Once again, another person who was told the program was too poor to fire the previous coach. Folks, if you don’t see the common denominators here then you are blind.

Re: Roster/Staff Updates
Shawn was not surprised by the termination. The decision was made by the Chancellor upon recommendation of the AD . Both of them were emotionally distraught regarding the event. I spoke with both the day after. As to the BOT , no one has ever spoken negatively in my presence or to me one one one regarding anything other than on field performance and the handling of one particular discipline issue as it pertains to Shawn. For what it’s worth.

Maybe the mods will move this scrap over to the Octagon where it belongs.ASUFan4863 wrote: ↑Wed Feb 11, 2026 10:24 amOnce again, another person who was told the program was too poor to fire the previous coach. Folks, if you don’t see the common denominators here then you are blind.

Re: Roster/Staff Updates
Not sure I understand some of this, do you just declare if you don't really stand a chance of getting drafted?

Re: Roster/Staff Updates
In some cases, it'll allow guys to go through the draft process so they can know when going into coaching. And some guys just wanna play ball as long as they can so why not?

Re: Roster/Staff Updates
Every since they announced Coach Dlo as our coach, I have thought.... "man he looks like someone that was in football before".... I just never could put my finger on it. Yesterday I was listening to some 80's/90's country on youtube while working. Confederate Railroad came on with their song Memphis Queen. The video has Jerry Glanville in it. As soon as I saw him it hit me.... Coach Dlo reminds me of Jerry GLanville! Ever felt relief once something like that is figured out?

Re: Roster/Staff Updates
Will we ever see coaches like Glanville, Dennis Green and Jim Mora in the NFL again?
You know you miss these guys.
