His offense was terrible at Mississippi State last year. He took over an Air Raid offense and did a poor job. Mississippi State was ranked 101 in team offense last year.

I'd never down vote you for having an opinion. And he seems okay to me, but Morris is our guy and we can't give up on him after one substandard season. I like Morris and do hope he can bring his defensive standard up to his offensive standard.

Besides Barbay is also an air-raid guy, the offense probably wouldn't be that different, Again, the defense is our problem.

You wanted us to hire a guy whose highest level of experience was 1 year as App State’s OC? Yikes. 

2005–2006 Baylor (GA)
2007–2008 Texas A&M–Commerce (QB/WR)
2009 North Texas (GA)
2010–2011 Warren HS (TX)
2012–2013 Lamar (WR/ST)
2014 Colorado State (DPP)
2015–2017 Florida (DPD)
2018 Stephen F. Austin (OC/QB)
2019–2020 Central Michigan (AHC/WR)
2021 Central Michigan (OC/QB)
2022 Appalachian State (OC/QB)
2023 Mississippi State (OC/QB)
2024–present Houston (OC/TE)

 

I'll say this, he doesn't stay at one place very long.  Maybe he just wanted to get back to his home State of Texas all those years.  It will be interesting to see how he does at Houston.

I think previous HC experience and being in the Leach tree were priorities going into our hire.

I am curious what inspired this thread.  Maybe you see something special.

I just want to be clear that I didn’t downvote you for the post. I downvoted you for the title of the post and it felt good, so thank you for that.

Most assistant coaches resumes look like they are running from the law.

Yet, the Defensive Coordinator from last year remains the DC this year.  That is on the HC.

If the DC salary is such we couldn’t afford to fire him (if Morris wanted him gone, doubt it) then that is on whoever negotiated it as a 2-year deal to begin with.

It’s also on fans and the AD for not giving/getting enough funds to make needed adjustments.   A$M gave Jimbo $80 mil to be gone.  That’s crazy, but that’s how crazy their donors and supporters are.

Good point.  Look, I can make this thread go away for good, and only post once a week on GMG..........for $1.5 million.  Deal?

What I do like is that Morris is doing this his way on his terms. He will own our success or failure. 

Yesterday he mentioned that at WSU they really got clicking in year 3. Year 2 was an improvement and year three they were competing for the Pac 12 title. 

I’m hopeful and glad he is making himself accountable.

Do you mean Incarnate Word? Because he wasn’t at WSU for 3 consecutive seasons.

He must have been referring to WSU 2014-2016 seasons, but he wasn’t there then.  He was receivers coach there in 2012 and OC in 2022.  Neither were great conference years.

So he was trying to take credit for the Harrell/Filani years.

I didn't hear the context of his statement;  only what was posted by NM Green.  He simply could have been trying to state that a sequence of improvement normally happens?  

NM Green stated "he mentioned that at WSU they really got clicking in year 3. Year 2 was an improvement and year three they were competing for the Pac 12 title."    

Here is WSU's season and conference records...

      So sick of the crap this football program slings us

      We do alright with the North Texas chant sometimes, we just need to make it a staple and I think people will do it.

      State fans showed up because they rightfully expected to win in this game. If the AD thinks they're going to depend on people to show up just cause NT has a team there, they are dead wrong. There are a few, but there are many many more who will not show up when they don't think their team will win. There are too many obligations and opportunities to devote precious time and money watching a team lose.

      After Morris and Sheffield transferred, how many here were actually expecting to win? Many of us were just hoping TXST didn't handle us like they did UTSA this year or Rice in last year's First Responder Bowl. Sure, it's the head coach's job to have his team ready to play and in position to win regardless of the adversity faced, but it's still incredible the performance Mestemaker had. Tonight was better than any game C. Morris has had since Memphis. Coastal Carolina lost their starting QB to the portal and got dog walked in their bowl game against UTSA in their own building. Yes, the loss increases our bowl futility streak to an active high, and it sucks to lose to an intrastate program in an inferior conference, but that shouldn't take away from Drew's game. The biggest disappointment to me was how badly we were outnumbered by TXST fans. We went from packing the lower level of the Cotton Bowl to being matched ON OUR OWN SIDE. Like our team, our fans also struggle to wear green. However, there should be optimism surrounding next season. Eric made a poor hire with his first DC obviously, but made the tough (but right) call in getting rid of him. Next year's presumed starter will be in his last year of eligibility, so no losing another 4000 yard passed before the bowl game. If we struggle to another 6/7-win season and bowl loss with next year's schedule, I think Eric's seat should be pretty hot again.

      So a lot of you think that NT is not deserving of your valuable fandom. I actually was proud of the team that continue to battle with a completely revamped lineup including a completely untested QB. Yeah and spare me the low expectations accusations that are usually leveled at anyone that dares to not rave and rant about a loss.
