Texas A&M: 247’s A&M site is reporting that they’ve been told offensive coordinator / quarterbacks coach Jake Spavital “will not be back” next season “and the tenures of others on the staff will depend on how A&M finishes up both the season and reruiting.”

Does this change your opinion of him as a candidate?

I was never very "in" on him. But that doesn't mean a check of his resume and maybe talking to people familiar with his work shouldn't be done. I think a wide search, especially everyone with current Texas recruiting ties, would be best for our coaching search. Don't focus on a few candidates too early. Be ready to move quickly at the end of the season, but don't jump at the first name either.

Be careful what you wish for! Spavital may not be back because he has accepted the job as HC at UNT and is waiting for the end of the season to go public. Wouldn't that piss on your Wheaties?

Nope. it doesn't change my opinion. I didn't want him then, and I do not want him now.

I would not be shocked to see A&M make a run at Lincoln Riley for OC.  They have the money to make it happen.

Yeah, they spent a bunch of cash on a DC, last season, and it's worked... wonders... for... their...program.

Figured I would move this over here so as not to clog up the Skip thread: 

spavital will be known as the guy that underperformed at A&M...not sure that will help him sell himself to recruits at UNT.

No.  Spavital will be known as the guy who coached Johnny Football to the Heisman.    And it would absolutely help him sell recruits to NT... Seeing as just about every naive hot-shot TX HS football QB (5* or 2*) wants to have the exact life that Manziel lived at A&M.

Not a shot directly at you Ed, but there are a ton of short-sighted folks on here.   

And if any of you formulate an idea about anything football-related due to the opinions of Aggie fans...  I don't know what that says about your football IQ, because theirs, on the whole, is short-bus 'special'.

I'm not sure I would want to be closely associated with Johnny Football since he continues to make an ass of himself off the field. What would that say about my mentoring skills?

There is an ad on Craigslist to buy him for $10, so he would by far be the cheapest candidate for the job. 

Another Aggie fan commented on a tweet linking him to job by simply saying "RIP North Texas Football"

i think we are already rip and would become the walking dead.

Nobody on this site couldn't tell me they wouldn't be excited to get jake spavital. Especially if he could talk kyle allen in following him up here. He would bring a spark. Probably not as much as lincoln. But he has as much coaching experience as kliff when he took over for tech. With him mentoring under sumlim and holgerson we know the offense will be opened up for sure.

If Spavital convinced Kyle Allen, the number one QB prospect in the nation, to follow him to North Texas I would worship the ground he walked on. Point is, it ain't gonna happen.

Texas A&M: Kevin Sumlin denied a report that offensive coordinator Jake Spavtial will not return next season, saying on his radio show, per the Houston Chronicle, “I’m not going to talk about where that came from. … There’s nothing factual about that report.”

Nobody couldn't = Anybody could 

Translation:

"Anybody on this site could tell me they wouldn't be excited to get Jake Spavital."

Yes, that is correct.

      24/25 MBB Attendance Tracker

      Third home game in a row under 3K in attendance and 4th for the season. Now at 2,947, average attendance is down almost 13% (439 per game) compared to the first 7 home games last year. We are now down 1,185 in average attendance compared to last season's full year average. The home conference slate kicks off with UAB on New Year's Eve. Hopefully, we will be able to chip away at this attendance deficit as some familiar foes visit the Super Pit, but it looks like hitting a 4K average and growing average attendance for the 3rd year in a row is becoming increasingly out of reach. Just win and they will come they said. SMH. On the bright side, we're currently sitting at 9-3 and 7-0 at home and own the 2nd best Net rating in the conference only behind Memphis. Unfortunately, the conference is incredibly weak this year so we don't have many opportunities to improve that ranking. Aside from winning on the road at Memphis, holding serve in terms of a Net rating may be the best we can do from here. Actually, looking at the schedule, we do have three Q2 road games (Wichita St, FAU and Temple). They need to keep winning and we will need to win those three to improve our resume.

      SMUt getting owned by State

      Tell me you’ll peddle BS on SMU’s behalf without telling me you’ll peddle BS on SMU’s behalf. Here is SMU’s attendance claim for this season; one so amazing that they made a nifty graphic for it. The only issue? Well, they played 7 home games and the stadium seats 32k…so an average attendance of 32,651 which is standing room only and beyond capacity is a bit difficult to swallow and leads one to believe that only believers in SMU math would buy it. And save me the “but look at North Texas’ attendance” garbage. Even someone as committed to being separated from reality as you knows that if North Texas 1) bought their way into the ACC to allow us to fill our stadium with opposing fans, 2) overpaid for players, and 3) had the easiest conference schedule possible to stack wins…Apogee would have been LEGITIMATELY sold out. And let me save you the trouble of the next silly argument you were just itching to type as a retort…yes, we have far more alumni, but we are not situated DEAD CENTER in a city of 1.3 Million people like SMU has been for decades

      Stop Blaming Athletes and the NCAA for Ruining College Football

      Come to think of it, ESPN and the other networks who really benefit from all of this, should contribute $$ to a NIL fund and distribute equally to each schools NIL for them to use at their discretion. Wouldn't that be fair?
