UNDBIZ Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 So.... coaches, we've got the HC, OC, and DC. Guessing we'll stick with Baukol as strength coach. Appears Freund may be sticking around as QBs (he also got married recently, congrats to him on that). Rumors surrounding a Minot asst Rodgers for DBs. Perhaps Schmidt does LBs along with his DC responsibilities. Would like to see Lotyz back for OL, give that man a parking space. That leaves Special Teams, DL, WR, and RBs.

UNDBIZ Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 With what players? Wr's are gone, no secondary to speak of. With the players coming back, I don't see 2 wins on the schedule. Saw Sparks tweeted this morning that he's moving to Cali... Everyone's leaving. Sounds like a joke in reference to the cold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UND92,96 Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 I really hope Bubba gives Hoffner a chance to get back into coaching. Maybe OL coach? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UND-FB-FAN Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 who picks the position coaches? the head coach or the coordinators? any leaders at this point? Coordinators chose who they like but obviously the head coach has final say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UNDBIZ Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 There won't be a Hoffner hiring. Has the whole ordeal broken him mentally or is he just not the right guy for what we're trying to do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bincitysioux Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 So.... coaches, we've got the HC, OC, and DC. Guessing we'll stick with Baukol as strength coach. Regarding the strength coach, Bubba has already said he's had a couple of visits with Baukol about the importance of the conditioning program. But after watching several FCS playoff games and many Big Sky teams the past two years, I'm just wondering if this is an area where we are lacking. Every saturday at the Alerus I raise my eyebrow because the opposition always looks bigger, leaner, stronger. Is the result of our off-season workouts, or the players we are recruiting? Combination?

Huh, as soon as he gets an opportunity to play he decides to leave. Seems odd. Saw he had a kid and got engaged, perhaps that played a role. Well hopefully Sharp sticks around.

This, very noticeable in the trenches. We can't train linemen the same way we train WR and DBS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

choyt3 Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 Getting a strength coach with ties to Nebraska's would be a great start. They know what they are doing down there. Or find someone that has worked for Baylor's strength coach. Talk about intense. Or stay the status quo... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UND92,96 Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 I can't help but wonder what is the bigger factor in this mass exodus--the unreasonably long delay in hiring a coach, or Muss simply recruiting a lot of the wrong kids? I'm not sure we've ever seen the kind of roster overhaul in one year that we're apparently going to see from 2013 to 2014. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After 3-8, an impending change in offensive and defensive philosophy, and "Dancing with the Stars: Sidelines Edition", is that bad? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
