My take: I don't think we should be paying for a coach that throws in the towel during the season, no matter how bad it gets.

MOOT!

You can't be serious! He can't be letting practices out early! Sweet Christ almighty, this isnt the time for that!

If anything, he needs to be busting tails out there.

Agreed, but what he SHOULD be doing and what me IS doing, may very well be two different things.

Off subject, but MeanGreenDork's "NT" helmet icon is one helluva' good looking football helmet. Hellsbells! I hope that doesn't start the 1,000'th thread on how we arrange the 2 letters "N" and "T".......

GOD BLESS TEXAS...

It really takes the air out of my nearly already deflated sails to hear that while I still have faith, the head coach sounds like he does not

El Gaupo thinks some of you should read this:

El Guapo also wonders if people notice that practices are usually shorter at the end of the year?

Now, if you'll excuse him, El Guapo has a payroll-laden mail train out of Ft. Worth to catch.

Hadn't seen El Guapo in a while. Thanks for gracing us with your words of wisdom. And those helmets do work!

Well, I can't argue with the fact that the government is using satellites for brain control, but....

Maybe you missed this:

practices are jokes

That worries me more than getting let out early, if this is true. And considering the source I'm inclined to believe it.

SilverEagle · November 18, 2005

Well, "letting out practice early" and "practices are a joke" are not the same thing.

It could be that DD has decided that his usual "grueling" practices (especially in the spring and fall) haven't produced the results that he had hoped for. So maybe since the championship is no longer a possibility, he's trying something different.

For athletics, it's "NT" since that's what on the helmets, the jerseys and a lot of the fan gear. I dunno...the current helmet is okay, but maybe the Eagle wouldve been better or just "NT" in the font they're using now. It's hard to read "North Texas" with the way the helmets are right now.

Agreed.

Maybe we should put a green eagle on a black helmet if baylor is going to continue to wear green helmets. (tho Id like to see the same green helmet with a white eagle). And why wouldnt they? they seem to enjoy "aquiring" our other traditions, such as the battle flag. Idiots.

Oh, sorry for jacking the thread, just read back to the original post and realize it has nothing to do with what I am typing.

We will know tomorrow night around 7pm if DD has mailed it in.

Come on, he's won four conference titles. He deserves to throw in the towel after 8 games. What's the problem?
