TCU co-offensive coordinator Doug Meacham is one of two candidates who North Texas has closed in on as it nears the end of its search for its next head coach, FootballScoop reported Friday.

According to FootballScoop, UNT athletic director Rick Villarreal is expected to interview Meacham on Sunday and hopes to announce a hire early next week.

Seth Littrell, North Carolina's assistant head coach for offense, is the other name mentioned in FootballScoop's report.

Now...I do think George D's Twitter is interesting a few days ago mentioning Littrell. But I still think Meach is the better hire....better for marketing on top of the other pros.

he would be more well known here.  Littrell is well respected nationally.  Either one would be great.  I'm real positive about how either and think they did a good job narrowing it down.

completely agree. Wonder why Applewhite all of a sudden is out?

I have a prostate exam early next week with the doc I lovingly call "Fatfinger" and you know what that means.

Coincidence? I think not!!

WTF?!  How is he one of your final two, and you still have to have another interview?! So stupid.

Ha.  If this in true (and it is a big if),  my guess is that Littrel was really impressive in the interview and it is up to Meacham to knock him out.  I don't really follow TCU or UNC closely enough to know who'd I'd prefer.  Would Littrel be willing to take a new job prior to the ACC Conference championship or would we have to wait until afterwards?

I don't know how it works in head coaching interviews but a (presumptively second) interview could also just be to affirm their decision. Could tell him he has the job Sunday after making sure.

Or maybe the second interview would involve Smatresk and/or another decision maker.

      Brett Yormark, Big 12 Commissioner, basically told SMU that there was one school in the country that made obvious sense to add and it was SMU but TCU, OK State, Baylor, Tech, etc. did not want to elevate SMU. This year is proving them right to a certain degree b/c with the level playing field SMU will outspend and surpass them in record time. Why waste four years of your life in Lubbock, Stillwater, Fort Worth, or Waco when you could be in Dallas?

      RIP Dana. Too young indeed. He worked his craft his whole life. A short life well lived.

      what a bunch of garbage. Schools have been paying players, inducing high school recruits, and skirting (or outright ignoring) the rules since they started keeping score. The only difference now is that its out in the open for everyone to see. This is a bunch of revisionist history and yearning for the "good ol days" when in truth this stuff has always been there.

      Craponi should give his salary to Rod Brown for misusing him. In general, Rod has never been valued enough. He has been outstanding in very tough circumstances.

      Well NT 80, you are right. I am a dinosaur, but far from being a bitter fan. I have had a lot of joy through UNT athletics through out the decades but also some disappointment. I don't understand why our students show so little support and alumni give so little money. I don't understand why we can't build a winning football program but I expect you will tell us. I agree that my social graces have slipped but one of the pleasures of becoming an old man is not having to suffer fools.I will also at 82 admit to occasional memory lapses although I must say you are unforgettable. In summary I disagree with most but not all of your posts, respect your right to have a different opinion, find you easy to pimp,and wish you a blessed life.
