Probably because he's either interviewing or finalizing a deal with KSU. That's the only thing I can think of that would keep him from getting back in time for practice.

The actual NFF Awards Dinner is tonight in New York.  It makes sense that he would remain there.

Still, if he is indeed keeping our players in the dark about his absence at such a critical time, that would speak volumes about where his priorities currently lie.

Maybe it was assumed at practice today (after a meeting with coach on Sunday prior to his departure) that he wasnt going to be there today?

Now, Biagi... ?    As I lean right now, I would put his departure at a higher percentage than Littrell's.

cancel the bowl game-two teams without HC will be a good game to watch (not).  They might as renamed it Who Cares Bowl". Look at SMU last year it was a pathetic effort.  The players from both teams will be in the dumps for this game. I might rethink my plans now.

Feel free to watch Tulane VS ULL instead.

Ok, the players are psych up for the game and I am not.  As a fan, I am no longer looking forward to it and I feeling little down about it.  We all knew this was a bus stop for SL when he took the job and he would be moving on.  I just thought he would accomplish the goals before leaving and one more year with his recruits we would have been great shape.   I just don't know of a better coach out there that will take this job.  Wren, please prove me wrong and I never want to go back to #olddenton.

We’d get a glimpse of the potential head coach for next year.  Will there be any changes to the offense with an interim?  Not all is lost, man. The seniors have busted tail.  GMG!

I wonder if EJ will sit it out and prepare for the NFL draft.  Seems to be happening more and more outside the playoff teams and the NYD teams.

I think EJ needs more game film on him to prove that he is indeed NFL ready. He's NFL Caliber in My opinion. I hope he gets an invite to the Senior Bowl if they havent sent those invites out yet.

Agree.   Sitting out the bowl game is for guys who are projected to go 1st/2nd rounds.

EJ is a phenomenal player, and will make a NFL team very very happy, but I don't know that enough NFL scouts' eyeballs have been on him over the past 2 years.   And we all know how little publicity he gets playing in a C-USA school.  Playing in one of 4 games on December 15th will allow for more scouts to see him.  And if not the Senior Bowl, hopefully the East-West Shrine game.

He's no-doubt going to ball out in New Mexico, and our Pro Day will be full of scouts there to see him.   They'll also get a good look at Nate, Kemon & Rod Young (The most under-the-radar guy on the team, with apologies to Kelvin Smith).

Coach Littrell missed days of practice either last year or two years ago during the bowl season as well. Just saying

Don't bring your rational, logical BS in here....

We're done. Accept it.

      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?
