i know they'll never do this but i think they should hire someone who runs the option. we're never going to out recruit ndsu and sdsu so we need to do something different.

If this is the case, we are all wasting a lot of time and money on this.

SS.com hasn’t endorsed anybody. It would be foolish to endorse a candidate before we even know who applies.  That is an example of why school officials across the country aren’t interested in wha

Jerry Burns used to say it's your big knockers who decide games. 

It's a catch 22 in that you don't win until you get a bunch of big knockers and you don't get those guys until you start winning.  We need a dynamic recruiter/staff that can get enough of those guys to come to GF to get it rolling.

Seems like someone who learned with him/under him for 8 years and would likely get his endorsement should at least be considered.

 

He did but wanted to call plays.

 


 

I’m sorry for again another personal connection you may or may not have here clouding your judgement, but Eric Schmidt has NEVER been a collegiate head coach and as a defensive coordinator his defenses have been mediocre to poor. His defenses at UND didn’t yield any playoff wins and his defense this year at San Diego State was awful. 
 

So, the facts are with Eric Schmidt:

- never been a collegiate head coach

- never been a defensive coordinator and produced; that is, did not win a playoff game or consistently have greater than 0.60 win percentage with his defenses.


- UND only won 53% of their games when Schmidt was DC here from 2014-2019.

"Minimum 8 seasons of full-time collegiate coaching experience"

This rules out Fruechte.  He's only at 7.

Not sure why they would pick 8 years,  but experience would be a key factor.

I’d be most excited for Beau Baldwin given what he accomplished at Eastern Washington, but I’m okay with one of the proven DII head coaches:

- Bolte (Bemidji State)

- Olszewski (Augustana)

- Hoffner (Minnesota State)


Pipe-dreams:

- Tony Annese (Ferris State) 

- heck, why not Paul Simmons (Harding)

You are correct. I have stated more than once that we aren’t looking for someone with UND ties, we are looking for the best candidate to turn this program around. UND ties not required but not a disqualifying factor either. 
I have previously stated what I think we should be looking for in a head coach and we have listed similar qualities. Where we seem to differ is that I don’t care whether or not they have “UND ties”.  

I am confident that the best candidate to apply, per our agreed upon criteria and the qualifications listed by the University, will not have UND connections. Let’s see if that’s who they ultimately select though.

Kelly seems to think they are getting a lot of interest. 

Speaking of Alabama, I think their MBB, WBB and FB programs are all nationally ranked right now.

Not being #1 on campus does not mean you are destined to be bad forever.

It's what a professional does. Taking his toys and going home doesn't look good to future prospective employers.
