GREAT! Now we can all stop the CGP madness.
We just fired an arrogant out of touch A-Hole type!

It’s clear our guy is Fritz with Traylor as our back up plan.

Somebody is giving KPRC’s Randy McIvoy bad information. He was saying GP was a name to watch a couple of days ago.

I think Traylor is probably in the driver’s seat, but he also has no leverage right now to rush this process. I think UH still weighs out all options.

Put it this way, Traylor can’t take the Aggie job. There is no other job in the region, and teams outside the SEC/B12 won’t even look in Traylor’s direction.

Traylor has to take the UH job if offered because if he stays at UTSA and doesn’t do well next season, he can kiss any P5 opportunity goodbye.

He has to take an offer while he’s HOT. UH is available.

They also said that Kliff was the priority candidate if I’m not mistaken lol

or he can sit this round out and wait for Baylor to open after next season or even SmU potentially

He definitely could wait if he wanted to, but if he ends up 8-5 then i don’t think his value remains the same.

The AAC will look different next year.

Comparing Dana with Patterson is ridiculous.

Here are some other arrogant coaches:

Saban
Sweeney
Kiffin
Sarkisian
Stoopes Bros
Riley
Beamer
Meyer
Alvarez
Kelly

Just to name a few of the 100’s off the top of my head that we would swoon over.

I think its more than that. I think its a religious crusade for you.

Then I sincerely hope that it is Fritz, my #2 choice.

The list includes the best coach in the AAC, the best coach in the MWC and Traylor. And you figure Traylor has it wired?

I only saw McIvoy mention Fritz as strong candidate. They are very good friends. As many know McIvoy as Director of Ch 2 Sports Dept hired Lanie Fritz when graduated from SAM. He’s also SHSU Alum n former Student/Athlete- Baseball.

Edit: n just so i don’t get called out on it but it has Zero importance on what we’re talking abt, but I thk Lanie went to work for station in SC or NC before McIvoy hired her at NBC - Houston Ch 2.

Not sure what you mean here?

I think it’s going to be Fritz. Seems like we’re just waiting for the conclusion of the AAC championship game.

You may have spoken to the wrong Randy Sir! :smiley:

What does it say he is not interested or what is synopsis?

I concur w this Post. But i don’t think Tulane has put all their chips in yet to counter. It gets messy w such an important gm in front of them Saturday.

If he’s interested in moving, I don’t they will be able to compete. It means he wants something different.

They can find a way to compete with salary but that’s it. This move won’t be about money (not that he won’t take market rate!). JMO
