    I want to say Texas did a year or two ago. If not them, another P5 school of equal caliber.

    Dang it! Mxt3999 had me believing Melvin was our problem! I forgot about the other side of the ball. Dang it! Are you saying perhaps our whole coaching situation is a clown show?
    Dang it! Hud needs to tighten up. I sure hope he doesn't think I mean he needs to hit the gym... some more.

    I know what happened.. We looked like 11 floppy kocks out on defense for 4 hours. Nothing else matters.

    I worry about the effect it could have on the players. Hope they handle this situation well.
    What can a new DC accomplish 5 days before a game?

    I'm not a total "sunshine pumper" though. I'm a realist. I know it didn't look good on either side of the ball Saturday. Just not ready to give up on Hud at this point. He's shown us far too much success.
    If we don't win 6 games this year, I'll re-assess the situation.
    We should not engage one another in conversation. It would only end badly.

    Fire Melvin Smith fine, but Hud along with the rest of the defensive coaching staff all played a role in this dumpster fire of a defense. What exactly are the goals for the defense moving forward?

Hud comes off as a perfectionist with alot of passion. It's evident in the way he carries himself. I view that as a good thing. Some people don't though. Those people would call Hud a micromanager perhaps. I still believe in him and I'm just not ready to write him off at this point.

    Here's to righting the ship!
    Y'all really think Hud called Melvin into his office 3 hours before kickoff to say "sorry, it's not working out?"
