    Bubba brings energy?  I like and respect Bubba but he always looks like he's in pain when the camera pans to him on the sideline.  I know there are quiet leaders, but I want to see a coach chest bumping his kids after a good play...talking junk to a ref in defense of his players; young kids love that stuff. When you see a coach dancing the locker room or leading the cheers after a big win, that's connecting with the players.  Bubba is always buttoned down and stoic.  Let your hair down sometimes, Bubba.

    You obviously haven't seen Bubba lead the team in "Stand up and cheer" in the locker room after a W. I saw him talk lots to refs yesterday and you'd look like you were in pain if you were  the coach of a team that's playing guys who SHOULD NOT YET be playing college football games!

  2. Zim made throws I haven't seen Studs make and he did it with a guy in his face.

    Bill Walsh could have been the OC in the first half and with H at QB they would have been shutout.  I don't like a lot of Rudy's calls, but that first half is not on him. Bubba decides who starts at QB. It's why he's the head coach.

    He is not a college QB, I think that is evident in his two games this season.  Lets get him to a different position and see if he can be a college football player at another position.

    Like Jake Hanson, QB from Grafton. Athletes from ND (and elsewhere) should be brought in to play football not just a position.

    Tell me again how this opportunity is getting the shaft? All I see are excuses from your last two posts. He should move to TE or LB and contribute. Or quit, since his career is ruined apparently. 

    And I don't see how he got shafted. He's getting a FAR greater shot than his skill set deserves. Nothing negative about that.

    If that happens I'm going to start a "Fire" thread, because that would be ridiculous to start Hiedlebaugh over Z again, although it happened once and it shouldn't have. 

    I might do it IF H even plays QB again.

    Does anyone else want this season to end quick and painless instead of hearing about new injuries every week.

    Now that I have no expectations (I suppose that makes me a quitter or something) I am really enjoying watching some of the young guys play and hoping on this team's future regardless of the other conspiracies that may be out there. 

    One thing, I don't believe Ty Carter is good, but on his worst day, he seems better than Blubaugh. Not dumping on Blubaugh but he isn't ready yet he's getting more reps than Carter.

    when wheels fall off like this,  its more than Xs, Os, and injuries.

    The wheels fell off Reyes, Harris, Rodgers, etc. THAT"s why the team is in this spot.

    Absolutely. Winning can mask anything. We'll be better next year and going forward because of this struggle.

    The wisest thing I've read on this board in a while.

    Getting blown out multiple times by fellow Big Sky Conference teams destroys the culture.

    See 2013.

    This season will have a negative trickle-down effect.

    I don't deny that, but this business about the team divided and the culture is shot is speculation.

    Put it this way, IF the injuries to the best players didn't occur AND the season went as predicted and we were contending for a BS title, there would be no BS about the culture.

    Its pre-determined by the coach. Not sarcasm.

    EVERY time when it looks like there's room to right? I get it that the blocks may be there, but mix it up dude.

    Well, between people on here trying to revoke my professional degree and give me behavioral health advice, I'd say this performance from UND football tops everything off fittingly. 

    UND football has major issues going on right now and it goes beyond the injuries. The culture went from good to broken in less than 12 months. 

    NO way you can assert that without the injuries. All this other stuff would be out of the picture if 11-15 starters/game weren't out.

    I don't understand how it takes two years to understand this offense.  The announcers have called it "very basic" and even used the term "elementary."

    How long does it take to hand off, pitch or jump back from the line of scrimmage to shout things out and then hand off or pitch.
