I still think it's gonna be Fuente, but I would just fine with Neal Brown

I'd be good with Fuente but I would love to see Neal Brown bring Graham Harrell with him!

[greenminer]

when was the last time we brought a coach in from the NFL?

[Cr1028]

Not good with Fuente

Rod Rust came in from Stanford. When he was fired, he took a pro coaching job. Same with Matt Simon.

So technically I was right as he did coach in the NFL?

No, "brought in" is different than "going to".   

[greenminer]

@Jonnyeagle I was asking about a coach coming straight from NFL to Denton.  Not just any coach with previous NFL experience.

You are correct.  My mistake!

I don't know why some of you are so down on Charlotte. They have many of the same headwinds going against them that NT does. I expect they will increase the budget for their hire. As for NT, we have been treading the waters of assured mediocrity for too long. I'd rather the university move on and take a good shot at greatness. Take a successful coach from some lesser program, if there is such a thing.

Follow the path of Basketball and Softball. No P5 retreads please.

I would like to see us take a look at Garrett Riley, or perhaps former UNT Coach Ryan Walter’s.

Here's another option for a proven G5 winner that will be looking to bounce back:

When I grow up, I want to be a fired FBS Head Football Coach. That contract buy out is nice. Harsin could sit on his ass for a few years if he wanted.

unless the wheels fall off he will be back

Ditto.

If Alabama loses here to Ole Miss maybe we can bring Saban in.  Sell it as a redemption job like when Kiffin was at FAU.

[Pellom]

I think we can cross Colby Carthel off the list. 😂
