I am stunned, there's not a thread about this. Has anyone ever witnessed a coach so unhinged, that he's thrown out of the game before? I know SMU hanging 66 on TCU, has to be very painful for some on here, but this is being talked about nationally, but for some reason ignored here. Dykes could be in trouble in Cowtown. Just two years ago, their magical season ends with Georgia putting 65 on them, and now SMU hangs 66 on the Frogs. It will be interesting, to see how TCU plays against Kansas this Saturday. SMU had a near sellout for the TCU game, and has Florida State coming to Ford this Saturday, that's crazy to even get your head wrapped around...the Seminoles and Mustangs?

it's not too relevant on the board... plus i haven't seen any video of the incidents?  did he do something egregious?

I look at national sports websites, watch college football highlights, and I haven't heard a peep about this.  I have no idea what you're talking about.

Your ponies aren't nearly as nationally relevant as you think they are.

I mentioned it in the thread regarding other scores around Texas, but in the end it is SMU/TCU and not NT related.  That's your reason we aren't discussing it, and the same reason SMU fans are on our board and we aren't on their's.  They have this deep desire for approval from others and we don't care.  I did see it as I had switched over from watching Ark/Auburn to check the score.  SMU kicked off and TCU returned it for a TD.  The refs called TCU for holding and it was a terrible call.  This was in the first half when the game was still close.  Taking six points off the board was costly at that time and Dykes was pissed.  He was warned a couple of times by the refs drawing penalties, but he wouldn't shut up.  Maybe he saw the writing on the wall, but he also had every right to be pissed.  TCU folded after that.

It was the opening kickoff of the second half and TCU was already down by 20.

TCU went ahead and scored anyway on that drive.  All they did to respond to that epic resurgence was surrender 17 straight unanswered to SMU to go down by 31.

Dykes is a clown and will be fired by the end of 2025.

I like Sonny, he seems to have grown to dislike SMU nearly as much as we do.

Maybe he can continue working his way down the DFW coaching ladder and get an analyst position under Morris at UNT after he gets canned next year.

      High Point (12/6/24)

      Tuesday at 6:00pm our next opponent High Point (8-1) takes their first road trip and visits nearby UNC-Greensboro (3-4) on ESPN+ UNCG is actually favored (-1.5).

      Breaking: North Texas set to Hire SHSU DC Skyler Cassity

      If I'm Cassity, going to Temple is my last resort. Period. This may have been more like a life preserver to Cassity. UNT's DC VS Temple's DC positions are vastly different, especially in the area of available talent pool. I really hope we're not needlessly shelling out much more $ than what he was making at SHSU. No reason for him to come to NT and immediately make as much as Caponi was.

      Is this a sign of desperation?

      It's like he and McCracken are one in the same.

      As I've said, I quit going to games in 2023. Just cannot stand what CFB has become for schools like ours. The portal did it for me. I don't like NIL, but I get it. Unfortunately, its easy to manipulate and SMU and other private schools can look like they belong with the power programs when they really wouldn't in any other time. But the portal is what makes it so easy to have this become a major problem. Transferring anywhere, like you are changing your job from working at Wendy's to going to work at Chili's the next day is an ender for me. If its gonna be this way, then treat the players as employees, let them pay taxes on their earnings, and be able to stay at the university for as long as they want--hell, Mason Fine, for example, could still be here if he wanted to be, under this umbrella. What I would love to see is simply for the power 24-48 to just move on and be the CFB Super Power, NFL-lite league. Then, let then next tier of 80-120 schools play a college football that looks like regular amateur college football. Include stipends, make players and the school sign a scholarship contract that is at least 2 years long, and if you leave for any school in this new level, you sit out a year, like before, but you cannot leave until your two years is up. Also, coaches and coordinators and staff get a salary limit that is across the board the same, like a salary cap. Make conferences regional and get back to CFB for this level to be what we are used to it being. We don't need to fool ourselves into believing we can compete financially with any current power league team.
