Name Dropping:

Former Texas Tech coach Mike Leach

Former Texas A&M coach Dennis Franchione

Oklahoma co-offensive coordinator Jay Norvell

Oklahoma co-offensive coordinator Kevin Wilson

Former Southern Mississippi coach Jeff Bower

Ole Miss assistant head coach Tyrone Nix

Former Louisville and Tulsa coach Steve Kragthorpe

Oklahoma State offensive coordinator Dana Holgorsen

Auburn assistant head coach Trooper Taylor

Texas running backs coach Major Applewhite

Oklahoma running backs coach Cale Gundy

Dallas Cowboys linebackers coach Reggie Herring

TCU co-offensive coordinators Jarrett Anderson and Justin Fuente

Florida State defensive coordinator Mark Stoops

I think someone should start a poll with these names on it for voting... hint, hint!

Would certainly make it easier to get a pulse of who we all would like to have as our next coach.

It looks like a solid list to me. I'm not sure how big of coach North Texas can get. No current coach (Div 1) will leave their current job to come to UNT. And lots of good hires have been made by picking up and coming assistant coaches (of course, picking the right one is hard).

Not impressed with that list? Add Todd Dodge and his resume prior to UNT to it and see how it compares.

No, I'm not. It's boring. I don't care about past coaching searches...just this one.

We have $100 million worth of Athletics facilites across the highway, with the new stadium as the crown jewel, and we should attempt to make as big a splash with this hire as possible. We have a golden opportunity to change the face of NT Athletics here. I don't hate the candidates on Phillips' list, I just think there are a number of higher profile hires that we can explore making before getting down to most of the guys on this list. The majority on that list are uninspiring and would do little to create a buzz about NT if hired here.

      Sonny Dykes?

      I mentioned it in the thread regarding other scores around Texas, but in the end it is SMU/TCU and not NT related. That's your reason we aren't discussing it, and the same reason SMU fans are on our board and we aren't on their's. They have this deep desire for approval from others and we don't care. I did see it as I had switched over from watching Ark/Auburn to check the score. SMU kicked off and TCU returned it for a TD. The refs called TCU for holding and it was a terrible call. This was in the first half when the game was still close. Taking six points off the board was costly at that time and Dykes was pissed. He was warned a couple of times by the refs drawing penalties, but he wouldn't shut up. Maybe he saw the writing on the wall, but he also had every right to be pissed. TCU folded after that.

      ***Official Wyoming vs UNT Game Thread***

      I think with Svoboda they are looking/hoping for the second coming of Josh Allen. He has the size and that's it. I think I would run with their freshman out of Southlake from here on out. The KO return: Tyler King was the return man and is a transfer out of TX Tech. They talked about him on the broadcast. He played HS ball in Houston for Alief Taylor and was a four star recruit listed as the No. 59 WR in the '22 class by ESPN and the No. 61 player in the state of Texas and, as we all saw, a real burner. How did we not get a hold of this kid? He only caught two balls in his career at Tech and was never a factor in the passing game vs. us, so he may be a poor route runner. Just a guess. He runs like he just pissed off his Mama. Shane Whitter #7 delivered that hit and had a very strong game for us.
