    You can't work directly with everybody. History is most important, including history that you don't directly witness. Chaves wins with history. Potential only takes you so far.

    Can't witness everybody but if you like your known commodity candidate - make a move.   The grass isn't always greener - see Bunning.

    How long have you known Chaves?  Buds that go way back.......or just going off a resume and 1 interview? Right, thought so.

    Should I apologize cause I said some good things about a person I have know since '93?  I don't think that makes things cloudy, actually makes things perfectly clear on who 1 person is while not having that luxury with the others.

    There is a known commodity verses some resumes and interviews and some awards that are really based on the coaching success at your school.  I could see Chaves, Mannausau, or Porter in the position and I think it's a 3 man race.  Their successes or failures will be known in the coming years.

    We just look at this differently based on our backgrounds.  I don't need my judgment questioned by you - that's for sure.

    I preach the same as Gundy stated above when doing hiring in my company.  I put a lot more stock into previous experience with a person and seeing them work.  Thousands of hours of working with someone or witnessing their work play out are much better predictors than a 1-3 hour interview.  It's easy to fool someone for an hour but you can't do that over time. 

    It's just as telling if you don't like about your experience with a person.

    I'm a Mike guy based on limited personal interactions but more so based on watching how he goes about his business and how successful he has been while doing it.

    I'd like to see Mike get the position. I told someone this weekend, I'd like to see football take the next step and get more funding. If possible.

    Rob Bollinger was the right choice last time and Mike is the right choice this time.

    Can somebody post what UND360 Tweeted.....I don't have Twitter nor do I want to.    Losing Okpoko really sucks, I think if we landed him that may have made people feel better overall about the class.  As for the less hype this year I think it is because of the early signing period and time of the year.  I was so busy today I kind of forgot what day it was and didn't even check in until now.   I haven't seen the film on Maag so not sure if he is a stud or not.  Would be nice to get a stud at WR....as in the type of guy that Montana or EWU would have recruited.  However NDSU has shown you can still be successful without elite WR's.  Hoping Rain and these new hogs will help us plow the way when we get into the MVFC.

    Can’t ask them to ball out all game and all of a sudden rely on their non existent fundamentals to close a game out.

    I was definitely screaming at the TV for some discipline and fundamental concepts at that time.  Same with the nonexistent running of a set for breaking the press other than everyone try to beat it one on one.   Foolish me.

  6. we were up 8 with about 4 minutes left.  Ran shot clock down, missed three, got offensive rebound and jacked a 3 within a few seconds and missed.  

    Gonzaga hit a 3 and within about 5 seconds after that changed the rhythm of the game.  up to that point we were milking clock and shooting late in shot clock.  Really undisciplined on the quick 3.

    If that's what it takes to get the offensive line back to the standard it needs to be at, so be it. 

     

    Anyone know what happened to CAS (the Bison fan who used to haunt here)? We didn't always agree, but we agreed that offensive line play was the most reliable indicator of how well a team was going to perform. 

    It appears he's still around and working.  Not sure why he gave up tormenting us from time to time.

    I hope I wasn't the only UND fan cheering for JMU. They are the ONLY thing potentially stopping the Plundering Turd from winning it all again.

    I can assure you - you weren't. There was at least one more.

    Looks like a pretty solid punting prospect. Always love to see the kickers and punters show athleticism. Those types are more reliable under pressure. 

    I agree with Greg Coleman that punters and kickers are the best athletes on the team. ;)

    Players won’t play as hard for someone they don’t trust. Think about how Bubba suspended Mercer for the final game of his life without an arrest or charges. He’s a huge reason Bubba and co looked so good last year and made the playoffs. And that’s how you send him off? With a suspension? 

    It is hard for me to judge Bubba or Mercer since we don't know what he was suspended for.  There are a lot of things that can get a player suspended besides arrests and charges.  SU just kicked 3 players off the team and there are no arrests there.

    As opposed to the UND students currently putting a nice black mark on our school?

    60 pounds of pot, a weapon, and almost $70,000 in cash...but that's only the SECOND-biggest story on the Heralddotcom  this morning because some Bison scrubs were booted off the team?

    In the past Miller (or someone) said that the ranking of stories on the Herald website was due to release or update time.  The newest on top.

    That was in response to someone complaining that the NDSU sports storees were always on top of the UND stories.   He said they were trying to fix it but I don't know if that has changed.
