They concentrate on getting a few coaches from the main seasons in progress (hockey and WBB this week) and sprinkle in minor sport coaches to fill it. Bubba will likely speak after the next signing day. Had fan luncheon at Suite Shots in Fargo on Tuesday. Had Sather, Vahrenkamp, Boysen, and Goehring. Quote
90siouxfan Posted January 12, 2024 Posted January 12, 2024 I have only a tiny knowledge and interest in Chaves or football, but him coming from Eastern Washington, my thought was he would be good for the football program? So why is he seem to be "quiet quitting"? what happened at EWU? Did he see something here that pushed him to this strategy? 1 Quote

The under lying reason is to bring outside OC giving that person that will be some continuity in the program. This would guarantee at least two or three year commitment. Second if he doesn’t we loose players and have terrible season go backwards loss in revenues and having back to back seasons limbo could destroy the program even worse then 2013 year and then to get somebody to take over the program may set the program back even further. I believe Chaves wants continuity and having program maintains upper quality level with ability to get to championship level and within long-term goal of staying in budget. I wonder what will be reaction from people on this board if this happens. I don't like losing players, but we don't have anyone so good that keeping them justifies a coaching extension. If we hire the right guy, they can get their own high end players. 2 Quote

Do you really want to welcome an employee back who bailed on your institution? That said, I wish him well. Danny has no obligation to stay at UND and more than any other coach in any other program. The guy has a career and a family to think about first and foremost. If he thinks this move make the most sense, what's the problem? I think most people would be will to take a lateral move if not a demotion, IF it paid more money and IF they thought it would lead to bigger and better opportunities down the road. Did Dale burn bridges at UND because he left for Southern Illinois? People were disappointed, but did anyone really never want the guy back? Do we really expect our staff to be as complacent in their roles as the University seems to be with athletic expectations? If making a career move like this truly burns a bridge with the University, then the University needs to reevaluate their leadership and hiring process (probably need to do that anyway). I'd gladly have Danny back, IF he is the best qualified guy for the job. If there is someone else out there who we think could really make a splash then I'd take him. 1 5 Quote

O-Line coaches have a base belief and strong working knowledge of blocking concepts in run/pass game. O-Line, especially Center has in game checks and their O-line Coach teaches them. O-Line coaches are involved in schematics with OC I believe in most cases. (If we can't block it, we can't run it). O-Line coach knows realistic timing of each play. Playing time helps anywhere from a little to quite a bit. It's never hurt a coach having a ton of playing time. But do they know when to call a triple reverse? 2 Quote

Too early for solid predictions in my estimation, as don’t even know Fall roster or coaching staff at this point, but just curious since you’re kinda a 99% glass full kind of guy for UND… I’ll just say that at this early juncture - with the right to change predictions based on upcoming staff/roster changes - that I see a 6-6 season upcoming in 2024. Of course, I certainly hope that leads to a house cleaning. Without know the OC, who else we'll lose in the portal and who we'll gain? No different than you, not going to throw what would be a random guess out there. I think the defense needs to get a couple more guys (or see significant improvement from the ones on campus), we need to retain our offensive talent (have concerns about 1-2 players at the moment) and get an OC that will be able to use said talent and work with two young QB's. The schedule isn't going to be a cakewalk with 3 of this year's 4 semi-finalist plus an FBS game. The conference road schedule is decent, so that is helpful given road issues. Could be as low as 5, could be as high as 11 (assuming everything possible goes right). A ton of variance out there 7.5+ months before the season starts. 1 1 Quote
Oxbow6 Posted January 12, 2024 Posted January 12, 2024 While I have appreciate the kelly green glasses optimism year after year I'd give this team a 5% chance to win 9 game or more next season.....and 5% is probably high. 2 Quote

nodak651 Posted January 12, 2024 Posted January 12, 2024 Not sure if this includes bonuses, but it looks possible that Danny made more at UND than Lujan did at SDSU. I think he expected Bubba to hand over the reigns, and he left because that didn't happen. Just a guess. Kinda think the move was more about UND than SDSU. https://openpayrolls.com/zachary-d-lujan-120421082 Quote
