Have you looked back at recent posts after a loss...I am far from being the first to respond. I can direct you to those posts to help you out.

I was at the Fargo Scheels store looking at the Fighting Hawks stuff, and noticed more and more with the new logo including little lego sets with a zamboni, and what looks like a press conference stage with a head coach. I did buy a Fighting Hawks football shirt with the logo on the helmet. Not too much of a UND section considering its in the middle of Bison territory.

But to call out someone saying you want them to lose intentionally just to post on a Fire thread is absurd. I don't like Jones, there are lots who dislike them, but would someone actually cheer for the other team just to despise Jones? I have not or would not do that. If somehow this team racked up 15 wins in a row, crushed opponents in the tournament and made the dance, I would be more than happy, hell I would give Jones a lot of credit of turning this team around. But if we go .500 overall, limp into the CIT and lose in the first round, of course I am going to voice my displeasure like others have. But my loyalty will always be for UND, and I voice what I think is for the good of the school, just like I thought removing Mussman was for the good of football program, I see how that turned out.

He was wrong in thinking I want this team to lose just so I can post on this thread. I never ever want a UND team to lose, even when Muss was coaching I didn't attend a game or watch a game cheering for the other team. A true fan doesn't do that.

Just stop. You sound really stupid. I never want us to lose. You just can't stand it that Jones' sh*tshow is about to end. Are you still wishing Muss was coaching the football team?

Are you going to whack a guy who has ZERO post season wins, lose to a transitioning DI team at home twice, have no conference titles, 4 winning seasons (3 of those in the Great West Conference), no wins against ranked teams, has won 4 games on the road against non-conference opponents (not including tournaments), and has a record of 130-174. Absolutely!!

How did UND win recruiting battles in other sports, conference titles, even National titles with Fargo being twice the size of GF, south of GF, and those sports not being #1 at UND? Answer...Gene Roebuck, Rich Glas, Roger Thomas, Dale Lennon. Its not the size of the city, its the coach on the court; he recruits the talent, he gets them in shape, he calls the plays. Funny how Gene de-throned Amy Ruley to win 3 straight National titles, funny how Rich Glas won 2 conference titles over NDSU, Roger Thomas beat NDSU at their #1 sport and recruited the 2001 National Title team. Dale Lennon coached that 2001 National Title team, and the 2003 Runner up team while the Bison watched the game on tv. The right coach makes all the difference.

Seems like that school in Fargo has had no problems with instate talent, in the frozen tundra, and beating teams in the dance. Walthall I am sure will have no problem exceeding expectations as all he needs to do is go a couple games over .500 and he would have Jones beat.

He has a pretty good resume.
