Skladany is an above average coach. There are upgrades out there though. UNT has to find one.

Just like unt found Ryan Walters/Tommy Perry/Noah Joseph...

this is my second go round with skladany. Other one was UH. Add his stint with UCF and you will read the same comments on the forums. Bend dont break, wont get after the qb, dbs too far off, not aggressive.

He was talking about Skladany who has never been a head coach. Despite the opinions in this thread, I believe he is the best DC we've had since I've been following the program closely(back to '05). Even with the poor season this year, we were a top 40 defense before the UTSA game. That game may drop us to the mid-40s but still not a Ron Mendoza or SMU defense.

I wouldn't mind seeing us offer the North Dakota St head coach, Chris Klieman, the DC position with the understanding the he is the head coach in waiting.

I wouldn't mind listening in on the call to hear whether he could stop laughing long enough to curse at us.

You MIGHT be able to pull that off with the head coach at Sam Houston State...which probably would be a better fit for us from a recruiting standpoint than it would to get a brand new coach from NDSU.

I don't think any of the former USF guys we have on staff were there when Snyder came on.

But hey, if he wants to take a pay cut, sure! (Actually, he probably wont take much of a pay cut at all since I'm sure A&M will still be on the hook to pay him the difference in salary until that deal is over). He has some skins on the wall.

EDIT: PS - I'm sure he has plenty of recruiting inroads here in TX from his 3 yrs at A&M.

Snyder was talking to Kent St a few years ago:

That was after aTm's best defensive year. I don't know if he has enough juice to try and snag a G5 HC job still. He probably could find a DC job at this level.

He's an Ohio guy, was HC at Marshall, has coached at Minn and Ohio St. He may want to return to that area.

      This sounds like a marriage counseling session that went off the rails. Nobody needs to be reminded when the season starts that they declared their intention to quit supporting the school during the offseason. Everybody knows supporting UNT is like herpes. You think it's finally gone and it flares up again.

      financially? ha...oh goodness no. I spend my money on travel, music, drugs, golf, art, fine food & drink and my various charitable pursuits. like an interesting person. as a fan, sure. and I like the rest of you will be right back here supporting in the exact same way you have for 10, 20, 50 years. you'll be saying how ________ is the best PG or PF we've had here in decades, you'll rationalize away your "hate" for the portal with the fact that ________ is on his third school (at least until he transfers out at the end of next year) and you'll go on supporting the laundry because its what you do. the piety is boring so just stop. you never cared about the kids, just how they made you feel about your school...because that's somehow super important in your social circles

      If Mean Green fans grousing could kill your vibe, how did it survive on GMG for 21 years?

      I am not disregarding it, I'm suggesting we suck at recruiting, with or without NIL. NIL and the transfer rules are just making the entire process around us, in and outside Denton, move faster. I don't really care if this is statistically the worse offseason ever. I still handle emotionally it the same as any other bad offseason, which have been plenty around here. I'll still be around, watching and rooting for the Mean Green next year.

      No, I was trying to say his comparison of loyalty to hopping jobs. A company would drop any one as an employee without the bat of an eye. There is no loyalty on the business side.
