  1. My whole UNT life has been who is the qb. Now all I care about is can we get a left tackle!?

  3. I don't need to visit as I still remember. I don't want to go back there anytime soon. I wish we were 8-0, but I don't think it's terrible that we're not. First, we have a very reasonable shot at a true 10 win regular season - something we've never done before. Secondly, our win at Arkansas combined with the punt saw 'round the world, is getting us more notice than being undefeated would. We don't have to go back to 1975 to point to a signature win again. I don't care if the pigs are having a down year as NEXT year we'll still be talking about humiliating them in Fayetteville and only the people at Arkansas will know it was in a down year. As long as we aren't waiting decades for our next signature win, we'll be in great shape. It's still green and good, just not green and perfect!

  4. Could we have played a cleaner game? Absolutely. Another win for North Texas? I'll take it! Congrats to the team. Let's keep the momentum going.

  6. Does the offense go into the locker at half every game and get their balls cut off? Good Lord we're worse than Dodge right now.

  11. For the first time in 14 years, UT-Arlington is seriously considering the revival of its dormant football program. UTA president Vistasp Karbhari and athletic director Jim Baker have examined the costs of adding a football team within the next 10 years, according to documents obtained through an open records request. In addition to football, the Mavericks have also looked at adding women's soccer and beach volleyball. In 1985, the university disbanded its football program because of budget constraints. In a statement provided Thursday, Baker said the university is seeking an additional feasibility study from a third party. Baker also said the football program "must be exclusively funded by private, philanthropic resources" and exclude any additional money from student fees. Through school spokespersons, Baker and Karbhari declined interview requests Thursday. Karbhari also cited Baker's statement when asked for a comment. In September, the state's attorney general ruled UTA had to release selected emails and documents about UTA's football program. Those materials were released earlier this week after The News filed a complaint to the state's attorney general office. According to an internal budget projection, adding those three sports could cost UTA $146.7 million over 10 years. During the 2017 fiscal year, UTA reported $530,067 in athletic donations and $14.1 million in total operating athletic revenue. Adding women's soccer and beach volleyball brings an estimated combined cost of $10 million over 10 years, with volleyball starting in Year 2 and soccer in Year 3. The two sports would have 20 combined full scholarships, which would help UTA fulfill the Title IX obligations that come with adding 85 football scholarships. In April, Baker and Karbhari reviewed a document that featured a 10-year projection for the football program. By the sixth year, the Mavericks would have a team competing in the Football Bowl Subdivision, the NCAA's highest level.

  12. In my opinion. He is the best at promoting UNT and our football program on social media. I love that he predicted a perfect season and stays so involved. He seems to be willing to do whatever is asked of him to sell Mean Green football. I hope more former players follow his example.

  15. Its hard not to think of this teams offense in the first 4 games and compare it to what has happened since. Ever since only the USM game was similarish to those first 4 weeks. Other than the loss of Easley there really was nobody going out that can explain this regression. It is hard to think that this is anything other than focus. If the team is not focused that is an indictment of the offensive staff and SL.

  21. I think UAB/SMiss/LaTech/UNT could take care of all the East teams. West is pretty strong at the top, with some depth. Lost in this battle for the West: I think if we had beaten UAB and LaTech, we'd be ranked by now. Pure speculation, of course. UAB is getting some votes, but I am not sure they will get ranked even if they win CUSA title game. A T25 ranking would be great for the league.

  22. Dear Mr. Mcingvale a big Thank You for all that you have done for The University of North Texas, the residents of the Houston area and the other folks that you have touched all over this nation. You are a fine man and set an example the rest of us can only hope to achieve. Your Degree is well deserved and I am proud that you and I attended the same University, UNT. GO MEAN GRENN!!!

  23. Yes it is. Thats like wishing cheap shot after cheap shot on your neighbor’s dog. Poor dog, leave him alone! And that dude does not need to come close to a football field ever again. Can’t imagine what his son would play like in little league with dad coaching.

  29. Get there early for tailgating. I’ve never had a problem. Rarely any line. If you arrive within an hour or so of kickoff, just set your expectations to wait in a line for a bit, but you’ll still be fine.

  30. I don't see how a school with 40k students can be specialized. They are doing a great job in upping their research and churning out good degrees for the money. However, I really don't know. You probably know more than me.. What are they trying to specialize in? Seems like UNT is falling by the wayside when UTD and UTA are about to pass us by. UTD is incredible with their science... hard to believe they almost have 30k students. I doubt UTA or UTD will have the total college 'feel' of UNT. But Football on campus will help that process along..

  36. I honestly believe Seth is a great coach, but after 3 years, I'm convinced he's not elite, mainly because we never win the games we need to win. Often, in those games we are embarrassed and/or don't play well at all. I'm not going to complain with 7-8 wins a year because its consistent success that we haven't seen in a long time, but until Littrell starts winning the MUST WIN games, I can't trust him as a coach to really hit that elite level.We should be so much better than we've shown the last 4 weeks, but we are shitting the bed again, just like the last 3 years. 2016 - UTEP to hit 6-6(got bailed out by our APR), Army 2017 - FAU x2, Troy 2018 - LaTech, UAB, probably our bowl game this year. I guess the silver lining is that if he keeps losing the must win games, we might hang on to him longer, but are we really going to be happy with this kind of success? I recall a conversation on the board about some people that prefer 8 wins a year type team, and others preferring the few mediocre years with a 12-1 type season. At this point are we happy with 8 wins a year? Because it looks like Littrell hits his ceiling at that point.

  40. Did not read through all 8 pages, but wow. The guy is doing great. Yeah we've lost some games we probably shouldn't have, but to suggest its purely Littrell's fault and that he's hit his ceiling in year 3 is so..... off. Keep it up Coaches and Wren Baker. Y'all are really assembling something to be proud of.

  41. This would be perfect, but have we stopped recruiting Preston Wilson and/or LaDarius Henderson? I’ll settle for any one of these three, but it’d be perfect if we could get this dude and one of Wilson or Henderson.

  42. Cal doesn’t scare me. They are 4-3, 1-3 in Conference and let Idaho St put 23 points on them. They lose 11 seniors from their starting 22,....7 Of which are on offense including 3 of their starting 5 O linemen. They’ll be led by a RS sophomore. We’ll have a senior. It’s a long time till we get there but we have just as good a chance against them as anyone else at this point. Rick
