Didn't Chico say Rodge is quicker (or maybe more elusive) than Grothe? Maybe he's just saying that, but I'd love for it to come true in a game.

Only concern about that video was that we had about 55 points on the board early in the 4th quarter last year against WKU...

that's what i was thinking. they ended with 35.

The difference here is that they didn't need 55 to win. They called off the dogs.

Here's what he brings to the table:

(1) He's coached in Clemson-type games, Kansas State-type games and can react to them. His biggest game plan hasn't been a high school playoff game. So, he's planned against the biggest and best at this level for a long time.

(2) Tight ends who might actually be a threat to receive a pass. (Goodness gracious...was Darrell Dickey right about Draylen Ross being a tight end? The college coach we hired named Canales seems to think so. Oh, silly Todd Dodge & high school coaching staff...switching the poor kid around to the defensive line, then offensive line. You've got to recruit defensive linemen at this level, geniuses. You can't just flip a big body over there like in high school. Ding dongs. Thank goodness for coach Canales, yo.)

(3) U-backs, to get every available talent on the field...to either run, catch, or block. A weapon. This is the Charles Clay-type back I talked about last year. And, to my credit, suggested using Micah Mosley in said roll - which Coach Chico was doing until Mosley was injured. Oh...oh...oh...dat Fake Lonnie...he do knows something about them footballs. Boooyah!

(4) The quarterback under center on short down and distance and goal line plays. Hallelujah! We got a coach that recognizes we're not lining up against Grapevine and Saginaw! Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-haw!

(5) Grape nuts.

don't get me wrong...i think canales is a way better option than dodge, but i was concerned when i saw they only had 21 with 10 minutes left and up by 8.

Shoot, that's a tie game if they were playing Arkansas St. :unsure:

Well, we'll see. If he flops here, the argument will then be his shortcomings have been masked by coaching at schools with tough defenses who bailed out his failing offense (Arizona/Mike and Mark Stoops, South Florida/Jim Leavitt).

Unfortunately, as much as I love DeLoach, Canales will need his offense to produce in order to be successful here.

I've sold out for him. So, I'll take my lumps as much as the people who sold out for Dodge three years ago thinking his high school offense and coaches would succeed.

One thing is for sure, though: Someone will be right, and someone will be wrong. And, we, the Mean Green fans, will suffer or celebrate at the end of it all. But, hey...that's life in the big city.

Flip a coin.

      Anyone else still rooting for Eric Morris?

      Ummm where did you see that UNT's endowment is that high? Also, I doubt we could have hired Sanders. If you're interested in that kind of a gamble, would you be interested in Jason Witten who appears to be following the Sanders path? We could be his Jackson State.

      I find this thread comical. A program that wouldn't even pursuit Sanders as he was getting ready to leave Jackson State. They held on to Littrell could actually win something in year 7 is going to kick out Coach ELF and his flashy offense after year 2? 🤣. You can't give tickets away because it is so poorly managed and underperforming. If I were tasked with actually sabatoging the program in a covert manner I couldn't do it better. I wouldn't think I would get away with hiring a coach with no college experience as my head coach and retaining another coach for 7 years with nothing to show for it. Hell why aim low, let's go get Jason Garrett. He has NFL experience. 🤣🤣🤣

      That is comical. 🤣 The only thing that makes things move in a capitalist soceity is money. And our Football program doesn't generate it. I refuse to continue to waste my time with a core fanbase that seems not to understand that. A fanbase that 💩on even the idea of pursuing a transcendent force with a home and other local tie in the North Texas region like Coach Sanders. Colorado Budget/Endowment: 2.3 Billion North Texas: 2.6 Billion Colorado Student Enrollment: 37k North Texas: 47 k There is no excuse for a program in a perfect position to reap the most benefit from Sanders jumping up from FCS to FBS for not pursuing Sanders PUBLICLY. Retaining Seth Littrell in the foolish misguided hope that he would go beyond 0.500 vs FBS competition in year 6 was a low aspirational budget conscious decision. It communicated to me this program doesn't care to sell more tickets nor win. Only when have ridiculous nationally embarrassing outing does this program respond with minimal conventional competency, making staffing moves. We wouldn't be debating this level of idiocy any fanboard for a respectable program. Who brings back the WORST DC in all of FBS for year 2 and NOT fire the head coach who wanted to give him another chance when he fails in year 2? My donations will go strictly to the academic side of the house from now on. Long story short if Eric Morris performs in a underwhelming fashion Morris and Jared need to be gone.

      The long snapper had an injury a couple of games ago. I don't think it was serious, but it may have some effect on the recent FG issues.

      G5 Rep up to #4 in latest CFP

      Yet they are placing us there via their ranking committee. Regardless, Tulane boxing the truck stops out of the playoffs entirely would be a nice shiny bow on an already unbelievable year.
