Fire Chris Cosh

bstnsportsfan3 · October 16, 2015

Chris Cosh should be fired. I know WKU has a great offense, but this is the worst D I have seen at North Texas. When I would rather have Ron Mendoza you know you suck.

This looks exactly like a Mendoza defense.

Is missed tackles an official statistic? At least we can say we lead the nation in something....

greenminer · October 16, 2015

The defense has been bad all year. I'm just happy to see some signs of life in the offense.

We still need a new AD.

bstnsportsfan3 · October 16, 2015

not hard to get 8 yards a play when we play 10 yards off every time and that's assuming we MAKE a tackle

KingDL1 · October 16, 2015

Cosh is already fired. he has 6 games left same as the rest of the staff

Rudy · October 16, 2015

Fire him now, let Patrick take over

akriesman · October 16, 2015

Yep. Cosh Defense = Mendoza Defense. Both are historically bad. The stout defense was the main reason for our success.....for that 1 season a couple years back.

D gives up a TD to backups. Good God :(

Who is Mendoza?

The size difference between WKU's O-line and UNT's D-line was pronounced.

EDIT: I mean, not that you expect a D-line to be close to an O-line's size. But there was a lot of 255 vs. 310 out there.

Mario Mendoza. Famous shortstop known for setting the bar regarding batting statistics.

H-towngreen · October 16, 2015

Can't fire him and hen be down 2 coaches, but I totally agree with the sentiment

Cr1028 · October 16, 2015

Don't forget that the USF fans referred to his defense as a "shatter don't break" defense.

I noticed that too, and that was obviously a big worry coming into the season. A couple of those guys who shall remain unnamed seem to be a bit short on aggression for d-linemen.

Remember how good the D looked through the first 3 quarters at SMU? WTF happened?

man-up UNT · October 16, 2015

OMG, the worst defensive players I've ever seen in my 35 years of watching UNT football; my god the tackling was like a girl's pillow fight... Just embarrassing to the students and alumni. We're the laughing stock of the country with the lost last week and to hear the CBS commentators comment about how bad we were was just awful, we are a fucking joke! I'm done with this team forever!!!

SMU is not a good football team.

It takes time to un-teach what Skladany had taught. And SMU is not a good team.

Even in the SMU game, and every game since, defense missed a lot of open field tackles.

My thoughts exactly. I DVR'd the game and am currently watching it. Good God! It looked like the defense was playing two-below.

UNT 90 Grad · October 16, 2015

Who is Mendoza?

Mendiza was the high school defensive coordinator that Todd Dodge brought in when he was hired. Dodge eventually got rid of him.

MeanGreenTexan · October 16, 2015

I saw Coach Patrick wearing the bright green shirt that Cosh used to wear, and he was definitely putting in calls last night. I don't know if they were just for his linemen, or for the entire defense though.

Also, the 3-4 needs to go away this season. We definitely don't have the personnel for this defense.

We were starting 2 true freshmen CBs. They made some decent plays, got burned quite a bit, and missed quite a few tackles. As soon as they were announced, I knew we were going to be in for a long day. Their play should not surprise anyone... especially against that offense. Bringing Marshall in helped some. He needs to see more time out there, IMO.
