Jerry, you are free to go. Who the hell would want to stick with this staff.

Stat padding time so Romfo's numbers look better.

Romfo trots out onto the field again. Not shocking at all. This is so damn pathetic!

If Bubba is head coach next year wish I could hit the portal.

Yep, would he win the starting job at any other FCS schools? But ya let's not pull him out.....ever.

All I can think about as I sit here and watch this disaster.....is the fake punt against NDSU when they knew it was coming and Bubba was too dumb to call a timeout. That is the single worst coaching blunder I've ever seen. Can't believe he will likely be around for a few more years. I'm sure he is looking forward to his off season naps so he doesn't have to take them during meetings anymore.

5 straight losses, but let's not question the coaches. News flash, we aren't winning this game so why not put Jerry in, maybe it gives us a spark. We have 10 points through 3 quarters.

Ya because what we are doing right now is working so well. I've never seen so many skipped balls off the turf in my life.

I sure hope Siedl stays.

Yes they will still be a top 5, probably top 4. They will only have one FCS loss, and it will be to a top FCS team.

Fruechte could get him in if he wanted. But Bubba as HC could also getting in if he wanted to. So it's on both at this point.

I agree, if Fruechte wanted Jerry in he would get him in.

Our passing game outside of Bo is pretty bad.

Bubba is some clueless.

Yes, no pressure at all, skipped it 10 yards short...my god. Can't believe Jerry is on the bench.

Good point, this offense might be pretty ugly without Bo.

Give it a rest already

I don't give a crap what the score is today, I just want to see Jerry in running the real offense before the game is completely over.

Jerry won't get in much today. Bubba has the worst head coach awareness ever.

I'd say it's 90% Bubba just let's go of Joel and he can be the scapegoat and Bubba will think he's doing what he did after letting Rudy go and relieve the pressure by doing that. But this is different, we all know this won't change things for the UND football program. Bubba is the problem and needs to go. I'll have a hard time rooting against our players once the game kicks off tomorrow, but another loss will help keep Bubba's seat hotter than hell even when he fires the DC to push blame off on Joel. As long as Bubba's the HC I want his chair to be on fire, maybe he won't fall asleep during meetings then. I think Bubba would have the chance to somewhat save face if he retired after this year. But if he continues another year and we have another year like this, he can look forward to being seen as getting kicked out the door with his tail between his legs and that will be his legacy.

I miss Shannon on the podcast, but this would have been a rough year for him hearing all the talk about Bubba.

Going to be a lot of transfers out this off season. And we have we almost zero chance of winning more than one playoff game next year without some drastic changes. Not sure we are even .500 next year. Next year is a lost year anyway, just like this one. At this point I'm ready to roll the dice on a change/reboot.

Saw this on FB today in a comment on the North Dakota football threads. According to this there were football alumni that highly recommended Chaves not extend Bubba and made their feelings pretty clear.

Ultimately it's up to Bubba, but when Bubba is a defensive coach....you can't tell me that Fruechte doesn’t have a LOT of pull in that decision. If Fruend was here, in my mind it would be Fruend making the call as to who gets thr start to start the season. It may never be mentioned publicly but I think Fruend, and now Fruechte say who they would want to start, and HC can go with it or not. Now if Fruend, as a former QB and offensive coordinator became HC then I'm thinking he is making that call. Anyone here think Bubba is some kind of QB Wizard and is going to go against their OC's choice as to who the starter should be? Hell Bubba doesn't know when to call timeouts. You think he needs the stress of it getting out that the OC suggested starting a QB and he chose the other guy and went with that other guy?

It makes way too much sense to give Jerry either the start or alternate series to give him some experience and to see what he's got. But this inept coaching staff won't do it. If Jerry doesn't get snaps this week Fruechte you should also go when Bubba leaves.
