shaft

TD is playing the guy we wanted for his QB since he took the job.

Since we've been "better" fans under TD, than we were under DD shouldn't we expect more from Dodge.

and that's why Dodge is great high school coach. If winning isn't a priority, he's in the wrong line of work. "The Dodge era is the worst in school history, but that's ok because I get a warm fuzzy feeling about student athletes."

Leach said on a radio interview this week he was only interested in a school that is serious about football, so North Texas is out.

Over-react much. RV has built a great overall athletic program. RV is holding Dodge accountable, that's we all know about the "6-wins or else" clause.

We should just make the announcement that Dodge won't be back has head coach, put Deloach on notice, and sit all the seniors. The Dodge era is the worst in school history.

TD should be given the chance to get to 6 wins in his 4th season. That's means by week 8 we should make the announcement Dodge won't be back has head coach, and we can in the new guy in here by the second week of December.

A better comparison would be RV gave DD the same 6-win ultimatum. A do have to call Tasty out on one thing, the Big West was no gem and include some of those same "terrible" conference mates. I'm also not sure how firing DD in 2001 would have been better for the program. RV didn't extend DD contract until after the 2002 bowl win, so DD was still under scrutiny after the miracle season.

New Head Coach nomination...JJ

Has any school built a new stadium that is not nicer that any stadium constructed 10 years before it? SMU has a good stadium, ours will be better. Then TCU will remodel theirs, and it will be nicer.

Let's not get to revisionist with our history. Dodge lost to that same SMU squad the next season. Teams go into the crapper after they find out there coach is being fired, why does a coach record matter after he's a lame duck? DD got fired a season and a half after 4-straight bowl runs, that was the wrong move. Dodge teams will suck even more after he's laid off in a couple of weeks.

Hindsight being what it is, DD shouldn't have been fired mid-season just put on notice for the next season and forced to get a new OC. I'm on the record saying the SMU win should have been enough to avoid getting the ax mid-year. I'm on the record saying Dodge wouldn't make in college. -That he couldn't bring in college level assistants. -That the high school spread won't work in college, because we would have the talent disparity to make it work. -The richest 10 school districts win 50% of all the UIL awards, because they have talent advanced from things like more coaching, summer camps, and select leagues, not because of superior coaching. I'm on the record saying Dodge wouldn't coach a game in the new stadium. And now for one more thing I'll be right about. This board shouldn't pick the next coach. Your the same fools that clamored for the worst coach in school history and called for the head of the guy that brought four consecutive conference championships the week after his heart attack.

I'm due to hit the powerball

UNT is 0-2. Dodge is 5-33 in his 4th season, with the worst record in school history. Those are the only stats that matter

A coach with D1/FBS experience, who can bring in D1/FBS assistants. And a guy who won't bring in his own undersized, often injured kid to play in front of an experienced QB.

TD has to win 6 out of the next 10 games to keep his job. That's not going to happen. I thought I was being generous thinking we'd win two games before November. I just hope RV drops the ax sooner rather than later so we can get the new coach in by the first week of December.

There is no reason to fire Dodge and Deloach today. Dodge is on the record with 6 wins or else. TD will seal his own fate. The team is improved, but its not enough to win 6 games. I do expect RV to fire TD mid-season. He didn't show DD any favors and wait until the end of the season. The only question is if TD gets fired in week 7 or week 8?

We're only 8 weeks away from the big announcement.

If LA Tech and UTSA join the SBC, why is that such a bad conference for us?

Wow. You mean the same WBAP that was talking Tennessee Tech this morning.

Are we so desperate for media recognition that we have a thread about local talk radio hosts? "The Dodge Era is the Worst in School History" is he stoked about that?

No. There are only a 120 D1/FBS teams. Sagarin's crappy ranking system doesn't compare apples to apples.

UNT @ UT 1991

RV hated DD and fired him the first chance he got, a season and a half after our 4th straight bowl appearance. The fan base was clamoring for Dodge so it was an easy hire for RV. TD does all the head coach things well that RV and the fans like, but it hasn't translated into on the field success. I just want to know if TD gets fired in week 7 or week 8.
