First off, i'm not sure i even understand your arguments on your blog. You say the offense was so bad in the first few games and the reasons are obvious yet you give no reasons and actually the offense moved the ball the first two games. It's like you pick and choose when you want to give credit to Canales yet none of us no how much credit or blame Canales actually gets or deserves. Did Canales game plan the Army game? The FIU game? The FAU game?
It's also getting old that you take the opinions of a few and then twist it to make it seem like the opinions of the majority. If i just read your take i would believe that every UNT fan and donor was againt Canales. It takes me about 2 minutes of reading GMG.com to know that isn't the truth. The majority are either for him, or giving him the opportunity to show what he can do. Only a select few are actively against his hire. Not the majority.
Look, most of us know that Dodge didn't make your job any easier and Canales probably would. But to openly push for his hire and attempt (i say attempt because in my mind you are doing more cheerleading than actual reporting) to sway people for his hire is both unprofessional and not your job. It's one thing to vet through a list of candidates and give your opinion on who would be the best hire and why. It's another thing entirely to push for one single candidate and then bash your readers who would like the process open to other candidates or who attempt to question who you are cheering for to get the job.
But hey, i guess i just haven't caught up with this new world of "journalism".
