That can't be right. How the hell is Anthony Evans on the hot seat already ?

Maybe there is more to the story who knows. Or he has a cheap contract. Generally takes 2 or 3 years. Of course if Benford was make 100k a year it would be easier to make a decision.

Hey, I'm not tryingto support Andrew because he does throw some crazy stuff out there, and he does fan the flames, but he also said it best. I don't know why it's not working, but it's not working.

I think it just comes down to benford not being able to motivate the players to do what he wants them to do. I think dodge kind of suffered from the same thing.

I hope smastresk won't allow us to keep him another year at the very least. We have got to get somebody in here that can get the most out of these guys before we really stop getting talent in here.

My vote is still for Danny kaspar, but I would also love to get the current sfa coach if a bigger program doesn't poach him.

The new SFA coach is doing it with Kaspar's players. No bigger program will look at him until he does it 2 or 3 years down the line (if they are smart).

Kaspar would be my choice. We win 20 last year if he was coaching that talent.

Instead we settle for an unknown. Again. And tear apart an up and coming basketball program.

Brilliant.

Guess what? Lutz will never happen because if/when Benford goes, the whole 'failed assistant experiment' will be thrown right back in our faces. Look for a re-tread. Hopefully a good one...

The money is there.. the question is going to be best candidate available or going back to the pool of established coaches...

Mac is a hell of an example that a "retread" can work. The problem is that who is that in the basketball coaching ranks right now?

Instead of talking about defense and rebounding, Kaspar coached teams actually went out and did it.

Lack of defense and rebounding kill good shooting teams, and destroy bad shooting teams like the one we had last year.

Good defense and rebounding can make a poor shooting team have a better shooting percentage (lay up opportunities off of offensive boards, break away lay up opportunities from steals) while limiting the shooting percentage of the other team.

Kaspar would have been the perfect short term coach for last year's team.

Crappy defense has been my biggest Benford disappointment among many.

I think SMU is another great example that if you put the money in and hire the right coach great things can happen.

      Is this what an “offensive genius” looks like?

      The defense was disastrous last night but stop with this "offense did enough to win" crap. A 3 and out and interception in the first 2 drives is not doing enough to win. Were it not for a defensive stop after the onside kick and a Porter 79 yard run, we'd have been down 21-0 and counting. Yes, the defense needs to do more but what high powered offense puts up 7 in a half? This team did the same crap last year. No offense in the first half and then when we put up garbage time points people say "look at the offense." The offense is bordering bad. Tulsa put up 46 on UTSA. Texas State put up 49 and even Rice put up 29. Just to show you where our "high powered offense" stands.

      ***OFFICIAL UNT vs. UTSA IN-GAME DISCUSSION***

      Atrocious in "all 3 phases" (that onside kick was a film study discovery by UTSA) but E Morris is just a horrible game manager. Just stupid decisions on multiple levels. I wish we weren't in the bowl hunt so Caponi could be fired if at least as a symbolic action to show the rest of the staff (minus Cobbs) they need to step it up a bunch. To the decision making, it's all been said. The timeout at 2nd and 16 with 49 seconds to go when most offenses would just let the clock run out to close the half, not taking reasonable field goal attempts early on, poor playcalling (honestly surprised a screen didn't get intercepted), these things fall on Eric Morris. Just garbage level game management. It's like he's playing a video game where there's no real consequences. Time of possession was about 39 to 21 in UTSA's favor. I know Porter had huge runs but UTSA also had huge plays. Why is it that others are capable of sustaining drives and eating clock but our "elite" offense can't do so? Defenses aside, you'd think our supposed top notch offense could be more consistent. I know our defense needs to make stops more consistently but anybody please tell me why our offense isn't capable of having some 6 or 7 minute scoring drives? Morris needs to relax on the pace of game. Just idiotic at this point.
