because his forward momentum had been stopped

what kind of call was that on 3rd down? WTF

why would you burn all that time before calling a TO?

Bison 38 Hawks 10 talent wise we are a LONG way off.....

Someone brought up earlier the cost difference between the Summit/MVFC and the Big Sky. Is that a viable option? How much money would we save in travel? Just curious. Not trying to start anything. Serious question..

But we get way more kids from Minnesota/Wisconsin/SD/NEB then out west. Not even comparable. Really doesn't matter where alumni live because they usually don't attend away games. That said I would guess a high percentage of alum live in Minneapolis area compared to out west. I guess we will agree to disagree, I think other than the Montana schools the Big Sky doesn't offer us much. Nobody cares about Port ST, Idaho ST, Sac St N Arizona ect....

why would NDSU go to the students for this? All they would have to do is increase their ticket prices with the demand they have. It's wrong to go after the students IMO at any school. They are getting killed with the cost of College as it is.

Nailed it...Imagine a parent in Wisc, or the twin Cities. Now figure their costs to away games VS driving to UNI, ILL St. ECT...No comparison Or kids in Illinois... This area of the country the MV/Summit is just a better fit by far...Not sure how anyone can argue different..

Would take Dale back in a second to coach our team..

This is the type of idiotic statements by Sioux Fans that are not necessary. I would take a football championship ANY DAY over a hockey championship..sorry..

100% correct!!! This happens with EVERY team. No way you can ever satisfy 90-100 kids when only 22 start....

You think this dumb a@@ knows what he is talking about? He has been talking out of his a@@ for months on this board. Let me try to clear some things up from what I have heard from my son who happens to go to Davies and also played football on the Varsity this year. First he told me the twins were going to Concordia to play football. Then a few weeks later it was Northern. Then at the end of the season he said they told people they both had full rides to SDSU. Then when the one twin got kicked off the hockey team they said SDSU pulled their scholarships. Now is any of this true? I doubt it. I questioned the SDSU thing as I had never seen/heard of them recruiting these kids. I have seen these kids play in person about 20 plus times. Are they good football players? No doubt!! Are they Div 1 football players? Not sure about that..plus they have some issues. Not going in to those issues but if you have kids at Davies you know what they are. I do think the QB has a chance(small) to make it. The WR would have to get a lot faster to make it. Add on the fact that neither of them have given much effort in the weight room. Hopefully that will change in College.

Sorry, don't agree with that. Injuries happen...Call it bad luck, but they are beyond the control of the coach's in my opinon...

Stop defending this!!!!!!!!!!!!! apparently you and Bubba are the only two in the USA that would do something so stupid...

Totally agree, we should be getting ready so we are the first local school to move up. We need to get back to where we have an advantage over the local FCS schools in my opinion.

My neighbor said SU is just about out of scholly money so we should start hearing from some kids real soon. Cant believe we have four commits and they are full but our AD put us in this situation..

if this works this is an awesome get!!!! 7ft with his talent are rare!!!!

Totally agree. Have to give Bubba at least 2-3 years to get this thing turned around. We have a lot of re-stocking to do and that takes time. The AD put this coaching staff at a major disadvantage taking so long to get him hired... All I want is for the team to be competitive...tired of the 30-40 point beat downs..

Not parents at all!! Talking about people in the know in Minot(Boosters) These people have been tied into Beaver athletics for over 30 years...Again, don't kill the messenger!! Just telling you their thoughts!! These are people that go to every game!! I certainly have no idea how this will turn out! No where did I say he was a bad coach!! Just what I've been told.

True, was talking about his Junior year! I have heard he is definitly Div I talent my friends have said LB? Pretty impressive for the Soph to be 1st team all-state. There is another kid in Minot my friends have talked about. Don't remember his name?

Quick question to anyone in the know. Are we recruting Austin Cieslak out of Hazen, ND? In watching the championship game I thought he looked the part. Big guy that moves very well.

Ok, my bad. Not saying there isn't ways to turn this around at all!! But I am tired of people dreaming that this will be fixed in a year or two. This is going to take some time. Our new coach's were put in a very bad situation by waiting way too long to hire them. That's on our AD. I like Bubba and think he has a shot to be successful. Personally I would have taken a shot at the EX-Montana coach. He has had success in the Big Sky and has run a very successful program. Did he have baggage? Certainly but so did Bohl and look how that worked for SU. Am I sold on most of the new coaching staff coming from ND? Not really but time will tell. I know it sure cant' get worse!!! It's been a while since I posted on this site. Mostly because last time around I pointed out some things about Coach Muss and recruits and was blasted. I call a spade a spade. I am definitely not a kool-aid drinker like a lot on this site. At the time I said Jake Miller wasn't a Div I running back. I got BLASTED!! I'm going to throw out one more. Again not trying to be negative just things I've been told. I have friends in Minot that are very tied into athletics as Minot State. They are elated Rudolph is gone. Said he is a horrible coach. Doesn't mean he can't be a good OC. I personally think we could have done a lot better at that position on the new staff. His track record is St. Cloud State and he has zero Div I expierence. We will see...I hope I'm wrong but by far my biggest concern on this staff. On a side note he was one hell of a QB at Stanley. Watched him in a playoff game in Hazen come back from a major half time deficit to beat the Bison

That's idiotic!! Seriously, a Div II team...Do you really think NDSU was at their best that day against a crappy Div II team...Your taking stats from THAT game...Wow, you SU guys are something else.......You must be really bored to sink to this level...

Like him alot!!! Saw him play twice this past season. Heard good things about him from my friends in Minot.
