We've brought in two D linemen & two LBs & too many DBs. Look at the current verbals for '24. How many D linemen??? It's been proven at every level, you win with Defense. Why does this get overlooked for so many years?

Patterson wouldn't put his name on this defense in a million years. He's got a freaking statue in FW, he doesn't need this headache. -Besides, his ego is bigger than his statue & there's not enough money in Denton to get him north of Joe T. Garcia's.

That's shocking how small the defense is.

If Neal would have let RV hire Meacham, we'd be on year 3 with Joey McGwire.

Mean Green vs Memphis: Score Prediction Thread

59-19 Gatos. -
I've really enjoyed watching DeAndre compete. I think he's comparable to Erric Pegram.

As to why they didn't get transfer help? I don't know. Maybe they tried, maybe they thought they had the horses in the barn. My observation is that this staff isn't committed to Defense. Are they committed to passing numbers & touchdown passes? Absolutely. That's the identity they sell. I don't know what they sell on D. I'm not saying there's not a developmental component in the reason they're historically terrible, but when I see other defenses we play, I have a hard time saying "Our starter is better than theirs."

OR... They just aren't good enough. Outside of Novil, that side of the ball can't play. The sample size is large enough.

I’d take Kaydon Kirby over Fortenberry. 2015: • Named to the Remington and Lombardi Award watch lists • Played in and started 10 games at center, before suffering an injury against Tennessee • Dating back to his redshirt freshman season, he had started 35 straight games at center 2014: • Started all 12 games and has started 25 straight games at center • The Mean Green rushed for over 200 yards on three different occasions in 2014 • The Mean Green ran for 21 touchdowns in 2014, which is tied for the eighth most in school history. 2013: • Named to the Conference USA All-Freshman team after starting all 13 games at center • Was part of an offensive line that has allowed only 11 sacks on the season and the fewest sacks in the nation with 17 over the last two years • Paved the way for Brandin Byrd to rush for over 1,000 yards • Was part of a record-breaking offense that has set a school record for total yards in a season with 5,336 • First freshman to start every game at center since Andy Brewster in 2001 2012: • Redshirted -

Yup. Other than Novil, I wouldn’t give a bag of beans for both lines next year.

Nice prospect! Violently quick.

***OFFICIAL UNT vs CHARLOTTE FAN IN-GAME DISCUSSION***
817Fan replied to Harry's topic in Mean Green Football
New stadium, fourth year coach, new IPF? Same D line recruiting. Look at the last 2 classes & tell me where the help is coming from. Blame the DC, blame the whole damn staff. They have proven they can’t bring in front seven talent. Won’t get better anytime soon. But hey we’ve got 18 WRs. -
‘20 DT Alvin Dempsey - East Central CC Miss
817Fan replied to 97and03's topic in UNT Football Recruiting
I understand the staff was counting on the K-State transfer but after four years this position group has been abandoned. No chance at the CUSA title if this group isn't better than S. Miss & LA Tech. Take a look at the Southern Miss roster. If we had that size I'd be fine with 18 WRs. -
What does the program need to move to the next level?
817Fan replied to Coach Andy Mac's topic in Mean Green Football
There's no commitment here to recruit size on the lines of scrimmage. The D line rotation is too small. The LBs are too small. The O line is average on their good days. The team who wins CUSA will have the best line play.
