This was the same basic problem with Mussman. Too much focus on athleticism and not enough on the intangibles when it comes to both recruiting and in-game management.

Nice summary on how I feel about things. And I am glad I am not the only one that feels this way.

ESPN will replay this over and over again. So if you didn't catch it the first time (like me), you'll get many more chances to watch it.

That depends on which state you are talking about. Anyway, my point still stands.

If we don't have the money to get and keep the best assistant coaches in FB and other sports, then we have bigger problems than Jones.

I think Jimmy Kleinsasser played basketball his first year.

This will be a tough case to solve.

When you add up the Federal and State taxes (including every state New England played in), that isn't as much as it looks.

In fairness to Faison, he did what had to be done and fired Mussman with years left on his contract. Let's wait and see what happens with Jones before criticizing Faison.

The two major differences between UND and NDSU are the number of sports we each sponsor and we each have one program that the other doesn't (we have hockey, they have wrestling). Otherwise, we are very similar (same state, similar enrollment, both in one-bid conferences, same climatological challenges, same geographical challenges, etc.). But if you want to continue to insist that UND is an apple and NDSU is an orange, by all means go ahead. Or keep making analogies that have nothing to do with my basic point, because that is one of your strengths on this forum, isn't it?

So comparing two schools with very similar institutional profiles is now inappropriate? Okay, whatever floats your boat. PS: Your analogies were poor, please try harder next time.

Yeah, hardly any school.....except NDSU.

Yeah because Grand Forks is so much colder and more isolated than Missoula, MT or Fargo, ND and therefore, this is as good as it will ever get.

Well, Jimmy Kleinsasser was a Class B athlete in football and basketball and he turned out okay.

That truck may have been $10 to Brady, but it was pure 14K gold to an undrafted rookie free agent who is (probably) making the league minimum. Brady was recognizing the fact that this kid clinched a world championship with his INT at the goal line, which is what a leader does. Could you picture Terrell Owens doing this? Or even Randy "That pot isn't mine" Moss? No and no. I'm a Vikings fan, but I really don't understand the hatred that Brady and the Patriots get from the rest of the football world. And this was the case before spygate and deflategate.

Okay, fair enough.

Hey Mr. Moderator, what's with the politics? We aren't supposed to talk about that here, right?

Did enough people boycott it so that it wasn't profitable? In any event, good news!!!

They why do they allow him to call our games? Sometimes I think it would be better for us if they didn't.

Shouldn't that be Scott "My, Oh, My" Miller's job? Must be nice having TWO flagship radio stations (KFGO and WDAY). Something definitely needs to be done about this because being invisible in the media is not good for any program.

The point is, he didn't have to do it and he did it anyway. A lot of guys would have said "Screw you, I'm keeping it because it's MINE." But missing the point is a common habit on this forum, isn't it?

This is why Brady is the leader he is. This is how you endear your teammates to you. Johnny Football, are you listening?

Only a hardcore alcoholic could do that and still function. I hope that guy gets help before he drinks himself to death.
