A Sea Of Red

Does this bring a certain someone to mind?

Christopher McComas, a system integration specialist at Marshall University, sent in an earnest argument for why he should be given the reins via a letter to UND athletic director Brian Faison.

It really is quite something:

Currently, I work in IT at a college in West Virginia, but I have many years of experience with football, starting with attending my first Marshall University football game when I was 3 years old. In the past 30 years I’ve only missed a handful of Marshall’s home games, attended many road games, and all of their bowl games.

All the while I played various football games including Madden on Sega Genesis where I completely dominated with the Bills and Thurman Thomas. Seriously, was he a beast on the game or was he a beast because I was a football genius controlling him? I then moved on to a Playstation gaming system and purchased NCAA Football every year and put together several programs that completely dominated the recruiting scene and college football winning several national titles with Marshall University. I took them from a decent Mid-American Conference School on the game to a perennial national power that makes Nick Saban look like a chump. One year my third string quarterback left school early to enter the NFL Draft, he was a first round pick. Boom.

My football philosophy is basically an attacking one. We’re going to give AIR RAID a whole new definition. Theoretically how many times do you think a team can pass in a game? Challenge accepted. We’re going 5 wide, chucking the pigskin all over the place. Never punt. Onside every time. Chip Kelly will be calling me to learn my offense. We will put on an exciting brand of football, we will pack them into the Alerus Center night in and night out, go ahead and blow the roof off the place and add about 35,000 seats to that place.

I would love to speak with you further regarding this opening and what I can bring to UND, putting UND back on the national map and making NDSU our (b****).

Attached to this email you will find a PowerPoint with more information.

Thanks,

Christopher McComas

PS – I prefer Coke to Pepsi, so go ahead and fill the fridge up in the head coach’s office with Coke.”

And there's more with a PowerPoint presentation included.

HMO, you let your friend down, you're effort was not up to par with this one.

Which is why his services are no longer retained...I could have used his help when I applied for a coaching job at JF this past fall

What position did you apply for at JF?

JF currently has an opening at football coach....

I'll pass on opportunities in Lynchburg for the short term. The wife and I are just settling down in Portsmouth after finishing up our move yesterday. Thanks for the tip though Henry

This was worth me coming out of hiding for. I posted this on Facebook a few days ago because it brought back so many good memories. BJ we may need to update the resume here soon...while I dont think we can get the HC job at Texas we could definitely go for the OC job.

You need to see the slide show...he took what I did years ago and made it better. Time to step up my game. http://www.businessinsider.com/north-da ... on-2013-12

I'll pass on coaching opportunities in general for the short term. Oh and HMO I am not retaining your services going forward (translation: youre fired)

Brookville is desperate for a FB coach. They couldn't find anyone to take it last year and moved an assistant up who has stepped down. You could play on the Logan Thomas legacy and not miss any LU football games. Sounds like a win win!

Is that how you treat the man that has helped you in so many ways? Firing him publicly on Flamefans?? That is low beej
