Winning doesn't seem to be a box to be checked.

In my opinion, thats a lateral move. I think he will hold out for a ACC, PAC 12, Big 12 or SEC job

Art Briles would be a perfect match for smoo. I doubt their administration would have zero problem with Briles.

Yes

Yes

Absolutely

Considering SMU is an opponent and a local competitor for recruits, this could be big.  I personally wasn't impressed with Morris.  There may be several coaches without jobs in a few weeks that are better than Morris.

Chad Morris is #28 on coacheshotseat.com.  I'm actually surprised by that.  Isn't this only his second year?  So they're 5-6 after starting with a dismal 1-11 team inherited from June Jones in 2014.  What do they expect, playoff appearances?

That SMU team is loaded with talent in the freshmen and sophomore classes who have all seen the field we would love to have. They are still a year or two away but the talent is absolutely there and Morris would be dumb to leave unless a school like LSU wants him.

I don't see how any coach in his right mind would want to take the Baylor job. No parent of a high profile recruit is going to want their kid at Baylor.

I don't want Briles to SMU.  He is a recruiting machine and will be on a mission wherever he lands.  I could see SMU going after someone like P.J. Fleck.

That would hurt bad @Harry

He runs a spread air raid system which they like...

He has arguably comparable college coaching experience to Chad Morris... Morris has more Texas high school ties...

He would bring a ready to go assistant staff...that is already recruiting DFW Texas etc

Hope like hell I am wrong but $hit Littrell turned around the Mac dumpster fire in one freaking year.  He has to be a consideration and SMU has the money to buy him out.

This makes me worry about Seth to SMU... believe me they could afford the buy-out.

Me too! That and I dont see him leaving after just one season.

I could be completely misreading him but I view Littrell as a man that is loyal to his word and will at least stick around for 3 years unless a job comes up that he cant refuse and I dont think that Job is SMU or Tulsa.

Not sure what the stipulations are on placing buyout fees onto coaches as in can it not exceed contract limits, but we need to slap massive opposing program buyouts on all head coaches.

Agreed however, SMU is paying Morris 2 million a year.  That is almost triple what we pay Littrell.  Littrell may be loyal but he has a family and that's some big dollars to walk away from.

I think Wren would be given the chance to match it... I think Baker is smart enough to know and aware enough to get the $ to keep SL

      A Volleyball Coach To Consider??

      Not sure if we'd hire a guy...as we replaced Jalie with a guy. And I think they like to have at least some women's head coaches. Found this guy....at Arkansas State. They're 26-5..... https://astateredwolves.com/sports/womens-volleyball/roster/coaches/brian-gerwig/980

      How 'Bout Some Blame For The BOR?

      I'm turning into Scotty after this weekend. The team had broken me.

      The Band

      I personally think that the playing music over the PA at times when the band would typically be playing has negatively impacted the cadence for when and how the band plays during the games. I don't want to be all old man about it, but if I want to listen to the stuff that is played on the PA system (majority of which I actually do like), I have about 10 different devices I can play that on myself. When I go to a college football game, I want to hear the friggin' band play during timeouts and between plays, when appropriate. It's college football, not an NBA game. When I look back at attending games at Fouts as a student in the 90s', I absolutely remember the band playing, and I enjoyed it then just as I do now. If they were playing other music, maybe they were, but I would have no memory of that whatsoever. Additionally, I know there has been some other negative thoughts about the band overall, and not that I have been in band since I played trumpet as a sophomore in high school so I am no expert, but I was absolutely blown away by the halftime performance this week. I know majority of it was a rehash of other bits and pieces that had already been done this year, but damn that was a strong close.

      How 'Bout Some Blame For The BOR?

      yes! 12 seed, 30-win, Will-Wades-been-to-6-straight-postseasons-including-S16, McNeese! Y'all (not necessarily you GJ)! Take off your football glasses. There are incredible programs dwelling in these off-name conferences. We have useful metrics that can validate their quality of ball, regardless of name/conference affiliation.
