  3. This is part of the #OldDenton defeatism. I will enjoy the year he is 'gone' while he is here. And see where he 'goes' next year. I take it as a win SL is here, and not elsewhere. And whenever he goes, I won't take it personal. We are in a different place now, at least in part because of him. And we are going UP from here, regardless of who is in the chair. GMG

They made me feel like family and I feel real comfortable around all of them."

  7. Mainord has always been Associate HC since he started. He's being named Co-OC probably for two reasons: 1. Give him the title/more money/better retention possibility 2. He's coaching all of the WR's now, and has more input in how the offense is run.

  11. Texted my buddy Keff Ciardello who covers Tx State football and is dialed in to the program as close as any body. his text read "Damn good recruiter. Brought in Kennan Brown to play TE. He is about to get drafted. All you need to know" So I am sold

  17. Unless some unexpected seasons take place look for these openings: Auburn USC Illinois Indiana Rutgers What would be surprising firings, but very possible: South Carolina Vanderbilt Arizona Not probable, but possible 2nd year head coaches being sent packing: FSU UCLA Then the surprising retiree of X coach (maybe Duke or Michigan State, etc) as well as the guaranteed surprising firing that will inevitably take place. Then universities plucking current head coaches that creates other vacancies. Point is, this off-season was pretty calm in regards to the revolving door. Look for it to be more chaotic next off-season. And Jimmy boy will be front row and center.

  18. Yeah, because a reporter for CBS sports with full knowledge of who applied for the Tennessee job (which included Seth Littrell) is totally unbelievable, but a poster on this site who claims SL was contacted by a different SEC school definitely shows the absolute truth... Homers gonna homer...

  24. Hang onto? No they are a Big time conference with a big time media deal. Backfill? No they broke away from the old big east because of the lesser basketball programs being added then added top basketball programs. Sustainable? Yes it is! National Championship AAC has only been around in present form for 5 years and has always been a power basketball conference with multi team bids and a NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP. College Basketball is it's own money maker separate from football. ACC, BIG 10, SEC, BIG 12, PAC 12, BIG EAST, AAC, A-10, and MWC are the power conferences of basketball.

  25. Re-watching this great win over the past few nights. So much I could say about the game...first two quarters the Razorbacks shot them selves in the foot...our offense struggled at times...defense and special teams really stepped up, and I’m not talking about the fake fair catch - Arkansas ‘ starting field position and penalty after penalty really took their toll...both teams committed too much penalties. But In the 3rd we settled in and really took it to them. Our offense began to impose its will on the Razorbacks defense...several great receptions for long yardage...also some great rushes. What a quality win. SEC wins are hard to come by for the Mean Green historically. Watching the game again I see how fantastic this win was for our program, regardless of Arkansas’ record at the end of the season. Remember this win. Special season and team for our Mean Green. Sometimes I forget how awesome this win was for us...9 wins is such a great accomplishment, especially wins over Arkansas and SMU - certainly Arkansas who would’ve gladly used us as a primer a few years ago for their “real” schedule. Someone pointed out on another thread how our non-conference shedule in the past was so much more difficult, and I agree. It’s what makes this win so special. Really proud of these young men and the coaches. Screw the hogs. Great to see our Mean Green beat em down. Great to re-watch it again. And again. Go Mean Green.

  26. Urban Meyer went 22-2 in 2 season at Utah and won both bowl games over that time period (after going 17-6 in 2 years at BGU). Tom Herman went 22-4 in Houston (1-1 in Bowl Games). Of course, this came right after being the Broyles Award winner at Ohio State, helping them win their first championship in over a decade. Seth hasn't had nearly the star over him that Herman had, even before Houston. Frost went 13-0 and beat Auburn in a Bowl game. SL does that, then I don't think anyone doubts he can go to an upper lvl P5. They're just pointing out that he HASN'T done that. Frost, like Herman, had been a coordinator at a major P5 program in Oregon that played for a Nat't Championship. He was also a Broyles Award finalist at Oregon. Hoke had been a HC for 8 years, and had a middling record when Michigan hired him, coming off a 9-win season and bowl victory. Despite his amazing first season, I don't think anyone is looking to the Michigan hire of Hoke and saying "that's what we need to emulate." After 4 mosly mediocre seasons at Michigan, he was dumped. Tressel was a coach at Youngstown State for 15 seasons. In that time, he won 4 Championships in 6 Championship games, and went 135-57-2. If Littrell stays here that long and wins that many games, then I definitely think he will also get a shot at a major P5. He hasn't done that. I'm not saying that SL WON'T be hired away, or that he WON'T even be hired away by a Big P5 if he doesn't win a bowl game. I'm just skeptical that your ADs at the Auburns or USCs of the world will have the balls to hire a HC who hasn't won their conference or a bowl game in 5 years. Heck, winning 9 games but losing big ones gets Head Coaches FIRED at those programs. So, I think you're looking at a minimum of 8 wins, and you HAVE to win CUSA Championship/Bowl game to get hired away by your top-tier P5 program. But I think a former great on a down-turn or a 2nd tier P5 is a lock at least, as long as he doesn't completely crap the bed. I think SL has been a great coach for us, and I am pleased with his accomplishments. But at some point, even WE would have to start questioning whether or not he CAN take the next step (not unlike what happened with Dickey). I don't believe we're at that point yet, and the way the coaching carousel goes in college football, we likely won't ever get there. It is what it is.

  27. Very nice addition. Looks like Mainord will take more role for both wide receiver groups. And more emphasis on tight ends in New offense https://txstatebobcats.com/coaches.aspx?rc=897

  29. Yeah, he's done such a horrible job here bringing us to three bowl games in 3 years and having a solid winning record the past two seasons from when we WENT 1 AND 11 IN 2015. We are not that far removed from that blunder of a season and the turnaround he has orchestrated is nothing short of a damn good job well done, bowl season and end of the season "woes" aside. Next year without Harrell calling plays will an interesting year I think in terms of how we finish games and how we finish the season.

  36. AAC is a mixture of left behind BIG East and good CUSA. CUSA is a mix of left behind CUSA and Sunbelt. College Basketball conferences are seen different than Football. The Big East is a power conference in basketball but doesn't even have FBS football. The AAC is a power conference in basketball but the money divide between them and P5 is drastic. CUSA Presidents and Ads need to wake up and put out better products plain and simple.

  40. No Texas Pickup, no Tomato or State Club. Now this. It’s amazing that a university would intentionally eliminate the last of its classic eateries on/near campus. I guess it’s possible new ones may pop up but why as a business owner would you want to risk building a brand when there’s a good chance the school will come in within 10 to 20 years and take it?
