Aren't you the one who "broke" the story on Kalen Deboer being named the next UND Head Coach?

Just a big middle finger to the cow college. Atta boy! (Cue Quiet Riot)

Micheal Kors has spoken.

Sorry not sure what I was thinking having alternate helmets and jerseys for special occasions (not bad company you mentioned there). Recruits hate that kind of thing nowadays. Feeling shame.

I like the idea of a matte white and/or gray alternate helmet, much like "westside's" avatar, except newer style obviously. Then eventually a gray alternate uniform. White, gray, black and green jerseys. White, black and gray pants. That's all we need. No green pants.

Why even respond to this garbage?

FYP....

You sure about that? He decided 2 days ago and it's not Hoffner. The hire is a great one though outside of the UND family. Think Old NCC ties.

How this process has been handled is indefensible. Do you think the candidates aren't saying to themselves "wtf?" right now? They know this is ridiculous but they won't say it publicly. Faison had a chance to take the process and bull by the horns early on, but didn't. When he knew he was making a change back after the game on November 2nd, maybe he should have planned accordingly for the timing of the process to play out? That's the real timing of this. November 2nd until today, December 23rd. He has no clue about the Division 1 football realities of today. This disaster of a process has clearly illustrated that. Just hoping for the best for UND DESPITE the actions and lack of quality leadership by our AD.

What's laughable is the thought that this dragging on so long has no effect on the UND Football program moving forward. Ever coached college football before? The proof is in the pudding. Kids have left already and damage has been done to the 2014 recruiting class. Those are facts. If the new coach was in place earlier, some of that could have been prevented. If they were taking this long because they were waiting for some potential candidate to finish their season, that would be one thing. But that wasn't the case because this whole process has been by the book. They have had it narrowed down to Deboer and Bubba for way too long. It should not take this long to decide between the 2. 10 days could have made a huge difference. The biggest joke of all is that Daniella Irle has so much say and input in hiring a football coach. Why? Just one reason why this whole process has been an absolute disaster, regardless of who they hire. There was no plan in place and it is painfully obvious that the world of division 1 football is alien to Brian Faison and his athletic department.

Unfortunately, Connor has a history of injuries/concussions so that is probably why D1 offers are minimal. Great player and leader. But of he was a USC or Ohio St type recruit, he would already be holding multiple offers and I can guarantee you the gophers would have offered already. I hope UND offers and gets him, but I have a feeling that if gophers offer he would take it.

You would think that Craig Bohl would want the opportunity to improve his 0-1 record against UND? Just sayin.
