Nick Saban made a statement on GameDay today regarding the Ohio State fans calling for Day’s head, that seems appropriate for this thread.

I haven’t participated in this thread, but I don’t think anyone thinks we have an above average coaching staff, right? 

[Shawn-O]

Maybe Poolman can find us a hockey coach too?

UND is 22/64 in Pairwise at the semester break.  That’s not good.  Let’s see what they do about it.

Who else will state specific minimum ncaa tournament results goals over the years - I stated mine

[Oxbow6]

If you can't even be the #4 seed in your own backyard regional (again) not sure how one can keep glossing over what's happening with this program.

Resource wise it’s an embarrassment of riches, that’s what makes it all the more frustrating 

[SiouxFan100]

I don’t see how any objective person can say UND has been successful since 2016

I have to say I like fiery Berry.  One could say thanks to Larson for poking the Berr-y!

That's what we need more of. It will rub off on the players.

Remember all the regionals where we’d complain that BC had it made by having the regional in their backyard, Worcester, seemingly every year…so UND set up the same arrangement in Fargo and now we never even participate?  Pepperidge Farm remembers…

The contract expires after 2025-26. 

I believe (after the Bubba situation) Berry is coaching for an extension. 

He's fortunate that Chaves has other distracting issues right now (Soc, WBB).

I think 4 Penrose Cups out of the last 5 years ('20, '21, '22, and '24) is being successful.

Remind me again, what is the post-season record during those very same years, obviously excluding 2020?

Wash. Rinse. Repeat.

[The Sicatoka]

KG and Smaby top the list then Keane and Simmer.

[SIOUXELEVENS]

Smaby, Raboin, Karl G, St.Clair

Is there a reason nobody thinks Jackson would be a candidate?

Desire for a generational shift.

Hiring Sandy now would be like hiring Sauer, Lucia, or Gino after they had shot their wads.    Except for the obvious fact that gfhockey wasn’t engaged to those guys.

Wait, so Berry shouldn’t be on the hot seat because of his post-season performance but we’re going to judge Sandelin on the last season or two?  Seems like he’s had a pretty good 2011-2024 all things considered.

Their fall from national contender to 2nd last in the conference isn't something that should keep you as a head coach. Maybe next year he gets them out of the bottom, or they finish in the bottom 3. I wouldn't want him to be a head coach at UND like gfhockey keeps thinking he should be.
