We don't want our coaches here long term

The Bison seem to move their coaches on to FBS and the NFL, even the ones they didn't want any more.   We move our coaches on to "Senior Positions".   That says a lot about the state of the program.

Trust but Verify.   We'll see how things go by the end of the season.

So far I like his aggressiveness in recruiting. It may take a couple of years to see playoff success, but it will be worth the wait.

Good move for him. RB coach at ISU. He saw the Bubba debacle wasn't going to be worth the time and effort.

This is a great move for jake. He’s doing what he needs to do. I believe the iowa state cyclones fball staff is very young. I hope jake has incredible success as a coach. Like to see grand forks kids make a name for themselves.Leaving after 1 season w/ndsu will not hurt him at all.  Go sioux

He is a Grand Forks kid, and he also is “Jake the Snake”. With all that said, Bubba going into 2024 was a sinking ship. I can only partially blame “the snake” for briefly getting on and then quickly jumping off.

His dad is also a legendary coach so he’s got the bloodlines for it.

$$$$$$ from $500,000 to $2,000,000 each.  The system is broke.

As soon as I hit submit I figured out $$$$$ was probably the answer.  Those are big numbers.  The system is broken for sure.  Don't know the answer but I think at some point there have to be 2 year contracts or something for players collecting NIL money.

Good for them. Take that money and run!

Agree, good for them! Not sure how kids being compensated for their talents makes the system broke.

I'm fine with kids getting paid but still think the system is broken.  The NCAA men's bb had all No. 1 seeds make the final 4 for the second time ever.  15 of final 16 teams were seeded 6th or higher.  Any smaller teams that have a good year have their kids gone by the next year.  Some HS seniors are taking it in the shorts as a lot of coaches are only interested in transfer kids. I talked to a D1 volleyball commit last week who had her scholarship pulled because the Atlantic 10 school decided to go with all transfer kids.  

My opinion - if it is going to be pay for play, needs to be some hooks like pro sports with contracts that include the number of years.   Has to go both ways as schools/collectives and players make that commitment.

The Siouxperman8 very preliminary clause - Let's say you sign with UND for $100k/year for 2 years and decide to leave after 1 year for more $$, you have a buyout clause that pays back some portion of the first $100k to the collective.  The new school collective can pay that for you if they want you bad enough.
