Or they want Z to be healthy at the end of the season for a change. I'd love to see him turned loose teams are banged up and tired come November.

We dropped at least 4 interceptions at KSU and had a TD called back at Montana. Also missed a lot of throws and blocked a guy in the back at the goal line. We've had a LOT of player mistakes and some coaching mistakes as well. Despite that, we've been close and are seeing kids coached up and utilized like never before. Coaches are closer to elite than the players at this point, but you can see the improvement in the roster already. We'll be fine.

Great game today. For a good chunk of the game this felt like old UND football, being able to rely on the defense to get stops. Turns out our d line is not going to be a liability and that should make any game we play the rest of the season winnable. Jerry didn't have his best game but I think he'll do nothing but get better the rest of the season. I think we took too many deep shots and in the second half. i would have liked to have seen us run the ball a little more, especially Z. I wonder if that's Jerry Autumn bullying into the deep throw when he sees single coverage with out a safety over the top? We were having some stretches where we were getting chunk yards on the ground on consecutive plays and and regardless of the potential to complete a big pass play, in a game like this, I think we would have been better off keeping the ball on the ground I'd like to see the formation where thetight end was covered... That penalty hurt. Future's bright at UND though!

What's next year looking like for these ladies?

I didn't see anything last year that made me think Jerry wouldn't turn out to be a good QB. Still tickled that he didn't get more garbage time. That alone made me glad to see bubba go.

I'm not going to get too excited about early commits. For some it's just a way to say "considering offers with serious NIL money only"

Please add Chaves to this list

Are we moving on from kaminsky? Or did he transfer out? I liked what I saw from him in very limited time he got and was hoping he would buy into what Smitty is selling.

I'm really disappointed. This whole tracking tail numbers thing turned out to be a farce. I spent hours and hours on that and I could have just as well learned how to use an abacus for all the good it did me. I do like the Schmidt higher though. He has to have learned a lot from DeBoer and were going to find out if the DeBoer coaching tree is going to produce.

Either they want Jerry to leave, or they are absolutely incompetent.

We could certainly use a talent upgrade. That's true for most teams regardless. Bigger issue by far is bubba. Bubba isn't going to bring in better talent through the portal. Not sure what we've seen in the past 10 years that would make anyone believe that's a possibility

Short memory

Not at all. Our current path over the last 10 years falls on bubba, not so much on the talent that we have. Good coaches can get their players to run through a brick wall. Bubba is never going to accomplish that and he's also not going to replace any of the good players who entered the portal with better players from other teams. Turning things around at UND isn't going to be accomplished by bringing in a mass number of portal players - think Missouri State. It's going to be accomplished by getting rid of bubba

Dumbass question. Losing talent to the portal isn't going to help us until bubba is gone. You like having a !@#!$ coach and less talent than we have now or what?

Agree 100% if we got a new guy, but that isn't happening anytime soon.
