I heard on a sports talk show in Austin that Patterson was the Dark Horse for the K-State job. If that domino was to fall would it have implications down the line for DD?

Bennet to TCU DD to SMU? Maybe Flannigan to SMU?

Surely you jest? smile.gif But if not..........

If DD's 4 bowl games (that have some of our Regents in a state of DD hero worship) anyway, if those 4 BIG BOWL GAMES have not gotten Darrell Dickey even one listing as a serious candidate for other NCAA D1-A head football coaching vacancies the last 4 years, why after a (clearly visbile to most who will swallow a little pride to admit this); anyway, why after 8 years of under .500 production at UNT from DD and not one Top 60 OOC win, why would any of those you list, eally, be interested in DD now? At a normal school, he would be gone after his ASU loss. If he wins 4 games next year further widening an under .500 W/L differential , with the group we presently have making decisions at UNT, I'm not sure he would be gone even then. blink.gif

Also add that most "normal" NCAA D1-A football schools would sorta' like to hire someone that has the proven ability (or serious potential) to take their program to a Top 25 standing. After 4 bowl games with DD, UNT still can't even smell or see the Top 25 in the distance. And most schools out there by now know you just won't get such a coach's job if they were to hire Darrell "But I Went To 4 Bowl Games" Dickey. ph34r.gif

Jeez! Are we part of a new Twilight Zone episode at UNT with all this? sad.gif

GOD BLESS TEXAS!

Patterson isnt going anywhere. Bennett isnt going anywhere. I think SMU has turned the corner--- just in time to play us. Typical. In fact I would pick them to win 7 games next year. They have a ton of returning starters next year. They also ended their season beating Houston and UTEP... tell me, how close do you think we would have kept those games?

We should play SMU about as close as we did Tulsa. That should make our illustrious SMU grad Chancellor smile just to think about it. As to DD remember " it's just another OOC game, the season doesn't start till we get to the big bad SBC".

TCU wouldn't touch Dickey. The TCU supporters got organized a few years ago and now their program has direction. We're not organized.

I would vote for either of them if they will take the lead. We should take our rabble-rousing to a new level.

      Mike Mitchell Jr. was out. He's a starter and Minnesota could've really used his shooting. Not as familiar with the other players but they're reserves. This game was a big data point for the Massie over Newell position!

      Awesome win! The only bad part was the commentary from the TV announcers. They confused Newell and Lorient for an extended period of time, stated that Atin Wright originally played at Washington State, and clearly barely knew anything about our program. The play by play announcer gave major 'and boom goes the dynamite' vibes. Some thoughts on the game: - The defense was stellar as we've all come to expect. Delo and Massie were great playing multiple matchups. - Minnesota came out and blitzed our PnRs. We really struggled with the pressure. Eventually we started slipping screens and setting brush screens to counteract it. - Trey Edmonds in the second half forced us to play big. He has a grown man body. Hodge settled on a Lorient/Sissoko combination to match Garcia/Edmonds. - An extended run with a Floyd/Walker/Massie/Lorient/Sissoko lineup including to close the game aside from situational subs. Before the season I would've been shocked that this lineup would close a win on the road against a Big Ten school because of the offense. The spacing was predictably an adventure. Massie wasn't efficient but he kind of made the lineup 'work'. He shows handling, passing, and court awareness in the half court. Feels like he could turn into a secondary ball handler in lineups. - Atin Wright had a meh game by his standards, but still really excited about him this season. He's a bit of a showman and I love it. After getting fouled in transition, he slapped the ball away from the defender and stared at him. On Lorient's massive jam at the end of the game, you can see him standing over Edmonds (who was on the ground). GMG

      Still just a bit, but a sad one because it seems like a ceiling and not a floor.

      I will say that if we take care of business Utah State would like to have a say in that conversation. Lol

      Most uneducated post I read was someone saying we could end up being a quad 3 blemish on the gophers tourney resume. 🤦‍♂️ gotta keep winning games like this. Only way to get past the stigma.
