Cratter Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 NDSU plucks coordinators/position coaches from conference foes. UND plucks from D2. 1 Quote
BigGame Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 Watching the press conference Bubba knows what type of guys he would like to hire. Just because someone has experience doesn't mean they are good or will be a good fit with UND and it's new football philosophy. I trust Bubba, and will not prejudge whoever he hires. For several reasons I wouldn't judge any coach based upon how they faired at Minot State. Quote

UND-FB-FAN Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 Paul Rudolph brings to the table lots of general coaching experience and regional knowledge which is crucial for local recruiting. It would be interesting to see him at the DI level. He's really never had a DI chance, and he likes to run the ball, so why not give him a chance? 1 Quote

Cratter Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 What about Schmidt? Haven't seen a rumor he will be hired...unless you count this site. Quote
sioux24/7 Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 Haven't seen a rumor he will be hired...unless you count this site. Tom Miller mentioned something about him. Quote
Cratter Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 Tom Miller mentioned something about him. I've been meaning to get on twitter. I think Schmidt would be a good addiction. Quote
jdub27 Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 Tom Miller mentioned something about him. Along with Sioux Football Insider guys speculating on it as well. They've been right alot more than they've been wrong. 1 Quote
Cratter Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 He said names that make sense: Schmidt and Schlafke...looks like he already might be 0-1. Or maybe he likes names with "Sch..." Quote
Nodak78 Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 Rudolph must have close connection with Bubba. Rudolph's son now and asst coach at Minot was a grad asst at SIU the year before. I will say this Minot has recruits from Florida, TX and CA. A few from Montana and most from ND and MN. He may have some good connections to HS coaches in those areas. Quote
siouxkid12 Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 I've been meaning to get on twitter. I think Schmidt would be a good addiction. you got to remember; Schmidt is "sort-of" local and his wife is local. With him and his wife having two young kids, I would imagine that he applies so everyone can be closer. Quote
hky Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 Isn't Schmidt a candidate for the DC at SIU? Quote
Nodak78 Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 I read somewhere that Dale would run the defense this year. This was right after Bubba was named HC at UND Quote

I will say this Minot has recruits from Florida, TX and CA. A few from Montana and most from ND and MN. He may have some good connections to HS coaches in those areas. There 11 kids from ND on the Minot roster (4 of those are from Minot, the other 7 are from areas close to Minot: Velva, Harvey, Turtle Lake, Bottineau, Berthold, New Town) ZERO kids on the Minot roster from Minnesota schools. Not exactly the ideal recruiting footprint for UND. Maybe he recruited more of MN, Wisc, Iowa, Neb & Illinois while he was at St. Cloud & Upper Iowa. Does anyone remember this from this fall? I do... major red flag for me.... http://espn.go.com/c...cop-knocked-out Quote

zonadub Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 If Pflugrad can't make it after allowing a player's parent to post bail....... attempted murder? not a good reference... Quote
Westside Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 Realistically how many quality mn players do you think they could convince to go to Minot State? I wasn't saying how many MN kids he should have or should not have on his Minot roster. I was replying to this post where someone stated that "most from ND and MN" Just pointing out that there isn't a ND kid on the Minot roster that didn't grow up within an Hr or so radius of Minot, as well as zero MN kids. Rudolph must have close connection with Bubba. Rudolph's son now and asst coach at Minot was a grad asst at SIU the year before. I will say this Minot has recruits from Florida, TX and CA. A few from Montana and most from ND and MN. He may have some good connections to HS coaches in those areas. Quote
Nodak78 Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 My bad. I thought I saw MN kids on the roster. Minot had 7 recruit from Montana. Quote
SIOUX29 Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 How is this put on Rudolph? He wasn't with them when they did this. They where all suspended until the University oked them back, and not all where welcomed back, not Rudolph. He didn't try bail them out, or hire lawyers for them. It was some knuckle heads being just that. Quote

It was some knuckle heads being just that. Well the Pflugrad detractors blamed him for allowing a culture of rape to grow at Montana. Apparently Minot has a culture of murder and the coach is responsible for establishing culture and recruiting good student-athletes. Note: I don't necessarily believe this, I'm simply pointing out how dumb the argument was from those who felt the need to justify the rejection of Pflugrad. Also, Pflugrad didn't try to bail out or hire lawyers for players. Quote
