Could be a three score loss though too, but I'm not going to write this one off as a loss quite yet. May change after seeing how we look against Iowa State the week before. Quote

Not going to bash to the level of saying he does nothing, but he isn't taking us to the next level. But as a guy who enjoys a paycheck, I'd take the money if they kept giving it to me too. 1 Quote

Too nice; nervous guy vibes rub off on his teams, and he just wont retire… Bubba's buddies are partially responsible for the current state of the program and will never see the light (but hey, he bleeds Sioux green). The main responsibility however is the AD who thinks so highly of Bubba and is so happy with our program he has extended him twice. Nothing will change here. 1 Quote
Parkers Pros Posted May 5 Posted May 5 I don’t think Danny is or was going to be “the guy”. He thought they all would be fired after one more average season and didn’t have the belief that they would be able to deliver a better season. I liked Danny personally thought he was a nice man. And although I understand the opportunity, abandoning the kids you recruited to coach a division rival is a s$!tty thing to do. Bubba got extended for 3 reasons. He had a playoff run, he beat NDSU, and the new OC. Mostly the third. They want to see what they have there. Remember this, the games we lost were as much about downright poor or lackluster offense as defense and that is Danny. UNI for instance. Let’s see what kind of juice the new OC can bring. 1 Quote

In today's football world, there's a lot of abandonment going on. Danny was named Associate Coach a year ago. Unless the title is completely meaningless, most thought he was the heir to Bubba. He left when it became apparent that the heir wouldn't be taking over for quite awhile. I highly disagree with the notion that the O was as bad as the D. Did you see the playoff game? The D had 2 stops all day. I met the OC and he seems like a good guy and from what I read from Tom Miller he may have a more intense style that is needed at UND. Whatever happens this year, the one who needs to take responsibility if things go bad is the AD as Irish pointed out above. 1 Quote

Kab Posted May 5 Posted May 5 If players buy into bubba and the new coaches like some on Sioux sports do the team is doomed this year. for players sake give them a chance looking forward to the QB race and see if defense has some new blood and how the strength and conditioning coach gets players better 3 Quote
SiouxFan100 Posted May 5 Posted May 5 Yes, there has been some changes this year. Hopefully successful changes. 1 Quote
