We can hope it's only 30 for Tennessee. haha

That's for LaTech, no?
-
Odd that it was a somewhat delayed knee jerk reaction. When I posted it on Saturday night I don't think anyone had mentioned offering him the job, but you are correct, there are numerous examples of it now. I like Canales and truly appreciate what he has done as interim coach (twice), but the timing just isn't right for him to be our next head coach. Now, make it competitive against LaTech, don't get embarrassed at UT, and beat MTSU and UTEP and I might change my mind.

I would have guessed between 8-10K. Ghost town is little dramatic. I'd say alumni side was about 1/3 full, which is bad, but hardly a "ghost town." Now if you were describing the wing you'd get no disagreement from me.
-
We could have had those two plays a month ago and we still would have lost (probably by 20+). We're a better team now than were a month ago. That's all I'm sayin.
-
This. Show a little optimism and you're branded an idiot who thinks we could come back and win C-USA this year with Canales as national coach of the year. All most of us are saying is that we are vastly improved over the team we ran out there less than a month ago. That 4th team QB leading a 1-6 opponent beats us by 20+ points a month ago.
-
Like pretty much everyone who has posted in this thread, I acknowledge his deficiencies, but the more he plays the madder I get that he was on the sidelines for the first 5 games.
-
While I agree with everything you say about the PSU game, I'm still not sure we beat them. Maybe I'm just over rating them because they beat what is turning out to be a pretty good Washington St. team.
-
If you're trying to funny I can appreciate the kick in the nUTSAck. Well done. If you're being serious this is one of the most ignorant posts ever.
-
what would our record be? I think the team (and coaching staff) that has been on the field the past three weeks beats SMU and maybe even Rice. Southern Miss and Portland St. are still loses, but not nearly as lopsided. Iowa probably calls the score regardless because they're proving to be pretty good this year. Who knows, if Smith had been QB all year he might, just might be a little more accurate with his passes and that would make a big difference. So I say we would be 3-5, with losses to teams that are 8-0, 6-3, 7-1(FCS), 7-2, 8-1.

Coach Chico Embraces the fans after the UTKFC win
NT93 replied to Harry's topic in Mean Green Football
While I really like him as well and appreciate the job he has done as interim head coach (twice), I just don't think the time is right to hire him as our next head coach. Had he been hired after Dodge I would have been 100% behind the move, but I just think at this point he represents too much of the past from which we are trying to distance ourselves. Really too bad because as others have mentioned, he seems to truly care about UNT. -
You think he would have been a bad hire, but since it never happened you can't know for a fact. Just the same as I can't know for a fact that he would have been a good hire, thus my use of the words may have been.
-
Who has called for Chico to be head coach? I missed that thread. All I see are people showing appreciation for an improved team the last three games and the avoidance of a certain 0-12 season if the other guy was still head coach. I'll state one more time: He may have been the best option at head coach after Dodge. It would be ridiculous to hire him now, but I don't know that it would have been five years ago and neither do you.
-
You read a lot into "He MAY HAVE BEEN the best option at head coach AFTER Dodge."
-
I know, the way he finished the season with Dodge's mess and the way he has turned things around this year...what was I thinking? Not saying he should be hired now, but 5 years ago, the time may have been right.
-
Agreed! Not to knee jerk and not to get off topic, but he may have been the best option at head coach after Dodge.
-
I voted consistent winner, but honestly the two scenarios are very similar. I mean, same won/loss record and 10 bowl games vs 7 bowl games. To me feast or famine means something like a 9-4 record with a HoD bowl win one season followed by 4-8 and 2-10 (at best) seasons. Give me 7-8 wins consistently with a 9 or 10 win season mixed in along with a 5 or 6 win season and I'd be happy.
-
I don't disagree with anything in the entire article.
-
+10000. If this is not obvious to you, I don't know what to say.
-
LOL. True. The only reason I don't feel very good about getting a win next week is because we can't beat UTSA when we're good so I have a hard time convincing myself we'll beat them when we're bad.
-
Differing points of view, but I can see kicking field goals. At this point in the season, it's all about having as many positives as possible. We weren't going to win the game, so make it as respectable as possible...which we did. I don't endorse Canales as the next head coach, but I think the team we've seen the past two weeks beats the McCarney-led team by at least 21 points. I know longer think we are the worst team in the FBS and Canales has to have something to do with it. Maybe I was watching the game through my Mean Green colored glasses, but I thought we gave Marshall a decent game, especially considering we got down early.
-
Nothing is a bigger beating to me than having us called North Texas State. Well, except getting steamrolled by Portland St.

Please keep the SOW. Change the size if needed, but keep the SOW. I personally like the black incorporated, but I can take it or leave it as long as we keep the current color green. No more changing the shade of green. For the love of God, just decide on a logo and school colors and keep them. This should not be something a football coach can change. As a university, we should have a standard for the colors and logos of the university.
