Joe Moglia

I heard this guy on the Jim Rome show today and he grabbed my interest. Could we be the team that gives this man a chance? Welcome to Ameritrade Mean Green Stadium? He would certainly be a fantastic head coach from a management side. He is learning Xs and Os again from Bo Pelini and Tom Osborne. If this guy brought in some bang up assistants, he could really get our ship moving with the new stadium. I bet he can fundraise better than everyone in our athletic dept combined. On top of that, he knows some very wealthy people.

Thoughts?

Let's start thinking realistically. Mike Leach, Jimmy Johnson, Barry Switzer, nor the ghost of Tom Landry is coming to North Texas until it is proven to have the resources(donors) to compete on a national level.

EDIT: The title was supposed to have a question mark on the end.

"Moglia will soon be applying for head coaching jobs. Hiring him would be a risk for athletic directors, which happen to be a very risk-averse breed. East Carolina’s AD, Terry Holland, told me that “the number one rule for all athletic directors is ‘At least win the press conference,’” and that hiring Moglia would “likely generate more questions than answers.”

No thank you. Enough with the experiments.

The same East Carolina that has won back to back CUSA championships with 9 wins the past two years and paying between $500k and $1M depending on perfomance bonuses?

It is easy to say pass when you are the reigning champ.

Realistically anyone we hire is going to be some degree of an experiment. Sounds like a long shot, but let the guy interview. Maybe he will blow em away. Shoot, we've been pretty happy with our AD and he's just a guy who owned a few Domino's Pizzas. :)

      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.
