Hedlund should be held to the same standard as our other coaches and it appears winning conference is as far as he can take us.  Time to bring someone else to take this team to the next level.

It would be nice if the other coaches could actually win conference first (let alone winning it year-after-year-after-year-after-year....)before we put them on Hedlund's job security level.

It's  not easy when you are playing a team that is just overall better than us. Held them scoreless for nearly 60 minutes

We have never, ever scored a goal in a NCAA playoff game...EVER.  We had one shot on goal last night that was from a set piece and ended up being a direct kick right at the goalie.  We never threatened to score.  Hedlund goes in to a shell in these games.  We don't even try to win.

I think you are trolling on this topic now. If you aren't, my goodness. The idea that Hedlund went up there with no intention of trying to win is so much absurdity.

I went to the playoff game at Tech a couple of years ago and felt like it was a wasted trip on my part.  Why?  It didn't appear that we even attempted to attack.  We just sit back all game.  If there is intention of winning it doesn't appear so considering we get minimal shots, spend very little time on offense and have never scored a goal in a playoff game.

Okay, well you are irrelevant to talk to. It's not like they are gonna go dominate the other team with offense. Hedlund is a defensive minded HC, and that's why we are always solid on the defensive side

I am irrelevant to talk to?  I am not asking us to dominate the other team with offense, and I understand Hedlund is a defensive minded HC, but it appears we make zero attempts to control the ball, attack offensively, etc... in these games.  The lack of goals in any playoff game would confirm this observation. I am just asking that we appear to try and score, make an effort.  @NorthTexasSportsNetwork, I don't expect a reply since I am irrelevant.

      McNeese State (11/18/24)

      I don't think some do the research, just that their entire college sports view is shaped by the convos they get at the watercooler at work, or a small circle of bros that have been beer talkin' over the same 5 conferences (anchored in football) for 20 years. The NET, committees, and them thar advanced metrics be damned. Don't need them!

      Depth Chart vs ECU

      I think what Odom was running at USC was a 3-3-5 that had a “RUSH” position serving as a hybrid DE/LB, so really only 2 second level linebackers, making it similar to a 4-2-5 in effect. Different from Caponi’s 3-3-5 stack. Maybe someone like Chavez Brown could play that type of role but not exactly a lot of time to implement that level of scheme change. https://usctrojans.com/sports/2022/8/31/2022-usc-trojans-football-roster-depth-chart

      ***OFFICIAL UNT vs. UTSA IN-GAME DISCUSSION***

      Offense lacks a vertical passing game. People have raved about the top 5 offense in passing yards per game but per the NCAA website and ESPN (NCAA is more precise with some of the numbers), CM is 48th in yards per completion at 12.37 YPC, 41st in yards per attempt at 7.85 YPA, 45th in completion percentage at 63.7%, and tied for second in pass attempts at 422. The numbers show we don't push the ball downfield as much as others and that we aren't efficient enough considering how little we do that. Being top 5 in passing yards is simply a volume stat at this point. We just throw a ton. Screens are great but when it's most of what you do, it gets dicey. Those and run plays start off as negative yardage plays dependent on blocking. Can't have those every drive. About teams figuring out EM, our competition has gotten better.
