Hawkster Posted Sunday at 01:48 PM Share Posted Sunday at 01:48 PM 13 minutes ago, Longtime fan said: Agreed We can complain all we want on this board …… I have done so nearly week for 8 years… but that goes nowhere. We are small number of diehard fans with a small voice on a message board. I think the only people with “pull” to make a change is alumni and donors. Chavez could care less what is being said on a message board but when it hits the pocket …..then and only then would he consider a change . But right now the diehards are still attending games and bubba is cheap. Money coming in added to a cheap coach =Chavez is living the dream. He feels no heat or consequences until alumni make the calls and the money starts drying up. The problem is, hockey has troubles too it would appear. Chaves will be under more pressure to fix problems over there and it will cost a lot more money on the hockey side. No way will Chaves do anything about football. Those that want Chaves gone, remember that Muss was hired by the interim right after Buning was moved out. Do it right this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the coach is the problem (some say the failures are entirely on him), then a new coach is all that’s needed. I believe we aren’t that far from having the personnel capable of winning so I don’t want to lose guys to the portal. Too often, teams lose a number of their best or potentially best players to the portal, so yeah, I think it’s a bad thing. Losing the next 3 games is also a bad thing. Regardless of coaching change, these players need to play up to their full potential and establish a “winning culture”. It’s not easy once you accept losing as OK for any reason. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will say that leadership and direction from the coaching staff is critical in developing a winning culture. Players leave every 2 to 5 years no matter what, and new players come in. It is even more frequent now in the era of the transfer portal. The one constant is the coaching staff, and I think developing and maintaining a winning accountable culture is significantly dependent on the head coach and his actions and message. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Bubba has replaced every coach on his staff at least once, some twice.....the only remaining constant is Kyle "Bubba" Schweigert 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sioux24/7 Posted Sunday at 05:32 PM Share Posted Sunday at 05:32 PM I just don’t know who we’d hire, not that that’s my job but I am interested in potential targets. I know Todd Hoffner is a popular name but he’s almost as old as Bubba. I’d prefer a young up and comer. I mean I think I’ve been clear that my top vote would be Danny but not sure that would be super popular. Otherwise, we need fresh blood.

Those guys do a nice job with a podcast to generate interest and support of the program. Although they don’t take a negative public stance, you are mistaken if you don’t think they are frustrated and upset with our lack of success over the past 10yrs. To bash the our athletic programs publicly hurts our program and subsequently can adversely affect recruiting, and support both financially and otherwise. That isn’t the purpose of their podcast. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
