Bob West's show- Franchione, Stump, etc.

[texasstud28]

Some Houston sportswriter was the guest on Bob West's show tonight and he alluded to Franchione - basically, Dennis wanted his son, Brad, to take over after 2-4 years.  This could be false, though.  But Bob mentioned something relevant- it's preposterous to build the program in two years .  Nevertheless, it sounds like the next coach is going to be Craig Stump. This is good news.  Franchione would've been a homerun, though, in my opinion.  Lamar will hire a new head football coach within two weeks.

Ray Woodard, don't forget about him!!!!!!

Coop what about Ray Woodard?

[Guest abovetherim]

There is no way BT would hire Franchione for 2 years. Lamar would not play a league game before he is ready to call it quits. This just reaffirms my opinion. Coach Stump is the better fit for Lamar if the information about Franchione is correct.

If they have offered the job to Coach Stump why wait two weeks?

He's a Candidate.

I say big name, with Stump as OC, Centrals coach on staff and Big Frank on too.

thay cannot come to terms on three points. If they do Stump is the man. However, Stump will not wait very long for Lamar to meet him at least half way.

Let's take a guess here. Coach Stump wants a long term contract, wants to be able to make his own schedule, and wants to be able to hire who he wants for the coaching staff; especially the OC and DC positions.

Am I correct on any of the three?

[texasstud28]

Some credible source just told me that Stump turned it down. The only name I heard was Craig Stump.  Whether Franchione was ever interviewed or not, who cares.  If it's not Craig Stump, maybe it's Ray Woodard.....(like Cooper said)

is ray woodard the guy from Navarro?

as of noon today no formal offer has been made to Stump. Some say he turned Lamar down. Lamar has not offered anything to turn down.

Thanks

Well, let's hope Woodard is offered the job! Stump has still got some work to do at WB!
