  • I give up, and no one can blame me. I've tried to be a good Miner fan but we're jinxed and for some reason we will never become a good football school. The AD should fire Dismal now by just demoting him and not outright firing him. This may push Dismal to quit, heck anyone can do the same stinking job.

    I was really impressed with the Oregon O-coach. He had the Ducks running on all 12 cylinders and whooped the ByWho Coogers, sic. I'm sure that the O coach would love to prove to someone that he can head coach.

    Nope.  I can no longer blame anyone who can't do it anymore... :/

  • Dimel is an absolute disgrace of an offensive coach!  That was the worst play calling I have ever seen.  Senter needs to rip the offense away from him or fire him.

  • As I previously said, I'm done watching Dimel ball and didn't watch this one, thank goodness.
    I see we got 54 total yards rushing.  I guess Dimel is being influenced by Aaron Price in his play calling.

    Last year people were complaining that Dimel wouldn't open the offense up, and I thought he wanted to but couldn't rely on his QB in an open offense.  This year he's committed 100% to passing all the time.  I now think he just has no clue


    To get me back (not that anyone cares):

    1.  Let Senter go.  He has obviously contributed nothing positive.

    2.  Hire a hungry up and coming AD either from a smaller school or a highly regarded assistant who
         a)  has a history with similar schools -- not private with a committed alumni base (Senter was a dumb hire)
         b)  commit to football success, fundraising and community outreach with relentless focus.

    3.  Commit to paying what it takes to get quality coaching staffs
         a)    Coaching candidates must have been a head coach with a good track record of success
         b)    Head coaches manage the program, they are not coordinators


    I'd be open to hiring the entire NDSU coaching staff.  They are more competitive against FBS schools than we are and would kick our asses tomorrow.

    I'd be open to this idea in a heartbeat but...UTEP has never been known to have any common sense in their hierarchy. I doubt that the president gives a flying heck what their fans go through every year. She's just our coaching staff...earning a paycheck and since sports is a "yeah, we have to play sports ordeal" they aren't interested in getting winning sports programs. Heck, if I remember right this fb coach is getting what, 750k for lousy football? We can't even call it mediocre, it sucks golf balls.
