PelvisPresley Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 I always thought Dodge would be a hit at North Texas...as they did...I figured he'd get his boy Riley up there QB'ing to start and then the Southlake kids and big Dallas kids (Highland Park, etc) would roll to him and it would become a power that way. I believe he thought that too...it didn't happen of course. He seems to have things going good now at Austin Westlake and his boy Riley now leading Southlake Carroll.

You can blame the incompetent UNT athletic department for giving him a small hiring budget. He brought a lot of high school coaches with him, and they were out coached. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sawboss Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 If it is the A&M Commerce Coach he should be available next Saturday afternoon. They catch Tarleton State again in the 2nd round of the DII playoffs, if they sneak up and beat Tarleton then SFA Alum and Head Coach Todd Whitten would be available. I am pulling for the A&M Commerce coach to get the job then. GO TEXANS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topher805 Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Those two are the favorites, but I'm not 100% sold it isn't someone else...I'm not on the crazy train expecting Traylor or a former FBS HC, but I'm not sold it will be Whitten or Carthel...

TTman7 Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Whitten didn't do so hot the last time he was at the FCS level. Sam was glad to get rid of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand, sometimes it is just not the right fit or maybe he was just not ready for that big of a stage. Often it takes some bumpy roads for a coach to settle in as they age and figure out a style that fits them. I personally think he will stay at Tarleton and help them make the move to the FCS level, at least there he would be doing with a foundation he already controls and is comfortable with.

Coach0001 Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 Whiten is also an SFA Alum He has Tarleton going. Carthel would look better in Orange someday wishful thinking. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PelvisPresley Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 As an East Texas guy that has coached all over in college in a smaller sport and got taken to bigger areas, etc...I don't care for Fayetteville at all (think it's actually tiny with very little to do, considering that area has now over a million people)...I think if you were a hunter/outdoors person you'd love the combo of high fulootin' with purty outdoorsy. If you're busy 24/7 coaching and recruiting it's hard to take advantage of that...or care about it. They do those rankings on the SEC Network constantly and yes, Fayetteville ranks super high on college towns to live in...again, I don't see it. There are hot college coed's EVERYWHERE (meaning nearly every campus...if you have sun and booze, then there are hot chicks...that describes the entire south...the bigger the state school, the more you see...look at a list to find the biggest TEXAS and TEXAS A&M and I bet you'll figure out where the most are). Personally, I liked an area where the metro area was huge with easy to travel in traffic didn't constantly stall up; could get in and out of the city easy - live in suburbs - or provided university living for a year or two for the coach/family needs to be idiot...jobs for the spouse were easy to comeby or the university came up with "something soft"...just some thoughts.

topher805 Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 With the deadline that Ivey set out for next week, things remain pretty quiet. Not a whole lot of speculation on the job, other than hearing potential candidates names for other jobs (Chizik - UNC DC; Traylor - TXST). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
