He could have won 70-0 today and would never see the light of day again in that regard. 

Dude's scum. When's your wife's 8 months pregnant you go strange.   Nah uh.

That's why I dropped my side piece when my broad hit seven months

Meh.  Knute Rockne was 30 when he became HC at ND, as was DKR when he started at MSU. 

 

 

Yeah but back then 30 was like 55 in today’s age.

Was he upset?

After Tulsa there were certainly a few 9.95ers saying Major should replace Tom 

True. However, running a major program vs a G5 program is drastically different. Tom came into Houston and immediately began a winning culture. He had his ups and downs his last year, but I chalk that up to having his min focused on Texas or another big time school like LSU. Aggies soon forget they wanted him, too, but he was never going there. He knew it was Texas or LSU, and I believe he kind of cashed it in hisast season. We went from 8-6 and beating the highest scoring SEC team in year one to the Sugar Bowl in year 2. He knew what he wanted, and he knew what he could get at either school. 

 

Major belongs as a coordinator and nothing more. Maybe in a few years he can give it a try, but dude got waxed by Army 70-14 and ended the season at 8-5 two years in a row. His OC left him. He'll never get another Ed Oliver. He's in a sinking ship. Maybe he should try FCS and see what he can do. My opinion, of course. I just don't see him as HC material, whereas Tom has proven his meddle.

Mettle not meddle. I am the biggest Applewhite fan around and even I was really disappointed by the season he had. The defense was an absolute abortion and it looks really bad how he has ended the past 2 seasons.

I must have missed that 8th win last year

[Armybrat 40755]

O&W game.

[Cajun 11675]

How is Major still employed as an HC?  That game was beyond embarrassing.

Even Manny Diaz was like, "Damn dude!"

 

[alphahorn 1637]

He's clearly lost the locker room.  it will take a monumental effort and a strong leader on the team to side with major and win it back.  next year looks to be his last.  Perhaps they can get Tony Levine to do a Mack Brown and come back

Yeah, thanks for the correction. He should be winning no less than 10 games a season in that conference. I like Applewhite, he's just in over his head.

Getting blown out in a single game shouldn't get you fired, though it might signal deeper issues (hello Freedom Bowl!!!!).  

Mack survived blow outs before and after 2005.

Dude, it wasn't a single game that led up to that debacle.

That fucking thing was just the punctuation mark on the entire season.

That team completely quit on their coach.  Not one fuck given.

He’s a lousy coordinator too, when he doesn’t have someone else’s coattails to ride.

I just remember he wasn't the worst, but yeah, he's not someone I want running anything at Texas.

If you look at your post you'll note that you reference the bowl game.

 

I admit I don't follow UH football that closely.  Just looked at their season.  They lost their last five games with the least points given up being 45.

True, I did just reference the one game.

In my mind I was thinking about the whole season, their best player quitting on them, the team looking like it didn't give a shit everytime I watched, etc.  I didn't put that out there in my first post, so I can I understand your initial response.

As you were.  Carry on.
