Nothing has changed at all since 1978.

I can only think of one instance that a head coach was let go due to lack of performance and a coach on that staff was retained as the head coach…….and she just resigned as our WBB coach.

I think either way with Josie or without I’m reaching out to get the temp on Kinnebrew from UMary and the center from Kindred at Moorhead. Both local talents that are all conference and can play at this level. I really don’t think a rebuild to at least be more competitive than last year is a long term thing. Our fundamentals have been such a problem for the last 3 years and seem the easiest to improve.

Buyout is too far down the road. Need to step up and increase NIL funding to give any new hire a chance.

Is he saying we didn’t have that this year???

I sure it matters if it was before or after. One gives you a chance at retaining a few….one doesn’t.

I think Tieken would have been a better fit in this 4-2 scheme than the 3-4

Way too young. Agree prayers for Eric and his family.

Along I94 so has to be on the east end. Land purchased and bought by the tribe. North Dakota state legislators can’t get out of their own way again.

Casino and Convention Center going up in Moorhead…..can’t make this up. Dan, should the tribe be transparent in this case where the money is coming from??

So impressive what the T&F team has been doing. I have to believe the indoor facility is paying huge dividends for them

Great post and 100% true. It’s their built in excuse.

Is the spot you are referring to paid in advance? I don’t have a tailgate spot so the only reason I ask is out of curiosity.

Further separation between haves and have nots coming….. https://www.espn.com/college-sports/story/_/id/43443976/dept-education-says-title-ix-applies-payments-athletes

According to the time stamp of the tweets it was 6 minutes

They were still great FCS QBs that we would have drooled to have at UND.

I’m sure one of the NDSU regulars can/will correct me but I believe I heard NDSU started the year with north of 25 seniors on the roster and 20+ on their two deep. Belief in coming back to win a championship and NIL was key to that. Guessing SDSUs roster looked similar. UND mean while had 3 OL starters and an all conference DL and QB leave and go be contributors elsewhere.

Vigen has a familiar look on the sideline right now

Do you know who else applied?

Generally I would look for examples of this working in the past but we are entering a new age of college athletics. Recruiting coordinators and roster managers are going to be as/maybe more important than coordinators. Head coaches aren’t going to be able to manage rosters and coach. This is a time and a different approach may be welcomed. Eventually promote one of your young defensive positions coaches to coordinator when ready.

While I don’t excuse him for leaving even with your last paragraph…..I think with the current state of college football if you have the opportunity to add talent you do it. It’s up to the kid to earn the respect back of his teammates. The look of a team from coaching staff to players will change so much from year to year now so holding a grudge isn’t worth it. People leave jobs and come back all the time.

3 1/2 week layoff hurt the Ducks. Timeline of the playoff needs to be reevaluated.

They call that targeting all regular season….and conference championship games. Just adds further murkiness to an already very judgement based call.

I didn’t see any crying from them when Danny grabbed a starting RT for them from UND on his way out the door.

I’ve seen Dan Jackson who was at Idaho St mentioned but media in Sioux Falls wouldn’t confirm. Is that what you are seeing?
