I wonder what assistant he is recommending. Not sure it would be Forrest, Jones has an eternity with Leonard and a lot of time with Foy. I would certainly want Jones' input and I think it would be particularly meaningful if he is pushing Forrest for the job over his long time assistants.

You can bet he is pushing Forrest. He connects with the players the best of the current staff. I don't think Charlie wants to be a head coach. I know Foy was good at Paris, but I just don't see him as the head coach. I think if Forrest is the HC, then I think Charlie and Lister will stay. Don't know about Foy. FYI, he was not with the group at lunch, but Forrest was.

I know this is Basketball and not Football. But I remember the last time a successful coach left North Texas (Fry) and recommended one of his assistants to replace him (Brashier). We (the Fry-hating administrators) didn't listen then, and the rest is history......and not a fun history either.

I really think it's time for us to stop making decisions based on the ghosts of yesteryear.

If making a decision and it going badly was the only reference point for NT athletics we'd never make another decision.

I hope Charlie stays. I hope Charlie stays. On a personal note- I've developed a nice friendship with him.

      McGill scored in the 2nd Quarter.

      That was the start of three terrible calls from the officials. Don’t forget the PI that wasn’t to extend that next drive. Then the fumble that got stolen. Pretty clear who the conference wanted to win that game. Still, the game was there for us to take and the failures in the red zone are 100% within our control.

      Seems the bye week came at a bad time...Morris just was off all game...so we're the receivers.

      This is our modus operandi. Every year we’re hopeful, but soon realize no matter how hard and fast you pedal, the stationary bike doesn’t get you across the street. We lack a culture that other prospects can hang their hats on. That’s a byproduct of the coach/AD you hire to lead.

      McGill scored in the 2nd Quarter.

      From my view of the second INT in the North end zone, it appeared there were two receivers running towards the left sideline. Morris threw to the trailing receiver. The receiver closer to the sideline was (wide?) open. GMG

      I’m surprised there hasn’t been much talk on here about this play. Not sure how many of you watched the game on TV, but I did. Watching the replay, I have no idea how the review refs could not see the ball break the plane before his knee went down. It looked pretty clear to me. A 10-7 lead there would have made a huge difference in the game. I know we all felt extremely confident in our offense scoring there (2nd & goal from the 1/4-yd line), but it didn’t happen, for whatever reasons. Massive miss there. Also the INT that was overturned by replay… another miss, even though we wound up forcing the punt. All that said, the game was decided on the 2 INTs Morris threw in the end zone. He simply can’t throw those.
