I think that’s basically the essence of it. Whole lot of people on our boards basically saying “scheiss it, Deion is our guy” but if they were in JD’s shoes and their job was on the line would they still feel that way?

HBCU GameDay had a segment reporting that the interview never happened. Who knows what to believe at this point.
Skip to 6:50 to go straight to the TCU part.

Part of the interviewing process has to be on his coaching style and the coaches he would want for coordinators. He obviously knows the game and surely they can get a pretty good idea of his capabilities. Go big or go home right.

How many universities as members of a major football conference would seriously consider
hiring a candidate with the following resume?
(1) ~ Prime Prep Academy ~ (grade school) ~ head coach
(2) ~ Triple A Academy ~ (high school) ~ coordinator ~ (one year)
(3) ~ Trinity Christian School ~ (high School) ~ coordinator ~ (three year)
(4) ~ Jackson State ~ (SWAC) ~ head coach ~ (two years)

My favorite part of that entire video is the guy mentioning his own journalistic integrity shortly after he was literally kissing Deion on the head.

The real question is, why do we feel the need to endlessly debate the same 4 or 5 talking points across 7 different threads on a single candidate that's highly unlikely to ever be hired?

I read on an LSU forum that Napier prefers Manhattan clam chowder. Time to move on from him.
For it to work, I think Deion would probably have to be a much different guy than what I suppose a lot of these kids would be expecting. Can’t have 85 superstars on a team, what happens after that first big ass chewing or the demotion to 2nd or 3rd team with some of these kids? What happens after the first humiliating loss? Not sure Deion’s ever been big on taking much responsibility for failures, how will that work?
Can’t imagine things getting out of control with 85 Deion wannabes who are all in to marketing, self-promotion and NIL deals. Lol.

I thought we already eliminated him for not being a woman.

How dare you assume they identify as male just because they exhibit as male.
(Because everyone is so damn sensitive, yes this is a joke)

Things are accelerating… Barring something unexpected, resolution in the next few days is possible. Frogs going for their #1.
It’s not a 0% chance, but Deion won’t be the guy. Why? Simply put: He has exactly zero experience running a major CFB program, and would face an uphill battle getting HS support in Texas from guys who think he’s unethical. The kids like the idea of him, because of his celebrity and experiences, but coaches/parents and the “underbelly” do not. Somebody will take a chance on him, probably SMU or an SMU type, but it’s a true coin flip with a really low floor.
Is it racism? No. How do I know? He wasn’t the only current black head coach TCU was pursuing/interested in/talking to. Honestly I think TCU would PREFER a black HC if they had the right candidate, but that guy just isn’t available/interested this cycle. TCU has too many good and experienced options to choose from vs. reaching.
Last note: Regardless of who TCU hires, it seems the likelihood Dykes leaves SMU is going higher by the day.

So Campbell is coming to TCU and Dykes will be his OC. I'll take it.

Anything that will put a glorious end to this thread, especially a new coach, will be a welcome relief and all TCU fans can celebrate.
Unless this is a license plate thread then we are doomed.

Also… ZE might have more credibility calling for a certain HC to be hired if he hadn’t already told people he was heading to the portal. Just a thought.

We should make exactly ZERO decisions based on what ZE wants. Ditto for whoever the next ZE is as well.

Shouldn’t have one bit of impact on who we hire IMO.
