With his connections, might be able to put together a solid defensive staff. I wonder who would be his QB out of the gate... Quote

ChrisUND1 Posted December 1 Posted December 1 Will a new coach realize that tight ends are eligible to catch passes? Will the archaic defense be replaced? Stay tuned. 2 Quote

With the coming FBS roster hard cap of 105 I’d advise anyone with a roster slot to be grateful. Could be upwards of 3000 guys without an FBS home looking for one. 4 Quote

A guy like Beau Baldwin - who has actually been a collegiate head coach at the FCS, and won a national championship, would also have a ton of connections, from Eastern Washington but also time with FBS programs/staffs at California (Cal) and Arizona State (ASU). Give me Beau. He's a viable candidate, but Baldwin has been in the downslide since he left EWU. His offenses at Cal and ASU were atrocious and his stint at Cal Poly was a dumpster fire. He is 52 and definitely not on a current upswing. Not saying with the right resources he couldn't be successful again, but he's almost a decade away from the last time he was actually successful. If he's interested, he'll get a look because of his connection to the AD. 1 Quote

SiouxFan100 Posted December 1 Posted December 1 I want a coach that will make the fans want to come to the game. Especially the fans that have been so loyal but were falling off because of all the problems with our program. 1 Quote
Sioux27 Posted December 1 Posted December 1 Digger Anderson as the DC in addition to TR as head coach. Quote

Cratter Posted December 1 Posted December 1 Ok the two frontrunner are Baldwin and Schmidt. According to Cratter. Quote
SiouxFan100 Posted December 1 Posted December 1 I wouldn’t be surprised if it was someone not mentioned here. Quote

If he's interested, he'll get a look because of his connection to the AD. Beau Baldwin did quite well in terms of wins and loses at Cal. He was an apart of a resurgence, with team going 5-7 his first season in 2017, and then 7-6 in 2018, and then finally 8-5 in 2019. Yes, the offenses were not that great, but team did okay. Cal Poly was a dumpster fire but it was during the pandemic when a poor job got poorer. The ASU season (2023) was bad. All in all, though, given his connections are equal to Schmidt’s in terms of FBS, and Beau Baldwin actually has been a successful (and champion) FCS head coach, I’d give the nod to Beau Baldwin over Schmidt.

Cratter Posted December 1 Posted December 1 Chaves hired Baldwin was he was only 36. Pretty young. It would be nice to hire a young coach who after 10 years at UND isn't at retirement age. 1 Quote

Schmidt’s UND ties are why we could get him - his 6 years under Kaelyn Deboer of playing chess instead of checkers is why you should want him. Someone who has seen it SEVERAL levels up and could come here and kick ass. 2 Quote
