Since Curt approves, I am going to assume this is a good thing.

 

[chadly82]

I love it personally

 

[Cyclonepride]

Great for continuity. I will trust the process

Probably the best you could hope for due to circumstances. Players seem to love Mouser, so I’m guessing they are happy.

I feel like the assistant isn’t the guy CW was hinting at. But I could be wrong. It does show Pauly probably has a lot of influence on his he staff.

Its always nice to see some "new blood" with Campbell, as it happens so rarely, and Roehl seems like a great fit - a guy who has won a TON at NDSU and called some really prolific offenses

Roehl was essentially runner-up for the NDSU head coaching job that went to Tim Polasek (former OC there that went on to position coach at Iowa and OC at Wyoming). Was thought that he needed some experience in other programs since he's never been a head coach anywhere. Players absolutely loved him.

He works his tail off, should fit very well with Campbell and the staff.

He was a stud RB at NDSU. If you are interested in his playing days see the video, he's #40. Ran for 250+ yards against Minnesota during NDSU's transition to D1, also took a swing pass 80 yards in the same game.

I like this. Looking forward to the 2024 season! Go Cyclones!

Yeah, seems like a key add as a bit of a sounding board for Mouser.

I've seen OC's split between PGC and RGC usually as co-OCs, not with OC, PGC, and RGC. Is this another "OC by committee" type of an approach with Mouser with final say?

probably just extra titles to be able to pay guys a little more and hopefully not get poached right away

 

[JP4CY]

Just throwing a dart out there:
Feels like with Mouser+Roehl+Waters, we'll do a lot of power runs.

Yep, with the pieces we are bringing back this was always going to be a continuity hire. It's too late in the offseason to be switching up scheme, verbiage, etc.

 

[RezClone]

Could have resulted in a "bigger" hire. MUCH bigger.

This is kind of a false narrative:

Broomfield
Pauley
Poteat
Scheelhaase
Clanton
Langs
Roehl

Especially recently, hires have been from outside the family or elevated from within. Kratch is really the only exception.

The most interesting part is the linked article about how hard Eddie George had to work to get that guy to go there a few months ago. Wonder what happened?
