I had $300k in mind. Coordinators around $125k. I want the proper investment made.

Maybe a better choice than Johansen.

Roehl got crushed in Big XII conference championship. Not saying that’s a strike against him, just his game day status.

Two coaches who don't have an important game today....just like Bubba.

Woodley won NAIA quarterfinal. Johansen won FCS 2nd round. Bolte lost D2 quarterfinal (to Hoffner, who gets mentioned occasionally), Freund won FCS 2nd round, Schleusner has yet to coach today, Caruso and Schmidt did not coach today. Who am I missing?

Right??!!

I was thinking along these lines but not even as robust. Hope we make the investment.

I agree, announcement will come tomorrow night or Sunday, presser Monday.

It’s been mentioned in other ways, but Fruechte CANNOT be the next HC, even though he’s a guy I wouldn’t mind keeping on staff. The AD’s lack of imagination and commitment to actually climbing to the top of the heap would be so obvious.

Unless I'm not thinking of the right person, Fruechte did not coach with anyone being considered (at least by the SiouxSports contingent), did he?

Guess I should have done the math.

Yep. Glad they found a way to make it work.

"Here's how to consistently lose on the road but never really be held accountable." ??)

I voted for Bolte, but Caruso seems like a fine pick. So does Woodley, who was not presented as an option in the poll.

One thing I hope happens with this change is a more robust salary for the whole staff. If we want to belong in the upper echelon of the MVFC we need to pay people like we expect them to win.

I would assume that’s what the interim head coach is doing.

Someone mentioned that Caruso and Fruechte have a previous connection - remind me what it is?

Ok. Which one was yours?

Woodley?

Maybe someone with a good sense of the timeline can explain the athletic facilities improvements (specifically related to football)relative to Bubba being hired and his tenure as a University employee. How much of what has happened was a result of Bubba being involved, if any?

I would think the job would be very attractive, actually. Kind of like what Kelly was saying.

And Bolte as DC.

Initially Schmidt's defenses were good, and actually bailed out lackluster Rudy offenses. I remember going to those games hoping our D would score because wasn't sure our O would.

Maybe Bolte as UND DC is a step up from BSU HC?? Don't think you'd get a current FCS coordinator to make a lateral move, though that very thing just happened to us (TWICE in a week!!)
