He had a lot of fire behind the scenes and held people accountable. Not sure I am seeing the same in Joe M. at this point. He only had winning seasons 2 of 6 years at OU and only once finished higher than 3rd in his division. He was Lee Owens before Lee Owens. After OU he goes to Wake, has one great season, then underperforms while completely mismanaging the Riley Skinner years. He didn't make a bowl Skinners senior season because he became obsessed with running the fullback into the line for 1 yard gains. Then the program collapsed. The magic of Jim Grobe is only apparent to those who didn't watch almost every game from Skinners sophomore year on. Anyone really paying attention knows better. The AD at Wake knew better and encouraged him to retire after he wanted to bring back the program killing triple option. He only had a winning record 5 of 12 seasons. Grobe became fools gold and every AD in America knew it after his Wake days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tater tot has been fired after going 2-10 in year 3. We need Coach Joe to get a QB and avoid being added to the unemployment list.
