This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Early in his career. TCU had 6 or more losses 5 times by 84david
during the 2010s. He started off as hot shit but has really faded.
TCU is .500 vs. the big 12 over the past 5 years, last years 5-7 team suffered a 30 pt beat down to "cupcake" Iowa st. Not exactly an elite resume. His records are also padded by playing at least one and sometimes two FCS teams each ear.
I'd consider that overrated for an "elite coach," and certainly unworthy of a statue.
PS: He's not much of a recruiter either. He rarely adventures outside of the DFW commuting area. Despite TCU being right in the middle of talent rich DFW area (dozens of 4 and 5* guys every year) TCU hardly makes the top 30 in recruiting.
