Bohl's Recipe for Success

Re: Bohl's Recipe for Success

Unless a player can match the 5 game ending/deciding interceptions that Mertens threw his first year, I don't see any way a player can feel the heat from the fans that Nick got.

That could spell alot of anger towards Bohl that won't be deflected by a player. Could be very enjoyable to watch from the outside.

The team I saw at the Marker game last year could not stop the run when they needed to, seemed to panic as soon as they got behind, and did not have a coherent offensive scheme that I could see. Hard to play QB on a team like that. You saw a lot more of them, for sure, but was the amount of ire heaped on this poor kid proportional to the team's overall problems? Would Ryan Berry or Thomas O'Brien have made them contenders?

We were just straight up awful last year and our defense was much worse than our offense. Few QBs in FCS history could have made that team good.

Two years ago, we lost 5 games. Nick threw an interception with 3 minutes or less in all 5 losses and only one loss was by more than a TD (UNI, which still could have been a win with the Bison driving before the INT and UNI completely unable to do anything offensively at the end of the game). He was personally responsible for the Wyoming loss, WIU loss, and SDSU loss in the eyes of most fans. He threw terrible picks in the worst possible situations. That team WOULD have been a playoff team with a slightly better QB.

A few other tips from Coach Bohl:
Land a popular, attractive wife to enhance your status as a local celebrity. It increases job security.
Show football recruits trophys and newspaper clips from the Bison's glory days in D-II.
Avoid playing UND. Play USD instead. Less chance of being upset and humiliated.

#1 is good advice for all men

#2 At least they had some glory days in D-II

#3 You won't play us, but they will. Think it would be an upset?

Add #4: Start a rivalry with Deleware

BTW: SDSU had glory days in D-2 (9 titles in 15 years when there was no national championship to play for). Those titles occurred in precisely the same place as NDSU's: The past.

What are u thinking? Using logic and facts in the 'smack' forum against Udot and NDSU posters is not acceptable. But....reps anyways

No beef about #1 and #4 (it's DelAware by, the way, for you University of South Dekota guys.)....

#2 is not worth comment

But on #3, NDSU-USD is a play-in game... winner gets University of Sioux Falls...

May I suggest a couple of additions:

1b. Try and stop SDSU
4. Spin it like it was the plan all along and everything is falling into place.
