[quote name='UNTLifer' date='23 October 2010 - 11:43 AM' timestamp='1287852195' post='520196' You could learn a thing or two about character from Dodge.

I googled Franchione and this came up http://mythemes.tv/series/images/captaink.gif Kinds looks like the love child of Fran and RV

Stop kissing the ass of a dead horse

What part of coaching requires a buzz cut? And what part of being a AD requires a 'stache

What will we pay our assistants? We can probably get a good coach for the current $250k, but will he be able to get the assistants we needs for what we pay?

Seems a little harsh and I never wanted Dodge to start with. There's no reason for people to feel hurt by Dodge's performance, this is a businesses and he just didn't measure up. I do remember watching spring training with Matt a few years back, when he thought Dodge could still turn it around and I thought he'd be 3 and out. We were debating who the next coach and said a name guy like Fran, because it the one thing the school hasn't tried. We can't spend all this money on a new stadium and not bring in name coach right?

Now that's Dodge is gone I've got four years of donations to make up for. How much are seasons tickets for next year?

I don't think it was Dodge's talent radar that was the problem. It was is coaching talent radar. He brought in guys that weren't ready for college, and college guys would come work for him. He ran off guys he shouldn't have. He got absolutely nothing out of his first year. The Dodge lovers and apologist on this board try to say the cupboard was bare, but it was really the cooks fault.

I heard we lead the nation in excuses too.

Name: Play Station Age: 12 Why I'd be a great Head Coach: I'm pre-loaded with simple three options plays the players are experienced with Experience: On NCAA 2004 I was able to get UNT into the Big 12 in dynasty mode Price: Every member of the team already as one

Do you mean for the rest of the season? Neither of the coordinators have shown their ready to be a HC. This team needs someone with D1 HC experience.

I remember an interview about a year ago where Dion said he wanted to be a head coach. Then the interviewer asked Prime Time why he couldn't go the Mike Singletary route and start off as position coach and work his way up from there. Then there was dead air.

Is the third claim to fame the 'stache?

To clarify lets say fired = the announcement that Dodge won't be head coach. I fully expect RV to make the announcement and let TD coach out the rest of season. We're not going to tar and feather the guy, we just don't want him running the team.

I don't think it was Dodge's arrogance. It was more he and his guys wanted to show they belonged in college and I just don't think they guy could get experienced college coaches to come work for him. But either ways its one of Dodge's failings and he (and his supporters) have to own that.

My guess is after the 7th loss (read WKY)

You mean empirical evidence? Dodge's failures are his own. He brought in a inexperience staff and it failed. He's made some changes, but he still hasn't won. He's brought in his recruits and still can't win. Injuries are part of the game, but I'm starting to think the amount of injuries we have indicate a coaching/conditioning problem.

Close. 34-10 and FIU was only favored by a touchdown. Most reputable sources had us picked for 3-9, with wins over WKY, ULM, and FIU. Dodge can't even win the few games he's predicted to. Why wait fire the guy, he lost the last homecoming game at Fouts.

Really? You haven't made an argument yet. The obvious facts overwhelm your opinion. Dickey did more in his last season and half than Dodge has done with his 3.5 seasons. Dodge is proven loser and I'm sorry you can't see past your personal blinders. UNT has a pretty good debate team, maybe your kid can join that so you can learn what a argument is.

Don't let the facts get in the way of your rant. Dodge is proven failure. He hasn't won games, he's not winning games, there no reason to believe is going to start winning games. Dodge doesn't just own the record as the worst coach in school he also owns some of the worst losses in school history. Just because the team is no better than the all time low Dodge created doesn't mean he's going to start winning games. Competitive high schools wouldn't even keep a guy with Dodge's record.

1. Its homecoming 2. This is pre-season win prediction 3. FIU isn't very good If Dodge can't win today there is no reason not to fire him on Monday.

Since we can't blame the coach, maybe we should blame the players.

Terry Bowden salary at North Alabama is around $100,000. We should have him here for a interview on Monday.

We deserve it. Dodge took floundering team and put in the cellar. Why is it surprising that the worst coach in school history is the worst coach in the country. No one has done less in 4 seasons than Todd Dodge. Five wins in 3 1/2 seasons, he sucks. And we suck for keeping him.

I like all the quotes from the guys who didn't hire Dodge, but did hire a former Dickey assistant for the Cowboys job.
