After watching this game and the apathy from the team and the fans, and with a bye week, I say Monday.

He may get reassigned

At the very least RV needs to do what Minnesota did. Inform TD that he won't be back next season and make it public. At that point it is a foregone conclusion and you can still publicly and actively look for the new head coach and TD can prob still coach the rest of the season out.

To clarify lets say fired = the announcement that Dodge won't be head coach.

I fully expect RV to make the announcement and let TD coach out the rest of season. We're not going to tar and feather the guy, we just don't want him running the team.

You need to add "reassigned on Monday" as an option to this poll. That's my guess.

Reassigned and fired is the same when it comes to Dodge. As long as he is not HC of the football team and rv starts a serious search.

No. A thousand times No. Nothing good can come of firing someone and then letting them have day to day contact with the team they will not be coaching the next season. We have already seen this occur once and have heard about the split that occurred the next couple of seasons.

Coach Dodge seems to be a good person, but you just cannot afford to leave him in the locker room if he knows he is gone after this year. Make the break clean. If you reassign him, reassign him outside the football program, and better yet outside the AD.

I see no merit in terminating Dodge before his successor has been hired. I don't see any current coach on the staff as a valid candidate, so nothing is gained by an interim coach.

The problem is firmly RV's now. He is frankly lucky to still be AD after the Dodge hire and another bad decision could spell the end for him as well. RV has made some very good recent decisions in hires for the non-revenue sports and hopefully he can do the same in football. RV certainly has plenty of time to come up with a solid replacement HC.

I think a even better question is " who gets fired 1st , TD or Wade ? "

Same person?

Numerous late hit penalties, bad special teams play, undisciplined play.....

      TX State to the PAC 2?

      This gets the PAC to their first goal of full football membership before 2026. It also paves the way for entry into Texas. Perhaps at the suggestion of media advisors? Further expansion later to set up a possible Eastern Division of the PAC is predicted by several fan forums. PAC West: Wash St, Ore St, Fresno St, Boise St, Utah St, SDSU PAC East: Colo St., Texas St, "X", "X", "X", "X"

      I believe Army has been a positive addition to AAC football as far as the ESPN media contract viewership. Especially with the great football season they just had. UNT has had several games on mainline ESPN channels in both football and basketball this school year. I would say the most in a single season in our athletic history. I don't think they would have elevated us if we didn't warrant it with ESPN.

      TX State to the PAC 2?

      TxSt is at the right place, at the right time. Tulane and Memphis said no, UNLV and AFA got tied down to the MWC for extra money, it looks like the PAC doesn't want to bring up an FCS school, the AAC options come with a $27M exit fee hurdle. Who else is out there? NMSU? SHSU? The PAC needs to have an 8th full member before July 1st 2026 to keep their FBS designation. They don't have time to wait for options. They need to get schedules, and media partners settled. TxSt pays $5M to get out of the SBC, a very accessible number.

      TX State to the PAC 2?

      Agree, everything will depend on the dollar amounts. $12M a team and I think we see some teams making the jump, personally I'm just not sure if they can get much more than what the AAC gets. If the AAC media deal does drop significantly in 2032 I would expect teams to move then, plus you would have no exit fees since you are in between contracts similar to how the Pac12 fell apart. We'll see soon enough who their media partner will be, and what kind of appetite they have for content.
