Now I am looking forward to spring ball as we will get a chance to see some of these mid year transfers. Plus a chance to see some of the red shirts that I know little about.

Let's not get too far ahead of ourselves. Much tougher schedule is gonna make a repeat difficult. Btw, a friend tells me the SU Red shirts are their BEST EVER.

Not sure if I believe it, but they are very confident going into next year, too.

And the next thing they'll tell us is that they could win the MAC!

No one can predict what will happen next year, but I am excited that we are poised to be a part of the playoff conversation for years to come.

Four year extension for Bubba. Go Hawks!

[jdub27]

Good thing Faison was reading siouxsports last week, I was starting to get worried he had completely forgotten about Bubba and staff...

[AJS]

Great news!

"The contract extension and salary increase for Schweigert also includes a salary pool increase for his assistant coaches, which is in keeping with President Mark Kennedy's statements this fall that UND would invest in championship teams."

[UNDMOORHEAD]

Raises for all coaches is great news and well deserved.

That's great, shows good team work! Really terrific news for UND FB with that ink dried. Some big salaries at Delaware and Richmond.since playoff losses.

Well if they can make it to Frisco too maybe those red shirts can prove it against us.

Try winning a playoff game first

Hard to know much about redshirts. I think the idea of a redshirt is pretty dumb anyway.  Don't agree with them in concept.

This is called a Reverse Curse.

IF things go wrong next year, I'm blaming you.

 

And if things go right, do I get credit?

And I don't agree with somebody who is not a fan, sitting on a fan board daily......just to sit and take pot shots at a team whenever there is an opening.  But hey, maybe that is just me.

Very well deserved!   Bubba is without doubt the right man for UND.  Glad UND showed the love.

Not sure why.  Redshirting makes the product on the field so much better, helps student athletes physically and gives them a better shot at graduating on a 4-5 year plan.

Agreed, most people do not graduate in exactly 4 years. I thought I was on target but still took 4.5 years.

Anyone watching Idaho smash Colorado State in some stupid bowl game? As we get our hopes up for the future, recall they are joining Big Sky football in 2018.

Hope you picked the over on 110 combined points.

Their QB had harsh words for the Administration for moving them down to FCS. Wonder how it will affect recruiting. Less money is a factor.

How will this work for Idaho??? Essentially recruiting guys right now saying we can't give you a scholarship because we are dropping down?  Do they go a recruiting class or or 2 without scholarship players?

I wouldn't worry about Idaho, they have had only 4 good seasons ever in football. This year would be their fourth.

I wonder how competitive they will be long term.  They were very good for about a 13 year stretch before they left the Big Sky.  Other than that brief time period, they have been a pretty poor program regardless of their classification.
