Now that Bobeck is out at Central Oklahoma and Dorrel is out at Abilene Christian I have got to believe Dorrel will get a serious look from Central Oklahoma. Obviously Dorrel has ties with both D2 football and the MIAA, he’s a proven winner and now he has recruiting ties in Texas. That could be a home run hire for both Dorrel & UCO.

I'm sure Dorrel can pick and choose where he wants to go. UCO has long been the "sleeping giant". What's prevented them from taking the next step that UNK and FHSU seem to have taken?
Is it institutional commitment to success? If so, is AD going to want to go into a situation where he's not given everything he wants?

I have also heard and agree UCO is a sleeping giant . I’m thinking with paycom ceo making a ten million dollar donation for stadium renovations UCO is about to get serious about their football program. While I have never been there I hear Edmond is a really nice community.

First, it sucks it didn’t work out for AD at ACU. He deserved the step up to FCS, but he certainly chose a difficult situation. Secondly, if he goes to UCO, I would absolutely expect them to be among the upper half of the MIAA within 3 seasons and challenging for the league title within another 2. He is a proven champion as a player, assistant coach and head coach. UCO would be lucky to have him.

Originally posted by tarcat View PostYes I think options he will consider are a coordinator position at the d1 level or another head-coaching position at the d2 level but you gotta think he’ll get a call from UCO.
I can see both sides. You don't want to miss put on an opportunity to get the right person, but also may not want someone who didn't originally have interest.

I assume ACU Ast Coach Josh Lamberson (former NW QB, Ast Coach under UCM HC Svoboda, and eventual HC at SE Oklahoma, as well as 2 year stint as UNK HC) followed HC Adam Dorrel out the door? Tough gig for Dorrel, or any HC, to have kicked off ACU's jump into D1 FCS. Just curious, was there any truth Dorrel was primarily motivated to move from all of his success at NW and a Maryville community he loved because of a certain NW 'character' he didn't get care for? I don't want to offer the name, altho I would if I knew it was true. Never cared for the guy myself.Last edited by ZubCat81; 11-21-2021, 07:14 PM.
