Wouldn’t you rather have a young aspiring ad out to prove something then another lazy ad riding the wave to retirement?
Young = Inexperienced. Now a young coach out to prove something is a different story. We should have hired Craig Smith when we had the opportunity.

I hope the next ad uses us as a stepping stone. That means he will have goals and aspirations to take ya to next level
er don’t need a retiring ad in last gig.
So the next AD must be younger in age...got it.

Yes und will be the duke of the summit league....and all the other teams will be playing for second place...und will bring in 4 star recruits.pay their super coach 1 million a year so he will not take a better job....build a 15000 seat basketball arena to generate revenue...
This is the attitude i hope our new AD comes to the plate with. If not they are just filling a void between Faison and the next AD after they are forced out.

We technically don’t have an ad right now rite?
You of all people should know the answer to this question. What are "your" people saying right now? Do you have a dollr amount set side for donation towards Jones buyout?

That's a lot of speculation there. Have they even published the finalists yet?
Brian Jones had good timing last year. I doubt they'll fire him this year even if he lost every remaining game. I just don't think Kennedy would want to deal with that PR after cutting sports last year.
Now I could see them firing him if if they do poorly in conference this year and start poorly next year.
When will we be done b*tching about cutting sports that no one went to or followed but dumped a sh*t ton of money into them and also making it a reason for not spending money in the future. Yes, this is a lot of speculation but look at this as an opportunity for everyone to reset, hire the right person and move the athletic department in the right direction rather than towards mediocrity. If they play a wait and see approach to the Coaching situation they will get burned. 60% of the time it happens all of the time.

They did not find 100k 2 years ago...zero chance 400k
Yeah, under Brian Faison? No !@#$. I wouldn't have given Brian Faison my used toilet paper let alone cash to spend.
The new AD (whoever they are) will motivate the donors after they realize the big picture. Making the Big Dance year after year and getting an occasional big dance upset is bigger than anything the football or hockey team could do from a national attention standpoint.

New ad is going to give jones a 420k buyout....what ya been smoking
So they wouldn't get rid of him because of 420k? Trust me....They will find it.
I wont go to another BB game until he is gone and I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one that feels this way.

If I were Jones I would start packing asap.....once the new AD gets named and realizes how much potential this team really has but doesn't play to it's full potential he will be told to kick rocks. Jones is a Mussman 2.0. Was saved from being fired because of one good year. Hopefully the new AD whoever they are has enough brains to look past that.

Reason? Is it because he's a midnight toker?

We need a QB, RB and as always more OL. Edit: Linebackers too.
Probably stated somewhere here but Iowa State's QB is transferring. Worth pursuing?

I'm looking for 2 lower bowl or Club section tickets to any of the games/dates listed below. Let me know if you have any available and how much you are looking to sell them for. They are going to be for a last minute Christmas Present so looking to buy now rather than later.
Sat, January 6th vs Omaha
Fri, January 26th vs DU
Fri, March 2nd vs SCSU
Sat, March 3rd vs SCSU
Go Sioux!

My prediction...UND loses by 25+ as Daum will be allowed to do whatever he wants. Until Jones learns how to recruit "bigs" and coach defense this team will get killed by any team that has any kind of inside game.

I'll be your huckleberry...heard last night that DU converted 50% of its power plays this weekend (trying to verify that). Anyone here think that, regardless of whether good or bad penalties, that that's probably NOT acceptable for any team's PK unit?
I'm not going to make excuses for the team but when you are facing a man short for almost half the game compared to the other team I'm surprised it wasn't more like 60%....

Im sorry but Montgomery is a sore loser. He wines about every call. That was a goal. Jolliet had no chance on that. It was a bang bang play.

You know, I agree with essentially all of this, which is very upsetting. If Bubba doesn't want this fixed, then the new athletic director better be ready for an early and very important move on his part.
The team went 3-8 during a season with championship expectations. That's not due to just injuries. Bubba expects things to get better with simply another trial (season), no changes. That is insanity to me and it will likely show next season. This could mark the beginning of the end.
Amen...I can honestly pick out on this site who are Minnesota Vikings fans and who are not just by the "okay with mediocrity" responses. We need more fans with balls and who live life with the "if you are not first....you are last" mentality.

Minot State is on their 3rd coach in 4 years and they've amassed a record of 8-36 in that time (of which 6 of those wins were against equally crappy if not worse UMary and Crookston)...I'm on record saying I don't like Rudy as OC but it's not like he left Minot and the Beavers became a powerhouse.
They must be dealing with injuries too....hmmmm
New AD posting and hiring process

If they hire Mike Mannausau UND might as well go back to DII...the Bubba hire was not as bad as he at least left UND and came back but to hire within like this would be the worst decision I have seen yet since the Mussman and Jones contract extensions.
