Layne's grandmother is bravely battling cancer and his decision was based on staying closer to her and the rest of the family as they support her during this difficult time. UNT did the right thing for this young man by letting him out of his signed NLI.

calling BS on the "girlfriend"

only 1 UNT magnet left? They must be selling like hotcakes.

Girlfriend ? Anniversary ?

cousin oliver, you need to think long and hard.

What being a UNT fan is like right now:

I think everyone who enters the portal gets one as a parting gift.

I am on GOMEANGREEN.com. Therefore, I must overthink.

Just seems like he wanted to stay close to home. I doubt theres a need to overthink it.

It’s INSANE!!! So we are encouraged to contribute to a NIL fund to pay players who have absolutely no loyalty to our school and then if we want to watch them play we must buy a ticket, pay for parking etc.? Count me out.

Thanks NCAA!!! "You maniacs! You blew it up! Damn you!

1st scenario is more probable than not. 2nd scenario is not likely.

He under threw the garter and a bridesmaid intercepted it.

I’m confused.

Put the best player out there…period

I am ready for a rule change but our roster is no different than most other rosters right now. Good thing Ross Hodge gets paid well because this is some BS to have to go through.

He deserves to be the starter if he beats out Chandler Morris.

The game starts at 6 p.m. Wednesday if anybody is near Denton and could make it. They were $15 each. I could use a couple but will give up all nine and stand in right field if that means more people rooting on the Green Wednesday. I wanted to keep them out of the hands of Aggie fans. I know this doesn't belong in this forum but wanted to maximize visibility to help benefit the softball ladies.

Just say "NO" to high school developmental players!

This is humiliating.

"The Grand Old Man of Football" Amos Alonzo Stagg (August 16, 1862 – March 17, 1965) Stagg was a member of the first "All American Team" in 1889 when he played at Yale. He then coached from 1890 to 1946 at the University of Chicago and the University of the Pacific and won the 1905 and 1913 National Championships. He designed much of the game of football during his career. Amos Alonzo Stagg with North Texas coach Odus Mitchell the night before the 1946 Optimist Bowl. The bowl game, a 14-13 loss to North Texas, was the final game of Stagg's legendary college football coaching career.

Yeah, sadly, I fear that the answer is pretty simple: we have the worst NIL in the conference. Until that changes, we'll be sending Hodge into a gunfight with a knife. The further we get into the NIL era, the harder it's going to be to keep up the momentum from past success. At this point we're basically just hoping and praying that Hodge is a WAY better coach/recruiter/evaluater than his AAC counterparts. Even if he is really good at those things, we can't just expect him to pull off miracles every single season.

I'm hearing Caleb Williams is withdrawing from the NFL draft and transferring to UNT after getting a lifetime mani-pedi offer from a local nail salon.

Getting to the NCAA tournament is an accomplishment. I think we have momentum and sustainability to lose. For us, that is a tremendous loss. Not to say we can't keep the mojo going, but it's easier when a trusted nucleus is returning.

Next season will be fun. We’re going to learn a lot about Ross’ talent evaluation and what kind of team he wants. I’m excited in that regard.

True. I guess we'll see if the gif is accurate or if I should have posted someone writhing on the ground instead.

Honestly, I am having a difficult time pulling the trigger on renewing my football season tickets when there is complete roster turnover, very little information coming from the department and coaches obviously telling our kids to "test the waters".

I want a coach that is telling his guys to invest in our program and make it great and not to use us as a stepping stone.

Yep. They want an NIL? I want a list of what players are being paid what amount and how their name, image or likeness is being used to earn these dollars. The fans give this money so we have a right to know. These kids entering the portal and signing elsewhere, I want to know what we offered/paid and what the new school is paying. Too much secrecy when the fan base is paying the salaries.

First year in 20+ that I'm hesitant to pull the trigger on renewing my 4 season football tickets. Tired of never "winning the big game", tired of "it's about me", and "show me the money". Very little or no loyalty to "the team or school". Maybe I'm too old to be a college football/basketball fan.....

Fanbase? What fanbase? Even the hardcore followers on gmg are walking away. Very little interest or traffic anymore. Covid, the portal, NIL and the economy have all taken a hit on what little fan base we had. Ignoring, or excluding your most ardent supporters during Spring Practice was a pretty shallow decision as well. I guess when we start the season 6-0 the fans will magically start to show up at Datcu.

I saw enough of him to strongly believe he would have helped this team from day 1 https://www.cbssports.com/watch/college-basketball/video/pro-16-recap-layne-taylor-college-basketball-recruiting-weekly

Building something special, gotta be talking about the waterpark right??

I guess he wasn't lying when he said he wanted out of his NLI to be somewhere closer to home. Not sure what his home situation is like (maybe he has family that needs help?), but UCA is much closer to it.

Weird situation to say the least.

Something not right with this. I’m thinking this was a mutual parting of ways for some reason.

Good for him. I'm glad he found somewhere close to home that he can play right away.

LOL - Central Arkansas went 9-23 this past season

To be fair he said without a HC change.

The only positive thing I can take from this is the dude is taking the nut kicking pretty well. Perhaps meaning we'll still win 20 games next year?

I think McCasland will get the Baylor job and Tech may be looking as Ross to replace him.

The TE from UCO is going to be really fun to watch. If he has the ability to be a grad transfer he may only be here a year. That is a P5 TE.

We can only assume the alleged “girlfriend” bought Cousin Oliver the North Texas magnet. She might have purchased the “Nanna” magnet or they ever popular “Tarleton State” mag. There is no level of intimacy or commitment indicated.

Pretty sure there is this thing called “a computer” that would allow them to make models to properly calculate the seats per row.

How much is it though? And are we at least competing with our conference peers? Those are the questions I'd like answers to. I find the turnover pretty concerning. The only other program I can think of that's going through the same thing we are that didn't lose their coach is ECU. They've lost 8 players.

"He got married this weekend" *inserts picture of random couple* This has real potential as a bit. Maybe we can use it when HS recruits sign. Cameron Christian, DL c/o '26 has signed with the Mean Green. Congratulations!
