I didn't intend to post it until after the WKU or Troy games.

I've included former college head coaches with some track record of winning. The list is in no particular order, and I have no favorites. I'm simply in the school of thought that believe an experienced driver needs to be at the wheel of this thing.

In compiling the list, I was surprised by the number of guys I'd forgotten about. Among them Ty Willingham, Karl Dorrell, Jeff Jagodzinski...guys who didn't necessarily lose, but who were at bigger place and had much more expected of them. Other were dumped because of unrealistic, unappreciative fanbases/administrators/boards of directors - Paul Pasqualoni, Philip Fulmer, Rocky Long, Gary Gibbs, etc.

The one odd guy I've included in there is former New York Giants head coach Jim Fassell. The guy's coaching in the UFL, for crying out loud! He wants to coach somewhere. Why not here? This guy would be confused by his Sun Belt colleagues? Nah. Give him a call just for the hell of it, RV.

Anyway, have fun with the list.

I wouldn't think he'd be anywhere near Leach on most hiring AD's preference lists. Leach had success year after year, Croom had one successful year as HC. What's he doing now, anyway?

He's a RB coach for the St. Louis Rams. Sure he didn't win a bunch of games, but if you think UNT is a coaching wasteland, try Mississippi State. The fact that he could put together that great 2007 season against SEC competition with their resources says something.

I'm not saying he's a bad prospect, not at all. It's just that several AQ schools are likely to be banging on Leach's door, issues and all, while I doubt Croom is receiving that kind of consideration for open HC positions.

Croom was at Miss State...when you are in the bottom feeders of the SEC it is virtually impossible to do any damage and get known. Croom would be a heck of a hire. He had awesome defenses at MSU and he can recruit not only Texas but a region where some of the best athletes come from. I saw at least bring him in for an interview.

      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.
