He might just stay at NDSU a few more years and call it good depending on his spending habits. North Dakota/Iowa(if he retires at home) aren't exactly expensive places. He's not far from retirement age if he's disciplined.
    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

    The Bison Way is the only way to consistently win championships. It has been that way for a long time and it needs to stay that way FOREVER! Any new HC had better adhere to the Bison Way or else. (no purple)

    I do. Why can’t NDSU be someone’s destination job? And can one only be “hungry” enough to coach at NDSU if they aspire to move on? Maybe that is a question asked during the interview process.. “You will be strongly considered if you view us as a stepping stone to that which you perceive as bigger and better opportunities. Then and only then will we know you stay hungry.”

    Also don't want to assume that he wants to disrupt his kids life again (aren't 2 still in HS?) or maybe they have told him it doesn't matter if it means a bigger inheritance in 30 years?

    I agree in theory but it rarely works that way. Even at the highest levels, whether it be sports, business or whatever, every position is temporary.

    I would assume Klieman has had conversations with his family about his chosen profession and what that means for their living situation.

    He is from there and spent most of his youth, college, and professional years there. Why would it be silly to think he might return to live there once he is done at NDSU? Arkansas and Siberia would be nice cheap places to live as qell.

    Dude, I'm just saying you dont know. One wouldnt have assumes a UNi guy would come to NDSU either.

    I know many people who grew up Fargo and spent most of their youth, college, and professional years here but wouldnt move back from California for any job.

    Discussing Kliemans goals is silly IMO

    No doubt... I'm sure he also takes their opinions too, just seems like he is a family man, stayed behind a couple years ago to watch his oldest son play senior night... That said 3-4-5 years they'll all be in college... That's when I think things could heat up. Thing is so far he hasn't ever been on a list even other than one or two?? Not to mention he's been here only 3-4 years and just got out from under the shadow of this isn't his recruits etc.

    Guess we'll see in a few years I think it'll start coming up.
