Why is Dickey so bitter about getting fired? Refusing to talk about the firing, the black uniforms, the all-black coaching outfit, his buddy Mattress Mac crying to the media …

Dickey’s getting paid $500,000 to not coach UNT. He has been mailing it in the last two seasons. I would forgive our record the last two seasons if I thought Dickey was trying to improve the program, but the horrible recruiting classes, the inability to develop the talent he has, the regression of key players, the undisciplined penalties, his negative attitude towards UNT and the unimaginative play-calling convinced me otherwise. You’d think Dickey would be ok with getting paid to walk away.

I don't know, but this stuff with the all-black uniforms for himself and his team -- as if they are in mourning -- is such a bush-league thing to do I'm glad he's gone.

I think it is more DD and RF are absolutely clueless that they were doing a sh***y job of recruiting and coaching. Like many people who get fired they are oblivious to there wrongdoings, preferring to only see their little world.

If he didn't want to get fired why didn't he give maximum effort the last two seasons? Do you think he did? I don't. 2002 Dickey vs. 2006 Dickey is like 2004 Jamario vs. 2006 Jamario. They are not the same.

Should Dickey be allowed to coach next week if he put the team in black uniforms without RV's permission?

Nope keep DD/RF/Etheridge all at home and let Evans coach with the selected GA's and show us how to coach and win a game.

I honestly felt sorry for the guy when I saw him walk off the field with his head down. This really was a tough year for him.

Too bad Bobby Knight wasn't on the field, to lift his spirits.

      Recognition: Thanks MG Teams

      I dont respond much, but I read your posts. Easy for people to point out problems, a loss, holes in defense or missed buckets, etc. Yet, the teams have really stepped up lately. We may have lost a few but i see the hustle and grit. And that impresses me. Ladies BBall broke down in 4th Q, but found a way to win against Memphis. Playing well in the AAC thus far. 11-4 and 3-0 in conf. looks nice. Mens BBall lost to Memphis, but played with heart. Sissoko, Newell and Walker in particular. Great effort. I also think Floyd managed the game, solid performance at the point. Football - I didnt know what to expect in the bowl game. Great effort. I am in Austin and wearing the logo on consistent basis. received a lot of input from others after that game. Stinks to come close and lose, same as with the last Boise game in Frisco. But proud of the team. So THANKS MEAN GREEN !!! Looking forward to Soccer, Softball and Diving/Swimming, Golf, etc.

      Attendance question

      Here's my take on the First Responders Bowl. * I thought they did a fantastic job honoring first responders from all lines of work throughout the game. Very impressive presentation for people that deserve to be recognized. * Location isn't terrible and Ford Stadium is fine, but I had to shower four times to remove the SMU stench. * Concessions were pretty good although it would have been nice to know if advance that they were not accepting cash. * Would have been nice to have First Responder Bowl souvenir cups instead of the stupid "Pony Up" cups. Nobody's taking those home. * Nice taking the train, walking over and then getting out quickly. This was managed well by whoever is in charge of getting people from the station safely across Central Expressway. * In spite of all of the above, $100 plus for sideline seats to this bowl/matchup was ridiculous.

      Attendance question

      The anecdotal evidence I heard from people was that it was "too expensive" and "not an impressive matchup" or "we are just going to lose"

      Chandler Rogers on the move again

      I generally share this sentiment but it was actually new news this time. And you haven't moved on from UNT rejecting your admissions application 35 years ago, yet they still let you post.

      You're talking to people who haven't moved on from SMU maybe kinda sorta dissing them 50 years ago when NTSU allegedly got rejected from the SWC.
