I somewhat agree, it is very difficult for TSU to recruit Houston because the fan base is disengaged. The best opportunity for TSU to recruit is in North, and East TX. TSU has an alum coaching a Fort Worth team in the playoffs now. TSU has many alums coaching in the DFW area, do you think anyone from TSU reaches out to them?
TSU has an alum that was a 4 year starter at TSU coaching in DFW, who's daddy and grandaddy played for TSU. Think the current staff can tell you who he is?
The selection process for hiring football coaches at TSU has been flawed for a long time. I'm hoping with the administration changes the selection process will change as well.
Texas Southern Football is a sleeping giant that the scientist keep fugging up the formula. It's obvious that why fans are disengaged and wondering if they doing the shat on purpose. TSU posts 3-4 winning seasons and they will not have to recruit Houston. Houston will come to us.
Haywood was a bad decision form the start. He had been out of the game too long, and couldn't get a job anywhere else (even as a special teams coach). He always thought he was better than TSU. He is a stubborn system guy. He believes his system wins, if it doesn't it must be the players. He refuses to or doesn't know how to adjust his system to the players he has. The game has passed him by. He should be fired or reassigned to facilities maintenance and handed a toilet scrubber.
