Wonder how the team responds to this.  Can't remember if it was Klieman or Bohl that left before the season ended?  One of them answered his cell phone at practice and accepted the job if I remember right.  Maybe I dreamt that.  

Bohl for sure stuck around. I think Klieman did too.

Brian Kelly was eating dinner on a recruiting visit, stepped out to take a call, came back and kept eating.....then an hour later it broke he took the LSU job..per the kid's dad.

They both stuck around. When Bohl left it got a little weird at practice as far as communications and recruiting went since they had named Klieman the next coach. So you had two camps of Coaches. Bohl and those going with him and Klieman and those that were staying with him....but they managed.

This would be a fun problem to have.. would mean we have a coach that is being recruited to a better position and we were still in the playoffs..

I am hearing that the Coach NDSU is hiring is not currently on staff and of course the players want Roehl since they know him. Could be an interesting week.

If they hire externally isn't there a formal process they have to go through that takes time vs hiring internally is automatic?

You are thinking of UND.

NDSU seems to have that figured out.  Good on them.

This has Polasek written all over it.  Cain makes way too much money.  Maybe there's others out there?

Could definitely see that.

Nightmare start for Easton

[geaux_sioux]

Stick looks terrible. That NDSU offense still translate to the nfl or what?

[ChrisUND1]

Stick is awful!  Still, makes a lot of money to be awful. 

[Shawn-O]

Staley won’t survive this.  

[petey23]

Things could get interesting in Fargo over the next few days.

Might be a couple of sh!tstorms brewing.

Very strange move for Entz.....could it be, that he was told he will be replaced after the season?  That also seems odd.....not sure what to think about this news

Not strange at all. He found out through multiple conversations that he needed some FBS on his resume. Going to USC isnt a demotion. It will be a career builder. Hes a much better D coach than he is a HC.

Agree here. He never seemed to be a HC guy. Obviously a good d coordinator.

SDSU looks good early vs Albany 

[geaux_sioux]

Smashing them. Absolutely smashing them. Good luck to whomever meets them in Frisco.

[farce poobah]

SDSU 28-0 Albany (or is it the Washington Generals).

halfway through Q2

One downside to the regional games in the playoffs is that lousy teams like Albany can make it this far by playing lesser competition.

 

[SiouxFan100]

Just who is the “better” competition?

Albany should have played a MVFC team earlier.

I figured I should have checked who they beat to get here.

That is a good one.
