Mark Cohen sacked as SID after 20 years

Lets be honest, if teams win this won't matter to fans. And they lose, it also wouldn't matter if he kept him around , fans would still be calling for the AD's scalp

geez, that's two of the most respected guys in college sports that have chimed in. guys that have been pretty good to TCU in coverage.

all the tweets are even more depressing. even the alamo bowl tweeted out their gratitude.

edit: and now the espn stats desk too

It's June. Baseball went home early. Football hasn't started. Stars are eliminated. Rangers are already 5 under. What else are we going to do?

That's disappointing. I'm sure it was extremely difficult working with GP in that capacity.

get drunk and play golf.
listen to Jimmy Buffett tunes, get drunk, play golf.

the possibilities are obvously not endless, but definitely acceptable.

I can say with 1000% certainty that Mark was not one of the “most liked” people inside of the athletic department. His reputation inside of the department is pretty much the polar opposite of it outside.

wait ... would you say you are 4imprint certain?

I see a recurring theme here.

Admittedly, I posted earlier the he was "most liked". I do not know him, only based the comment of observation from afar.

My wife, a journalist; when I told her the news immediately claimed that she saw him as a grandstander...self promoter.

So who knows. Hate seeing anyone lose a job.

Rumblings of firings within the administration. Some key names we'd all recognize. Not sure the full story but hate to see longtime and loyal Frogs go. Anyone heard anything or anything made public?

I really liked Mark, and I had heard he was retiring in August. I guess they wanted to get someone else here during the dead period before things started back up in August. Regardless, the timing was not good. I do know the athletic department is having to cut its budget due to the upcoming NIL settlement. This is being repeated all over the country.

It's what I was alluding to a couple weeks ago. Didn't want to mention Mark bc that's his moment to reveal but that's some of the Intel I had. Also had the Bowen in the portal but mentioning it would have probably revealed my source since so few people knew.

Explain please because the Mark I knew was the complete opposite. Caring individual, great father and friend to all involved in the program.

 

[Realtorfrog]

Hate this for Mark but his only wanting to cover football had to be an issue. Great guy and ambassador but I know others have tried to get him to expand in the past.

This always happens when there is regime change. When Pat Sullivan came in, he fired long time and well liked EQ manager Bruce Smith. That opened the door for now long time TCU Athletics employee Mike Sinquefield to come to TCU. So while you hate it for MC, someone really great may come to TCU. You never know.

Thanks for stopping by, Mr. Buddie...

Best wishes to Mark and I have to believe TCU provided him all of his well earned retirement advantages.

I had forgotten about the Cheez-it sideline interference. If you watch the clip until the end, you can see the bodies flying in the background. Funny memory.
