So did O'Leary go out on good terms?
Sounds like he may resentful that Hitt made/pressured him to stay. With that said, he could have easily retired last season and he likely would have had his hand-picked successor, Key, takeover without too much commotion.
I believe he is totally resentful. GOL wanted to retire after the Fiesta bowl. Our president convinced him to stay. To be pushed out midseason by the same person that twisted your arm to stay.....leaves a bitter taste in your mouth.
HOWEVER, that being said...... I'm glad it went down as it did or else we would not have Frost. If he retired after the the Fiesta win, we would be stuck with Brent Key right now, still losing or having very mediocre seasons. Our football program would be just like our basketball program.....$****** with no coach. Luckily that didn't happen.
Side note, Donnie Jones is finally on the clock. If there is no improvement with the basketball team, he is out after this season.
Absolutely agree, If we even win 4 games this year then we are probably stuck in mediocrity for at least the next 2-3 years with Key. The way it went down may have resulted in a horrible season for us, but it will be for the best in the long run.

End of the Season Summary
(12-08-2015 11:41 PM)CyberBull Wrote: With the end of the regular season now upon us, let's look back at the highs and lows...
1. Most improved/surprise player on your team?
2. Biggest disappointment?
3. Best win?
4. Worse loss?
5. What recruit made the biggest impact?
6. Offensive MVP?
7. Defensive MVP?
8. Did your team under or under perform based on pre-season expectations?
9. What are early expectations for next year?
10. Is your coach on the hot seat? Likely target for a P5? Not going anywhere?
1) Matt Davis did some nice things this year
2) nobody on our defense stepped up to become a football player
3) Picking between UNT and Tulane wins for which is best is like picking between two spoiled fruits. That said, I guess Tulane because it was a conference game.
4) Memphis, because we didn't show up
5) Xavier Jones
6) Courtland Sutton
7) Justin Lawler by process of elimination
8) Neither - we had no expectations
9) Win at least 3 games
10) Go Aggies
