I don't see UND moving Bubba to another position.  First off, they'd have to create a new job for him and they'd have to fund it.  Second is Bubba is under contract and has to agree to it and why would he when he's guaranteed $750,000 with what he has.   Actually he's getting even more if he coaches to the end.

It’s about him saving face. He otherwise is going to turn his current history with UND into an ugly ending if he sticks this out. He will create internal enemies if he tries another season as head coach with UND, and I can’t imagine he nor UND wants that.
 

It is time; this is an issue of himself vs the entire program (which includes alumni and fans).  Back in late 2013 during Bubba’s introductory HC press conference, he stated it was always about the betterment of the team (program), not the individual. Let’s see if he actually meant that or not …

No Danny return per source.....

 

That’s fine, although Danny has always been good. Get the best candidate, and in all honestly, an outside candidate with minimal to no UND exposure and high potential looking to elevate eventually into FBS would be the best. Fruechte would be the only internal candidate I’d consider, but again, external candidate with bright future is ideal.

It’d be nice if he had something positive to write about 

I don't click bait anything he writes.  He failed as a column writer, doesn't have any readers outside of Fargo that want to hear his takes on su, doesn't have any readers that want to hear his takes on political views and only brings up UND if he can disparage them.  Izzo is a doosh bag and has more credibility than fooly.

Thought there was no way this happens this year.... Did the forum piece ruffle enough of the money men's feelings to write some big checks AND bring in a bigger name

On the record @gfhockey who are they targeting???

Schmidt?

Nobody associated with the program previously please.

Hinted at former d coordinator.... But said that "source" is not too reliable but it doesn't take a genius to know who that might be....

Assuming if these guys are writing these checks they just might get to decide his replacement unfortunately.... Kinda how we got into this mess a decade ago

Ain’t a thing till it happens 

head guy change is not what we do

The Chicago Bears had not fired a coach mid season in their 105 year history until today.  There is always a first time for everything.
