Hey there everybody!! I am also new to the forum, but have been a lurker for many years. I can't tell you how excited I am to see Coach Dodge hired at UNT. I was a student manager when he was the OC and I worked with him and the QBs (including the great Mitch Maher) everyday at practice. Between Coach Kragthorpe and Coach Dodge, they were the two best coaches that I met and worked with at UNT by a long mile. Both knew how to connect with people--whether they were players, coaches, managers, trainers, fans, etc.. Trust me on this. Coach Dodge is a laid-back guy, but he knows when to get things fired up. UNT just got their best hope at making football a huge part of the university's culture. And for some one who had their way thru college paid for by the athletic department, I can only pray that the rest of the university and the community will finally begin to support its teams. As I have read often from PlummMeanGreen, Denton and its ol nestors have had their day--its time for a new beginning and I think we just saw it tonight!!
