  1. And now we're somehow debating the popularity of a sport..... as if that has anything to do with wtf we were talking about. If some of you had actually read the entire thread, you might have a clue as to why I called FCS football "JV"....aka in response to the nauseating ndsu posters' remarks. There is nothing wrong with playing in the second highest level talent-wise for the sport of football. And if you don't agree with FCS being second tier, I guess you can join the goat ropers to the south in their belief that they could take down the Alabamas and Auburns and Florida States. i'm a huge Sioux football fan and attend all games I can make it to. But there is no disputing the hockey program competes at the highest possible level. That's just a fact. We have ndsu and u of m fans on here taking over this thread having a rod measuring contest about which of those two have a better football team, and i'm the one catching flak for just mentioning the term "JV".......priceless..

  2. keep calling it JV football so you can feel better about your hockey team, which plays JV hockey, right behind the varsity hockey played in the CHL

    You're lack of logic is hilarious. What does a CANADIAN, PROFESSIONAL, level of a sport have to do with UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, COLLEGE, sports? THAT is your attempt at a comeback to the well known fact that FBS is a higher level of UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, COLLEGE, football? LOL LOL.

    Please, when goat roping class is over, explain to us again the different levels of collegiate hockey in the U.S.A..... I can't wait to hear your response.

  3. Settle down gentlemen. I just said that to rile the AC posters, who should maybe consider posting on their own boards, or making some friends...one or the other, or both. The fact that a UND discussion board topic gets turned into a rod measuring contest between AC and U of Mickey Mouse posters, is ridiculous.

  4. I don't really understand why people assume everything will be the same because the new hires are UND guys.... It's not like they are all clones just because they have similar backgrounds. Some of the most important aspects of successfully coaching a team would include instilling an attitude, a discipline, and a strong level of commitment. This is accomplished with leadership from the staff. Schemes may be similar, but the quality of leadership at the top is vastly improved IMO.

  5. Ndsu fans spend their hard earned minimum wage cash two things- busses and beer; not facilities. The BSA makeover is what, 10 years in the making and just got official approval? I can't imagine how long an IPF will take. It's great that Grand Forks is able to help out in their time of need.

  6. It's the intangibles that we will never know, I.e. players lost to transfer or potential recruits that have made up their mind to go elsewhere during the last two weeks while the program continues to spin its wheels with no leader. If you think it's reasonable for HR and Faison to take 2 weeks to narrow the list, make 9 phone calls, and conduct 2 interviews, well, all I can say is congratulations on your government job.

  7. I wonder how the applicants that are still employed at other universities are enjoying the snail's pace hiring process... I would think they feel an obligation to their current employer to not leave them hanging in limbo forever. And they are perhaps feeling a little pressure as well.

    I would not be surprised to see named withdrawn soon. Add to that the applicants who accept positions at other universities, and the end result may be choosing between chuckthepigskin and mr. Subway.

  8. We soon won't have to worry about recruits; as there won't be any. Faison has wasted the opportunity to bring in a new coach early enough to allow the new guy a chance to make contact with recruits before year end. FCS is allowed to contact recruits thru the 23rd of December.

    Sitting around with family over the holidays is when a lot of college decisions will be discussed.

    Our rudderless ship of a program will not be considered until a coaching staff explaining its philosophy can demonstrate to a kid his skills will be utilized in our system.

    Any current players that are questioning their futures need answers as well.

    I said it a few days ago and I see many others share my opinion that upon hearing the app was designed for Tibesar, I lost a lot of faith in this process. Completely unrealistic idea given the opportunities Tibesar has at the NFL level.

  9. I believe the one month "dead period" on recruiting only applies to FBS schools. It was brought up in the Craig bohl discussions- that he wouldn't miss out much on Wyoming recruiting as he continues to coach the bison.

    So, as every other FCS school is out working hard on recruiting, we are picking our thumbs and twiddling our a$$es, aimlessly taking our time to help assure our new coach is completely behind the 8-ball in his effort to assemble a staff and try to steal other teams' recruits.

  10. The moment I heard the qualifications were in fact designed for Tibesar, I immediately started losing confidence....that was such an unrealistic shot in the dark, that its frightening to think what's going to happen if that's what the brain trust came up with for its plan to pursue a new coach.

  11. Hate to say this but I'm losing faith with each day that goes by, especially after Faison's comments about Christmas. If he had a candidate locked up that hasn't formally applied, it would have been a done deal right after the deadline. We aren't the only ones looking for a coach. If he waits much longer we will hear more news about candidates withdrawing their name from consideration than hearing names of more possible candidates.
