I like Tom Dienhart a lot. However, if you could actually see anything about UNT there, you're a better man than me. That convoluted mess gave me a headache.

With due respect, there isn't a chance in the world of Gus Malzahn taking a job with a SBC school. Probably not any school from a non-AQ conference. Malzahn is one of the most respected OC's in the country and is going to be coveted by some of the big boys. And that probably doesn't include Minnesota. My dad's a Minnesota grad so I wish they would get their act together but with the exception of half a dozen years under Lou Holtz and Glen Mason, that football program has been mismanaged for decades.

As to Coach Fran, when somebody has that many miles on them, you better be careful to put a low-cost buyout clause in his contract for years four and five in the event he runs out of steam after year two or three.

Silly BCS schools, don't they know you have to have NCAA head coaching experience before you can be a successful NCAA head coach.

Assuming you're asserting that's what I said on another thread, that is incorrect. What I said was that I respect Bill King of Rivals Radio and his minimum qualification to be a head coach is substantial experience as either a head coach or an offensive or defensive coordinator at a level at which you have to concern yourself with the awarding of scholarships and APR. Malzahn's background meets King's requirement.
