Carroll coach among Rice considerations

Carroll football coach Todd Dodge has been named among the possible candidates for the head coaching vacancy at Rice University.
Dodge’s name was on a list mentioned in today’s edition of the Houston Chronicle, but he said his focus is on the Dragons (13-0) and their Class 5A Division II Region I title game with Plano (13-0) on Saturday.

“I’m pretty tunnel-visioned with what I’ve got going on right now," Dodge said this afternoon.

Rice coach Ken Hatfield announced his resignation Wednesday, and the school has already begun a nationwide search for a replacement.

Dodge was caught off guard when told about his name being among the potential candidates, saying “that’s news to me” and that he has no information about it.

Dodge, an assistant coach at North Texas for two years, said he has been contacted in recent years about other college openings but evaluated them after the season was over.

“Right now I’m very occupied with the Carroll Dragons," he said.

Yeah, and everytime I see it, it makes me think more and more that he will pass it up. I just don't think he will leave SLC to coach there...

Better re think that one. He done all he could do here. A D-1 job means D-1 playing time for son Riley and as stated in earlier thread an EXTRA ZERO on payday.

who would ever believe that lonny would have the most posts on his sig too? what a surprise-not. best does not equal most and vice versa.

I called and gave a personal recommendation for Todd this morning ;) - just kidding - I'm sure he'll do what's best for his family.

I wonder if he would leave if some div. 1 university would give him 1 millon reason$ to think about it!;) If slc has another coach that can keep the system running on like it is,it would`nt hurt as bad.But i would think he would take the majority of the staff with him.Maybe the booster club could match the offer!:D
