New Mexico fires coach.

[tourist]

From Associated Press:
Mike Locksley, whose three years as head football coach at New Mexico have been mostly marked by losses and off-field problems, was fired Sunday.
Athletic director Paul Krebs announced Locksley's dismissal in a statement and said associate head coach and defensive coordinator George Barlow will serve as interim head coach for the rest of the season.

That's pretty rare for mid-season, but his record was TERRIBLE.

Record was the least of Locksley's concerns..

Well, technically, his "record" will have something to do w/ it.

Where are the rumors of Montana's coach being a frontrunner for this job? Man, I am so disappointed in egrizzers anymore. Our team struggles, and we lose our edge..........GEESH.

At this point I think people would be willing to pay to have Pflugrad relocated.

I am not quite to that point. However, if we lose to either UNC or ISU. I will donate what I can afford to buy out his contract. Right now, I am like 60/40 in favor of him. Unless we have a nice playoff run, I doubt my favoring him will rise above 70/30. It is on the verge of falling very fast with any more disappointing games, with lousy play.
