What the heck would you call it when a guy is forced into early retirement and the heir that they had been grooming as his replacement for 10 years beschorner was let go? This was a firing and a starting fresh with a new staff, if you try to spin it any other way you'd be wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think your projecting my friend. Also, just because I have Bison in my name doesn't mean I don't know people in other programs. Short of name dropping which I won't do, you'll just have to trust that someone who was very closely tied to the USD situation is close to my family.

Didn't he interview as a finalist and not get hired over a guy who who was twice national coach of the year at DII and just led a dreadful WIU team to the playoffs for the first time in a number of years?

Yes, he was told for years it was his job. Even when Glenn came in he was considered for that job, as it was told to him, Glenn was to come in as a mentor and stop gap until he was "ready". Glenn's early retirement and beschorner not getting that job was a clear message that they were unhappy with the direction of the program and it was time for wholesale change.

The coaching staff was turned over, 100%, I believe. Isnt that an indication that the athletic department wasnt happy with the current staff and how things were going or are you just arguing with me because I have Bison in my name? If Glenn truely retired and they were happy with the direction of the program, continuity on the staff would have carried the day. if bubba retired today, due to the direction of the program UND would be adamant about hiring an "inside guy" to keep the momentum rolling.

So he can't come back after getting more experience at Pitt? It can still be his job. Did he ever get an head coach in waiting title like Jimbo Fisher got at FSU? If not it's hard to argue the hiring of an experienced head coach like Nielsen over a lifelong coordinator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure he could come back, most of the fanbase had become disenchanted with the former USD star though and was ready for some new blood. He just got hired at Rice btw, so moving up the coaching ranks. Not sure if he ever had the official head coach in waiting title, but he was the associate head coach I believe.

BarnWinterSportsEngelstad Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 22 hours ago, Bison06 said: Yeah, USD was rising so much following that 24-21 win in 2015 that they decided to fire the entire coaching staff and start from scratch...that makes sense. 2015, USD beats NDSU, NDSU goes on to win national championship. 2016, USD loses to NDSU, NDSU doesn't win national championship. USD is improving, but to use USD games in 2015 and 2016 to show NDSU is slipping actually bolsters the opposite argument than what you are claiming it does. I believe NDSU is a better team than UND or USD today, I've given you that before. Of course the pollsters will have JM, Youngstown, and NDSU up there at the start. They weigh heavily on past results, and then the polls change through out the year. Now I responded to both You and a poster named "North Dakota", of which both of you showed weakens in SD. You stated "They certainly weren't the best representative of what the MVFC offers up for competition". I showed how close SD games where with NDSU in the last 2 years. Look below. NDSU split one score games in last 2 seasons with SD. Prior three years NDSU won 2014 47 - 7 2013 42 - 0 2012 54 - 0 2011 didn't play Competition get n better and Bizon slipping.

Hopefully 1 and done is around the corner or missing completely isn't far away either. Here are some interesting stats of points scored and total yards over last 4 years of Bizon vs their opponents. Year Points / Game Yards / Game Bizon Opponents Bizon Opponents 2016 29.1 16.6 407 319 2015 34.9 15.3 423 271 2014 32.9 14.1 432 280 2013 38.7 11.3 457 255 Gap is tightening, the lines of the graph are on a collision course.
