incompetent maybe.. over his head in FCS sure... Chaves is the idiot who gave him this contract extension.

Firing Joel and keeping bubba would be a UND football kind of thing to do.. putting a bandaid on an amputated limb. Firing Rudy and expecting better from the offense was reasonable as Bubba doesnt seem all that involved over on that side of the ball regardless of the conspiracy theories... Firing your 3rd DC and expecting your defense to get better while keeping the mastermind of this crap defense is the definition of insanity. The defense has had solid games here and there.. but its been terrible season by season for a long time.

Q is a dude.. he found a role on the team and crushed it.. short yardage.. 3rd or 4th and less than 2. I absolutely loved seeing him trot out there and take the other teams soul. That TD catch last week was a highlight.

I thought the 360 guys were on point this week.. all were clearly frustrated with the direction of the program.. Kelly was super vocal about it. I’m looking forward to their year end wrap up

While there are some people that want Jerry/Feeny to start… most people have said the coaches see them every day and are picking the person they think gives them the best chance what I and many others are arguing for and pointing out.. is the complete lack of time for what everyone thinks is a good future starter. Whether you believe romfo is better or not.. you have to be completely annoyed with the lack of development time for Jerry and others.. pretty much every other team we have played this year gets their backup qb in for meaningful snaps.. for some reason that is beyond the comprehension of our coaching staff.. I don’t know if it’s a fruecte call or bubba.. but it was the same under Danny.. so the common theme is bubba so I lean towards bubba with no real knowledge. I find the lack of development for our backup qbs very odd.. it’s like they want them to leave.

I like the idea.. zero expectations of something like this happening based on unwillingness to do this even during obvious situations throughout the year..

I believe the red flags u mentioned all happened before the extension. the assistant coaches left in Dec/jan.. I think most of the portal guys left earlier.. bubba was extended in March..

This discussion is bordering on rediculous.. remember.. the additional two year extension was after…. 1) another terrible defensive performance leading to a loss of a home playoff game. 2) arguably your best two coaches leaving for lateral moves at best 3) a home town kid/und football player/und football family stopping through town for 5 mins on his way to a lateral position at your instate rival.. seems like any of those three above situations would be a.. hey let’s pump the brakes on an extension and see how this year works out. I mean he still had two years on his contract.. it wasn’t like they were going to throw him out in the street.. and agree 100% with und08.. ndsu ran entz out of town after he had a season we can only dream about.. the difference in expectations is substantial.. I’m old enough to remember when we were relevant and I miss it.
