Join the Green and the Gold Collective to take Bison football to the next level. Starts at $10 a month
The Green and The Gold Collective is excited to announce our #DriveToFive membership campaign. The goal of this campaign is to get to 500 monthly members. Reaching this goal will help us provide financial support to NDSU student athletes, including every returning member of the football team that saw action on the field last year!

Maybe his point is, that you don't admit that losing a game is ok and that things are going to be just great, even if they are. The coach of any team would be better off just stating that things went wrong and that they have a lot to work on. Why don't you make it seem like one loss is ok, or even two, very simple, because people become complacent and it starts to settle into the minds of players that if one or two are ok then maybe two or three are ok once in a while, and then it snowballs to more over time. Sure, everyone knows a loss (or two) is going to happen no one denies that. And no one is being a team basher either and they are not jumping off the Bison bandwagon. Championship football programs stay champions because they always look for the weakest part of any team and always look to improve it year to year, game by game, and play by play. These fan forums are created so that fans can vent their opinions and ideas. So if fans point out areas that the team is not up to championship level in then so be it. NDSU has had fantastic success, should it just be accepted as an oh well moment if the football team has a nice year but does not win a championship but still goes with only 2-3 losses? As a former college player and now NDSU fan I just want to see the kids try there best and have fun while learning life lessons from their time at NDSU and on the team. But I also don't see a problem with constructive criticism about issues that the team has or how they can do things different. If you were a business owner would you be just as happy if you lost a large account due to employee's not doing their job well. Or if your branch manager had lack of skills in some areas would you not work on them with him to improve? Or would you not listen to your staff(or even entry level employees) if they had ideas of what was wrong and what you needed to work on to improve your company? The company I work for has a suggestion box and we don't have people jumping ship.
From the movie THE PROGRAM
Regent Chairman: This is not a football vocational school. It's an institute for higher learning.
Coach Winters: Yeah, but when was the last time 80,000 people showed up to watch a kid do a damn chemistry experiment? Why don't you stick the bow-tie up your ass?
This is a slight side track but....I was talking with one of my friends about this....... Wonder what everyone thought on Bisonville
Was Easton Stick the biggest prospect NDSU ever got?
I am talking about purely during high school recruiting battle was Stick the a biggest prospect NDSU has ever gotten. I know Carson Wentz was amazing but he didn't have offers that Stick did coming out of high school (Rutgers, Akron. Miami ) plus every power house in FCS. Is there anyone bigger?

I remember signing him was huge, but not because of his potential, but because of the coaching change.
Just about every year, we a “huge” get and many times due circumstances out of their control, the “huge” get never gets a chance to suit up in a Bison uniform.
Fortunately, Stick wasn’t one of those. I would put his signing up with guys like Emanuel, DeLuca and now Cox in that we heard they were good coming out of high school and lived up to their potential.
