because SMU has a bunch of ignorant fans that don't know how college football works. Coaches of undefeated G5 schools or games of historical significance at their G5 school stay for Bowl-almost without exception coaches of teams playing in minor bowls ALL leave. If you continue babbling on about this argument you are just exposing yourself as someone that doesn't know much about college football

Not surprised Chad felt he needed to leave before the bowl. That was no great offense. However messing with Traylor was the wrong move. Not sure what all went on there but it made Chad look small I thought. I don't think he ever gave it two seconds thought - he got his gig and was on to the next one.

I think Arkansas will get better but they wont get what they thought they bought in chad. He will have a hard time breaking into the top three on the west side of that conference.

In any event - like what I see with Sonny and his staff so far. Will be great to see how this goes when his (already better) recruits start getting in place.

I don't fault Chad one bit for bolting immediately. Don't remember if he said good-bye and thanks to his players (that should be done at a minimum), but once hired by Arkansas, he had a new loyalty and owed it to them to assemble a staff and to prepare as best he could for that "first" recruiting class.

I did something very similar when I left my 1st employer, so it would be two faced of me to find any fault with what Chad did. And yes...I'm among those hoping he does well at Arkansas and actually believe he will do well there.

Because every other university has articulate, non-inflammatory and cordial fanbases who never take their grievances to message boards.

They have a chance. Even with Arky already not doing well, they are without their starting QB, starting running back, and the 2nd team RB is hurting (kind of like X for us). And their top CB is on the bench for disciplinary reasons. They are probably going to start a freshman QB.

I think Chad has this one, unless he gets out coached (which TulsaΓÇÖs coach has done before).

If Chad and Chavis find a way to lose to a 1-5 AAC team, at home........... :shock:

If they thought the fan base was mad after the Colorado State and NTSU losses........pitchforks will be out if they blow this one.

Very true and that will always be but injuries are pregame excuses. Refs are post game.
