Coach Bergstrom defiantly in the Coach of the Year category
First year head coach, with an all new coaching staff offensively and only one defensive coach returning. He put a team together with what he had, without running out and grabbing Transfer-Portals athletes. He is building a program and culture that will not be picked to be in the middle of the pack next year.
At a minimum this year sharing the conference South title with playoff potential. Expectations have been exceeded in Winona and in the NSIC.
Not only did he build a program, but his culture of accountability involving the players in multiple community events, student/athletes participating at the local schools and FCA (Fellowship of Christian Athletes) with game day devotions. He is Faith, Family and Football and finally gives credit to his wife and the coaches wives for holding things together at home extremely humble individual.
He is a coach of the game on the field and a coach for life off the field.

Next week on the pod Tom and I will discuss these topics and we will offer our own votes (that don't count) for those spots..and then we will look back at how I did with my season preview and team predictions vs their actual record....probably not awesome..haha. We will also do a year end review and touch on each squad.

Mankato always has high expectations and they didn't go unbeaten like plenty of years past. Wayne....they were 7-4 last year..so 9-2 is better for sure and the playoffs are new to them here.
How about first year head coach Brian Bergstrom or maybe his DC (assistant)....seeing as Winona has only made the dance once in the last decade..?
I'm not sure SMSU gets any of the awards, being an under .500 squad..but maybe. I'm thinking some names like Alt at QB, Bohn at Wayne maybe..Thuro..etc. I think Marshall is a lock for the D..and maybe newcomer also..haha

COY Bergstrom for sure
The COY might be a split between Masters at Wayne and Bergy at Winona.
I believe the release is Wed..per the past.
