With their unbalanced schedule it's tough to gauge, it's not a given, but Vigen walked into a football first school with great facilities, all he has to do is not screw it up.

I think it's more accurate to say Choate elevated the program and left Vigen in a very good spot. We won't know how good Vigen is for a couple years.

Poor wording on my part. Last fall at Fresno was his first head coaching job since interviewing for the head job at UND in 2013/14. He had not been a head coach since leaving Sioux Falls in 2009. While it obviously worked out for him, it was just a comment that he ended up continuing to climb as a coordinator instead of taking a head coaching job somewhere and going that route. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure he had many HC offers just didn't like any of them or wasn't a good fit at the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mentioned earlier that, when evaluating Bubba as a head coach, that budget and other constraints should be considered when doing so. Bubba is doing pretty damn well given the budget that he is dealt with, and if he's replaced, I think it's near impossible that we fill out the staff with equal or better talent than we currently have with an equal budget. It's impressive that Bubba has done as well as he has when guys like Holinka and Freund are paid less than pretty much every position coach at NDSU. https://infogram.com/college-1hd12yxl0vmqw6k 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt it. Collectively, our expectations stink as do our results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
