Cris Dishman is “all in” at Texas Southern. Indeed, he’s aware of the university’s unnecessarily messy coaching search after not renewing Clarence McKinney’s contract following a 3-8 campaign. But Dishman believes everything happens for a reason.
“We all know I wasn’t the No. 1 or the No. 2 choice. I probably wasn’t the third choice, but I was God’s choice. I’m happy I was the No. 1 choice in God’s eyes,” Dishman said. “When I got the call that I got the job, my wife knew exactly what that meant. She didn’t even hesitate before saying, ‘Let’s get to work.’”
