Bison Head Football Coaches

AAAAAARRRRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH! This man almost single-handedly destroyed Bison football. He was nothing but a Tim Brewster.

He beat UND in the first Bison/Sue game I ever attended. For that, he will always have my respect.

I thought there was ban on this political Bullshit on BV, but since you took a shot, I'll take mine: I feel the same way about Killiary..... where in the hell are the mods ?????

My post wasn't political. It was comparing two mumbling, bumbling fools.

BTW, I'm not a Democrat so no need to be so thin-skinned.

Had we not been screwed out of a home playoff game in 2000 and had to play on kitty litter with a 3rd string QB, Bob Babich's legacy would be much different. I've never understood all the hate for him. As was said, scholarship reductions lead to UND rising and UNC was a powerhouse. During Babich's time at NDSU, UNC won 2 national championships and UND won one. Maybe his era of NDSU football doesn't look as pretty because the competition got better. Just something to think about.

Correction: UNC national championships were in '96 and '97, so only one occurred during Coach Babich's time.

I didn't start it.

That didn't fly when I was a kid, and it doesn't fly with mine either. Don't know why it should work here.

haha that was my first bison sue game also........never forget the onside kick to start the second half then the guy running around with the flag that said bobs got balls.

Wacker brought in the veer and set up the Bison for the 80s run. He had enthusiasm that was infectious...and was a winner.

Babich recognized talent, he had some amazing athletes all across the board (QB's not so much) so I don't understand all the dislike for him on here...had Babich known how to recruit quarterbacks, I strongly believe he would have had a national championship.

QB's like Steve Walker?

I don't have any problem with BB. I will say that I do remember as a student when he left being glad because I thought he needed to go at that time, but put me in the camp that will always believe if it wasn't for the kitty litter we'd have won the title in 2000 even with the 3rd string QB because Lamar Gordon.

That was the year wasn't it? Didn't we lose three quarterbacks to injury?

We lost two in one game to Nebraska Omaha in the quarterfinals...

Yes...and if memory serves me they were both ACL injuries. Babich had a championship-caliber team that had some bad luck.
