Entz looks like a Fresno guy too lol. They deserve each other.

Is Fresno a hot bed for the anti-dentite crowd?

I'll wild arse guess Caruso and hope I'm around long enough for the thread resurrection.

Way too good to be true

[gfhockey]

Chavez doesn’t have it in him to make a splash hire I’m afraid

 

name one good hire he’s made or extension

[MNHawk]

I’ll say Bolte is the guy I would like to see hired.

It’s a legitimate concern but I’m hopeful.

Hopefully there are five or more acceptable hires so hard to screw this up

I would think the job would be very attractive, actually. Kind of like what Kelly was saying.

Is that why Chavez letting people apply then calling instead of calling then applying?

[gfhockey]

Thinking that plane is tied to a trucking company out of Wisconsin. Doesn't mean it wasn't borrowed/rented but who knows.

The company is out of Baraboo, WI. Open corporates says registered to a Kenneth Larson.  Which led me to this young man.

I find his story interesting.  Don’t mind me, just doing Tom Millers job during my leisure time.

Probably hammering out compensation as we speak.

Maybe someone with a good sense of the timeline can explain the athletic facilities improvements (specifically related to football)relative to Bubba being hired and his tenure as a University employee.   How much of what has happened was a result of Bubba being involved, if any?

What was the name of the NAIA coach Kelly Howe mentioned?

The best coaches can flat out recruit and can coach. That is what we need regardless of UND connections. More importantly, is D1 experience, HC experience, and evidence of successes as their careers evolve. 

Experience doesn’t always equate to success. Some young individuals are really successful and some older guys never quite get the job done, etc., etc., etc.

I agree that experience is nice, but I think a history of success is most important. Winners win. It’s an intrinsic quality for some, although some can learn it, sure. In the case of Schmidt and Luke S., they likely have learned new things and made new connections, but why haven’t they shown more success? Same goes for Freund with UND (2011-2023) and Freuchte (2024). 

Based on getting someone who purely knows winning football, that also coincidentally happens to mean getting someone not recently (or ever) associated with UND football in the past.

I think we go heavy into the portal this year. Six to ten players. 

what do you want the new coach to do?

6-10 on defense alone.

[shep]

Are any of the current RS ready to make a difference next year?

[geaux_sioux]

I’d be happy with Baldwin or Caruso.

I agree. Both proven winners as a head coach, I take either one.

Dad played ball at UND and now is basically the Wes Rydell of central Wisconsin.  Likely has resources to potentially support the program financially, and could very well be reading this.  
 

But never mind the two crackpots tracking tail numbers right?
