They did it for the University President position.  It is BS if they don't release the finalists.  If they don't release the names, IMO it just because they don't want to take heat for screwing up, again.  We need to know this information, so we can HOLD our AD accountable.

I don’t think you released them.  Only hurts you the next time around.

I didn’t see NDSU release any names re: the Polasek hire?

Got a suspicious plane coming from Indianapolis

I didn't realize that when I signed up for my nameless/faceless account that I now held the power to hold a university AD accountable for decisions he makes for the job he was hired for!  Let the guy do his job, if he hires a dud he'll be held accountable by his boss.  I can guarantee you that nobody at UND wants to make the wrong hire and will certainly interview the qualified candidates that are interested in the job and hire the one that interviews the best.  Most names being thrown around here all make sense, but they need to be interested in the job and then interview well to earn the job.  Not our place to hold an AD accountable for his hire, that's the job of their boss.  Support the new hire and the program regardless of who we felt was the best candidate.

The AD has hired quite a few duds.  When is he going to be held accountable?

Chaves has a very poor track record of hiring coaches. That is why people are skeptical.

Understood and I don't deny that.  I just found it comical that there is any sense of power to hold him accountable from people who post on a fan site.  Unless we are paying his checks we have no pull.  Can only hope he makes a great choice and support the guy who is hired.

I think we all know we aren't responsible for holding his feet to the fire.

We are all just sick and tired of the mediocrity and underachieving.

Vince Kehres probably in the mix.

Did Caruso or Joe Woodley apply? Great records, but are either interested?

Re: Woodley there was definitely some suspicious flight activity from Des Moines to Fargo yesterday.

I don’t think Chavez could be that dumb to fly him in to fargo

@Cratter where you been lately? Working side by side with TM to break the real scoop??

I guess Chaves is doing it old school style.

Especially if there's no announcement Friday and the longer this drags on.

Post job opening. 

Do interviews.

Pick a coach.

Which means I guess he "didn't have his guy."

Caruso has a big lead in that poll. So I'm hopefully he gets it.

[MNHawk]

The lack of an announcement could point to Bolte or Woodley being the guy. They don’t want a distraction a day or two before their playoff games.

Getting it right is more important than having it done quickly.

Problem is when you take your time and get it wrong

I think Kelly was picking him up there and putting on the hard sell on the drive to UND.  
 

flight diverted to Fargo due to inclimate weather.

Not good

There’s a UND pilot on my flight, should I ask if there’s any rumblings amongst the pilots?

Not a bad idea at all.  The NetJet guys might have some inside scoop.
