Sounds like Wells is out at Tech….

[Pharm Frog]

Dykes knows how to work the black hole of transfer....

This is too easy…. Anyone else want to provide the response?

hmmm......so we are thinking a tech "red" raider themed response......

If one follows the money, I just don't see any of our significant donors working to push Gary out now and offering to write a check to negotiate him out of his contract.. I think he's ours for at least another year and I believe we all hope he pulls a miracle, but few are holding their breath..

This just doesn't make sense. Why are the big money folks cool with losing lots of games every year?

And I'm not insinuating that you're incorrect as I know you're not the only one who has said this. I'm just massively confused by it. The people with the money don't seem to know anything football if this is how they feel.

We chose to be irrelevant when OU and Texas decides to leave and conference realignment is imminent.

Tech buddy says they don’t want Dykes. I told him they’re idiots. Who knows?

Dykes is seen as wanting it too bad. They’ll kick the tires on a bunch of guys. But I think Dykes is still the likeliest hire.

At the end of the day, Cody Campbell (Double Eagle billionaire) and Dusty Womble (their biggest athletics donor), both Regents, will pick the new Coach. They’ve shoved the AD to the side, and if he doesn’t do what they want this time, there’s a decent chance the AD and President get canned and replaced, too.

Cumbie gets to audition for the job.

So I wonder what happens if he comes in 2nd?

 

[NewFrogFan]

I miss winning by 1.

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.

EO extra curricular activity off the field absolutely had alot to do with his dismissal, especially when “it” showed up to practice.

 

[Realtorfrog]

The Tech AD isn’t going anywhere! He’s loved out there, engaged in the community and has several home run hires! Yes in lesser sports but he’s aggressively trying to change that.

HCGP will rehire him…

What alternative reality are you in? He’s been on the hot seat since he hired Wells, had a WBB scandal, and lost Beard. Unfortunately, his wealthiest donor/alum/regent wants him out. His continued employment at Tech depends on this hire (though to a significant degree he may continue to be protected by a popular president that likes him).

 

[gohornedfrogs]

May not be a popular opinion, but I would be happy to have Hocutt as our AD.

From what I heard they didn't even get a chance to counter Beards ut austin offer.

 

[Atomic Frawg]

Everyone knew he was out when they asked him on live TV what he like most about Lubbock and he hesitated, said "ummmm," and basically said his kid's soccer coach.

 

[wilson912]

Former Fran assistant Mark Tommerdahl on that staff.

He’s a good dude

 

[Chongo94]

From what I heard they didn't even get a chance to counter Beards ut austin offer.

If I remember correctly, he had a clause in his contract saying if UT wanted to contact him, Tech would not be able to stand in the way.

I could be misremembering things, however.

 

[vicarfrog]

Cumbie gets to audition for the job.

Won't find a finer gentleman and father. I want nothing more than to see him thrive and succeed.

I remember an interview with Coach P and in the background you could see Cumbie tossing his kids up in the air. As a dad of 3 boys and 1 girl, it actually brought a tear to my eye.

 

[Toad Jones]

I’m in Lubbock and on Tech’s campus right now. Word on the street is Wells is out and Sonny will be interim HC. Good for them for having the urgency that I’m quite confident we don’t have .

Unfortunately, urgency is a scarce commodity at TCU and has been for years with more excuses than be imaged. I suspect when Vic came here, he had a devil of a time dealing with it.

 

[Toad Jones]

Tech coaching situation not as complicated as ours.

Only because we choose to make that way.

 

[Paint It Purple]

It would be disappointing if they hired Traylor. That would be a great hire for them. I'm hoping TCU gets in touch with him and tells him he is on their radar, but that would make too much sense.

This is the resume that has some so excited to hire?

He is the flavor of the season. All about what have you done lately.

Something TCU doesn't care for. We won the rose bowl in 2010, hasn't lost its luster yet. Caught lightning in a bottle in 2014, we should be good until 2030.
