Montana's coach at the end was awesome. Would be cool to have a coach like that here.

Took 141 pages until Muss was fired.... 40 more to go!

This is just a thought I had, how often are successful head coaches anywhere near Jones height? Obviously Phil Jackson is one of the greatest head coaches of all time so he's an exception but honestly how many have been that tall? There may be no correlation but it seems that the best coaches are point guards and those that were not stars.

Let's hire somebody, anybody from Wisconsin's staff. They play basketball the right way.

And there's about a group of 10 maybe talking about it.

There's a chance EWU loses Harvey. I guess he graduates in the spring and will be able to transfer and play immediately if he wants.

I have never seen Hanson play football and have only seen one game of him playing basketball but we can absolutely not lose him to NDSU in either sport. I know he visited NDSU this past year for football but from what I have heard he is more likely to choose basketball.

I think Saul accepting the job at Ohio U may have been the best thing to happen to NDSU. If I recall correctly, many were not big fans of his and were calling for his head after the game against us last season. Seems like Richman was a very good hire for them.

So hoopster, in your opinion what would Jones have to go next year in order to be fired? I just wish since hoopster believes Jones is such a good coach that some other school would come calling.

I could not agree with this more.

There is a scoreboard....

Is there any hope left that we could see a coaching change?

One thing that I noticed about NDSU that I like is that they all wear the same shoes. It's a small thing but makes them seem like more of a team. We have players wearing all kinds of different shoes. Really not a huge deal just something I noticed.

It would be terrible. Just a feeling I get nothing really behind it.

Makes sense. I think Shields could be a candidate too. Reminds me of the Gentry situation a few years back. Could have probably received more playing time and isn't from the area.

On the Herald Live Chat today somebody asked about possible player defections from this team. Tom Miller responded with, "With a tough season like UND just experienced, I wouldn't be surprised if there were some defections." I am just wondering who some of those candidates could be?

Well it's looking like one more year as most of us expected.

This is exactly my fear. I think we are going to be stuck in a rut.

Because Jones 17-17 record is soooo much better.

Where is gfhockey? We need his inside information.

The players people would worry about are Hooker, Cashman, Shields, Seales and Crandall. If any of them decide to move on, fine. One step back to take 1,000,000 steps forward.

If anyone leaves because Jones gets fired, fine I would rather that than have to suffer through another year of watching his teams.

Do the Jones defenders honestly think we can't find a coach that would do better for us? Are you kidding me!? Come on now.

I would agree with that. I'm in the boat of moving on but I still think it's unlikely but more likely than it was earlier on.
