Popular Post TheFlop Posted March 2, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted March 2, 2020 Who better to carry the torch of continued mediocrity into the future?

Big Green Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 How many years did he have left? He was a good step in the right direction, but seems like we need someone different to take the next step. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowboys5xsbs Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 So well are going into the new league with the same mediocre bs. What a disappointment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was a good step in the right direction, but seems like we need someone different to take the next step. I believe he had two years left, 2020 and 2021 by reading it, and they extended it two more years. Seems like they could have waited one more year before granting an extension. Only positive I can see from granting it now is for recruiting it takes lessens doubt of head coaching change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a little confused why it's called a 4 year extension (maybe because it's 4 more seasons from now?), but his initial contract was through the 2021 season, so an additional 2 years, by my math.

Dustin Posted March 2, 2020 Author Share Posted March 2, 2020 Bubba wasn't quite as old as I thought he was, but this deal should take him to retirement (hopefully). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who would have ever thought that extending a .500 coach while your rival school is getting carpel tunnel from putting NC rings on would not be popular with the fan base?

I suppose you think Brewster should get a contract extension too? I think Chaves made a mistake here. Let's see us do something in the post-season before we start giving out contract extensions.

Ranger Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 So....UND doesn’t care about its football program? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WiSioux Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 Wow.... Just a few short months ago we were debating whether or not he'd be fired... Now they're hired him for an additional two years, four total. I did not see that coming. I honestly don't see what he has done to deserve this deal especially with two years remaining in his contract. It's time to put up, no excuses.

Hawkster Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 WOW. I was wondering how we'd afford Bubba's buyout after this year and now Chaves does this. There was no reason for this, it's not like Bubba was going to go anywhere. And the fact that he won't ever go anywhere might have been proof that he was UND caliber coaching material either. Get ready for 4 more years of piss poor football. Sorry, but that's what it is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irish Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 We need to write Chaves and tell him what our expectations for Sioux Football are and how disappointed we are. He clearly doesn't get it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
