From the Herald at that time. “Strength coach Nate Baukol will be the point person at Memorial Stadium until a new coach is hired.”

I wasn't debating any of the on field results. Just that he is a good man and a class act. I'm glad we agree on that. I have experienced a few things that he has done behind the scenes that really stand out and show what a good man he is.

Baseless other than NDSU puts up cash? You won't even agree that Bubba is a class act? Hoping that was just an oversight on your part.

Crookston

My belief - if we got the 3 yards on the 2 point conversion at Youngstown, Bubba is still coaching. They win and go into the next week with momentum and beat ISU blue. That alone would have gotten us to 7-5. Then it comes down to beating either USD or Illinois St for a very successful season. It is amazing what a difference one play can make.

I don't think he said in his press conference that anything was status quo. He just did a recap of the year and said he was going to evaluate everything including himself. He said what anybody would say if there was no decision made yet at that point.....regarding his status or the assistants.

My source has mentioned him (Schmidt) also.

If they do make a move does ND still have the hiring rules where they have to wait 2 weeks or more after officially posting? Also name all the applicants publicly? That has hurt us in the past.

Doesn’t sound like this is happening. Said they wouldn’t edit out the logo from throwback merch but that’s all that’s been decided.

Looked at old fb web page. Danny is listed as wr coach but nobody assigned as qb coach. Maybe he helped out there. I was just told he wasn’t very good at devl the QBs back then. Maybe they were confused or I misunderstood.

I heard less than flattering things about Danny's ability to coach/develop qb when Mollberg was here.

Bolded part very true.

I was as surprised as anyone when Romfo won the job but I doubt they care what Tom Miller thinks.

I could envision the message was that with a good education from UND you can be successful and in a financial position to give back some day. I’ve heard the message before that it’s the education that sets you up for success later in life.

He was much more impressive against better competition

Don’t doubt this but you’d think the administration would get ahead of things before the press conference today if a change was coming. not surprised though

Assuming we'll be on the hook for a playoff ticket next year too so this will just cover that.

I've heard good things about him but....... Wyoming is 2-9 this year with one game remaining against 8-3 Wash St and are 17 point dogs. Probably end 2-10

You are probably right on attendance dropping and it was a very disappointing year. That said, I won't be giving up my tickets. I have too much fun with tailgating and the excitement leading up to the game. Also, most of the home games are pretty good. Along with the fact that I'm getting older and there's no guarantee how many more trips around the sun I have left in me. I'm not going to waste them by avoiding one of my favorite things.

Different angle to it but in this case they had the program's best interest at heart and refused to report on what was going on.

It's wrong about the Fargo media. One of the main NDSU football Fargo media guys told me personally that they all knew about shady stuff going on regarding evading scholarship limits years ago and didn't report on it cuz they would have lost their access to the team.

Way, way back we got stickers for off, def and special teams players of the week, so very few were given out. They were pretty cool with Sioux logo on them but we weren't allowed to put them on our helmets.

I think next fall I'll ask someone to kick me in the groin every Saturday and I'll skip watching or traveling to the games. It'll save me a bunch of time and money and I'll feel the same way at the end of the day anyway.

I was gonna turn the game off but decided I deserve to see the end as a sort of punishment.

Simon has had some good games this season but doesn't have it today. 3 passes knocked down by DL, 8-18 and 87 yards passing when you need to get back into the game.
