Embarassment.

UT didn't shut us out.

Tulsa didn't shut us out.

Akron didn't shut us out.

SMU didn't shut us out.

RF should be fired first thing tomorrow.

Dickey had better be hiding under his desk, because as far as I am concerned his job should be open on Monday.

We are officially the worst team in D-1A.

To let this season go the same way as last season is totally unacceptable and we should send such a message.

I wonder how much his illness has taken a toll on him and the team.  Darryl looks down right un-healthy when I saw him today.  I feel bad for him and his family.  sad.gif

On the halftime show, he looked like he's in the middle of chemotherapy.

I feel bad for all he's gone through, and I'm a big supporter of his. But, problems aside, if he can't get the job done anymore, he should be replaced.

I support him, but not to the detriment of the team.

Every closeup of DD on ESPN he was just standing there all alone or picking his nose.  I think he knows the end is near.

I think he will resign either tomorrow or Monday. I think you are right, he knows this team is no where near where it should be. It's almost like they put everything they had into the SMU game, then simply gave up.

And he looked horrible on the halftime show. I thought he was feeling better, but you couldn't tell it from that photo. I wonder if he is sicker than he is letting on?

It doesn't matter if Parcells is the coach, Peyton is the quarterback and LT is trhe running back. Nobody can win without a good front 5. They really let us down and no one man can lead a football team to victory on his own. Ask Barry Sanders.

That's all true, but guess who recruited, developed, coached, and motivates those guys?

I was at the game, so I didn't see what DD looked like. I've never been much a supporter of his, but I do wish him the best with his health. However, if his health is affecting his job performance so seriously, I think it's time for him to step down. I'm sure that with his hectic coaching schedule he's not eating like he should. And the stress level is probably pretty rough as well. Bottom line: sometimes, although you may enjoy something, your body just isn't up to the task. Sometimes you have to know when to call it quits.

He'll never resign IMHO, he'll have to get fired. He's far too proud to admit when a change needs to be made.

I'm not a Dickey basher, but his lack of engagement with his players during the game -- from what I've seen on that telecast and others -- is disturbing. I can't recall the last time he appeared animated or energized on the sidelines.

Compare that to the new MTSU coach, who was getting in the face of his players throughout the game with both praise and criticism.

I wouldn't expect the guy to fake enthusiasm or rah-rah BS, but if he's passionate about this team and this program, you wouldn't know it by looking at him during a game.

A couple of years ago the tag team of Hayden Fry and Mike Singletary were ready to take the job in Waco. I don't care how old or inexperienced they may be, somebody needs to give them a call and start begging. We need new blood NOW!

What????????????

Singletary & Fry????? Call them up!!

      Former Drake Guard Atin Wright commits to North Texas

      It's easier for us to say it's fun since we're not the ones who have to recruit an entire new team every year, but it's honestly exciting to see how the new team is built. The max exodi of beloved players sucks, but in this new age losing guys like TP, Drez, Rubin and Aaron doesn't have to mean a several-year rebuild. Now we can "retool" and even get better. I think this year was more of a gut punch because it felt to me and many others that Rubin and Aaron were Mean Green for life. They've been the constant leaders throughout the past turnover. But even healthy we weren't the most talented team in the conference. And I trust Hodge. The past seven years Grant and Hodge have run a clean program and as much as I love the guys who have played for us, I trust Hodge and Forte will continue recruiting players who will be good representatives of the university, even if only for a year. I also agree we need two more PF's - at least one who can space the floor shooting 3's. Assuming we have at least three scholarships left, so assume we'll see another guard. I'd like to see us bring on one guy who's averaged 18PPG or more. Doesn't matter which position though it'd be a nice changeup for it to be a high scoring big man.

      The last home games of the 2023-24 school year

      Weather has become a factor in a lot of games this season. Wet spring has really made this softball season pleasant. Feel like we had several 90+ degree games last season.

      SB vs Wichita State (4/26)

      Here's what the conference tournament would look like if it started today. Finished 2nd or 3rd is the difference between having to win just two games in two days, or four games in four days. Wednesday, May 8 - First Round Game 1: No. 5 Wichita State vs No. 8 South Florida - 10 a.m. (ESPN+) Game 2: No. 4 Tulsa vs No. 9 UTSA - 1 p.m. (ESPN+) Game 3: No. 6 UAB vs No. 7 East Carolina - 4 p.m. (ESPN+) Game 4: No. 10 Memphis vs No. 3 North Texas - 7 p.m. (ESPN+) Thursday, May 9 - Second Round Game 5: Winner WSU/USF vs Winner Tulsa/UTSA - 12 p.m. (ESPN+) Game 6: Winner UAB/ECU vs Winner Memphis/UNT - 2:30 p.m. (ESPN+) Friday, May 10 - Semifinals Game 7: Winner WSU/USF/Tulsa/UTSA vs No. 1 FAU - 12 p.m. (ESPN+) Game 8: Winner UAB/ECU/Memphis/UNT vs No. 2 Charlotte - 2:30 p.m. (ESPN+) Saturday, May 11 - Championship Game 9: Winner Game 7 vs Winner Game 8 - 11 a.m. (ESPN2)

      Yes, win 2 of 3 in Charlotte and should be at least Top 2. If we do that and there's a three-way tie for first at 19-8, I'd imagine we'd take the top spot because we'd be 4-2 vs. the field, FAU 3-3, and Charlotte 2-4 in that hypothetical. Thanks! Wasn't able to watch that game, just kept up on Twitter.

      Regardless of what happens tomorrow.....we need to win 2 of 3 in Charlotte....right? As to backup catcher Moffitt......in our last game at Memphis....she tripped over first base....and fell on her wrist. I'm guessing it's a sprained wrist. As to backup catcher....I don't think we have one. But they used Olguin to warm up people in the bullpen. And remember on Kalei....she had to catch 16 innings last night.....and today's game was early. So might just be gassed. Go Mean Green!!!
