The next coach of UND football is....

[Fargo Sioux]

Congrats to Bubba and so excited for Sioux football 2014 and beyond. Can't wait to see the staff he puts in place. Living in the land of arrogance, I can already feel a little shift...a little "well, everyone will want to come to NDSU regardless" attitude...is the same thing that dug their grave in the early 90's. Right now, anyone and everyone goes to NDSU regardless. That will change with Bubba and his staff (especially if Schmitty is DC). I hope everyone in Fargo and all their "new fans" enjoy this last week of fun...

[The Sicatoka]

Folks, just have confidence that Brian Faison did what's best ...

...right, Sic? What was good before the decision is also good after, no?

Sounds like sour grapes to me. That's not like you. Your arms are even crossed in your avatar like something is bothering you.

Did Faison do it, or was he cornered by the old boys network (that doesn't exist ... yeah-right).

Sour grapes? No. Expectations beyond "recycled coaches".

What worries me worse is the NDSU guys who were saying to me that UND should hire Bubba. They aren't looking out for UND, are they?

And that's been my avatar, The Spectre, for months and months.

When Bubba's team goes 10-2 and hangs a BSC banner in two seasons I'll stand up and say I was wrong. Until then, call me skeptical.

Meet the new boss.

Same as the old boss.

I wish Bubba well, but c'mon! We all know he was the safe, cheaper option.

[Oxbow6]

In Bubba we trust....but more importantly "unto us a child (savior) is born"

Go Sioux and Merry Christmas!

[Siouxperman8]

Merry Christmas.

[UND-1]

Meet the new boss.

Vs. who? Who was the expensive option?

[gfhockey]

where do you think Faison found the money from?

From my good ole boy network

Schmidt for dc

hoffner or deboer of oc

[gfhockey]

why do you think when Faison said it wasn't easy finding the money to amek the change

he knew he needed to make the change

god ole boys stepped up and said if they get there guy they will pitch in .... and we got our guy!!!

[UND-1]

Question for all on this fine Xmas day. What is the difference, overall, of Bubba and Chris Klieman? Do a comparison. What are experiences, successes, etc.

Bison fans, would love your thoughts also.

[gfhockey]

klieman has a Wikipedia page

bubba doesn't.

wayne-o gets it

The good ole boys are here to stay!

[Hayduke]

Vs. who? Who was the expensive option?

Just speculation. In order to get a more qualified coach, more $$$ may have needed to be paid. Maybe the alumni ponying up the $$$ for the contract wanted Bubba because of familiarity. Again, speculation.

On the other hand, if Bubba did get more money for assistants, that may bode well for UND Football.

Nothing against Bubba, I want UND to succeed at the FCS level. But, count me as a skeptic. Like Sic, I hope he proves me wrong.

[choyt3]

klieman has a Wikipedia page

bubba doesn't.

That's the barometer? Really?

Klieman is 3-7 as a head coach. But he's inheriting a hell of a program right now.

[Mama Sue]

I like Bubba; being safe is good.

I think Wayne is right. Bubba is just what we need right now no matter how he got here.

I think BF made the right choice.

Easy now, don't rock the boat. (It's best if they don't realize it.)

[Mama Sue]

Could do the t-shirts with a bug GREEN "B"

[geaux_sioux]

'Bubba's

Boys' tshirts, think about it. Maybe Bubba's Broads also to keep it equal opportunity for hr?

[gfhockey]

[Refrain 1]

2 UND WIDEOUTS go round the outside

round the outside, round the outside

[Repeat Refrain 1]

[Refrain 2]

Guess whos back, back again

BUBBAS back, tell a friend

Guess who's back, guess who's back,

guess who's back

Guess who's back...

[Verse 1]

HE'S REBUILDING a monster, cuz nobody wants to

see LOSING no more they want BUBBA I'm BLITZED OFFENSES

well if you want BUBBA, this is what I'll give ya

a little bit of ALL OUT BLITZ with some PICK SIXES MIXED

WITH SOME RUNNING that'll jumpstart UND FOOTBALL then a

shock when I get shocked at the ALERUS by the CROWD. when I'm not cooperating

when I'm rocking the ALERUS while he's operating

you waited this long now stop debating cuz I'm back,

I'm on the RISE and WINNING

I know that you got a job MR. FAISON but SET BACK AND WATCH

So the BIG SKY wont let me be or let me be me so let me see

they tried to shut me down on ROOT SPORTS but it feels so empty without me

So come on and DRINK, bum on your lips DRINK that,

BLOOD on your lips and some on your tits and get ready cuz this SHOWS about to get heavy

I just settled all my NCAA VIOLATIONS (REDACTED)

YOU EMMERT

[Chorus X2]

Now this looks like a job for me so everybody just follow me

cuz we need a little controversy,

cuz ALERUS so empty without me

[Verse 2]

Little LINE BACKERS feeling rebellious

embarrassed, their COACHS GOT THEM RUNNING

they start feeling like prisoners, helpless,

'til someone comes along on a mission and yells "BLITZ"

A visionary, vision is scary, could start a revolution, pollutin the ALERUS waves a rebel

so just let me revel and bask, in the fact that I got everyone FOLLOWING UND

and it's a disaster such a catastrophe for you to see so damn much GOOD UND FOOTBALL you ask for me?

Well I'm back [batman sound]

fix your bent PLAY CALLING tune it in and then I'm gonna

enter in and up under your skin like a splinter

The center of attention back for the winter

I'm interesting, the best thing since BLAIS

Infesting in your kids ears and nesting

Testing "ON YOUR FEET ITS THIRD DOWN" feel the tension soon as someone mentions me

here's my 10 cents my 2 cents is free

A nuisance, who sent, GOOD OLE BOYS sent for me?

[Chorus X2]

[Verse 3]

A tisk-it a task-it, I'll go tit for tat with anybody who's talking this and that !@#$.

LEE CORSO you can get your BUT kicked

worse than them little BISON TURDS, and GRIZZLIES

you can get stomped by UND, you 36 year old bald headed WATCH me

You don't know me, you're too old let go its over, nobody listens to THUNDERSTRUK

Now lets go, just give me the signal I'll be there with a BLITZING PACKAGE

I've been WINNING, suspenseful with a pencil ever since

BISONS turned THEMSELF into a symbol

But sometimes the STUFF just seems, everybody only wants to discuss UND

So this must mean I'm AWESOME, but its just me I'm just obscene

Though I'm SAVIOR OF UND FOOTBALL

I am the BEST thing since DEAN BLAIS, to do WIN GAMES so selfishly

and use it to get myself wealthy (Hey)

there's a concept that works

13000 IN ATTENDANCE emerge

but no matter how many PEOPLE in the sea it'd be so empty without me

[gfhockey]

That took me a long time. you best enjoy

[bincitysioux]

Just so we can put to bed the DeBoer as OC talk, this is from a Carbondale newspaper:

SIU’s current offensive coordinator, Kalen DeBoer, who was reportedly a finalist along with Schweigert for the North Dakota job, will not be a part of that new staff in Grand Forks, N.D. DeBoer told The Southern Illinoisan earlier today he plans to stay at SIU.
