Sounds like Wells is out at Tech….

Kind of ironic that the final nail in the coffin was by blowing a 24-10 halftime lead against KSU by not scoring in the second half and losing 25-24. And who becomes the interim coach, the OC.

I miss winning by 1.

That quote always had me scratching my head. College ball has always included a style point factor and even in the Big 12 we are a small private school on the outside looking in.

Misinformed.

I resent this post as it implies that we need a reason to ban @steelfrog

I’d say almost zero chance, but people love him up here.

People will now get to see if Cumbie's system works when a defensive coach gets out of the way and lets him really call what he wants.
While our offense has struggled here, our problem is really just a horrible defense dragging everything down. Max played well until he started pressing a bit, which is understandable because I'm sure nobody on offense has trust in this defense. So they are gonna push it. The turnover to QJ is not shock. Anybody worried about the pending loss sees him a someone to try and force it to.

I have never understood how Gary does not see that taking the foot off the gas hurts us. Defensive stats aint championships.

Orgeron until his skeletons are coming out.

His skeletons aint all people chalked it up to be. His firing at LSU is about wins and losses. Period. They have little bro issues. So do we, just they go and do something about it.

Getting backups playing time early is at least part of the reason the Bamas of the world stay at the top.

and not doing that is why our depth just sucks.

I can't help but wonder if the team weren't doing just a little better would they be giving him the boot. That said $17 million is nice!

Football is getting back to more runs than passing. This season has showed it big time. Defensive coaches who can't defend the run are toast.

it is interesting how so many people are unware or just disregard the things that happened while miles was at lsu

For sure. They had the agreement and then LSU beat Florida. Those pieces like the very ill researched one in the Athletic looked rushed to be out by Monday, etc. Big red flag that they got used to push a planted story. young reporters get hit by that often. And I am sure the LSU machine knew what reporters to target. Just need enough half truths and they are off and running.

In the beginning GP was better at getting the team up for the good competition then would let SMU or Arizona play with us. Remember direction Louisiana after 9/11?

I remember back in the early days was listening to Estridge and Denton. We were actually destroying SMU and guys I had never heard of were getting in. Jeff Ballard led a scoring drive in his first D1 series. The radio guys made the comment that it;'s easier to get these backups to focus in practice when they thought they might actually see the field a few plays. I'm no coach but it sounds logical to me.

While not sure it will be Donati. I am pretty sure Tech will be replacing their AD soon also

Why? Missed on Wells but knocked the other two out of the park.

Yep. It is logical. GP has gotten so bad about having his teams play down to the level of opponents. The distractions have gotten to be too much as well.
If he is not off being the president of some association, he's off making a cd ... or worried about people making fun of his cd. Meanwhile, his split field (call two different defenses) scheme has been figured out and they are running all over him. Stubborn little fat man refuses to change.

I'm beyond feeling bummed that this is how it may end for him. Problem is, we have a joke of an AD. Yeah, he was a fund raiser. Great, stick to raising cash. But he has not experience with splash hires.

We are in a bad spot. We have to hope that GP realizes just how bad his own evaluations have been and brings in real staff.

Sounds like TT is going to go hard on Dykes and Traylor. TCU cannot afford to sit back and do nothing while Tech improves itself during these critical years to the point of surpassing TCU. If Traylor becomes the TT coach and takes them to the promise land while TCU wastes away the Frogs may never recover. Swift decisive action is necessary now.
