UND Red Zone Offense, including playoff games
Danny (2022): Points on 43/47 (91.4%); TDs on 36/47 (76.5%)
Danny(2023): Points on 43/49 (87.7%); TDs on 40/49 (81.6%)
Isaac (2024): Points on 43/48 (89.5%); TDs on 32/48 (66.6%)
Isaac (2025): Points on 53/67 (79.1%); TDs on 45/67 (67.1%)
These numbers confirm what most could see was happening: UND was far too inefficient in the red zone the last couple seasons under Fruechte. It cost them games. This should change under Freund.

As always, this place is....interesting.
A former gopher player is in the mix for the WR job.

The cannibalism on here can be a bit telling (and concerning).
Anyways, carry on. Big things happening and some will continue to be pissy regardless

Perfect showcase for FCS in a new venue/city and Monday night primetime. Like I said, can’t wait for UND to play in this game.
Amen

Nashville is superior to Frisco, Texas. Go figure.
Nashville should get the game indefinitely moving forward.

Gordie has expressed his desire to be a coordinator, so agreed he is the most likely.

The open WR coach position closes today (Jan 5).
Catches my eye:
Minimum:
- 2 seasons football coaching experience at the NCAA Division I, II, or professional level and/or football playing experience at the professional level.
Preferred:
- Professional playing experience (i.e. NFL, CFL).
Nice work ✅…

When WR is our biggest need, a terrible time to not have an OC or WR coach named.
All is going to work out. Eventually there will be an OC and WR coach. Very soon there will be wide receivers (and other offensive skill players) committing to THE University of North Dakota. All is going according to plan.
It’s a ways away from August, but I’d still be getting your popcorn ready …

If he weighed 190 he’d get P4 offers. IMO staying one more year and building up his body would make him more money in the portal and get him a better look at the pros. Hope he succeeds but I don’t think he set himself up properly here.
Yeah he screwed up, but in this day and age, one or two kids will unfortunately do this to themselves every year until regulations are put into place.
Would always welcome SS back to UND if his mind cleared but I’m sure that ship has sailed …

At the very least I can tell you he will play significantly less snaps. Like not even in the same ballpark on how he was used this year.
It is why the grass is not always greener on the other side. These kids are getting bad advice and going for a few bucks but sacrificing their future in football.
No chance at all-American status, no chance at all-conference, no chance at professional football. Sticking with UND football and getting opportunities and development is usually the better option. Happy to see that Lance Rucker understood this …

Wonder if he was expecting P4 attention…
Not that impressive of a list, considering whatever $ he makes will be insignificant in the long run based on what I believe UND offers in terms of pro development, NIL and education …
I suppose you could argue JMU is a fine football program based on making the College Football Playoff this season …

He was here two years…… what do you mean so long
That comment you’re referring to was in reference to being content with mediocrity and complacency while Bubba was head coach for 11 seasons.
Don’t have to be critical of individuals and their families while also recognizing a need to move on … this is division I collegiate athletics and the numbers are growing every year.

he was all in for UND
This is debatable. He was always holding out for Minnesota Gophers, Big 10, or NFL, as his comments indicated. But, to his defense, many would be.
Anyways, onward. Big opportunity for UND football, as said.

Maybe but he still had to get the job offer. Let's take the high road and wish him and his family well. He was the interim coach before the hiring and kept things together.
No one is wishing him ill will. But we can also desire better. Hard for some to differentiate the two around UND, hence the reason we were stuck with mediocrity and Bubba for so long.
Anyways, on to the next thing. As said before, hopefully this is a win-win for both parties.

Anyone with a hint of ball knowledge knew that UND needed to go a new direction offensively by the end of the season. The offense had lost its identity and rhythm. Kaminiski didn’t have the answers to the test anymore.
This is a win-win; UND gets a new offensive coordinator and Fruechte gets to go to his beloved alma mater. He’s not ready yet to be a play-caller; hence why he’s going to U of MN to coach the position he played, not the one he wasn’t ready yet to coach at UND (QB/OC/on-the-field playcaller).
Big opportunity for Coach Schmidt and UND football now.

I’m saying an OC and a passing game coach (QBs and WRs). Just one hire.
We likely won’t see QB/WR being coached by one individual. Doesn’t work logistically. More likely the OC coaches a position (QB most likely), and the remaining position (WR) is coached by a new position coach.

They are a coordinator and just like any other 9 months from now will be getting ripped to shreds on here for calling some stupid run or pass play that prevents us from winning a game.
Or … just maybe … raise the standard (and your petty expectations a bit)!
Thankfully you won’t be making the hire! Nor will anyone on this website for that matter …

Elevate Haug and hire a QB/receivers coach.
That’s two hires and a promotion … a lot to be determined yet.
This is a big move. Major opportunity for UND to get better. Most have conveniently forgotten just how disjointed the offense was for UND. That side of the ball needs better coaching to match what Schmidt was/is doing on defense.

Exactly.
Thus having Bubba as HC x 11 years was a travesty, but we know how that story ended.
The current path is the one to be excited about. Set high expectations. We want the current coaches - as much as it might sting - to be promoted on out of here in 2-3 years.
