The cream is rising and the shaff is being left behind.
Which ones are still a viable option and which ones are on the scrap heap.
1) Klieman is head and shoulders the best. His team is fundamentally sound, the underclassmen are making an impact and I see no flaws in the coaching. This is year 4 for him and the team will be better next year than this year. He forces his will on the opposition and does not let up, this team resembles the culture of his NDSU teams.
2) Liepold 1 game behind KSU but now out of the conference playoff picture. This is year two but still needs refining; the foundation has been installed. Probably on the same trajectory as KSU. In two years this team will be in the conference title hunt on a perennial basis.
3 & 4) I think I will pass, the opposing teams have figured them out and not impressed.
