  1. There are ad/marketing/promo companies all over the DFW area looking for people these days. They're not just looking for creatives, but they're looking for traffic managers, account executives, and media planners.

    Where would one find a list of these ad/marketing/promo companies? My daughter works in Dallas and is looking to make a change. She's a TAMU Marketing Grad.

  3. Good coverage for North Texas and the turn of events with Riley's move. BTW, old Bob must pay attention to this board.

    Phillips, Dodge give PA News distinctive Football 2007 cover

    Bob West column for Sunday, July 1

    The Port Arthur News

    A couple of former Southeast Texas quarterbacks who have made it big in coaching — PN-G’s Wade Phillips and TJ’s Todd Dodge — will be the coverboys for the Port Arthur News’ Football 2007 due Aug. 30. Making that idea work could have been complicated if Phillips wasn’t such a good guy. Apprised that we were trying to work out the logistics of getting he and Dodge together, either at the Dallas Cowboys Valley Ranch site or at North Texas’ new practice facility, Phillips volunteered to go to Denton. With the help of another former Southeast Texas QB — TJ’s Damon West — who provided transportation to what was his college stomping ground at North Texas, the shoot came off without a hitch. Wade even agreed to pose for some publicity photos for the Mean Green with some of the kids attending Todd’s summer camp. The cover shot, meanwhile, is a unique one of an offensive genius going head-to-head on the chalkboard with a defensive whiz . . . Dodge, by the way, apparently is going to wind up with the state’s No. 1 QB in the 2008 recruiting class. His son, Riley, who earlier made a verbal commitment to Texas, has backed off and intends to sign with North Texas. According to quotes from the Southlake Carroll senior on a UNT message board, he told Longhorn coach Mack Brown this past week that he’s decided he wants to play for his dad. The addition of Riley means Todd now has nine early verbal commitments for next year, something that is totally unprecedented at North Texas. While it’s nothing for upper level Division 1A schools like Texas, Texas A&M and Oklahoma to load up on early commitments, it rarely happens for schools at the mid level. Dodge has created quite a buzz in recruiting circles with the pledges he’s received. They are, of course, non-binding, but my guess is he’ll retain most and maybe all of them.

  4. I think some are pulling the trigger a little too quickly in predicting Vizza's future or possible lack of a future at UNT.

    I agree. I see Todd Dodge as a very ethical person. He recruited Don Giovanni Vizza to play QB for UNT. Vizza will get a fair shot at the QB position and Coach Dodge will go with the best person for the position. Remember, this is D1A college football, not high school.

  5. What an amazing time for the program! All Dodge hire doubters please come clean and we will all forgive your sins... how anyone can question this hire now given the unprecedented publicity and recruiting is beyond me. How can you not be excited about the future of this program!

    He's just a high school coach. :rolleyes:

  6. Forget the stats, for the pure enjoyment of watching quality receivers that could catch just about anything thrown their way, I'd have to say Barry Moore, Ron Shanklin, John Love, and Johnny Quinn were the very best to done the Green & White. These guys were good! With the DD run based offense, you have to give additional props to Quinns' accomplishments.
