I am actually excited that a PAID CONSULTANT can come in here and do some work on this program and highlight what needs to be done and how to approach it.

I would like to see Gene Stallings, Hayden Fry, or a good ole Texan come in here and fire everyone up and shake things around.

What do you think Mean Green Nation?

I think keep the current coach. If he sucks next year you can open the stadium with the excitement of a new coach. If you fire Dodge now and the new coach sux next year, we may open the new stadium to little fanfare

I think a new coach sends the right message & will excite our fanbase. Another 2-10 season would be devastating.

Choose your future. Choose life... But why would I want to do a thing like that? I chose not to choose life. I chose somethin' else. And the reasons? There are no reasons. Who needs reasons when you've got heroin playmaker?

Consultants are vastly over-rated. Use of a consultant in a lot of cases is just an indication that folks are reluctant to make decisions.

In a case like this, the only reason for a "consultant" would be to have someone to blame if the new coach didn't work out. Like all ADs, RV has a short list of coaches for all sports ready at all times.

More importantly, while I am sure he will be keeping that list updated, I don't believe he is going to be pulling a new football coach off that list this year.

How about a thread about how different the program would have been if Rod Rust had managed a winning season in '72?

I think you've already started a consultant loving thread. You have a man crush on some consultant somewhere. Most of the rest of the world just see consultants in the same light as corporate CEO's and politicians.

I think that Dodge's prospects have gotten better at remaining the HC at UNT for another year since Playmaker is so sure that he won't be back.

I really dont know if he will be back or not, but speculation is that he will be released, Dodgie himself mentioned that he doesnt believe that he will be back, a college football coach would never say that, because it could cost him in recruiting.

Also every thread on the first page of the football forum is in regards to coaching changes, who the new hire should be, and other teams firing their coaches.

I would like to see assistant athletic director Hank Dickenson involved in the process of finding the next coach. Hank makes it a point of knowing the players. He understands the players and they really like and RESPECT Hank as well.

I think you misinterpret the comment.

"I really don't know," Dodge said. "I will sit down with coach Villarreal when the season is over with. At this point I don't know. He will let me know."

That means he doesn't know, not that he does not think he will be back. If your company is doing poorly and the possiblity of layoffs comes up, you would say the same thing.

There sure are a lot of Texans to choose from. Who's got ideas. Personally, I'd like to nominate Mike Peters of Liverpool, TX. He's the mayor, seems to be a good dude, and oh good god.

Any other ideas?

Well, Tom Schieffer, formerly with the MLB Texas Rangers management during the George W. Bush partial ownership era, just quit the gubernatorial race yesterday, and he may have plenty of spare time. He's been named in one of the all time famous (infamous?) sports transactions to come out of the Lone Star State:

      Auburn warns of potential ticket price hike ahead of revenue-sharing model

      There are probably 10 levels of donors and fans for a college athletic program. Anyone from a 70-year-alum always a supporter, to businessman only for advertising, to mom & dad only while son is going there, to corporate CEO wanting a name on a building, to t-shirt fans who just like the Flying Worm, etc. At P4 schools when the AD says they need cash, usually someone Big or a lot of smaller someones steps up. At our level I think it's more difficult to predict the donors and level of donations. I think it's also more difficult to find donors willing to give blindly to a non-specific NIL fund than to a specific building fund.

      Two more home games before students are back, then hopefully the athletic department is going all out to try to compete with last year's record-breaking numbers.

      Auburn warns of potential ticket price hike ahead of revenue-sharing model

      In traditional professional football, when teams pay players and have a losing season, the teams still make $$$ and turn a profit. Thus they can afford to continue to pay players. In today’s college football, when boosters pay players NIL and the team has a losing season, the boosters lose money AND they don’t get to experience the joy of being associated with a winner. Will those boosters keep donating NIL? Do you have to find new boosters? Don’t you eventually run out of boosters? Just don’t see how this NIL model is sustainable. Rich people didn’t get rich by losing money and I don’t see how you can keep asking them to do that via NIL. The revenue sharing model WILL work and it will be interesting to see what percentage of revenue is ultimately allocated to labor. The NBA gives 51% of gross revenue to players. The other major professional leagues give less. But why would colleges give players anything close to that? College players are infinitely replaceable. People root for their school and as a consequence of that, root for the players competing for that school. But if the Top 100 players in college football disappeared overnight, would the popularity of the sport suffer at all? I don’t think it would. Offer the players minimum wage, make them sign binding contracts with buyouts and non-competes (assuming you can still enforce those: that is another rabbit hole). NIL will still exist but won’t be as big of a deal because of the contracts and buyouts. If a players thinks he is too good for this system, they can start their own football league or wait until they are eligible for the NFL. Why wouldn’t this work?

      I don’t know how much they care. It’s like monopoly money. Many of them are just borrowing from Uncle Sam and hoping they don’t have to pay it back.
