Looking forward to a story the Herald's apparently developing on coaching salary variations in the MVFC, and also the motivations involved in some recent moves. Quote

Didn't mean to hurt your feelings by posting your own comments, but my apologies. Mediocrity is definitely a concern. Expectations matter. Sure, mediocrity is denied verbally and in writing, including by yourself on this forum, but it is implied with everything else being done. Actions speak louder than words. Quote
Mama Sue Posted February 7, 2024 Posted February 7, 2024 So….reading some social media posts on another page. Many comments about the status of college football. Here are a few comments… “The NCAA is now powerless. They have lost control with the transfer portal and NIL.” ”A program can win a natty among accusations of cheating. Everyone. cheats now; we just have to cheat better.” the best: “Success with honor is now gone.” well, if the shoe fits wear it. Quote

Pretty sure every A.D. in the conference rotates through these positions. 1 Quote
forksandspoons Posted February 7, 2024 Posted February 7, 2024 I’d rather have Chaves focusing on UND instead of national committees 4 Quote
nodak651 Posted February 7, 2024 Posted February 7, 2024 From what I can tell, Freund had a signed contract to coach at UND this coming year for 104K. SDSU is paying him 105K. I think UND tried to counter after that, but I don't know how much more they were willing to pay. SDSU's new OC will be making 115K this year, only 10K more than Freund. Pretty clear Freund didn't leave because of money. However, more money could have probably prevented serious talks about coaching as a SDSU position coach from developing. Probably wouldn't have even take that much more either, if they would have been willing to pay him what he was worth from the get-go. Also, Landry was hired at 100K. So that actually kind of pisses me off if UND was only willing to pay Freund 4K more than a replacement. UND under valued Freund, clearly. 4 Quote
UND1983 Posted February 7, 2024 Posted February 7, 2024 Money wasn't the reason he left. Big picture, its been laid out very well by plenty of people 3 Quote
UND1983 Posted February 7, 2024 Posted February 7, 2024 I am confident that UND could've offered him 130K and he was still gone Quote
