…it’s Willie Fritz. Every other candidate is available to accept now and be in place for the portal and the last minute recruiting push. So, I can’t see any other reason that we have not announced other than our future coach is busy this weekend.
That’s just how I am interpreting the tea leaves, and I think it is a sound conclusion.
Are you guys truly excited by those two hires? Do y’all think those would be program altering hires in the Big 12? Or do you think they would be middle of the pack hires? Just curious.
I think it’ll take a few years, but Fritz can get the job done. He’s done it both at SHSU and Tulane. Before Fritz, I never would’ve thought Tulane would field a competitive football team.
It may not necessarily be Fritz, but I agree it’s obvious he’s our number 1 targe. Unless Traylor or some secret candidate blew the admin away I wouldn’t expect anything until he’s formally talked to and probably an offer put on the table.
I’d be very excited about any of those three. Traylor, IMO, has the highest ceiling. Fritz is the most sure-fire homerun. Odom has grown on me. I looked at his record at Mizzou. .500 in the SEC at a place like Missouri ain’t bad. And the rest of his resume looks terrific. He’s third out of three for me, but I would be excited.
Kinne is the only other guy I’d be truly excited about. The others have too many question marks in my mind.
