I'm not sure why you'd be up in arms about a "hand-picked" candidate. That's how pretty much how hiring an assistant coach goes. They will still get applicants that don't have previous connections with but guessing when you're job is on the line, you're going to go with someone you feel you can put your trust in rather than a completely unknown commodity. Expand I agree with you and, as such, I am not "up in arms". We said the same thing using different words. Quote It appears it won’t be anything close to a true external hiring process. I expect “hand-picked” selections from Bubba and Freund. Along with the Freund promotion, we’ll see if this strategy actually ends up being good or bad as time goes along ... Expand If the job listing is not posted by now, then it is not a "true" external hiring process. It is what it is. Also, there is no prior history of this arrangement, so we obviously have to wait and see how this all plays out with Freund as OC. Quote

In addition, people are worried that the public records requests in ND limits the quality of the candidate pool for jobs like this. Does anyone really think that anyone worth their salt won't have a job like this on their radar if they are interested in this type of position? I'm sure Freund or Bubba would take their call, and if they can't figure out how to get in contact with them, I'd have to wonder how well they would do at recruiting student athletes. I think it's highly unlikely that Freund and Bubba will have their best candidate just apply for a job and make themselves subject to an open records request, without reaching out to Freund and Bubba first. The public job posting is a formality. 3 Quote

nodak651 Posted November 30, 2018 Posted November 30, 2018 Good thing our coaches don't relay on this for recruiting players, and they actually go out and find them instead of waiting for them to apply. Quote

Expand I feel like Freund would be naturally attracted to a guy like King, assuming Schleusner, Landry, and Dressler say no. I'd add King to Geaux_Sioux's list, and I would be happy with any of them. I think there are some great candidates here. For OL, what do you guys think of Tim Prinsen (Edmonton Eskimos)? Surprised to see a guy like that on the list. What do the position coaches in the CFL make? There is some decent size in Canada - maybe he would appeal to some of the Canadian recruits, and help to keep them from de-committing. Quote
UNDBIZ Posted November 30, 2018 Posted November 30, 2018 What does the typical D2 OC get paid? Would they leave that to get paid $55-60k as a position coach at UND? Quote
