They need to stop the fight down in Brookings.
They scored 90.... by halftime.
I think they could pull 5 students from the crowd to play the 2nd half and win by 30...
They will run the table in the Summit.
Their game against Nevada and the Son of Musselman will be a fun one.
130 points with 3:30 left

In all seriousness, SU should send him on his way, he just took another job. I heard Bohl and Klieman had to be physically seperated in the locker room, I think in Frisco, when Bohl was hired at WY but stayed on.
Recruiting and signing date......awkward!!
I know that the Bohl and SU split was not friendly and he is still bitter at the school.

No doubt winning influences the media and other voters for all-conference honors. It’s sort of a catch 22. Have a winning season, get all-conference selections. Have all-conference selections, get winning seasons. I guess we all would like more of both: winning seasons and all-conference performers. Remember individual stats also play big role, which can be real good despite not many wins.
Lastly, as Mike Ditka said, “players win the games, but coaches can lose them.” (Random bit on how good players can still end up on losing teams that are misdirected).
Can substitute 'high end recruits' for 'all-conference performers' too. Need to figure out how to win enough to be more attractive to the kids we are recruiting.
That's why 3-8 two years ago killed us.

We had one of the most predictable offenses in the Big Sky (and as an independent), and at the same time was one with very little in game adjustments - let alone changes for the next week. We had to be easy to scout, other teams knew what we were doing. We put ourselves in a position where player talent wasn't fully utilized for a good team effort. Third quarter play kept us out of the playoffs and possibly from a bye this last weekend.
good example was the toss play we ran. By the end of the season other teams would crash the cb when they saw the pitch, we couldn't get the fb out there to chip him and the play went nowhere. Happened numerous times in the NAU game. The one time we did get a piece of the cb we had a good gain. I don't care if you have to change alignment or put the fb in motion to get him out there earlier - something needed to change. Even if they knew what was coming it would have had a better chance of being successful if we had players in the right position.

With the possibility of missing the tourney for the second year in a row it isn't too hard to look at our roster and see where the dead wood is. This isn't so much a "figure it out" problem" as a "do what needs to be done" problem. I seem to remember Blais cleaning house on occasion. We are a top tier hockey program, not some friendly beer league. You should need to produce to stay here.
Coaches in all sports are reluctant to do this because it could hurt future recruiting.

Love Wanzek and Maag but then we have a poor mans version of them about 4 times over on our roster. How does that help us win? How will that make opposing DCs stay up at night? We need more guys who can really run and are quick and can catch that are preferably around 6’.
my point was that if we had used Izzy, McKinney and Santiago (slot) for the speed guys plus Wanzek and Maag we would have been pretty good at wr this year.

This is my major concern about Freund. Obviously a great guy and the kids love him, but, if he is such a great recruiter and coach why does our wr group look like a church basketball league team?
Wanzek catches everything and is a stud and Maag might be too. Have a couple of speed guys in Adeoti and McKinney but need to figure out how to get them the ball in space. Santiago in the slot would have changed the complexion too. More of a usage thing in my eyes vs talent level.
ran into McKinney's dad in Flagstaff and he told me Cam runs a 4.34. Not sure how accurate that is if true it should be fast enough.

i think a lot of people are missing the fact that a lot of the punt rushers are 100% not blocked/ignored/free run at punter....literally a jailbreak!
not arguing with that. I just noticed that the punter sped up his delivery. It was obvious at NAU

Change punt formation. Quit mind boinking the players, block everyone then tackle the guy with the ball, simple. Our punter needs to speed up, too.
the snap still seemed to be getting back a little slow at the end of the year but the punter definitely sped up his delivery in the last couple of games.

I'm not sure what you see in Bubba that no one else does - He's the one who made the decision to stand pat last year. He couldn't even take care of the blocked punt situation. And unless you are in some alternate dimension, you sure as heck didn't see him out-coach anyone in a game situation this year.
Bubba is the kind of guy I want running my program. He is passionate about UND fb and UND in general. He is genuine and not an artificial hype machine - (see PJ Fleck).
I played for a lot of different guys and different personalities in HS and college. Coaches like Bubba got the best out of me long term. His approach reminds me of the way Dale Lennon and Rob Bollinger did things. Maybe he will prove to be over-matched in the long term but I am not ready to make that assessment now and wouldn't make a change at head coach. I do agree with the changes that were made today.

You might be correct, but I think signaling to the team we were willing to try would have provided a spark. Put in Boltman, at least I have heard he is a actual threat to run.
In middle of 3rd qtr Boltman put his helmet on when we were about to receive punt and I thought he might go in. Nope unfortunately

If this comment is directed at me i will admit I had zero confidence in our offense getting more than ten yards there. I had more faith in our punter getting off a better punt and pinning them inside the 10, which he didn’t do either.
Agree. We were 3rd and 2 and I believe we got stuffed on that play. Pinning them deep with a punt is a reasonable play there. It didn’t work out so it turned out to be a bad idea. Going for it was reasonable too but not a slam dunk.
In hindsight it is clear but wasn’t 100% at the time.

I still support Bubba as HC. I think we need to make some changes but he wouldn't be one of them.

I’ve never seen a team talk more than NAU. They were all over Maag talkin all sorts of !@#$ and he just jogged by with a smile on his face. I hope they get Maaged later and he doesn’t even give them the time of day.
They chirp after every play. At end were in Ketts face when he tried to get play from bench. Ref pushed the guy away. 99 I believe

What happened to Harris?

Wanzek can play

Can’t block anybody

Cool sounds like a few of you will be going. I'm planning on getting up there around 12:30 to have a few beers in the tailgating area before the game. Not sure what the tailgating situation is up there.
I have talked to NAU a few times in the past and again just today. They claim we can't get parking in the tailgate area. A few years ago the guy told me that Montana ruined it for other fans by bringing so many people that they took over the tailgate area. Sounds like an NAU problem, not a Montana issue.
Have others tailgated there? would be good to know the story.

Last home game of the year. I'll be making the 4 hour drive for it, although I expect a frustrating game.
5 hour drive for us. I expect the same frustrating game.

Their recruiting success over us started back when we were DII and we haven't been able to overcome it
