Enormous LOSS to Houston.
Coach may be gone.
And now ANOTHER 11AM start to a big time Home game.
[deleted] Monday AM for sure. I want to puke.

That seems a bit of overreaction, but I get the need to vent a little.

If we win Saturday, I am not sure we get another 11AM start AND more importantly GAME DAY waits til Nov 20th to check the Cincinnati box, which unfortunately now they are doing next weekend vs. [deleted] Tulsa.

We lost to Houston and we are playing a 5-3 UCF and our coach's longevity here is in question. This makes perfect sense.
I hope we win but I can't even make a prediction. When it was just Tech looking, a ton of articles said "Sonny you can do better". So if the team was distracted then, I can't even imagine now. If Hart wants to keep his job, a signed Sonny would need to happen now.

If SD leaves, who coaches the bowl game?

Ben Hicks.
Sorry couldn't pass it up.
Truthfully, Riley or the new coach.

Riley, if hired by Dykes, would pull a Jeff Traylor and leave it for the new coach.
Hope Dykes stays in Dallas. I've read that SD makes around $3M a year. Would you give him $4M?

But what if Riley was the new head coach?

I would sooner have art briles from rapeU than riley. IMO riley is not head coach material yet. he makes too many questionable calls on O. I would not mind seeing our DC coach us in a bowl if SD is gone.
Then again, you have to wonder what players will be here and their state of mind.

Would Leavitt be considered for a HC vacancy at SMU? Better question might be whether he would be interested.

I'd rather have you than Briles -- anyone before him. Hell, I'd rather have Patterson, and I despise Patterson.

My wife suggested posting signs outside Turner's office.

indicative of how little espn thinks of our conference- even before the 'chosen few' leave.
