Everything’s bigger in Texas

The title of this blog entry could mean this is about a lot of things, but this time I am talking about the feud going on at North Texas University. After firing Coach Darrell Dickey, things have spun out of control at the Denton, TX university campus. First coach Dickey snuck black uniforms on to the team for their last game without the athletic department’s permission. Then during halftime the team’s offensive coordinator got in a fight with the wide receivers coach over which players to play. The craziest part of this story is the fact that Jim McIngvale, a North Texas booster threatened to withhold a $1 million dollar donation to the school unless the school renamed the practice facility after fired coach Dickey. So next year, the team will practice at the Dickey practice facility even though the coach will be long gone. Sounds like a Texas sized problem to me.
