UND92,96 Posted Sunday at 01:05 AM Posted Sunday at 01:05 AM I think somebody else mentioned him in this thread several pages ago, but in terms of successful dII coaches from the region who have had done "more with less" than most of the other NSIC powers, Brent Bolte from Bemidji St. might be somebody to at least reach out to. 3 Quote

Schmidt has had success as an assistant with Fresno and Washington. Let’s see how SDSU goes over next couple years as DC. Tibesar has extensive experience at D1 FBS DC and as NFL position coach. He is a very smart guy, very well spoken. No HC experience. Both viable candidates worth considering. Let’s see if they apply and if either does who else applies. It would be a mistake not to consider either of them if they apply. You interview best candidates whoever they are and hire best candidate to move the program to top of FCS football. We don’t even know who will apply yet. 2 Quote

What I said was it’s the current HC 2nd and Schmidt’s 1st year and they need time to get their players. I don’t care if you’re Nick Saban, you ain’t turning that program around that quickly. Also, UND still couldn’t afford him UNLESS they take this move seriously. If they want to be a contender, they need to properly fund the program. No question UND needs to properly fund the program, but the way all things sit right now, UND head coaching job is actually comparable to San Diego State defensive coordinator job. Both (Schmidt and Tibesar) are well spoken with extensive experience but both without particular success as head coach or coordinator. I would be hesitant to strongly consider either … Quote

I would strongly caution against a similar situation as when UND hired Bubba in 2013. Should be a successful coordinator in FCS, or successful head coach at D2. Alternative could be a guy like Beau Baldwin, who knows Bill Chaves from their time at an Eastern Washington, and Baldwin won a national championship at this level (FCS). Quote

He better have a darn good reason for his Cal Poly tenure being terrible. And only lasting one year at ASU. Seems like he’s been trending in the wrong direction the last few years. 2 Quote

Idk his last head coach position, Cal Poly, thought they were getting a good head coach too: Quote On December 10, 2019, Baldwin was hired by Cal Poly as their new head coach, replacing the retired Tim Walsh.[1] Cal Poly President Jeffrey Armstrong introduced Baldwin as head coach and stated on December 11, 2019, "We need football to rise to the level of academics". During the remainder of his tenure with the Mustangs, Baldwin coached his teams to only 4 wins, held a lead in only 9 games, and was outscored by halftime of those games by 429 points.[10] Baldwin finished his time in San Luis Obispo with the fewest number of wins by any Cal Poly head coach through their first 25 games in school history.[11] Baldwin had an 0–5 record versus in-state rivals UC Davis and Sacramento State as Cal Poly's head coach.[12] Quote

I think it’s fair to state that there should be a better candidate with more recent success. Quote
rochsioux Posted Sunday at 01:45 AM Posted Sunday at 01:45 AM I have little to no faith in Chaves making a good choice. His judgement is lacking just based on giving Bubba an extension last year. I hope he makes a great choice but I’m not too confident. 1 Quote

Not sure what that means, but in doesn’t diminish his contributions to DeBoer’s successes. There is a reason DeBoer brought him along to Washington. He obviously valued his contributions. I believe he wanted to accelerate his career opportunities so took the DC opportunity at SDSU. I’m not sure he will take an FCS HC rebuilding opportunity for less money. He might. Others here that know him better think he might. Quote

I’d suggest looking up what he did at each stop and rethink your comment about his success being on the coattails of Deboer because it wasn’t. However, if you’re going to stand by that comment then you are basically implying that all of Deboer’s assistants success was due to Deboer only. I also don’t agree that the HC job at UND is on the same level as a DC at SDSU. Quote
Dustin Posted Sunday at 01:52 AM Posted Sunday at 01:52 AM In these situations, does a new HC keep someone (perhaps multiple someones) from a current staff to maintain some continuity with the team and committed recruits? Quote
