  1. It is so funny to stop by here and see you guys crying about discipline at NDSU when you ought to be focused on why UND is one of the worst programs in FCS. UND's color surely is green...........green with envy. And today I get to watch another Bison game that is available Nationally. Oh....by the way.....our game was a pick on College Gameday!

    This makes me laugh.

  2. For what it's worth, I have read contracts for FBS coaches, and generally speaking the buyout isn't due in one lump sum. Rather, the terminated coach would continue to receive his monthly salary, but the salary of his next job would be deducted every month from the buyout. In other words, if Muss receives roughly $10,000 per month now, and his next job paid him say $5,000 per month, UND is only on the hook for $5,000 per month until probably June of 2015. It's still a fair amount, but it's also extended over time and relatively painless all things considered.

    Easily made up for in potential lost attendance is what your saying

  3. qb play does not equal the hype coming into season or ability of receiving core.

    "best recruit in 20 yrs?", "best receiving core in fcs?"

    83 total passing yards, maybe I just expected more out of the one category that was to be the automatic shining light for und

    I think to be fair to the qb and wrs one has to look at o-line play and play calling. Not saying it has been great but those things didn't help.

  4. I totally agree with you and BY NO MEANS am I trying to relate them to us. They are miles ahead of us at this point. I was just trying to point out that with a good recruiting class (or two) things can change significantly and really set you up for the future. Unfortunately, I too am skeptical that this will ever happen with the current coaching staff.

    I'm still not convinced its a lack of talent. Again, we are not a team that will win the Big Sky but on talent alone we are not 30 points worse than Montana and Montana St.

  5. Don't forget that a few years ago they were calling for Bohl's head in Fargo......then came this current recruiting class......and the rest is history. It would appear to me that recruiting is what's falling behind in the past few years, and unfortunately it doesn't get any easier when you're losing!

    Also, what has Idalski done?? He has had amazing talent and yet failed to ever advance with a championship. How many olympians does it take to win a title? He is better than what they had before by leaps and bounds, but in my opinion hasn't proven to be a top notch hire yet. People call for Hakstol's head when they don't win titles, why not Idalski? They recruit to the same facility and actually compete against far fewer high level teams throughout the year. Just find the double standard interesting.

    I'll go back to a point I made earlier. You are not going to win if you are playing true freshmen, RS freshmen and sophmores. Yes, you need them to step up but in FUs case, when the group you are mentioning was underclassmen they still had the play you would expect from juniors and seniors. If they would have taken all those kids as freshmen and had them getting the most reps, I do not think they would have made the playoffs following 3-8.

    I have not seen our JR and SR classes play like JR and SRs this year. And I don't think you can compare the two situations because of that. We are not getting the same level of play from those classes FU got following 3-8.
