Maybe it’s just my normal self-protection mode of being a UNT Football fan over the last 30+ years, but I truly have prepared myself for the reality that we will be stuck with SL another season if he wins another game. To be clear, I want him gone. Beating the dregs of FBS and a FCS spare to get to 4 wins or more is the absolute lowest level of accepted SUCK-sess that anyone could accept after the previous two seasons of winning 4 games each while beating the dregs of FBS and FCS spares.

So that’s why it ok if we lose out. It’s the only chance we have to get the huge buyout paid to get SL out of town.

Another position filled - Jim Mora to UCONN

isn't Butch Davis gone from FIU?

Trust in Baker.  A couple of months ago everyone was on edge thinking we would be left behind in the conference reshuffling only to find out that Pres. Smatresk and AD Baker had been working behind the scenes for the past year positioning our alma mater for the next step.  I am not convinced McGuire would have ever considered us and Helton and Mora were never on our radar.

Technically not until the end of the season.

FIU's AD is also out the door.  It will be interesting to see if FIU commits to athletics in the future.

None of them would come here. Not even Bill O’Brien.

I have so much dislike for that man I wouldn’t want him if he paid us to let him coach.

[outoftown]

Troy also fired their coach.

Looks like Lincoln Riley headed to LSU

 

 

[El Paso Eagle]

Bob Stoops back to OU?

I think Coach Riley is taking a calculated risk. OU and UT will have a rude SEC awakening.  They are used to having big financial and recruiting advantages over their conference opponents.  LSU and OU are equally likely to fire him once OU joins the SEC.

[Venson]

If this is true then SL should have been winning here and then he would have had a chance at his dream job. He didn't win here consistently and now OU probably wouldn't even offer him an OC position even though I believe that is where his heart has been all along instead of on making North Texas a winner.
