Yeah the better solution would be: forget the bow, let Ben coach it and go save our recruits and get a few. I think maybe he’s taking the June method: “they will come to me because of my stellar reputation”. :lol:

This is a bad look for Traylor. Either he got mad and left early b/c he didn't get the HC job or he was asked to leave b/c he his presence was distraction at best, harmful at worst.

Bad look for who? Players supported his candidacy and he didn’t win. He’s moving on like you do when you don’t get the job interview. Right not the Admin and Hart doesn’t look to good especially if players start transferring. That would destroy everything. Hopefully that doesn’t happen.

Traylor was going with Chad all along.

Ok, ok, you have had your say and your 10 mins. Now time to support your new head coach and stop tearing down.

I straight up said who it's a bad look for in the first sentence. It's a bad look for Traylor. There is no way around it. He made a commitment to be the interim for the bowl and quit when he didn't get the permanent job. That's incredibly selfish of him. In fact, I'd go so far as to say that this move actually shows that SMU was 100% right to not give him to HC position.

It just went from bad to worse I'm afraid.

Players need to respect their new coach and play hard for him and their teammates. If they whine and “run to tell the AD”, then they can move on. Their coach quit on them, and SMU hired someone they thought was a better candidate than their position coach.

After the announcement, and then I’ll accept this crappy reality and I’ll just be watching to see if any more bad news comes.

If he had gotten the head coaching position he would have stayed.

He knew he was not getting it. That is why he was with Chad at the Arkansas presser.
