    Vigen has been QB coach for a while........some issues there too!

    I think his fair share is about 90%.

    My opinion is the offense actually peaked right around the Gopher win and has been a constant slide since then. The rest of that year it was constantly playing from behind. I honestly don't think it is all the OC's fault. I think alot of it has to do with personnel also on offense, especially the lack of playmakers at the WR position. I think that while the QB's can share the blame, they definitely aren't the only ones in the equation.

    I think Walker was just an exception to Bohl's norm QB. IMHO you could insert any other QB in for Walker and our passing offense would have been just as shaky then as it is now.

    Really disappointed where our passing offense is, and QB play right now.

    I withhold judgement on Vigen until after this upcoming season.

    Last year he had a young O-line and a young QB. Also our WR and TE other than Warren are average at best.

    With the two freshman stud WR's and Jensen with a year under his belt I EXPECT the offense to be a little more wide open and actually score some points!

    If the offense looks like this past season then it will be time to look for someone else.

    There is now doubt that the strong finish saved Vigen's rear end this season....we will know soon enough if it deserved to be saved.

    All I know is with Vigen as OC for NDSU the DC's job for an opponent just gets easier. The way NDSU wins is because of great defense or some player(s) stepping up with a great performance. Vigens' OC skills have never contributed significantly to a Bison victory. I also question his QB coaching skills since that area seems to struggle also.

    I can't believe he didn't go.back to qbs.

    Teams in mvfc love that he stays, they don't need to scout as hard, because they have all his.material already.
    Think about it, the big sky teams didn't , so we.looked fresh to them and beat them.

    Gotta change it up, our offense is Missouri state game bad at times
