I am pretty sure he lives in the Southlake area as I have seen him eating with his family at the Corner Bakery in Southlake. Babe Laufenberg also eats there. There is lots of support for Todd Dodge in Southlake.

I think RV will give TD another year to turn the corner and learn from his mistakes. If he doesn't turn the corner, then a new coach will open the new stadium. Next year will determine TDs ultimate fate as the Mean Green's head coach.

So I'm sitting at the game looking at fourth and five thinking you go for it instead of kicking the field goal because all a field goal does is prevent a potential tie if Army were to drive down the field and kick one. A touchdown seals the game. And if you don't make the first down, Army still has to drive the length of the field. So I'm pleasantly surprised to see Dodge send out the offense, but then we all know what happens then. Dodge said they were trying to catch Army with their field goal defense in. When Army didn't do that, there was no plan. Hence the timeout and sending out our middle school league kicker. Dodge said he should have gone with his first impression and actually gone for it on fourth down. I was talking to myself as they lined up for the field goal saying "what are you doing, no, go for it, you had it right the first time". Unbelievable. George and Hank concluded the broadcast by saying 90 players will return next year and they will be bigger, stronger and better next year. Probably true, but the talent of the players didn't lose this game, although five turnovers kept Army in the game...the play calling and coaching decisions sealed the fate of this team.

This team consistently shows it can't finish a game. This coaching staff shows the same. Until that changes, the Championships and Bowl Games will fade into the past and have everyone wondering what if RV had given Dickey another year to turn things around. Even in Dickey's worst years, the Mean Green were never this non-clutch. Of course, RV will give Dodge another year because he will say progress has been made and things will be better next year. We shall see...we shall see. If it isn't better next year the the Dodge experiment will be over and RV will hire an asst. coach from a major program or a head coach from a 1aa program. For now...it is unbelievable how non-clutch this program is.
