But he would definitely be a difference maker with Achane leaving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would give some juice to an already topsy turvy off-season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because imo it's going to be Jimbo's offense regardless... I just don't believe that whoever comes in as OC is really getting free reign. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weigman was just a freshman. Owens, Daniels, Moss might be handled more evenly under new OC. Moose and Stewart aren’t bad. Jake Johnson, Donovan Green are young at TE. There’s no way, no way the o-line can be that bad again. I’m the guy who thought there was no way the QB play could be as bad as Calzada last year. So what do I know? If Jimbo becomes the CEO, lets the OC call the plays hopefully you see some improvement. Things were bad this year. Real bad. The only thing that gives us fans any hope is as bad as it was, we were still in several games with a horrible offense. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I definitely see your point and I agree, there's a lot to work with and plenty to be optimistic about. I guess what makes me skeptical is Jimbo turning over the keys and just being the CEO. Only time will tell on that, though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just saw the rumored leader by Luicci for the job…..Bobby Petrino do anything for anybody? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney Posted December 9, 2022 Author Share Posted December 9, 2022 It would make sense. Veteran coach. SEC ties. Not a threat for his job. Offense is better than his motorcycle skills. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're replacing one dinosaur with another. And yeah, I can't get over his past. Then again, a lot of teams have coaches with similar baggage.

It's a very underwhelming hire imo. I was thinking it would be a young guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sportsfanatic1 Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 They were waiting on little Riley like a dude waiting on "I will" after a proposal. He may work out but there needs to be an understanding, NO liquor stores in CS can give him whiskey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Figurehead position to appease the people calling for Jumbo's head .... Jumbo will probably use him to signal in the plays and hold his clipboard ....

It was mentioned that on gomeangreen.com that it's a possibility he might accept the job on Monday. I will report back if I get confirmed reports. So far, people have been mentioning Fuente as the main guy. He already lives in the metroplex. I think we know more after this weekend. They are trying to get AD named. The frontrunner for that seems to be the interim Jared Mosley. https://www.gomeangreen.com/forums/topic/157164-my-top-6-picks-to-be-next-head-coach-of-north-texas/page/3/#comments Edited December 10, 2022 by MeanGreenDogs64 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
