Wasting no time finding a replacement for departing coach Craig Bohl, NDSU is set to name Defensive Coordinator Chris Klieman as the team's next head football coach.

According to GoBison.com,

Klieman, 46, is completing his third season at North Dakota State and his second as the defensive coordinator.  He joined the Bison staff in March 2011 as defensive backs coach following a nine-year stay at Northern Iowa where he was the defensive coordinator, co-defensive coordinator and secondary coach from 2006-10 under head coach Mark Farley and 1991-93 under then head coach Terry Allen, who is now at Missouri State.

Klieman is set to be introduced as the head coach at an 11am press conference.
