UND Fan Posted November 2, 2022 Share Posted November 2, 2022 20 hours ago, UND Fan said: Don't think he got a raw deal other than we were unable to pay him what he received to move to SDSU! My statement above was incorrect. Bubba was named head coach between Christmas and New Years of 2013. In January, 2014, prior to Bubba completing his staff, Schleusner made the deal to move to SDSU (announced in early February). So.... he left due to the coaching change and (probably) not knowing if he would be retained at UND. Either way, he did make considerably more at SDSU.

Not that it matters, I don't think that part is accurate based on what I can find in the state salary databases, though I can't confirm 100%. Also, guessing by February, he probably knew he wasn't going to be on the staff or wasn't interested in the position he was offered. He was a solid coach and a good recruiter, not surprised to see he's continued to do well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sioux24/7 Posted November 2, 2022 Share Posted November 2, 2022 I don’t think this is popular amongst all (especially the crowd that would rather have someone with no connection to UND or even the area) but I’m all in on Freund being the heir apparent and I kind of think that may be the plan, although I have zero knowledge on that. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be ok with that too. Danny has a very peppy and upbeat personality and I think players would really love to play for him and buy in. Also, if that did happen I would hope it would happen immediately and not have to go through that 30 day window and watch a ton of transfers occur in the meantime. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right, my point though, is that most departures weren’t surprises. That means the roster management is an issue. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caden Denis has burned his shirt though I like what I'm seeing out of him. Hope they can keep getting him the ball more and more. Would be nice to have the reliable deep ball heading towards the playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nodak78 Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 Tom Miller has an article on Caden Dennis. Danny said he is very smart much like Bo and we are going to use Caden more down the stretch. Liking this. More weapons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sicatoka Posted November 4, 2022 Share Posted November 4, 2022 In the SDSU/NDSU game, SDSU had the better defense. NDSU defense was having trouble with angles and wrapping up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not for that dumb pass that got picked they would likely have hung 28 points on SDSU in the first half, and that is with NDSU's supposedly inferior offense to SDSU. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you did say....you don't even think Bubba would have the team ready to play/compete in that game. As in it would be a one sided game from the opening kickoff, we were tied at half. I'm not happy with the end result and final score....but our guys were ready to play.
