Now that this is well on its way to another blow out, I think I'll spare my sanity and turn it off. How many times do we have to be embarrassed before the athletic department realizes that this is never going to work with this coach?

When we fire Benford does Andrew leave as well?

If everyone on here would just show up to games and support the team maybe things would be different. The players respect the coach and vice versa. You cannot just pick one to want to get rid of. Sup

It's not the 100% determining factor on if a team wins or loses. Benford is doing nothing different then any other coach and the players respect him. I know this for a fact and I would bet if you ask

Just curious, but when would you suggest Benford isn't getting it done? Would it be 5 years of this, 10 years? 15?

If this season does not work out and people think he needs to go I am fine with that. The team does not need people during the season riding the coach. An attack on the coach is an attack on the team. So it's also an attack o the players. He will not be here 10 years. He will either loses it within three years or find success and be taken away much quicker then Johhny because he is more highly regarded around the league. Most likely the first option will happen. My point is people need to just support them and when the season ends make the tough decisions.

Andrew, don't you think we're overpaying for Benford?

I mean, since you think the players pretty much suck, shouldn't we just hire a new coach at a fraction of the price?

This is even more laughable. When did I ever say the players suck? In fact it is the exact opposite when they come on here and read the posts. I will send you the rest in a private message but you are very wrong.

They work together to overcome diversity and they do not need people riding their cases.

Yeah!! That damn diversity. Always gets in the way. Finally we agree on something. Diversity sucks and must be overcome!

play defense without fouling... just play defense without fouling. we literally have committed nearly 3x the fouls latech has...

This is a frustrated team. I think they see the season falling apart and perhaps very few wins between now and the end of the season.

Well it's weird that in every spot...ever...the best coaches have the best teams. Is that just a coincidence? Yeah, diversity is hard to overcome. Still blaming the 2014 white man I'm sure.

what does this even mean?

So according to you we are as "good as anyone" in the first halves, but the second halves kill us and that is NOT coaching?

      That’s very impressive. Let’s NIL their director.

      The Band

      Thats fantastic. They should have their own unique uni's with their school colors. Or at least have some sort of insignia on their NT uniforms. I have written MANY TIMES to the school of music expressing my concerns about the Green Brigade. Daniel Cook actually ask me to watch a practice where they debuted the North Texas fanfare. Something that he either composed himself or had someone in the school of music compose. Daniel (Dr?) Cook inherited a pretty crappy version of the Green Brigade. The most significant change he made was the fanfare. The rest is CRAP. The Band is unwieldy and bloated, and the best word (besides crap) to describe the pre-game show is "perfunctory". They just go through the (musical) motions. At the Army game, as the Band was at mid-field playing the fight song I stood up and did the traditional clapping along with the band, but I kept yelling "TEMPO! TEMPO! GET THE DAMN TEMPO UP! Get to the middle of the field with energy and forgodsakes STOP PLAYING THE "AMERICAN EMBLEM MARCH". That is Junior High stuff. THIS is what a College Band looks like......or is SUPPOSED TO LOOK LIKE. This is the closest thing to what the North Texas Band used to look like in the 60's-early 70's, under the late, great Maurice McAdow........only the McAdow Bands played better than these guys. But everything else (including the Uniforms) were pretty much the same. So I ask, do they have more talented musicians than us? Do they have more pride than us? I'm interested in hearing from "letsgiveacheer" about this.

      I know you're just trying to start a conversation, but he's 73. Might as well try to get Saban.
