I I also wish that we could have done something sooner but getting the right coach is more important.

All we heard earlier was that Faison killed this class by waiting too long to name a coach.

Maybe, just maybe Rau was smarting off when they were one person apart in the line. Rau wouldn't have had to wait until they were touching each other to say something. Hakstol did say that Rau was smarting off in the line but wouldn't elaborate. He also said it didn't excuse what Blood did but that it also violated the sanctity of the handshake line.

Some will take it farther. Rumor is after Kleinsasser called Rocky to tell him that had verbaled to UND, Rocky called Wyoming and talked him up, hoping they would offer and Jimmy would take a full ride over his commitment to UND.

Hak did reference them running their mouths during handshake line when addressing the Blood incident. He agreed that the line is supposed to be sacred regarding fighting but said it is also supposed to be sacred regarding mouthing off. He wouldn't elaborate beyond that.

I am not sure how many 18 year olds know or have heard about Hedberg who played one year in the NFL in 1977. I would guess most of them have watched or definitely heard about Bollinger.

I am disppointed to see that Sparks is leaving. He ran well when he got a few carries at the end of the year.

They got permission because they give a ton of money to the Semilole tribe in Florida. I know they only had to get approval from the closest tribe but about 90% of Seminoles live in Oklahoma.

Everyone step back from the ledge. They were exhibition games.

Dale is a great football guy and a very quality person. We aren't great friends but I played with him at UND and have followed the program closely since I was 13 years old. Based on my observations and that of guys that played for him and coached with him, I would have welcomed him back as the head coach and was hoping Faison would seek him out this time. Things haven't gone as well as he had hoped at SIU and I don't know the reason for that. He has lost a ton of close games over the years for some reason.

I talked to the Farmington PK and his dad at the spring game last year. I have a relative teaching in Farmington so his letter jacket caught my eye. Seemed like a real good kid.

Bring back Gunther. His teams could really play defense.

McFeely is reporting he has heard it.

They have it on undsports.com

I am still in town for Christmas so I went to the press conference. I loved Bubba's emotion as well as his words. Love the hire.

Sorry I wasn't more clear. For those of you that need everything spelled out for you (AC grads or flunkies) he was talking about football.

Merry Christmas.

I don't think Bubba had any control over that.

Just got an email from Faison as a "football stakeholder" announcing Bubba. Good luck Bubba.

One possibility is that if he decided on Bubba he would want him in town for the announcement.

I know UND has been working hard over the past number of years to establish some kind of connection with Minnetonka. Hopefully this is a start.

I was hoping for Bubba.

I was impressed with Josh the few times I met him. Good luck to him with his new job.

Exactly.

I would guess if he was working on somebody else in the last 5 days he wouldn't tell you and unless he was successful you would never know about it. Has the school ever announced there are two finalists. I haven't seen it anywhere official, only on message boards.
