DeLoach to return as UNT defensive coordinator

01:07 AM CST on Thursday, January 24, 2008

By BRETT VITO / Denton Record-Chronicle

DENTON – Gary DeLoach is returning to UNT as defensive coordinator, a source close to the program said Wednesday.

DeLoach spent five seasons as an assistant coach at UNT from 1998 to 2002, and was the Mean Green's defensive coordinator his last three seasons.

UNT led the Sun Belt Conference in scoring defense and total defense in each of DeLoach's last two seasons in 2001 and 2002.

An announcement could be made Friday.

DeLoach spent the last five years as defensive backs coach at UCLA under Karl Dorrell, who was fired. Last season, UNT's defense finished last nationally, allowing 45.1 points per game under Ron Mendoza, who was fired.

Briefly ...

Robert Peachey, an offensive lineman who would have been a junior in the 2008 season, said he has left the team. Peachey, who started one game last season at left tackle, said he was not a good fit in coach Todd Dodge's offensive system. He plans to finish the semester, then decide if he wants to transfer to another school or stay and finish his degree. ... Freshman guard Josh White, UNT's leading scorer at 14.4 points a game, returned to practice Wednesday. White suffered a concussion and a cut above his right eye in a loss to Florida Atlantic on Saturday.

Dodge has covered his need well by getting GD back. There should be some improvement next year and a big jump after Deloach has a chance to work with the new talent in this year's class. Now, do you have Ramone's number?

I'm expecting big things from this team in 2009.

With it being Dodge's 3rd year, Deloach's 2nd, the system should be in place, the talent Dodge is bringing in should start to show dividends, and there should be a stadium well under construction.

it's all green and it's all good.

I guess I am delusional as I expect big things in 2008, I would assume many fans are tired of always playing the waiting game.

Yeah but we're losing a lot of players off this defense and none of them could start for Deloach's 2002 defense. I know the coaching was bad but the talent just wasn't there. And that was our "experienced" defense.

I predict a frustrated Deloach for the bigger part of next season. I would hate to be in film sessions with him.

I just think it will take a while for the players to "get it."

I hope I'm wrong, but realistically I think it's going to take a season.

WINNERS WIN NOW!!! LET SOMEONE ELSE BE ON THIS 3 OR 4 YEAR PLAN. NOTHING LESS THAN 6 OR 7 WINS IN 2008 IS ACCEPTABLE

DG, I'm wondering if you could make your feelings/expectations any more clear. B)

I nominate you to replace RV if he should leave NT anytime soon. ;)

We can only hope. Then maybe the program will go big time.

If Deloach coaches only half as well as he did in his 2002 year, we can probably expect a far better season (+3 wins) than last season. Now I can only imagine what he'll do when he's got his machine running at 100%.

Great news! We can now begin our uprising to being back on the college football map! We will have an outstanding offense no doubt, and a defense that will compliment that nicely. I think DeLoach has some good players to work with and he will put them in positions to succeed. He is a master of preparation and pays attention to details. Great job TD in bringing him back to Denton. Can't wait to hear about it at the banquet Saturday night.

Welcome aboard bstn, glad to have you. Coach Deloach built an amazing defense his last time here, arguably the best EVER, but he didn't do it overnight and everyone here needs to remember that. He knows there's a challenge with us losing so many guys this year. The fact that he knows that and is coming anyways tells you all you need to know about the man.

I agree. Our offense should be much improved and we may be in the same situation as last year - having to out gun a few opponents. However, I do think the defense will show improvement as the year progresses. The LB's are going to have to carry us and be very active. We do return Gilmore and Miller who will have to serve as the experience anchors on the line. As for the secondary, simply a change in scheme and the number of recruits and added competition will make them better. Hopefully the D will start hitting its stride as we approach conference because if memory serves me right our non-conference schedule will be tough on a young D.

I would not at all be surprised if our two transfer DBs that are now enrolled make an impact. Having all spring to learn the system will greatly accelerate their ability to make a difference for the D.

      First College Net Rankings released

      Nobody is putting Utah State 25 spots in front of UConn, it's not a poll ranking. It's just computer metrics, really not that deep. That said, there's a great website that shows you how every poll voter voted. It includes graphs and even highlights extreme picks when they put a team 5 or more spots away from their poll ranking. Several journalists voted USU in the top 25 along with UConn and Dayton both unranked. Who knows what their actual gap would be if those journalists ranked to 40. Below is the website. Click on a team to see that team's week-by-week ranking via graph, then scroll down to see where each journalist ranked that team. You can click on that journalist's name to see how they voted. I have fun on the website and hope you enjoy it as well! https://collegepolltracker.com/basketball/2024/week-5

      First College Net Rankings released

      let's try to get this thing back on the rails... Evansville (269) Minnesota (155) McNeese (75) Oregon State (49) Northern Iowa (167) Utah State (14) High Point (190) MVSU (364...literally dead last) App State (199) Houston Christian (347) I know it really showed through this year, but the next step in this program is clearly upping the non-con scheduling...especially if half the AAC teams are gonna be dragging down our NET rankings. I know the SEC/ACC; Big 12/Big East challenges are TV/ESPN driven, but it'd be incredible if the AAC could have a similar set up with another solid basketball conference like the A-10, WCC, MVC, MWC...surely ESPNU would chip in a turkey sandwich for that, right? anyone know if that McNeese game is a home/home? if they can keep these levels, that'd be a great add on the regular.

      You’re the poster child—as a fan, as a school—that is wrong with the current college football world. Congrats, trust fund kid. Your world seems so easy and fun to those of us who have worked our entire lives and support an Alma Mater that has no ability to compete in the current landscape. Yall can simply buy away our players and coaches. Thats garbage. Enjoy your team and your season. Seriously, never thought CFB would create a system ever again that your type of program could ascend in. You did it.
