Unless you are player transferring down to get more playing time now is not the time to transfer unless you have guaranteed under the table offers. Too many unknowns for guys to just take a chance. Some were lucky to get any higher conference offer and some never did. This FBS roster reduction is going to have huge impacts.
In 2023 only about 45% of fb players who entered the portal found new teams. It’ll be worse this year.

Neuberger was so solid he mostly went unnoticed and that's a good thing. It is great to get him back.

I like this but I guess it rules out Luke from coming back.

I more so ask because I don’t know how to get around the paywall…
The article doesn't give any names. Says doing interviews Wed and Thurs for key positions.
Have to go thru university hiring process and expect to have 8 of 10 positions finalized in the next 5-6 days.

- There are a ton of complexities now with recruiting, as you can consider high school student-athletes, JUCO, and portal transfers. A lot goes into who to offer, when to offer, how to offer, and how to coordinate and execute the official visits in an efficient manner. The programs that do this the best have a leg up in recruiting. One of the ways to do it the best is to have a dedicated recruiting coordinator, not just a position coach that spends part-time coaching current players and part-time organizing recruiting.

Recruiting is the lifeblood of your program, so emphasizing all avenues for recruiting excellence is incredibly important.
I looked up the U of MN staff to see what they have for recruiting coordinators. I admit I was surprised by the number of people assigned to recruiting. There are 9 here plus a few others that may fall under the same umbrella.
- Director of Player Personnel - in his bio it calls him the recruiting coordinator.
- Director of Recruiting / Minnesota High School Liaison
- Director of Recruiting Operation
- Director of Recruiting Management
- Director of On-Campus Recruiting
- Assistant Director of Player Personnel
- Assistant Director of On-Campus Recruiting
- Assistant for Recruiting and Administration
-
Coordinator of Recruiting Operations

Need to find out what he does for assistants. I don’t know what to prefer but seems like he needs to turn over at least half so players know that things have changed not same old same old
In the interview with UNDfootball360 he talks about going thru the formality of the hiring rules. Sounded like it will take a week or two but is bringing in a number of new people.

Oh I would think that has already been decided. Not public knowledge yet. Some positions can be negotiated with the HC…who he wants to bring with and at what salary.
Yes, I would think the first two years will be “buildings years.” But I think the positive vibes will be enough to put more in the W column.Also, having Bubba, with his football knowledge and knowing first hand the needs of the program, in some admin/fundraising position will be a huge asset!!!
Good times coming!
I’m guessing you’re right and most have been decided. I’m curious to find out and wonder when we’ll know.

Hope someone asks about assistant or coordinator hires.
I wasn't able to listen to the entire things. Did this get asked?

Just looking at Schmitty’s demeanor, he not would not be just a coach to play for, but a coach to die for. Hopefully the staff he gets will land the recruits we need and develop them them into the players they can both win the Dakotas and win it all.
Granted this is based on one video and my general impression but it looks like UND went with completely different personality from Bubba. Fiery vs. more measured.
There is a general impression is that NFL teams go with the opposite approach from the coach they are moving on from. The last number of Vikings coaches really seem to follow that pattern.

I have the same thought of 'give me one more year of eligibility' every home game during the Hawk Walk when the team walks through the tailgating area with the band playing on both sides of them.
Then I quickly remember that I'm in my 60's and I grab another beer, something to eat, and relax.

The continuous improvement motto gives me flashbacks to my days working in manufacturing engineering. Was a consistent message for our company. It is interesting to see it applied to a fb team also but it makes sense.

Go on Trey's TwiX and watch his film from 2023 in limited action. There's throws on there that we didn't come close to seeing in 2024....and that's just fact.
Just went and watched it. No argument here. Some very impressive throws.

When do people think we’ll hear about the staff? Maybe some positions on Wednesday?

For assistants it's it a different story, which is what I was referring to
My earlier comments weren't directed at you. It's been stated a number of times on this board that we don't want a HC that isn't looking to move up in a few years. That isn't a bad plan but there are a lot of coaches who have been successful in their 'dream jobs' too.

Let’s pump the breaks on Nielson til he can actually maintain. He’s struggled to stack good seasons consecutively.
That is definitely true but we'd take his last 2 seasons.

Don’t look at the current staff then
I don't buy into the theory that not moving up is necessarily a bad thing. You don't have to look beyond Stig at SDSU (26 years) and Nielson (9) at USD to see coaches with longer tenures having big success at the FCS level.

Fired too much
Could be but I thought it was a big black mark if you stayed anywhere more than 5 years. Shows you lack ambition.

I like the Schmidt pick and he must have interviewed well.
Tibesar has very long list of experience too and I'm guessing was strongly considered. Years ago I asked one of his relatives about the possibility of him coming back but at that time his career and salary were beyond what UND could offer.
Since he left UND:
-
Kansas State (2006)
Special teams coordinator -
Kansas State (2007–2008)
Defensive coordinator & defensive backs coach -
Montreal Alouettes (2009–2010)
Linebackers coach -
Montreal Alouettes (2011)
Defensive coordinator & linebackers coach -
Purdue (2012)
Defensive coordinator & linebackers coach -
Chicago Bears (2013)
Linebackers coach -
Northwestern (2014)
Defensive consultant -
Wisconsin (2015–2016)
Outside linebackers coach -
Wisconsin (2017)
Defensive run game coordinator & outside linebackers coach -
Oregon State (2018–2021)
Defensive coordinator & outside linebackers coach -
Akron (2022–present)
Defensive coordinator & linebackers coach
-
Kansas State (2006)

I hope it's released soon cuz otherwise I'll be checking back here every time I wake up during the night.

Does Schmidt protect the UNd grads like schenzfire and dosch
Dosch isn't UND grad (Dickinson St) but has had multiple stints coaching at UND.

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.
I hit up my friend with an inside source and to see if he'd give a hint, even regarding timing. He said his guy is tight lipped and not sharing anything.

Nice to see so much interest and passion for UND football although it’s the same 8-10 of us commenting over and over.

2024 Non-UND FCS Thread
in Football
Posted
agree. Amazing there is that much difference between the top 3 or 4 and the rest of FCS.
Looks like Vegas had it right with the point spreads.
