  1. Love that DMN can post articles about a non-existent football program at UTA, but no mention of the Mean Green and the upcoming bowl season!

  8. Man and Mean Green fans did pounce. And they were for the most part respectful. It's awesome We have to continue to show our numbers when we get blatant disrespect in the local media. That's how a fan base gets credibility. Apathy has been a hallmark of UNT athletics for years.....It looks like that ship is starting to turn a little. We need people outside UNT to say "whoa! Mean Green fans aren't messing around" Keep the pressure up!

  9. Mack Brown made his first round of cuts today. And former UNT Co-DC Mike Ekeler was one of the first to go. Hate that for Eke always like his passion.

  11. Also, Art Briles was not a scapegoat. He was knowledgeable of and involved in actively trying to cover up incidents in which his players were involved outside of Baylor's disciplinary system. Lawsuits involving gang rapes by football players are still pending/being settled, so it's early to say whether it was just the half dozen guys who actually got in trouble, or the 20-30 guys who've been accused.

  12. I’m not an Art Briles fan but I do believe he was the scapegoat in a much bigger problem. I also believe if he had taken the Texas job in 2014 instead of spurning them to stay at Baylor, none of this would’ve ever made national news. Call me tin foil hat guy all you want but the Longhorns carry a massive media stick.

  16. Let’s clarify your assumption here. He’s had an agent since he got to Denton from Chapel Hill in 2015 (as does every other HFC and major college coordinator). He changed agencies this season to Jimmy Sexton’s firm.

  21. JD is trustworthy. His sources are reliable. There are also a few big time donors/insiders on the board that I won't name that are also reliable sources. Basically if it comes from him, it's accurate, or as close to accurate as you can get.

  23. Kendal Briles was their top target. He parlayed Tx State interest into a new contract as one of the higher paid OC in the country.

  29. if Zach developed a 10 foot game, I'd agree entirely. he doesn't have it right now and I'd rather he not start forcing it. rather than a a high pick and roll I think "plan B" is going to have to be finding ways to simply unbalance the floor and spread out more for Ryan. his combination of quickness and athleticism and size is a nightmare...I love that he wants to distribute first, but he could drop 30 if he were more selfish. striking that balance when necessary will be a big key to the year

  31. good lord I hate how so many of you are completely unable to separate your homer-ism from an objective assessment of a game. I swear the ignorance of forever having bad programs coupled with the entitlement of small-scale success leads to some of the worst sports takes ever tonight was absolutely an opportunity and I'm disappointed we didn't take full advantage. OU is a mid-level at best Big 12 team and we match up individually in terms of talent. that said, they dug in and really used their length to be disruptive on defense, especially in the first half, and we undoubtedly came out playing that one-beat quicker than ideal...rushed some shots, didn't execute as we normally would. we made some really good second half adjustments...Ryan was fantastic...he's becoming an all-time favorite of mine as he's one of the few in program history I can think of as having both above average measurables and a high hoops IQ. he was smartly assertive and their defense started to collapse more. we just missed shots...and anyone who has ever played this game understands that missed shots, especially bunnies like the Simmons' boys kept missing are highly contagious. I'm not happy with Grant for the weird Tikho/Gibson sequence in the second half...honestly, I don't think Gibson should've seen the floor in the second half...he looked erratic to me against the likes of Hawaii and lesser opponents and felt if he didn't knock down a few shots early he'd start pressing against OU. alas. Gibson will end up averaging 25 a night as a senior, but he has some IQ limitations right now and they were exposed. other than that, I think Grant's adjustments were spot on...we just didn't execute. we have a good and fun basketball team...two years after having five years of embarrassment. stop being so douchey after every (now much rarer) loss

  32. Seemed like that 3-minute stretch around 13:00 - 10:00 (started at ~38-41, ended at ~40-48) was what did us in. Picked up some fouls that were iffy, & turned the ball over or missed some layups/open shots. After that, the guys started playing too tight & it got sloppy. We can be better, and I think we’ll do well in conference play.

  38. If I was to place odds on Seth leaving after this season, I would probably make them about 4 to 1. in other words, I strongly think that he will be here next season. Seth is building a great resume. Right now it is good enough to be considered for one or more P5 jobs. But, I am not sure it is strong enough yet to actual get offered a position that he would really want. He is doing a terrific here. I just think he needs at least 1 more successful season behind him before serious offers start coming in. If our team was undefeated or had 1 loss right now, I would think differently. But, they started off so strong and received all that national attention after going 4-0. Since then, they have been an average CUSA team. I think the last 8 games might cause just a bit of hesitation for P5 schools with open positions.

  39. Yeah, it's funny how few convictions there are when every authority figure, from assistant coaches to ADs to police, actively work to cover up crimes and hang the victims out to dry. A number of cases haven't even gone to trial yet (Armstead, Oakman), so I wouldn't be hanging my hat on "well, only 2 of 20-30 guys alleged to have committed assaults, sexual assaults, and gang rapes have been convicted." A lot of them won't ever be in trouble, won't ever be indicted, won't ever be convicted of anything. But I think there's enough in the reports that have come out to say that this wasn't a few bad apples who had no impact. If there weren't GOOD players involved in anything, there's no reason for Art to have worked so hard to sweep things under the rug. Hell, he could make a statement by suspending and cutting the scrub players.

  42. The US is the leader in per capita emissions, and has been for quite some time. In 2016, the US had a CO2 rate of 16.4 tonnes per capita, versus China at 7.36 tonnes. Looking at the absolute numbers, China is the big elephant in the room, however, to suggest that the US shouldn't act because we're only the second worst, is childish. Source

  43. Mo Gibson’s numbers against DI opponents compared to against DII opponents are night and day. Still just his third D1 Road game of his career. He has shown a lot of ability. Once he gets fully acclimated to the speed of the game he’s gonna be a dog for us.

  46. I don't think the payout matters. I believe the conference gets the payout and covers costs for the bowl team first, then distributes the remainder.
