Looking ahead... Who's after Klieman?

[KTF]

I don't believe that Kleiman will leave anytime soon. My thought process is all an AD/president needs to do is look at Bohl. He was winning like crazy here but has yet to develop that same program level as he did here. The prospective schools will look long and hard at that and say Bohl/Kleiman are a product of the system that is NDSU. They will realize that no matter how hard they try, they won't have the same success. It is a culture/community backing and it indeed is very special.

I do believe he will leave in the future but that is a ways down the road.

NDSU head coach Chris Klieman announced his retirement today, 3 days after leading his Bison to their 26th national championship in the NCAA Division 1 title game, defeating #2 ranked University of Houston in Tampa, 42-12. Klieman retires as the winningest football coach in history, measured in national titles. Klieman guided the Bison to their 7th NCAA Division 1 title, following the formation of the new Division 1 in 2025, when the P5 left the NCAA to form their own league. A steady hand at the helm of the powerhouse Bison since 2014, Klieman turned down multiple offers at more prestigious schools, instead choosing to stay in a community he and his family had grown to love, churning out championships and NFL caliber players. His replacement, stalwart coordinator and former player Luke Bacon, will be introduced as head coach at a news conference Tuesday.

Giving up 12 points to Houston? Its obvious the Klieman has lost the team and was mailing it in, waiting for retirement. Thank god Luke Bacon is taking over. Hey guys, how long until someone comes and steals coach Luke?

It seems silly for you to think for him and assume his goal to is to retire in Iowa. You know nothing about him. Maybe he wants to retire in Siberia or Arkansas.

It's also silly to assume his goal is to coach at Iowa State. Money would be great but the last time a head coach there had a career winning record was the mid 1970s.

And Kliemans 51. Maybe he never wants to retire. Maybe he cant wait to retire. Maybe he could afford to retire now if he wanted to. It's just silly assuming anything

Geesh, all he said is that ND and IA are nice places to retire IF he wants to retire "at home". How could you possibly be this triggered at the thought that someone might think that it is a mere possibility that Kliemen might want to retire someday, and if he does, it is a possibility of retiring in ND or IA.

Goodness- you chastising people for merely speculating about our coaching situation over the long term is the equivalent of those who chastise other Bison fans for being too confident on Bisonville going into a game against USD.
