Wow...just wow.

Do we have a real source, not just a message board?

Bill Jones from CBS reported George to SLC earlier this afternoon via his Twitter feed, @cbsdollarbill. It's a done deal.

Ok, that is a better source. I am curious what comes out of the AD on this. The next question is, have we started our search for his replacement?

Wow is right. This one took me by surprise.

I think this could be an area where coach Canales can help! He didn't get to participate in recruiting much, but I'm sure he knows some people who can help.

You know, I really never wanted to find out the answer to how many times do you have to be kicked in the nuts before you go numb and get used to it.

Three.

Maybe Coach Canales is putting his stamp on the way the "O" will be ran and the two did not see eye-to-eye??

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think that's now two of the three coaches, that were rumored to be getting fired, before RV came out and said otherwise. Coincidence?

Also, who was the WR coach at South Florida with Canales? Would he be an option? Maybe we can land a WR coach who has also excelled at coaching special teams? Any ideas?

Fired or did they choose to leave ?

WR coach was Phil McGeoghan who was retained by Skip Holtz

Interesting continued changeover for a coaching staff that was considered all returning and intact as of early December. Is OC at SLC considered a promotion over being WR Coach at NT? Coach Canales should have input on the replacement coach and it will work out OK. That's a lot of new offensive coaches to have to learn the playbook and personnel by March 23.

Best of luck to Clayton George. I wish he could stay, but from a job security standpoint this is a good move for him so this kinda makes sense. Hopefully he can help put Southlake back to the top of the national rankings.

I doubt any of the coaches "rumored" to be getting let go would want to stick around. This should be of no surprise, I just hope that we get someone in here that we can be excited about.

With dumb and dumber gone this team should win 7 games

I think it is a huge coincidence that two of the High School coaches that were left on this staff are the 2 that left the program.

I don't believe in coincidences.

I also don't see a HS OC position as a step up from a college WR coach.

No disrespect to George or Ford. I appreciate their contributions to the program. Just an observation.

[emmitt01]

With the last of the HS coaches gone that is one less thing to point to should things not turn around. Now the whole staff should have college "skins" and things should look up.

I don't believe in coincidences either and these deals did not happen overnight. I would think this was a suggestion situation as we call it. Well I do not want to fire you but I suggest you might want to explore other opportunities if you know what I mean.

so when you head out then the team should win 9-10 games???

no reason for the name calling of them by you...ya...i did it to you, but what one does to others has to be expected to happen to them...

Why? It seems like all of his coaching stops coincided with an era of suckiness at each respective school.OU from 92-98? SMU from 2002-07? Unless you know something, I'll definitely take a pass.

I really think this can be a positive for us in the long run. Although he was a UNT alumni which is always a plus for your team, Dodge and Canales can now bring in someone with a lot of experience with more recruiting ties to Texas & Oklahoma and someone they're both comfortable with to develop the receivers. I'm sure Canales knows of a few guys who love to coach here with him & Dodge.

You know of any available WR coaches that have more experience that would want to come here for 1 year ?

Our options are limited at this point
