Tech's Jackson resigns - Shreveport Times

If it was all Dooley, it makes me sad for Ed, but I'm happy to see that Dooley isn't forced to hold onto these guys against his will.

Ed fired before Conroy? Wow.

I just talked to Perot and Eric Russell and they didn't mention a thing about this..but I didn't ask.

I spoke to Ed Wednesday and he stated that he was going to be loaded next season on defense because of the new signings and the returning players. That doesn't sound like a comment that someone who is leaving would make.

Jefcoat said he was a solid commitment to, people can change there minds fast and without warning.

Where are the insiders?

I talked to Ed a couple of weeks ago. After the converstation, I told my wife that I could tell Ed was not happy. I got the feeling he was only staying on because he had school-aged children.

If I had to guess, this was a mutual parting, with only the timing of the parting being the issue.

We will miss Ed. He is a true blue Tech man. I would like to keep at least a few on the staff.

Coach Jackson came on board while I played and he brought a whole new approach to the D-Line. He was easy to like, great to play for and easy to love. He was big in our FCA group and he was a great family man. He is from Mansfield but I didn't know him as he was at Tech and in the League before I got to know him. He's a true class act and he was a great man for Tech.

GOOD LUCK TO ONE OF THE FINEST MEN I'VE HAD THE PRIVILEGE TO KNOW !!!!!!!!

Bank on it! He is gone! Dooley used Ed Jackson to bring in recruits and then lets him go. Dooley just lost a supporter here!

I was told by someone that Ed was planning on leaving anyway. In fact, I don't remember who I told it to, rabiddawg maybe, but I told someone else that this year. According to this person, Ed told them in person that he was planning on leaving. So, before we start to get all upset with Dooley, realize that this may have been a mutual parting. I'm not saying that I know this for a fact, but that I was told nearly a year ago that Ed was planning to leave anyway.

Totally false!

Maybe this should be on the Recruiting forum until proven correct.

What proof are you waiting on? A photo of his cleaned out office? A different name on the door to Ed's former office? He's gone. You will not find a more dedicated person to a program.

Actually more than that it would be the right thing to do until it's official. Jackson might not want it "out there" that he was fired. At least not yet. Good grief you guys slay me sometimes!:bomb:

Not trying to slay you brother. Just trying to take you from the darkness to the light. Our good friend and True blue Tech man is gone. I fear that Conroy & Petey may be next.

Conroy maybe, but Perot isn't going anywhere.
