UND-FB-FAN

You’re kidding, right? “SDSU only gets to the dance because they play in a weak conference ...” UND is in that conference and they are losing to SDSU by 25 points! They have been swept by NDSU. So your metric is outstanding seasons over consistency? UND has made the dance once under Jones but overall has a losing record. Nearly all administrators and operators take consistency over unpredictable ups and downs; I know what I want. Jones needs to go. I do agree that Jones doesn't want to be here. Since you brought it up, he is a horrible ambassador for UND.

UND basketball is irrelevant right now. Fire Jones. Should’ve been done years ago. New leadership is desperately needed.

The most recent Heisman Trophy winner was only 5’9” .... Im not worried about 6’1” AT ALL. There are so many other factors more important, such as leadership, arm strength and accuracy, and decision-making. Most importantly, possibly, is clutch play. The good ones make big plays in big games in big situations. I think Freund’s offense and QB coaching will make the most difference in UND’s QB play.

Things aren’t always perfect. Fantasy land for shep.

bias and preconceived notions ... perfect example

Thanks for making my point; many on here selectively read posts and target. You read what you want and/or expect to read. Do your homework if you really want; I highlight both positives and negatives.

Incorrect. I would thoroughly assess, which ALWAYS includes both positives and negatives. Sorry you don’t realize the areas of needed improvement.

What happens when he doesn’t make tournament to show off his unreal skills?

Awful coaching last night. Fire Jones. Fire Jones. FIRE Jones. And then hire a young coach with great potential. Man I hate those ***** from Fargo...

And where did I say that? Again, you’re exaggerating. I stated the QB situation didn’t go according to plan, but that doesn’t mean UND can’t succeed. Comes down to Freund and his ability to coach up the offense.

Ecstasy is one hell of a drug. But yes, Go Fighting Hawks

And let me guess, you’re ecstatic? UND to go undefeated for the next 5 seasons?

Exaggerate much? 2016 was the last successful season. 2017 and 2018 were not. 9-13 record shouldn’t lead to excitement nor be considered success. It doesn’t take much to satisfy your low expectations, apparently. I guess I’ll follow your hyperbole and say you’re the biggest delusionist I have ever seen.

I wouldn’t describe the situation as success, especially as “smashing success,” but otherwise I agree there is good potential.

See my post above. Sensitive much? UND missed on top targets - fact. UND is 9-13 over the past 2 seasons - fact. Deal with reality better. I hope UND is much better next season.

UND missed and couldn’t close on their initial choices for QB. That is a fact and is reality. Dont be bitter about it towards me. I agree that QB recruiting will be far better if Freund has a good first year running the offense. His offense will be very important for UND football in ‘19, because we will get what we have got in terms of defense with Bubba and Schmidt. Happy for the Michigan kid at QB. Good high school accolades. Best of luck in Freund’s offense.

The QB recruiting situation this cycle has turned into a disaster. Not good first go of it in recruiting for Freund.

Actually, let me clarify: NDSU = deceitful arrogant pricks ... and cheaters Beyond obvious [former] NDSU coaches were involved and several NDSU players were on said illegal preworkout mix. Therefore, Matt Larsen is a liar. There is fair likelihood of lawsuit; not imminent, however.

NDSU = cheaters

1) hire young coach with great potential but also affordable for UND 2) *far more controversial* play more games in the Ralph Engelstad Arena

And USD and NDSU have had some great seasons as such. Sure they aren’t top programs currently, but still better than UND. I understand we all want consistenty, but if we want “great seasons” at this level, we need coaches that will eventually be hired away by bigger programs. Having coaches like Bubba and Jones is great for familiarity, but ultimately they will be medicore because otherwise bigger schools come looking. I vote for young coaches with great potential that also fit UND’s affordability as far as hiring football and basketball coaches. Salary is a limiting factor for UND’s non-hockey sports.

Think what you want, young Aggie. Your bias and ignorance is what is truly evident here. NDSU got caught doing some shady stuff. It is what it is. Really typical of that program and not unexpected.

Competent offensive coaching. Let’s see it, finally. ‘14-‘18 were tough.

It can only come from players or students? Your narrow-mindedness is actually what’s laughable.

It wasn’t being spread throughout the locker room and his mother wasn’t a UND alumnus mad at her own alma mater.
