Expand Money wasn’t the issue in 2013 at all, just an unfortunately poor decision. Money still isn’t the only issue now, but it does help. There’s more money at UND for football, but the culture and historical trends continue to get in the way of that. Quote
Mama Sue Posted January 5, 2024 Posted January 5, 2024 Money is always the issue…wars are fought about moral issues but there is always a money reason behind it. Revolutionary War: freedom but increased taxes to England Civil War: slavery but cotton tax increase behind it one QB said he was offered $3M for NIL but would not name the school…. Quote

UND Football Fan Posted January 13, 2024 Posted January 13, 2024 Alternate multiverse, we hired DeBoer 2013, Bubba stays at SIU. DeBoer turns team around and makes playoff 1st year, and makes to National title game. He leaves for a better pay/opportunity after 2015 season. That year Lennon is done at SIU. DeBoer takes most of his staff to that next HC opportunity. Chances are we hire Dale if not Bubba. Dale coaches a few years 5-7 or 7-5 ball and retires. Then AD keeps it in house and hires Bubba 2020 season. We could be in the same place as we are now if we went with DeBoer. This post is mostly jabberwocky on coaching thoughts, but gives the semi-geeky fan something to think about. Quote
