USM's Head Football Coach Todd Monken Just Resigned
Going to the Tampa Bay Bucaneers a week before national signing day.
WOW! So much for his "To The Top", "USM fans had better get on board, this is not what I signed up for" speeches.
Re: USM's Head Football Coach Todd Monken Just Resigned
I just saw that on Twitter and thought I read it wrong! I have to admit I feel bad for them, and sure wouldn't have seen that coming.
Anyone with insight know where they're looking? Promotion from within to try to hold their class together?

Making our non hire and non interview look better.
Re: USM's Head Football Coach Todd Monken Just Resigned
Any chance to steel back some recruits? Sucks for USM this close to signing day and I am curious as to who would take the HC job now as all of the named coaches have been hired.
Re: USM's Head Football Coach Todd Monken Just Resigned
Dantzler has already tweeted that he is still firm to USM "so don't call me". Some baaaad decisions being made by kids just before signing day.

That's the first thing I thought when I heard about it. There is no way anyone can make me believe he could not have waited a week to announce this. That program is going to be screwed. I am so glad he wasn't here to do that to us! I am sure the fans are going nuts- don't blame them. Either way, the new commits/signees are not going to be very happy.

Interesting thought that I did not consider. I think I'd rather him go ahead and announce instead of misleading the recruits. Probably no way to keep it under wraps anyway.

I know- either way it sucks for them. You hate to see the kids get stuck here and the program screwed- if he delays or like he did, announce it.

Yes but we don't have much room right now. Might steal Coach Simon though!

No, he was fired after year 1 (or before). John Carr (Ouachita HC and Roger's son) was there, but he took another job at a JUCO a couple of weeks ago.
Re: USM's Head Football Coach Todd Monken Just Resigned
USM just got Dyked with a imbeding JUCO problem
Re: USM's Head Football Coach Todd Monken Just Resigned
Damn!... I hate this for USM.. and 2 weeks before signing day too!!!
Monken was pretty impressive with the turn around he had going... This is bad for CUSA too
