Risky Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 I don't think I have heard any body even mention Hedberg's name when it came talking about candidates to fill out our staff. I am not sure what that means. Dale might be scrambling at SIU. Quote
BigGame Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 Hedberg might be a good position coach but I don't care for him as an OC. Quote

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. You good ole boy network letting you down? Quote

SIOUX29 Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 I wasn't saying Rudolph is the next OC, just trying to guess who Gus is talking about? Quote

gfhockey Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 Does rudolph have recruiting connections Quote
UND92,96 Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 On 12/30/2013 at 7:21 PM, gfhockey said: Does rudolph have recruiting connections I would think so. He spent a number of years at St. Cloud, so would presumably be very familiar with the twin cities metro area, and would definitely have good connections in ND (as would Bubba and Schmidt). Quote
Siouxsudio Posted December 31, 2013 Posted December 31, 2013 I heard Hedberg is going to NDSU. Reported today by Fargo's McFeely. NO word on whether he will be OC or just QB coach. Quote
UND-1 Posted January 13, 2014 Posted January 13, 2014 On 12/18/2013 at 7:21 PM, UNDvince97-01 said: By posting those positions at the same time (this would make sense since they were made open at the same time as the head coach job) you eliminate the painful process of getting your guys in place. Maybe there is a position or 2 that take no longer to hire and fill out. If so, so be it. But at least you give the head coach the ability of getting everything in place in a timely manner and hit the ground running. After the hires are done, there is TONS of planning that takes place moving forward. Many, many meetings to decide who's doing what and calling who. Recruiting territories, all of it. Call it offseason "gameplanning". I see no logical reason for the assistant positions to have not been posted already to get the "clock" ticking. What you said above is what I wish would have happened. The main reason why there were no recruits this past weekend is because Brian "38-Day" Faison decided to make the process last so damn long so the staff was not in place and running by New Years Day.

geaux_sioux Posted January 13, 2014 Posted January 13, 2014 Got the first email from coach Schweigert today. Very impressive. He puts more heart into a simple alumni email than Mussman did. Basically he had three criteria for UND football players. 1. Great citizens 2. Great students 3. Great football players. He also said every decision will be made based of if it gets us closer to a title. Commitment, positive attitude, and self motivation are three other main points he hit on. We're in good hands. Let's not take him for granted. Quote

bincitysioux Posted January 24, 2014 Posted January 24, 2014 Hoffner is a finalist for the Minot State job...... Quote
Nodak78 Posted January 29, 2014 Posted January 29, 2014 Is everybody feeling better about our coaching staff now? We have 15 recruits and appears some very good ones. And more on the way. Faison made a great choice IMO. Yes maybe took too long but Bubba has put together a great staff that can recruit. I am definitely looking forward to Bubba Ball. It is 3rd and long. On your feet. 1 Quote
choyt3 Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 Looks like Hoffner is getting the Minot State head coaching job. Good for him. Here's soon-to-be-named Minot State football coach Todd Hoffner addressing players this morning. #NSICfb pic.twitter.com/d5RRnFY8qf— Ryan Holmgren (@ryanholmgren) January 30, 2014 2 Quote

It is tough for Minot to compete in that league but I would guess he will assemble a competitive team. Quote
Mama Sue Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 There is a God! Congratulations to him and his family. Quote
mksioux Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 Good to hear about Hoffner. I'm happy he's getting this opportunity. http://www.twincities.com/sports/ci_25027597/todd-hoffner-fired-mankato-coach-hired-by-minot Quote "With all the adversity my family and I have faced, we are looking to dust ourselves off, move forward," he said. "We need to move on and move forward in our lives, and hopefully this is a great opportunity for us to do that." 1 Quote
