Well, for starters, their football fan base travels as well as UND’s hockey. And to be blunt, like NDSU’s football fans. That sells tickets.

Successful FCS coaches (young coaches not looking for their last position) will inevitably move on. Just would rather see them to move to higher level programs like San Diego, Colorado State, etc; not SDSU, NDSU or others like Eastern Washington if they are not moving up from (for example) position coach to coordinator or coordinator to head coach.

I just want to see UND become a place for coaches to move up to higher level programs, not sideways to the same position at schools in the same conference or the same division.

yeah, I’m old. They taught that stuff back in the dark ages when we had to walk to school uphill in the snow.

Gene Hackman was a great Lex Luthor. RIP drop California into the Pacific. Make Yuma ocean front.

The WAC name had cachet in its day. If the Summit took on the WAC name with the Texas schools and started football, the WAC would have swagger again.

North/South being Dakotas + Northern Iowa and Illinois State in the North? That puts the Texans with Southern Illinois, Indiana State, Youngstown and Murray? Is this to entice the Texas schools by giving them the weak division? East/West would be MVC + Youngstown East and the Summit (Dakotas + Texas) West, putting the stronger programs in the West. Also would be easier to split Summit football. Then there could be 2 automatic berths.

Hope this is true

Guessing Sanford $ flows more freely than KEM $. Another reason Raboin wants to stay at augie?

Yes.

Is this (Jackson) like when the ob-gyn told us the baby would be another boy when he knew we wanted a girl? Then our daughter was born (Raboin)? Or is it like when we got excited that DeBoer was a finalist and then Schweigert was hired?

If I had a vote, which I don’t… fresh young blood. As we say on the golf course, new 9, new attitude.

From the UND announcement of Faison’s retirement : Faison led UND Athletics from triumph to triumph during his tenure, most recently with four sports programs winning Big Sky Conference championships in 2016-17 – the most titles captured by any conference school in one year. The cherry on top of the sundae of success was Faison’s peer designation as the 2016-17 Under Armour Football Championship Subdivision Athletics Director of the Year. Faison retired December 2017 Coaches were Schweigert, Berry, Jones, Brewster and Pryor.

Why would this statement of fact deserve a downvote?

Nostrdamus! Looks like you hit on every one. will you PM me the next Powerball numbers? please!

You are 1 away from Nostradamus level predictions. Eerie. Bring on D J Davis!?

Another DeBoer connection.

Wyoming is a top program?

And punctuation.

That’s the easy one… Who is going to decipher ND-FAN for us?

Why are cornerbacks and safeties coaches 2 different positions instead of one defensive back coach? Is it because of the 4-2-5 defense? Looking at some of the staff listings at other schools (Fresno, San Jose, Northern Illinois) some do not separate the 2, only one d-back coach. Having one d-back coach would free up some assistant coach salary pool $.

Edge closes Dec 31 and Safties closes 12/24 the others close 12/23

Now it sucks that we don’t get UND football for 9 months. Hopeful.
