You guys could do a contest….enough to fill the front and back. Too cute to let this die…. You know MN does a contest every year to name snow plows…actually the STATE does (MN DOT).

I really like this. Who does T-shirts up there? Green with black letters and maybe some white ( three colors cost more), printed on one side, back?…get XS to 5XL and charge more for anything larger than XL. price is depending on the cost of the shirt and printing. Could also gray shirts but NO white. And a NIL donation is awesome. We could copyright/trademark this. If we do not use IND or Hawks we could, you know. someone needs to get together for a beer and figure this out.

Now if you men grill or smoke meats…you need to check the “S?&t” series of seasonings and meat rubs. They are on Amazon. Anyway I gave my sons several for Christmas last year…. Fighting Hawks Schmidt Series Schmidt Happens Good Schmidt Bad Schmidt Tough Schmidt No Schmidt Dumb Schmidt Little Schmidt Big Schmidt Bull Schmidt Hot Schmidt I mean, someone go for it!!! And post here where to buy the T-shirts….add/subtract other ideas to go with Schmidt.

Great News! https://fightinghawks.com/news/2024/12/13/football-coach-schmidt-announces-fruechte-as-offensive-coordinator.aspx?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR3veFZ82Tk6jJ_3wmoA33iYoD6EVKP6pgURup3sUfUNJxbGS8w_mABYmpQ_aem_bA4-u8LvdOm2XyzLEaN76Q

gfhockey…you made my morning someone needs to do a t-shirt….Let me know where to buy one….green, something UND and a football helmet, then big letters Schmidt Happens with a few lighting strikes

Well, does NIL apply to coaches? Public employee issues? At least put some trivia on the cans. What season had the most QB sacks? I mean even very conservative cities allow these ?growliets. Do I have that right? A % of the proceeds goes to ….. what?

Has anyone transferred in yet?

Oh I would think that has already been decided. Not public knowledge yet. Some positions can be negotiated with the HC…who he wants to bring with and at what salary. Yes, I would think the first two years will be “buildings years.” But I think the positive vibes will be enough to put more in the W column. Also, having Bubba, with his football knowledge and knowing first hand the needs of the program, in some admin/fundraising position will be a huge asset!!! Good times coming!

The Schmidt beer stuff is neat. The Cold Spring MN brewery did a 4 can set for the state baseball tournament. They do custom stuff… one can for each city that had a tournament site and one can in general with the tournament logo. So this was VERY popular. $25 for the 4 can set. I purchased one as a souvenir. It was a two weekend tournament. Anyway the beer had to be kept cold and some business had a refrigerated trailer the board rigged up a generator/plug in. Anyway, after the first Sunday somebody stole the whole trailer of beer like at 3 am Monday morning. It was found, empty, in my friend’s corn field! One can HC, OC, DC, and ST…could do the Sioux logo too….someone in GF should be able to put this together. Could you order a set somehow? Not sure if ND or GF laws!!

Sounds like we are truly moving into 2025 football….hope Eric brings that solid UND value system with him for coaches, players, and fans!!!

Amen

And weren’t the HC, Oc, and DC all young and inexperienced? All around bad decision from the AD and whomever made that decision. BUT what do we know about keeping the OC or DC now?

Money talks….I hope the salary reflects an investment in the future of the program.

His strength may be his personal integrity, family name, and years at UND. The alumni staff is great location for all 3 of his strengths. Glad he will be here in some capacity.

I am not so sure we need strong ties to UND…some fresh eyes might be good.Are we keeping OC, DC, and special teams coaches? Sometimes more than one leaves. I do not think Eric S would come back…. But I don’t know. Our OC and DC need to step up on recruiting…. Bubba bleeds green and will do a good job in his new role.

Happy Happy Happy! Go Sioux!

It is very difficult to walk away from something you love. I just did that, couldn’t even turn in my keys. I just handed them to the secretary l. At what point does Bubba say…time to go? For me it was time to turn this over to someone younger….a changing of the guard. But the AD is not totally innocent. He should be working in this. If there is trouble in paradise, his rear should be at the Alerus. Been gone a long time from here but I watch or listen to every game.

I did a simple Google search. Average $2,716 for all colleges, all sports. BUT college football players are much more “marketable?”. Average in Big10 $216,000 and SEC $565,000…football is BIG in the south. These figures do not reflect other benefits….like a highly recruited 4 star player driving a new $90,000 Dodge Ram pick up the afternoon he signed. I also saw the lowest paid person was $67. Not sure what year this is….social media is reporting $1M now, for what it is worth.

What have you been smoking? I would be very surprised if average NIL is 3K now. Not sure when the study was done. I still do not like the whole concept but it is here to stay.

I love and respect his comments!

I sure appreciate the great radio announcers. Great game!

One QB sac and at least one TFL in each quarter!!! GO SIOUX

Wow…they should have lined up by a brick wall instead (to pee) not shoot!

What shooting in Fargo? I listen to Fargo radio stations and nothing.
