Maybe that is why we have signed so many HS receivers.

Do we know for sure that Rogers will graduate this spring or does he need to wait until grades are in to be able to use the free transfer?

Is he going as a graduate transfer? He already used his free transfer. Don't see how he has 2 years of eligibility left but wish him all the best. Must be a pretty good kid or he wouldn't have been voted a captain this year. He handled the demotion from starting QB well.

How long until we see a salary cap in place? I guess a player's union will be next. What happens when a million dollar QB gets beat out by a $30k backup? Does the backup hold out for more money? It's a slippery slope. The pros have agents to advise and negotiate for them. Is that next? Most 19-20 year olds have no idea how all of this works. There has to be a better system.

I doubt that he gets drafted. Probably will get a chance to go to camp with someone as an undrafted free agent.

He started every conference game. That is what the teams should be chosen on. Stats are obviously not taken into consideration, just team records.

Welcome to the new NCAA D1 football world. It sucks but things aren't going to change.

Can't blame him for taking the money. He held up his end of the deal by playing great and going to class and graduating. Good Luck to him. Next man up!

Anyone know when they will announce the conference football schedule for next year? Since we played the 4 best teams this year, I would hope we would get to play some of the lower tier teams. Eastern Carolina, FAU, Charlotte, ect. It will be interesting to see who they pair us with for our rivalry game since Smut is gone. Maybe Tulsa? Non conference games are set with trips to South Alabama and Texas Tech.

He's saying that he isn't good enough to earn any meaningful minutes. He a good kid the plays hard in practice and doesn't complain. If he could help at all, he would have played today in the first half when our bigs both had 3 fouls. I've wanted to see him play because he looks like a player but obviously the coaches don't think he would help.

We're replacing most of our scoring last year and our biggest post player. New coach, new players, better competition. If we were getting blown out, it would be different. Listen to the coach calling our game. We're going to get better from tournaments like this.

Troll somewhere else!

How in the heck does losing a one point game to St. John's wipe away any hype or expectations? If anything it increases it. People around the country see this score and know North Texas is for real. This tournament will help get us ready for conference play. St. John's is as physical as any team in the AAC.

Hope we have some gas left in the tank. Great opportunity to see how Hodge handles these types of situations. He is doing a great job. Love this team!

We weren't going to get a foul call there, so we got one of our best players a shot from the elbow for the win. I'll take it.

They like to run so we need to slow the pace and limit their possessions on offense. Muck it up like we did last year. Isn't always fun to watch but effective in keeping us in games against good teams. Go Mean Green!

Smut will give them over 100,000 reasons!$$$$$$$$

2 year contract

Smut seems to have plenty of extra cash laying around. Maybe we should ask them!

If Caponi is fired, who is paying the buyout on his 2 year contract?

I've noticed the past few years that lots of empty lower bowl seats have the white season ticket banners on them. Wish we could start a program where those seats could be donated to local schools, first responders or youth groups. The Mavericks do that on their Veterans Day celebrations. The companies or people that buy them could get a tax break and people that want to see the games could fill those seats. Is this an AD question?

I hope we will be able to get some extended playing time for our bench guys to see what they have. I was hoping Morgan would take the next step and be able to give us some minutes against bigger front lines. He sure looks the part. Also, would like to see Moore some. He impressed me in the few minutes he got last year. Not sure what to think about our other JC transfer Terrance Johnson and the freshman Cotton. They may be projects and need time to develop. Last night looked a lot like last year. We have a set rotation in the first half, but it is only 8 players. I don't think Stone saw the floor in the second half, so we played with 7. Allen was playing great, so Sissoko didn't play in OT. Thought we looked gassed at the end of regulation. I think playing faster on offense is going to require more than 8 in the rotation, but I trust in Hodge! Go Mean Green!

Walker hasn't been cleared to play by the NCAA. Good chance that he will have to sit out this year since they aren't granting many waivers. Used his free transfer to go from Ok. State to TCU.

I think he missed it because we had ball boys on the court using towels to clean the floor as he is going to the basketball.
