UNDBIZ Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Weber St. has fired their head coach and I'm sure they're just the first of many. Hopefully our 1 week head start pays dividends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zonadub Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 2 weeks to go. Anyone have insight as to who has actually applied or been invited to apply? Solid names? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southpaw Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 so does that mean that Pflugard is off the market, as in he will be the new Weber coach? If you had the opportunity at Weber or at UND which would you take? I honestly don't know how much Weber supports football but with the new IPF and the Alerus, UND has some nice positives for a future coach.

UND92,96 Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 I'm going to go way, way out on a limb and say that none of these people are going to be UND's next coach, but in case you want to know who actually has applied so far, here's the list: http://kfgo.com/blogs/so-many-opinions-so-little-time/953/montana-state-defensive-coordinator-among-those-whove-applied-for-und-head-coaching-job/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UNDvince97-01 Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 I'm going to go way, way out on a limb and say that none of these people are going to be UND's next coach, but in case you want to know who actually has applied so far, here's the list: http://kfgo.com/blog...d-coaching-job/ I agree. Based on the hiring process and human resources protocol for UND and this job specifically, I'd say there is 99.9% chance you are correct. I don't think the candidates who will be considered seriously by Faison will throw their hat in the ring until very late in the game, perhaps right before the buzzer. Just the nature of this hiring process beast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMSioux Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 I'd say there are some candidates with interesting backgrounds that have applied - also knowing that many more won't come in until the last few days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UND92,96 Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 Perhaps the most ironic applicant is Robin Ross, who was Muss's o-line coach from back in his Iowa St. playing days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdub27 Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 I'm going to go way, way out on a limb and say that none of these people are going to be UND's next coach, but in case you want to know who actually has applied so far, here's the list: http://kfgo.com/blog...d-coaching-job/ Agree on that, but just for fun, the two most interesting ones to me just from the information provided are: -Nicholas Siciliano, (most recent job) offensive assistant coach with Cincinnati Bengals (also was quarterbacks coach at Ohio State from 2005-2012) -Jamie Marshall, (current job) assistant head coach/defensive coordinator at Montana State Haven't looked to see what others have for experience in their background. Hopefully there are some with a decent resume other than their current jobs, otherwise some of those guys are going waaaaaay out on a limb.

darell1976 Posted November 27, 2013 Author Share Posted November 27, 2013 I like this one out of the 18 Nicholas Siciliano, (most recent job) offensive assistant coach with Cincinnati Bengals (also was quarterbacks coach at Ohio State from 2005-2012).

He is also a Youngstown State alum which I'd guess is his tie-in to Tressel and Ohio State. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UNDBIZ Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 Jovan Dewitt and Jamie Marshall both look decent. It doesn't look like Dewitt has had the greatest time at FAU, but it appears he did well at UNI. He's originally from Wisconsin, played at Northern Michigan, and was a DC at Northern Iowa. Seems like he'd be able to hit our recruiting areas fairly well or at least know people who can. Huh, he also played a year for the Fargo Freeze of the Arena Football League.

My thought is McFeely doesn't have anything to rile up the NDSU faithful about this week (yet), so he's looking to a different place for a reaction. He's not as dumb as he comes off sometimes, reactions to his statements pay his bills. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VMeister Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 McFeeley said today, Why would anyone want the UND job? What does everyone think about that statement? Probably would have been a legitimate question 3-4 years ago. Now it sounds moronic. With the nickname and conference problems settled; Alerus and new IPF; fan support if they put out a good product and nowhere to go but up – what open FCS position would be more attractive?
