    Does Schmidt protect the UNd grads like schenzfire and dosch

    I would think he will need to evaluate who he might keep. If he were moving from D2 or different FCS program he may bring guys from his present staff. Tougher to get FBS coordinators to drop down cuz of less $.  
    I would consider Freuchte as OC cuz of relationships with players and it can help with the transition. He would be able to advise regarding position coaches who players respect and which coaches may be great recruiters. 
    I would guess he will have a lot of new guys.

    I saw football coaches and Bubba sitting together at the men’s basketball game Saturday night. Must mean something. How bout that for intel!

    :)

    It means they have each other’s backs and are waiting to see how the coaching choice affects them and their families.

    How is it that we all collectively have Jack S#*t for intel - this is just unreal that nobody knows anything.

     

    Ron Mexico taking bets it’s Scmidt - gotta be.

    I think it depends on the source. If you get info from a reliable inside source, you let them share it if they wish. Most of them will share only with trusted contacts and allow the University the privilege of informing players first, then the public.

    Speculation or what you have heard?  
     

    Outside of this years meltdown what part is the dumpster fire?  Facilities, conference, NIL?

    perhaps some of the administration but stepping back does Bubba now having a voice in the department help that? 

    I wouldn’t go down that rabbit hole with anyone.  Bubba is a non issue except for those who can’t let it go.  
    The fact is an FCS HC is a great stepping stone if you get the program turned around. The University, the campus and the new facilities are outstanding. If you are successful in the MVFC you can move up. UND admin is supportive.

    You didn’t hear him say that. It’s a great opportunity for him to get that elusive HC block checked on his résumé’ at an FCS school positioned for success.

    Young. High energy. Can relate to young athletes. Former professional athlete so knows what it takes to be successful and play at the highest level. Can recruit. Can motivate young men. Did well with not much this year (QB situation was on Bubba). Well liked by everyone. 
     

    He’s a star in the making imo. The exact type of HC I’d want to play for. All of that is going to help us get the type of recruits that the other Dakotas get. Just my thoughts 

    QB situation was Danny, then Freuchte and Bubba.  Danny then  Freuchte obviously didn’t see what some here have read about the other QB’s. I still can’t understand how we didn’t develop Feeney in the time he was here and that is more our OC’s.
    Did you compare the incoming QB recruit with the NDSU recruit?   There is a big difference. 
    I agree that he has all the makings of a star in the making for reasons you cited.

    How much did Bubba micromanage the offense?

    I don’t believe he did. Didn’t seem to be calling the plays. Mostly involved in decisions about going for it on 3rd or 4th down, fake punt, onside kicks etc. May suggest or veto a call but if you watch him on sidelines it didn’t look like he was calling plays.

    I’m just confused about the Fruechte love. A year ago he was just an OC for Winona State. Comes here, does fine. Most fans are annoyed with the QB situation. Seems to be well liked by the players. I met him once and he was nice. But what has he done in that time where he is who we want as our next guy? Was the Adam Theilen tweet what pushed everyone over the edge? Theilen going to come be his OC?

    Adam Thielen is still in the NFL.

    With only three applicants (two that meet the criteria), what’s taking Chavez so long? Just flip a coin. Big thanks though to Schmidt & Tibesar for applying. How embarrassing that would have been if nobody applied!

    I’m good with either! Go Hawks!

    I believe it would be a mistake to think there were only 3 applicants. Did you learn that from this board?  
    Unless you personally heard that from Chaves, Armacost or a selection committee member I wouldn’t believe it.

    Is Schmidt clearly a better candidate than Roehl, and if so why?  

    Yes and so are Tibesar and Caruso (if he applied). The book on all of them has “more chapters”. He has nothing on Schmidt or Tibesar.

    Resume isn’t the best imo

    Then you haven’t reviewed it.

    All-American whose teams won 3 Conference titles, 3 playoff berths and a national championship. He has coached at the D2, FCS, and FBS levels including Big 10 and PAC 12. Has been a DC at multiple levels. He has coached in the NFL and CFL.  Extremely bright and an excellent recruiter. 
     

    Schmidt’s  resume and reputation is also impressive. They are both excellent candidates. Hopefully they interviewed well. If there is another candidate who has similar qualities and experience and convinced the decision makers he is the best choice to lead UND back to a National Championship that’s who they should hire.

    Will a 4-2-5 work in the MVFC?

    It can. So can a 4-3, a 3-4 and a 3-3-5 depending on the opponent and down and distance. None of them will work if you don’t have the talent to plug in to those spots though.

    Chaves historically hires D2 head coach, going back to Beau Baldwin at EWU and most recently Paul Sather at UND. 
    I’d guess it will be a Midwest D2 coach or the lazy (and risky) move of Fruechte being promoted. 

    Hoffner beat Bolte today, maybe Hoffner?

    From the very beginning (see my earlier posts), Schmidt has been the favorite. Too much fraternity support and now fundraising. It’s basically a hiring similar to Bubba - UND ties and is familiar to alumni. Justification used is it is “DeBoer’s guy” , although he’s not working for him anymore and cut ties … UND going with Schmidt could work, but could be mediocrity like with Bubba. We will see. 

    Schmidt hasn’t cut ties to DeBoer. They still communicate and DeBoer said he is welcome to join him in Alabama. 
    If FB Alumni were organized and “now fundraising “ I would know. That isn’t to say there aren’t FB alumni pushing for him to get the job, but probably just as many pushing for Tibesar.
