ECU started off slow but is playing good ball now. UNT of the other hand is going the opposite direction. We should of won the Army game and loosing to UTSA was a slap in the face.

He shouldn't get fired anytime soon. This is just his 2nd year. We should, in my opinion, give him at least 3 years.

ECU's offense looks to me like a mirror image of UTSA.

I do too, but wouldn't return even if David Anderson provided round trip transportation from the nearest bar.

So where are you guys predicted to go? Home?

Actually I saw UNT vs Texas State predicted in New Mexico Bowl. If we are 6&6 its probable Frisco. If 7&5 we might have another choice.

I often thought that our head football coach should keep the team on the sidelines at half time to watch our band perform so they could watch an organization on the field who knows what they are doing.

So if you were AD for a day which P4 regional program could you bring in? Hard to get the big boys in Texas to play in a 30,000 seat road game. SMU and TCU will never play us again and Houston has moved on. Looks like Texas State , Sam Houston, UTEP, New Mexico St.,Ark. St., ULL, and La. Tech are regional programs that might draw more fans than flies so sign them up.

We have only had 4 coaches [I missed Jack Sisco] since 1913 out of a total of 18 who exited North Texas with winning records, Hayden Fry being the last in 1978. Goals and objectives must be realistic and obtainable with a little pie in the sky. Quite honestly I have no idea what we our standard should be, only what it has become . However, expect more are you will get less ,which seems to be the norm for our football program.

I certainly am not making excuses for the termination of Caponi and agree that it was overdue. However I am surprised that our AD and not HC was the one who reportedly pulled the trigger. I owned a medical device sales agency for 30 years and can testify that no one like firing an employee. In fact those who do , unless its a really egregious act, usually wait longer than the should because the real mistake was made by you in hiring them in the first place. Having said that I have never terminated an employ that didn't expect it and in most cases were relieved that the ax finally dropped.

Well Army rarely passes so it made sense to use a 4 man front. We just don't have enough good players on defense so I expect ECU to pick up where UTSA left off.

At that time Howard Schlenburg [sic] was coaching FAU and had good teams. I don't remember much about Troy.

Helwig had Dickey playing 3 or 4 money games a year which skews his record. Coach Jake refused doing the same in basketball and was fired.

Going back to 1913, only Fouts,Mitchell, and Fry had winning records.

Yes it does. Looked better closer up.
