  1. Interesting idea... Would explain why the postings are what they are.
  2. It is still used by some of the top teams in the FBS and more than a handful of NFL teams. What base defense you run doesn't really matter if you don't have the players to run it and/or they aren't fundamentally sound. UND hasn't been able to consistently get the athletes they need to run it.
  3. Given the 4-2-5 scheme, it is possible some of those players may have the ability to switch to safety, edge or even a heavy nickel. But you are right, 6 dedicated LB's is a big number.
  4. More or less, they picked up the phone and asked. Got a 2-1 deal. Win for everyone (minus Alabama if they get stuck here tonight....)
  5. Agreed that there are places for improvement (significantly in some spots), but I would be interested to see how guys look after a year in a new S&C program along with a new staff with new ideas. How much of it was X's and O's and how much is Jimmy and Joes? With a complete change in defensive scheme, there will definitely be a need to remake some parts of that side of the roster.
  6. I don't. But I don't believe they have interest in the SDSU transfer. Probably fair to say the new HC has a good idea on whether he would be a good fit or not.
  7. Not that it matters but to further distract from this conversation: I know that wasn't the case the first few years when the REA opened. I also know they worked on a few different versions of what was fair, maybe they tried at some point but I don't recall it.
  8. Improved on his #2 throw on UND's top-10 list. Not bad for a freshman.
  9. OC probably got some say on who he wanted to keep around to help with the offense. Kostich isn't a surprise, despite some opinions, he's a good ST coordinator and is well liked by players, parents and high school coaches, plus has a ton of connections. Adding nickelbacks to his plate will take that off of Stepps, who will just handle CB's. Still need a safeties coach in the secondary, plus Edge, LB's and DL.
  10. Anyone remember when people said they'd trade what Hakstol was doing for a national championship with some "down years" mixed in like what Sandelin did at Duluth?
  11. No. They wouldn't have to go through interviews and hiring process on internal candidates. We'll see how many he keeps but I'd be surprised if it was 8.
  12. Bump. Great time to donate. You can do an annual contribution and pay for 11 months and get the 12th month free. All the funds are then eligible for the match, which expires on Sunday. Can also choose where to put it, between the general fund or earmark it for up to 2 sports.
  13. Guessing part of it is who he's targeting, if they team they are affiliated with is still playing and how important are their remaining games.
  14. Actually makes a ton of sense as a fit but don't quite get the no football part.
