    When do you graduate?

    Texas has a hell of a lot of talent for all sports. I know, coming from Kansas, that this is a foreign concept for you, but we don’t have to go all over the U.S. to find talent like KU does. Hell, their best basketball player the past two years was from Denton. 

    The post you responded to is an example of someone who doesn’t know a thing about sports. Specifically club soccer. Texas has amazing girls soccer. Should they look to lesser recognized areas? Volleyball is ridiculously respected nationwide too in DFW alone. Same as football. That opinion is one of a person who has ridiculous sports IQ and exposure to sports. Or specifically narrow minded…

  2. Thank you sir may I have another! 
     

    Is that what he should say? He was let go. He doesn’t need to give a statement. He certainly doesn’t owe the fans a damn thing. I’m sure if they let him speak to the team he would. If not, that’s on the university and he doesn’t need to talk to anyone else but possibly his coaches. Which they are 100 percent talking.

    I could be wrong here, but it seems to me that most coaches who are going to be let go are shown the door before the bowl game, not after.  What’s the benefit of having him coach the bowl game?

    Most coaches going to bowls aren’t fired. 2 weeks wouldn’t have mattered and the new AD could hire whoever. It was poorly handled imo.

  4. My fear is we will be missing 6 win seasons in the very near future once we hit the AAC. It’s absolutely ridiculous they fired him before the bowl game. North Texas makes really bad choices in sports more than they should. Minus soccer. For me it’s sad they did this the day they announced the bowl. It takes  away from the players accomplishments.

    Respectfully, "we ended their undefeated season" despite never sniffing one ourselves and getting blown out by 40 at home two days ago isn't quite the flex you think it is. It's a new season. UTSA's football future looks more promising than ours right now. Sigh...

    I assure you they are still pissed. That loss in 2013 made me hate them.
     

    We are about to be 2-1. I don’t think it’s time to hit the panic button yet.

    Actually, after reading several of the posts there, I'm surprised they aren't more optimistic.  We historically have trouble playing on a big stage, on the road, and in El Paso.  It was amazing we were able to scrape by against them at home last year.  Yet several Miners over there are predicting a UNT win.

    They are predicting it because UTEP loses a lot. It’s not big stage. We go up the Sun Bowl will be empty fast. I had season tickets there growing up. The fans will abandon them quickly. If we jump out on top early there will be a sigh and collective eye roll of here we go again. And back to the tailgate or bar. They will be rowdy if we give them a reason to cheer but they are use to bad football.

    Anyone on here planning to travel to El Paso this Saturday? Not sure if there is a thread over this yet, but I’ll be there with 3 others. Flying in early Saturday morning and planning to tailgate with some UTEP folks before.

    Never been to the Sun Bowl before, I’m excited.

    Hope we can see some Mean Green representation in El Paso!!!

    The Sun Bowl is cool the way it is in between the hills but the inside needs remodeling. Bathrooms are gross. Make sure you get some Mexican food.

    Love that place but my go to is Riviera on the Westside. When I lived there we were there several times a week. Great bar too. Mesilla is super cool but it’s a bit far but worth it. Cattlemen’s in Fabens too. So fun. 
     

    We better win. Last time I flew out we lost and it sucked.
