Fair point. But when you publicly come out emphatically for or against a preferred outcome for the next coach…without using that insider info to inform your conclusion…and then also withhold that information from your paid subscribers who instead learn info from fan forums…you can’t complain when your readers are disappointed and cry “bias”, can you?

If journalists can’t be trusted to fairly report the news and instead only report what the team approves as favorable, they SHOULD lose credibility and be considered entertainment not journalism. Suspect this is just the reality of GFK if you want any access to the team, and not Schloss’s preference. 

Miss the days when they reported at least some of the player scandals and inside challenges, vs this recent PR only spin on things. But those days are likely gone. 

Extra food for thought. Schloss is a good writer. Quite sad that he’s compromised his standards. All for what? Becoming a mouthpiece for und? For what? Having access to players, staff & admin? People see you as special or it’s an honor? So, He’s reduced to writing fluff columns. I cant imagine how he feels. He’s lost integrity, self esteem/worth, his image has taken a hit…..most of all. The impact of his cutting edge journalistic take, has lost alot of value. He even delayed informing his paid subscribers? Where’s his due diligence? Before attacking me for sharing these thoughts. Yes, i like schloss very much. He’s capable of so much more. We havent seen his best.  I do know about that of which i speak. I spent well over 2 decades in the media bus. Had business relationships w/athletics and other depts. Came away w/some gr8 friends too. Myself & others understood the game. It was pfp. Und would kick us to the curb, and not lose any sleep over it. Schloss, give us your best!!! I still love my school. Still love sioux hockey. Go sioux!!

Will Dane have time to hire all his guys?

Seems like the majority wants him to clear house on the bench, and based on how things have gone I'd say the majority will be disappointed. I hope we at least get a new assistant and see some sort of change to the bench other than DJ taking BB's job. I won't hold my breath.

Doubtful given hiring guidelines and timelines, unless he retains. 

At 0700 Monday there are no assistant positions posted.

Per source they are going to open it up to a national search and hire Simpson and goehring. Promote laducer

I thought a new coach to a program would just install his own assistants. So if Jackson wants to bring his own guys, the university would still have to post those jobs & his new guys would have to go through the formality of applying for those jobs?

Still trying to wrap my mind around keeping Goehring. This team needs an infusion of fresh ideas & the new coach runs it back with the same crew, at least that's what it sounds like at this point.

If Jackson announces at his introductory press conference that everything will remain exactly the same going forward, then all this was a big waste of time and money.

Per source chyzk to be gm

Idk, wanted to see how they were and if he wanted to keep them. Different situation than what UND has.
