He will be making well over 1 million, I think he will be just fine! I’m sure Klieman will take him in if USC dumps all its coaches again.
Is that even the case?
Even most blue blood assistants don't make seven figures. USC is private so who knows if we'll ever even know.

This job gives off Babich vibes. Take a demotion, get more money and get back to a job you are probably better equipped to handle.

Two angles that I love about NIL:
First is it allows top level athletes to make a good amount of money in college. This is a good thing because we all know some horror stories of guys who were studs in college and had a freak injury ruin their chances at the pros. That screwed over a lot of families that were looking at generational family changing wealth.
The other angle is some athletes are making so much in college that they’ll stay an extra year or two instead of bolting ASAP for financial reasons. This makes the product on the field for college sports better and more entertaining for us at home.
I also enjoy that it lets great college guys who don't have the skill set to make it big in the pros get paid.
Think how much guys like Eric Crouch, Danny Wuerfle, etc could have made lol

And people make fun of the Alerus…… Kibbie Dome is nothing special.
The Alerus is fine. The only people who make fun are my fellow NDSU fans because it's small. Nice place though.

Yo Yo iit’s Mexico.
We are only like 5 of the 180 FCS teams to make the playoffs 4/5 last years or whatever that stat is.
Let’s remember without Bubba and Danny, we could and probably would be much, much worse.
Would that be fun? Nope. This team gives us more than something to cheer for every year.
We don’t pay our head coach 350k plus and our assistans 150 k plus like NDSMoo and SDSMoo. Those are top, top programs. We are a top program. More than 5 people need to get their checkbooks out like the Moos.
Sadly at UND, those numbers plus go to hockey. Ever seen what our basketball assistants get paid? Pathetic.
To most of the haters on here, take a look at the posts, your spelling aint so good.
As Dabo Sweeney at Clemson recently said to a critic, “You are welcome to apply”. Good luck.
I am also guessing recruiting to the frozen tundra also aint so easy. I remember walkiing to class and had blurry vision. Everytihing was damn frozen and it took me half the class to figure out one of my lenses had fallen out.
Get your checkbooks out and support the team and coaches.
Maybe you should pay Matt Entz from Moo U to come coach the USPS birds. I dont think anyone would be sad to see him leave.
But recruiting coaches and players to live in Grand Forks ain't easy. And I like Grand Forks more than Fargo

So having been at the game today...
- The defense was to blame and anyone who tries to say anything else didnt even watch the game. One of the worst defensive showings I have ever seen by a UND Defense. Im old enough to remember when we were good at defense (thought bubba was a defensive coach). 35 pts should be enough to win.
- That being said.. If Danny would have just called running plays we would have won the game.. Defense stiffened in the 3rd quarter and I thought we might pull it off. Danny overcomplicated the gameplan and didnt play to our teams obvious strengths. Tommy regressed this year but Danny could have hidden all of that with just having him turn around and hand the ball off. Even our last series.. plenty of time to run the ball.. Tommy did not look good.. gavin.. skokna.. Isaiah.. were carrying the squad.
- Time to be done with Tommy.. His shortcomings are obvious and while his is the statistical leader in pretty much every category due to his longevity in the program its time to try something else.
- As I said earlier.. Im not sold on Danny being the answer as a HC.. I believe if he had adapted to our teams strengths this year we would have won this game and the South Dakota game at a minimum.
- The crowd was also not the problem to day.. entirely predictable.. but also the people that showed up were into the game and loud. Which says alot considering the defense was about as strong as a wet paper bag. Until the 3rd quarter we could have left the defense off the field and had the same impact..
- Also I know it didnt matter but I hated the punt in the 4th quarter.. with the defense playing like a wet paper bag it was reasonably obvious we would never get the ball back. If Danny hadnt called two crap pass plays and if Tommy hadnt taken two crap sacks in a row.. maybe a 4th down would havent been 4th and forever.. cmon man!
Im sick of this team and investing my time and money into it. Even with our obvious deficiencies I still thought we would pull it out today.
My rule of thumb is if you score 30 points (barring exceptions, of which several exist) you can't blame the offense.
Didn't watch the game. Felt bad for you guys. Always next year I guess.

Does UND get to pick the game time?
Regardless, in theory making Sac State play a game at 10am local time seems a bigger adjustment than UND adjusting to noon.

I wouldn’t call it a boat race, special teams and INT gave UND 21 points. Z and Luke are banged up, and NDSU is playing more focused football.
Going to NDSU with them a week off preparing against a team they already played is an NDSU advantage IMO.
UND punted once. They ran at will. That was indeed a boat race. Did some things go right for UND? Sure. Doesn't change what the game was like though.

Here comes a first round bye for NDSU, a UND home playoff game, with the winner going to Fargo. Watch.
Wouldn't that be best case scenario for UND? Wouldn't you want UND to play against a team they already boat raced?

Had a fun weekend with friends from both schools. Did not enjoy how the game went at all. Will make future games more fun though.

Endzone seat for NDSU. Doubt the buyer would wanna sit with us, but it gets you in the door.

Flickertails was the best option yet IIRC it wasn't even considered

Plus it just smelled bad. Probably makes the lineup anxious

Rocco has done a better job in this postseason, but this decision has backfired big time already.
Ryan was doing fine. I'd have at least let him go out in the 3rd.

Shoutout to one of the guys at the ticket office. Needed 10 tickets for the Army game. Emailed them early this morning asking if they could work with me on that since tickets on sale today. Dude got back to me in about 20 min, gave me a call, and got me set up. Helped me with the Wisconsin tickets too even though I only needed 4 for that one.
Much smoother process than I was anticipating

Bonita Pizza, they make Up North Pizza and a few other brands.
Also give Johnny B's a try. Very solid frozen pizza. They have a restaurant in Jamestown.
Johnny B's is very good. Will vouch for it

The memories from the 70's at that place! Wow
Friendships made, parties and activites, hockey players living there.
Time marches on. RIP WALSH
Had the pleasure of visiting a friend over in Walsh I believe. What was wrong with the building? It wasn't very nice but most dorms arent.

It's not. I have said this for a few years, or at least going back to when we dropped women's hockey and I did a little research. The A.D.'s office probably breaks into a cold sweat whenever they see 4-5 females coming into the office to discuss opportunity...whether it be Hockey, Rugby, Wrestling or something else.
Looking at some of the bigger schools in the country it seems that women's rowing seems to be the way to even out the participation prong. Looking at the sheer numbers on B10 rowing rosters and I would wager there are 20-30 girls walking around campus who are unaware they are even on the team.
I am sure they are aware they are on the team. My cousin went to Columbia for track. Went out to visit her and she introduced me to a friend who was on the rowing team. Turns out, the girl did not row in high school. Just had a solid build and the coach told her they'd teach her how when she got there. I'm sure the B1G schools engage in similar conduct lol. Coach needs to put a team together after all...

Exactly, it's more self entitled parents thinking their kid is better than they actually are. Being upset your daughter wasn't named a captain for the upcoming season at the year end banquet is ridiculous.
When I was in high school (07-10) we voted on captains during the preseason....isn't that the norm?

If you are Fargo and GF: It might be a mild irritance but I don't think it will affect you too negatively.
If you are in Whapeton and Mayville: PANIC!!!!!!
Yeah I am not too worried about NDSU or UND. Affordable schools close to home that are much more respected than St. Cloud, MSUM, and Mankato.

Bohl for sure stuck around. I think Klieman did too.
Brian Kelly was eating dinner on a recruiting visit, stepped out to take a call, came back and kept eating.....then an hour later it broke he took the LSU job..per the kid's dad.
