No question that Chad is a good match for Arkansas, as I pointed out months ago.

Yeah, but when you did I told you they would not take him due to no Arkansas ties.

But then I found out there were 2 Whataburgers in Fayetteville.

When he came in talking to those Arkansas folks using Smokey and the Bandit quotes I knew he had them then.

Because his first 3 classes weren't in the top half of the SWC either, he was + 1/2 game after 3 years, no winning record and no Bowl

Some don't understand College Football


The guy that thinks we should have hired Todd dodge is saying others don't understand college football. Im sure if we had paid Todd 3.5 million we would have proven our love and been in the college football playoffs.

I have never said that SMU should hire Todd Dodge-just because an [deleted] repeats it thousands of times doesn't make it true. I've challenged him to prove it multiple times and he disappears. What other poster has such an inferiority complex that he uses a poster ID of another poster and repeatedly brings up an alleged post a decade ago? And then can't ball-up and prove it. Anyone can search the ponyfans.com and nobody has ever proven that is accurate. So go ahead big man-prove your [deleted] or shut the hell up. The only thing I did was list Todd Dodge as one of 8 potential prospects for the job. There was never a time when Todd Dodge was a legitimate candidate for the job at any point within months of an SMU hire. We're waiting

When momentum starts rolling downhill in recruiting-WATCH OUT.

I don't care if Morris likes Arkansas or not.
I care about winning the bowl game and who the next coach (and coaching staff) will be.

Do you realize the search query does not go back past 2009? You definitely said something along the line that UNT was going to surpass SMU in recruiting and then on the field.

That's pretty slick, counselor. I suppose one of the mods could search the archives to find the exact quote but as I (and probably others) recall, you said something along the lines that "SMU will rue the day they allowed UNT to hire Todd Dodge". He may not have been your preferred candidate for the SMU job, but you certainly thought he was a good hire for the UNT job. At least you admit he was on your list of 8 potential candidates.

Silver lining? Maybe we can get Arkansas back on our future schedules? That would be fun. I still think of that game in Shreveport with Ramon, when we beat them by a lot.

Chad knew exactly what he was getting into. He knew our fan base wasn't strong towards football. He knew our attendance issues. None of this surprised him. Any of you that doesn't take this personally and have a fire lit in your belly isn't passionate enough.

All of this can be built up (winning program, more attendance, more engaged fans), but we obviously don't have it now. Stop using this as a hall pass for chad leaving as if it's "okay." He was here for barely 3 years, didn't do that great of a job, is poaching our recruits, and handled it pretty terribly (no letter, no communication whatsoever to the SMU community?).

Be sure you put the same standards on our new coach. He must be thankful to those he leaves and definitely cannot bring in any recruits from where he was no matter how good they are.
