Tim would jump at the chance if offered. We can get the athletes to make that offense run, Dykes and Franklin proved that, we just need someone who will #1 actually do it and #2 be able to recognize, recruit and teach a QB how to run it. Tim fits both criteria. We won’t hire him because our leadership at Tech is neutered and gutless, but that’s what we should do.
I've been under the impression the money people who love Holtz blame Rattay for underperforming and were part of why Rattay was ran off. So, unless they've changed, don't see Rattay coming back.

Matt Dunigan for coach...
Do doubt Holtz backstabbed Rattay as a way to get him out of the picture. If you remember, Holtz wouldn’t allow Tim to challenge J’Mar. I’d bet anything that Rattay would’ve either exposed J’Mar as the slacker he was or we would’ve gotten him to play better. Either way Holtz would’ve looked less the football brains he was trying to pass himself off as. That’s the overall governing reason why Holtz won’t let any of his assistants coach their own, he doesn’t want to be shown up.
We need Tim back in some capacity and I’ve always been a big advocate of bringing Dunigan back too. Together, I bet they’d be great.
Well, he’s gone now, and Holtz has digressed, so that argument doesn’t hold water. Plus he’s doing a pretty good job where he currently is. Hopefully none of the people that hold that belief have Tech degrees.
C-USA may fold as a football conference. Who would you add to replace the 6 who left? I think we end up in the WEST division of the sun belt football members with, LA Tech, Southern Miss, Texas State, Arkansas State, ULL, ULM and South Alabama. and in the EAST division FIU, Marshall, GA Southern, GA State, APP State, Coastal Carolina,Troy. That may put Western KY and Middle Tenn in the MAC. UTEP out west somewhere. Old Dominion up east somewhere.
THIS!!
Texas Tech just fired their head coach.
We're not going to the Sun Belt. Sun Belt fans will talk about Tech's rocky relationship with the Sun Belt but most importantly Tech also wouldn't fit into the eastern division's goal. Adding USM adds a new state to the belt and gets Troy back in the west with USA. The eastern teams wouldn't want a third Louisiana team and they want to add teams in the eastern time zone, namely old rivals in Marshall and then ODU and JMU. Adding Tech would put one or both Alabama teams in the east, which the eastern members don't want. Tech wouldn't get the votes because of the eastern time zone teams.
I don't see the MAC taking WKU or MTSU. I think the MAC has figured out its formula and doesn't care to change it just to save the two programs.
This is correct.
Both the Louisiana teams plus Arkansas state are for Tech being in the Sunbelt. Regardless of what the trolls say, they know it would be a win for them.
Not so much in the East.
The real conference realignment should happen with C-USA and Sunbelt exchanging members for Geography and then agree to mutual scheduling agreements.
The reason this won't happen is because ESPN doesn't hold all the rights and they don't want it to happen.
Exactly.
And why I am convinced that our weird Frankenstein TV deal was what ultimately did the C-USA in.
Piecemealing it out to cbs, stadium, ESPN is like selecting Pepsi as your Coke provider at home. It seems like you get a little more money, but in the end it’s nasty Pepsi.
Bump!
Talk about a rebuilding project.
We need someone with a strong personality also (like a Dooley) who can override the go-along-to-get-along culture in Ruston to do what it takes to win and win big. That's going to be pretty hard to do with the mess Dr. Guice has gotten us into but its not impossible.
