Dane Jackson named head coach

[siouxweet]

Per the same drunk guy I saw at Judy's and Joe Black's last night the assistants should be Smaby, Fohr and CSC along with Bryn as GM.

Haven't heard many of these stories over the years thankfully. When I was in school in the mid and late 80's they were more frequent.

At one point the Hockey team and Football team were both banned from going out by their coaching staffs. I remember a pretty good brawl at The Bridge one night. The Hockey team put a pretty good beating on the football squad. 

We had a couple skirmishes at our house with a few football players who couldn't behave themselves at our All Campus parties.

I remember Russ Parent getting in a fight with a running back from the football team that resulted in russ going through the front window and landing in the yard with a chunk of glass in his back.  12 stitches later they were banned from partying with each other

Are we being punk’d?? You took a hockey class where Jackson showed up, sometimes, and he gave you the same advice I give my 10-year-old & his team at his squirt practice?? And you think that qualifies him as a coach to take over one of the most historically successful college hockey programs in the country?

Now I better understand how David  Koresh was able to convince all those people down in Waco he was right. 🤯

You remind me of the dude in that same class who wore a half visor and treated every day like it was his shot to show Hak what he could do and make the team - way too serious for the venue.

I remember that as well.

I think it was Bobyck who knocked out a football player out front of the SAE house and he banged his head on the sidewalk when he fell and had some pretty serious injuries. 

We had an all campus party at ATO one night and a few from the Football team were acting like jackasses throwing beer all over and me and a couple guys were having a discussion with a couple players that we were friends with and telling them they should probably leave when another player joined the discussion and then out of no where he head butts my buddy. I grabbed him and ran him 7 or 8 steps backward into the bar and next thing I know my head is ringing as the guy with the nickname "psycho" suckered me from the side  right in the ear. Good times, lesson learned, never get into a fight in the middle of a dark basement when you don't know who is who  with music blaring and probably 150 people over firecode. 

Saw that guy later sued the University and the NCAA due to concussions.

Similar deal at NDSU with the football team. Didn't see them at many house parties, granted we were in very different social circles lol.

Wow. Chavez really went hard on the interview trail. So vanilla of a choice. Not knocking Dane, but if build a house and it's declared condemned, why would you use the #2 in charge of the same company to rebuild you another house, and expect something different.

My point being, did they even put out any feelers????? If not, and they lose Sascha, I'll be the first to start up the fire Chavez and Dane thread.

Number one on the checklist is to keep your top guy

If the players that threatened to leave if Jackson wasn't hired leave anyway, then you know that UND athletics as a whole needs serious housecleaning.

Yeah. Been awhile since Joe Toth was beating up teenagers at house parties in north Fargo.

Good news.  James is a player who has gotten progressively better each season so I expect a very good senior year. He is also has speed, something I felt the team overall was lacking.

The point of firing coaches used to be about making players uncomfortable. Dane's hiring keeps them feeling good about who they are, are we really better? I'd prefer a team that hasn't seen the frozen 4 in 9 or 10 years play uncomfortable; we'll see.

[90siouxfan]

Lots of assumptions that players decided the coach, intriguing coincidence...

If Jackson has success running this program, it won't matter how he got the job.

If Jackson doesn't have success running this program, then Chaves can start updating his resume.

Add “entitled”, but perhaps that’s known or implied.

Thanks!  I was reading thru this thread trying to remember his name and wondering if my memory was still accurate this many years later!

"Dane articulated a very clear plan in the modern landscape of Division I athletics and we look forward to supporting him in achieving the goals that he has set out for the program."-AD

 

If somebody comes across these goals, please post them. Fans no doubt want to hear about his vision for the program.
