hate to say it but, id have to agree. when it comes to OU football, the only true measuring stick is NC game or nothing. it's the way it's been here since at least 1949. that's why I'll take college football over NFL 9/10 times.
the drama cannot be beat. nfl, you lose 5 ,6 games, you can still be the man so a loss is meh....you lose one in college, dpending on who you are, could keep you from seeing anything resembling a NC game.
back to coaches. i may be wrong but, i don't get the impression AD is even remotely interested in doing something other than what he's currently doing. either he's a great actor or he's having a GD blast coaching this team. low pressure to produce at this point and the kids have bought in and listen. still...there is that far off buzz about the D1 jump. he's got to be thinking that's a possibility.
IMO D2 gets to wrapped up in the relationships and the programs/schools suffer for it. But hey, if you are comfortable with a bowl game appearances and a couple playoff wins I guess a bunch of our programs are doing well.
How about assistant coaches. Defensive struggles at UCM, is the DC's job on the line, I would think so. I also wonder about the other defensive assistants at UCM. Maybe time to clean house on that side of the ball.
