MGB: In a side note, Texas pursuing TCU's other co-offensive coordinator Sonny Cumbie, could have an impact on UNT

http://meangreenblog.dentonrc.com/2015/11/texas-pursuing-meachams-oc-partner-at-tcu.html/

Now i'm envisioning worse case scenarios where we hold out for Littrell, lose Meacham, and then Littrell spurns us for a bigger program after an upset against Clemson. I must be a North Texas fan.

So, the consensus is that it will definitely be Meacham unless it's someone else.

This is why RV's ass should have been canned after Portland St. Good Lord. 50/50 odds we screw this up and end up with neither of the top candidates.  And those odds may be low.

Maybe we can have Chris Thomsen on speed dial in case Meachem and/or Littrell get hired away elsewhere which I see very possible with the current job market (Memphis, Tulane, Maryland, etc...)

That's why the quicker this thing wraps up the better. Some may scoff at not letting time be an issue if we do choose Littrell, but is is. Our options are more limited the longer we wait and the more likely other bigger programs get desperate and go after their plan B or C, which could be one of our guys. Hence why so many programs got their coaches wrapped up yesterday.

This does not surprise me at all. We knew this would be a power struggle between those two. Let's just hope it doesn't cost us both coaches in the time it takes for them to sort it out. But if the President is leaning Littrell that may change my mind on who my first choice is.

God we are in some kind of crazy Star Trekkian time circle thingy. GMG post of rumor or desire turns into media or twitter post picked up by other media or twitter users turns into GMG post turns into media or twitter post...

Looks like someone has been reading this board.

Who is that guy and why would he have any clue about such things?  If the committee is made up of RV and Neal then one would be the source of the leak.  Seems highly suspect to me.

RV may have gotten excited and told some players/parents he trusted but Smastresk hadn't signed off on it yet. He's a producer for The Ticket & UNT grad, don't know if he has any inside info or anything.

Sidway is stating that:

 

Litrell's camp think Littrell is the favorite.

Meacham's camp thinks Meacham is the favorite.

 

IMO: We could very well have a tentative yes from both and RV and Neal are ironing out $$$ and who fits better. If we don't strike however, we may be left with neither. GET THIS DONE

He is an alum and works for the Ticket radio.

      Eric Morris needs to go

      I am torn on what to do with EM, but I know he needs to go. Many say we need a HC with head coaching experience at the FBS level. I know there are HCs at other FBS programs doing more with less, but would they come to a place where historically it's difficult to win consistently and risk it all if their eye is ultimately on a power conference job? Then if you take a P4 conference former HC, they have most likely been fired and they may not get the mojo back like Tom Herman at FAU or Charlie Strong. So, if that is the case where do we go? Many are saying no FCS HC or no more coordinators who have not been a HC at this level. Again where do we go if not those type of guys? My thought is that you may have to hire that guy that this board has been reluctant to go after. That's the guys who have had issues somewhere else and that's why they are no longer where they are. Lane Kiffin had issues and FAU gave him the chance to resurrect his career. Alabama gave Sarkisian (spelling) a chance to resurrect his career and he is doing good things at Texas. We have tried a lot of things, but we have not tried that route of HCs with some skeletons in their past. I feel that if that coach wins, people will forget about their past. I am sure people at Texas have forgotten about what went down with Sark at USC. Just my opinion because we have been striking out for a long time on HCs.

      In case you’re a Yeti collector

      YETI has a collegiate collection. I didn't get a chance to snag one of the above, so I'm hoping that UNT will become available on their website. Eventually?

      Eric Morris needs to go

      I'm not sure what the path is for Cobbs long term. A lot of us would absolutely love to have him in a HC role in Denton, but we want to see him gain HC experience first. Do we take a chance and give him that crown? Do we watch him leave, and possibly not return...ever?
