Crazy report that Mike Leach has indicated that he's interested in the FT Worth star telegram today...  Donors lining up too. 

If true, he's gotta be screwing with them...  right?     

Seems like something he would do, and with how things ended there, I cannot imagine him wanting to actually return.

I dunno.  I'm all for it.  Would be hilarious to see him return to the Big12. Let's see.

SL has a way to go before he gets serious consideration by an OU or TT...until then seems like his agent is leveraging a higher salary for his client by continuously putting his name out there for these jobs like UNC or TT.

This is laughable, and I really hope it doesn't work.  We're bidding against ourselves if this is the case. 
I think Smatty & Wren are smart enough to know what's going on.   Littrell is already one of the highest paid G5 coaches.    Money is not the problem with him.   

People like Troy need to worry because Neal Brown is NOT one of the highest paid G5 coaches, and may consider a move to another richer G5 like Memphis (assuming Norvell goes somewhere) he doesn't get a shot at a P5 himself.

I would think they are. However, I don't think Seth has more to prove to get a Power 5 job. But in these two cases, SL looked a lot like Kliff (young air raid coach whose defenses haven't been great) and was Fedora's guy. Both probably hurt his chances at the respective schools. I also think UNC was only able to afford to make a chance because they hired Mack who is wildly popular there. That's probably helped raise the dollars to pay Fedora.

38 pages of pure speculation and hand wringing over what appears to be nothing.

In a way you are right, provided we get past this part of the carousel. But don't forget, one or two more coaches might get canned after their bowl games, and maybe some ADs are just slower with their firings than others, needing the political support first.

What is UNC doing? Brown is 67 and has always been a CEO type coach that has relied his assistants. I’m just not sure how that fixes their problems.

Ohh well, good for UNT and for limiting SL landing spots, but this one is a head scratcher to me for UNC. 

The discussion I've read is this move establishes Mack Brown's direct line to be... the AD-in-waiting?? It's all so strange.

we aren't out of the woods yet. It is day 2 of coaching Carosel

My point was that no matter what we do, it is out of our hands.  It just bugs me that this thread is pinned right where potential recruits can log in and read all the speculation.

You would rather have twenty threads all over several pages? I have to merge several threads every week.  And that's just people who don't bother to post in the mega thread.  Without the mega thread there would be new threads every. single. day.

If what you want is to not read about it, then don't click this thread. People are going to want to talk about it, obviously, and we aren't going to censor those threads just because we want SL to stay.

Trust me recruits are well aware of the situation before they ever log on to gmg. And when they do its to see their own recruiting page

Nope, I prefer one thread, but why pin it?  It is like owning a nice cafe and then posting on yojr webpage your speculation about your chef leaving.  Makes no sense to me.

      Do I need to go into another rant about how we didn't start our endowment fund until 1974 or 75. It was AGAINST OUR CULTURE TO RAISE OUTSIDE MONIES. When we finally caught on, we were 84 years behind just about everyone else. BUT most of the administrators still didn't want North Texas to change. Around the time that "Jitter Nolan" and Hayden Fry arrived we were the complete opposite of SMU. They loved their money, and we loved our bureaucracy. And that is mostly still true today. SMU resents that they were punished for what just about all the other SWC schools were doing. And that is somewhat valid. But my assessment of what went down starts with the fact that everyone dislikes and/or hates SMU and it culminated with their ham handed, and arrogant, system of paying players. SO, once again, SMU was treated unfairly, but they pretty much brought it on themselves. Just about everyone hated you then.......and pretty much still does.

      Any Word on DC Candidates?

      That was actually for 2017. I looked at the wrong year... they were 79th for 2018-2019 calendar year. Middle of the pack in the ACC. He makes more than Caponi which I don't like unless we plan on holding on to the ball for 35 minutes per game like Army did this year. https://stats.ncaa.org/rankings/national_ranking?academic_year=2019.0&division=11.0&ranking_period=69.0&sport_code=MFB&stat_seq=28.0

      First College Net Rankings released

      that Jan 5 game is setting up to be super important as it's looking like possibly our only other shot at a Quad 1 win. plus for some of you, it could be a convenient stop on your roadtrip...looks like Memphis is about a third of the way to DC...might wanna get on the road after the game to catch the daytime reunion activities, but either way I'm sure the party will be going well into the night

      Agree, he had three 9-plus winning seasons and two bowl wins. Rick

      Good point. And I guess that's why ASU only played 11 games....as they had a game with Liberty cancelled.
