Frankly I'm hoping for an upgrade. Special teams play was pedestrian this year.  Good luck to Coach Perry wherever he lands.

I REALLY wish this would have happened last year. You can say new coach, cleaning house, don't worry. Now, it's a year in and a coach/recruiter leaves weeks before NSD? Right after the scholarship iss

Bummer. Was really hoping he would take a lateral position move to take a pay and conference downgrade.

They may rearrange the staff they have to share in the special teams roles.  I think they know who they want and what his role will be.  Will be interesting.

Why wouldn't he?  He took the UT job in 2015 and the 2 years he has there as ST/Tight Ends is all the college experience he has.  Given the opportunity to head to Houston with their new coaching staff (also makes sense) and that hasn't happened as of yet.

Had a base salary of $350K. Was a Scout Big 12 Recruiter of the Year. 

Texas had a top 10 recruiting class and lead the Big 12 (I mean, it's usually between UT and OU).

He will find a solid spot somewhere at a prominent school willing to pay some money.

This certainly isn't a knock on UNT, but rather that Traylor has earned a very solid reputation as a recruiter.

He is currently unemployed, no?

I found the very first post in that thread pretty jarring:

Guys, sorry that we had to kill the Navasota thread.  However, per the rules of the site, you can not post something as definite as "Navasota offered him a huge contract" without being able to back it up.  That is spreading a false rumor as news, and the thread title was misleading.  

...

 

 

Boy, would that mod have some fun around here.

Should we expect an announcement before NSD? Hoping we could get this guy out before NSD to lockup and fill these last 5-6 slots

The Rice OC job is now open. Traylor coached Luke Turner who went to Rice, and has a relationship with David Bailiff. Pure speculation here, but I could see a fit here.

 

Enough with the Traylor talk, I am interested to see who our new RB coach is.

Good for him, I liked him as a coach and find it questionable chasing him away.

Don't think he was chased away, think it was truly a mutual split.
