Mountain West Conference

An AP release earlier today (Sun, Sept 25th) states that coach Locksley was fired and defensive coordinator George Barlow is interim head coach:

I had been behind coach Locksley from the beginning, giving him the benefit of the doubt, especially given the best recriuting EVER the last two years, up to the Sam Houston State loss yesterday. i finally snapped, "He's gotta go!"

The new Locksley recruits are now playing. He now longer has that benefit of the doubt. We can't beat Sam Houst State at home??? Plus, we had 16,313 - worst attendance in almost 20 yrs.

I think it was worth a shot with him, it looked great on paper, but it didn't work out.

Good luck coach Barlow! And good luck to Rocky Long next year when we (hopefully) get him back!

What are your thoughts?
