Welcome back HC Polasek

And who can forget when Gene Taylor resigned to go to Kansas State, and the emotion-filled press conference. President Bresciani was at his side and Gene pretty much broke down with reddened eyes. Who can blame him for going to K-State but he still was sad to leave. Everything he did was with his heart and soul. We will never, ever get an A.D. like him. M.L. pales in comparison. I will admit Gene was a tough act to follow but that does not mean his successor had to be an abysmal failure.

Gene left to go to Iowa

If I’m Coach P, the first player I’d be talking into stayin would be CP, then EG, but I pretty sure CP is portaling.

Rebuilding, not reloading.

Mrs Larsen, please don't post on Bisonville! ADML has done a great job fundraising but none of our sports are in a better place. He is not and was never the guy who had the vision to get us into FBS.

Quick story...I was a student at NDSU during the transition. The day that the Big Sky turned us down for a conference invite I ran into Gene Taylor at the copy shop in the union. We were both waiting to get something printed so we briefly chatted. His eyes were red and you could tell he'd had a rough day. He just had the look of somebody who'd had their heart broken. I asked him something along the lines of "what now for NDSU" and he responded that he was convinced that NDSU would be a huge success in DI and that it was his job to ensure the big sky regretted their decision. Boy, did he ever. I've never gotten that kind of passion from ADML and have always felt that he wasn't the big vision guy.

Gene Taylor is right up there with Klieman in terms of being once in a generation type hire. Gene was super approachable - he remembered MY name for some dumb reason, I'm literally nobody with really zero to give NDSU other a few dollars of support.

So why is Polasek not on the list for the Wyoming job?

New Sheriff in town, wants his own crew I'd imagine.
Their loss, our gain.

Why wasn't he the sheriff pilgrim?

Welcome back Coach Polasek! I will be very anxious to hear his presser and whether or not he views this as a rebuild or reload. With all of the seniors and the potential portalling, it has the feel of a rebuild. I think Bison Nation will be somewhat patient, but if SDSU continues to roll, it will be a pressure cooker.

Hire a DC that teaches/coaches tackling not hugging. So tired of this upper body tackle technique instead of taking the legs out. Also, is it good tackling technique to dive at runners ankles? Our D line is unathletic.

Maxwell Woods just flipped to SDSU and SDSU also offered the Fargo North kid. Jacks raiding the Bison recruiting class. Polasek better shore up the recruits.
