coachacola Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 From Dave Campbell's Texas Football... Lamar’s defense posting a 0.292 DPPP, having played FBS Texas State, Mississippi Valley State, and No. 20 Weber State, is very impressive... This Cardinals will be in contention for the Southland title alongside UIW... it's behind a paywall but here's the link to the full article. https://www.texasfootball.com/article/2024/09/20/the-blitz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthoftheBorder Posted September 21 Author Share Posted September 21 So, thinking about the Culture Shift article, and some of my previous posts on other threads, here is where O’Malley can start the process of long term growth success in football. If the season plays out with Rossomando as it is trending now(need some luck to stay injury free or minimal), he should be talking to key donors and Rossomando about the future, and how to grow the program so everyone benefits, the university, Rossomando, and the alumni/fans! Start putting the plan together now and not wait until a more attractive offer comes Rossomando’s way and we are reactive instead of proactive! That has never worked for LU in the past.

I'm sure they're having those sorts of talks already. We can't be reactive; we don't pay him as much as he could make as a coordinator on the P4 level and it's not isolated to Lamar. After UIW's run 2 years ago, Kinne was deciding his 2023 fate between: - Bigger salary to be TAMU Offensive Coordinator - Smaller salary to be the Texas State Head Coach He bet on himself and now has the bigger salary and the Head Coach job but it was about 50% more money to take the Texas A&M OC job under Jimbo than it was to be a HC... and that's on the FBS level. There are even position coaches who make what Rossomando makes so, if we want him to stay, we need to start getting compensation, financial and benefits, locked up.
