Most fans are annoyed with the QB situation. Seems to be well liked by the players. I met him once and he was nice. But what has he done in that time where he is who we want as our next guy? Was the Adam Theilen tweet what pushed everyone over the edge? Theilen going to come be his OC? Adam Thielen is still in the NFL. Quote

Sioux94 Posted December 8 Posted December 8 I'm sure there was quite a bit of interest in this job and probably a fair amount of calls and discussions which weeded people out who weren't going to make it into the top three, so they never filled out a formal application. 1 Quote

I mentioned it yesterday, if Bubba stepped down last year and we hired the OC from Winona State to be our HC we all would hsve lost our sh*t over that. 1 Quote

Mostly involved in decisions about going for it on 3rd or 4th down, fake punt, onside kicks etc. May suggest or veto a call but if you watch him on sidelines it didn’t look like he was calling plays. 1 Quote

This. Bubba was a defensive coach. Look at offense under Rudy, the offense did a 180 when Danny was hired. Do we think Bubba all of the sudden said hey let's run a bunch of trick plays. Then as soon as Danny left we stopped running trick plays? No, it's because he put the OC in full control of calling plays, as he should have done. Fruechte called the plays, including that 2 point conversion. 1 Quote
Nodak78 Posted December 8 Posted December 8 I would be happy with either Tibs or Smitty. Very happy they would consider coming back and helping the school get back to top level again. I hope the money is enough to cover and get and keep great coaches. 4 Quote
HoopsFan03 Posted December 8 Posted December 8 11 minutes ago, fightingsioux4life said: What makes you think he is such a good choice? Young. High energy. Can relate to young athletes. Former professional athlete so knows what it takes to be successful and play at the highest level. Can recruit. Can motivate young men. Did well with not much this year (QB situation was on Bubba). Well liked by everyone. He’s a star in the making imo. The exact type of HC I’d want to play for. All of that is going to help us get the type of recruits that the other Dakotas get. Just my thoughts Quote

SiouxFan100 Posted December 8 Posted December 8 I thought it was definitely Schmidt based on miller telling someone at the UND basketball game last night? Quote
