GMG initially: "UTSA can't afford anyone worth a damn for $500k."
GMG after it's reported that UTSA will spend $800k: "Oh well only position coaches and retreads are interested."
GMG after Spencer is interviewed: "Oh well he isn't that good anyways."
LOL we could hire Saban and yall would find a way to minimize it. Litrell was a good hire, I have no problem acknowledging that. Spencer would be a good hire for us too especially considering the circumstances. Not sure why yall find it so hard to acknowledge that.

Ruh roh. Looks like we aren't as broke or unattractive as GMG would like to believe.

Not difficult to recruit to Oklahoma State, Auburn, and TCU. nUTSAck not so much.
That can be said for any coach that comes from a P5 school. For example: not difficult to have an explosive offense with the athletes at UNC. UNT not so much.

Y'all wouldn't have been able to afford him as an OC and definitely not as a positions coach so the fact that y'all wanted him for either position is irrelevant. He was making $400k at Auburn and probably making around the same at TCU.

Doubt that salary is for real, considering the assistants are paid so poorly that they would rather be at the likes of Eastern Michigan. Expecting $600 or so, peanuts to the assistants. Welcome to FBS. Probably the total amount.
Cute, though. You and TXST are a match made for each other. #smalltime
Are you serious? Losing seasons 11 of the past 12 years, losing record against UTSA, coming off a 1 win season. You really shouldn't be looking down on anyone. Litrell is a good hire on paper but no coaching change is a guarantee especially at UNT. Even if he were to turn the program around it's not going to happen overnight.

three names being mentioned: Hal Mumme, Tony Levine and Craig Naivar
Those are names that have "high interest" in the coaching vacancy. I don't think that feeling is reciprocated by Hickey.
The timing sucks but I think it's better than wasting another year with a beaten down Coker. Also the salary should be pretty competitive for CUSA.

He has all the makings of a great coach. I think he would do well at UNT but I hope you guys pass on him for a bigger name. We want him at UTSA badly.

Nutsack is not our superbowl. Not even close. The 10k in attendance for that game solidifies that. We care nothing about y'all. That is truth. You are better off getting an OOC series with Texas State and calling that your rival.
We do have a long term series with Texas State coming up, actually. We don't want UNT as a rival. Who would? SMU sure doesn't.
All I'm saying is UNT clearly sees us as one, or at the very least has a really strong hatred for us. You can tell they really wanted that game and have reverted back to losing games by 30+ points since then.

UNT treated our game like their Super Bowl and played over their heads, obviously. Kinda sucks since UNT would've probably gone down as the worst FBS team of all-time otherwise. Worth it if it saves Ricky V's job though.

It feels turrible right now but I'll end up having the last laugh if it ends up being the difference in Ricky V keeping his job.
We lost our Super Bowl in week 1. Congrats on your "Super Bowl" loss.
Nah. Nobody here wants to be associated with a dumpster fire like UNT. Texas State provides the local rivalry, La Tech provides the conference rivalry. Maybe UNT can start a rivalry with Portland St.?

1. It wasn't up to NFL standards pretty much immediately after being built. You know why there aren't any cup holders there? They had to cram seats in to meet the minimum and claim 65K capacity.
2. NCAA standards are basically a field and some bleachers.
3. You polled them? We talking anecdotally? They did just fund a renovation for it so at least one guy took a look around and said "Could use some sprucing up"
4. Architecturally? Like what do you mean? It was the first LEED certified stadium. It has distinctive Eagle wings. What do you mean?
5. New stadium is newer? Hoooleeyyy shnizzballs lets organize an investigation! Nothing is as it seems! - I haven't been to UH's so I can't say whether it's "better" but I have been to SMU's and no, it isn't better. Texas State's looks nice from the outside but so does DKR and that is an awful stadium to be in.
I give your post a C- for poorly sourced and poorly backed arguments. Also name-calling. Smh
1. Ok, even if that were the case they met NFL standards initially, right?
2. You mean like Apogee? Kinda funny that no cup holders is supposed to be a strike for the Alamodome when Apogee is mostly bleachers. At the end of the day y'all are using a little $78 mill facility to try to put down a $300+ mill facility. It's hilarious.
3. I read articles and watch broadcasts? But by that same token did your UNT boy wonder poll people in order to come to the conclusion that everyone thinks the Alamodome is a "shithole"? The renovations are to try to get major events (aside from the Alamo Bowl) there. I guess you can say it isn't an elite facility any more like it was when it was hosting events like the Final Four but it's still far from a "shithole".
4. I'm talking aesthetically. The "wing" that looks more like an M looks dumb in my humble opinion. For everything else, it's like any other newer G5 stadium that's in that same price range.
5. This is what's hilarious about you guys and Apogee, your stadium is $78 mill but you'll measure it up against just about anybody else's even if it's a fraction of the price. It's delusional. You get what you pay for. I went to UH's for the season opener last season and obviously it's much nicer than Apogee (which I also went to in 2013). That's not a knock against Apogee they just spent more and received a better stadium. Not sure why that's such a difficult concept to understand. I've been to Texas State's as well and I'd say it's nicer too.
Being overly critical of something you don't have but wish and dream that you did.
Isn't there a word for that?
I see your attendance numbers are down and you are losing. And doing it without facilities. Welcome to your future.
Ya, I know we suck. But that's because we have an AD that we are having a hard time getting rid of. He will be gone soon enough.
You suck because you have built nothing and done nothing. Ever.
F'n Craphole. I hate this yearly week of football because of these dilusional people.
No, you suck because you're UNT. Sucking is what you're historically good at.
We're a young team full of freshman and sophomores. Most of which also had offers from UNT, we'll be fine.
correcamino doesn't seem his usual energetic self. What's the matter cc? Another losing season got you feeling a little down?
You have me on 1 post per day bro. How am I supposed to help you generate traffic by sprucing up the hatred that way?
But to answer your question yes losing sucks. I haven't had years and years of losing football (and hopefully I never do) to numb me like UNT fans have.

No, it was Fouts when it got posted then got changed to Apogee. Instead of removing it, they just changed it. You got me, though.
And, obviously it has. Because it's the only option in San Antonio. There is no other choice. It's still a shithole that gets blasted every Alamo Bowl by every team and the media.
Yeah, sure it was. You're just incompetent and always find a way to put your own foot in your mouth.
When are you going to grow up and stop talking out of your @ss? ffs it's a stadium that was created with the intention of housing an NFL team. Sure that didn't pan out and it's no longer up to NFL standards, but it more than meets NCAAF standards. Media and visitors rarely say anything bad about it unless it's someone like you that's butthurt because UTSA owns their team.
Of course it can host events that Apogee can't. It's a dome stupid! BTW: How much of the revenue from these events is nUTSAck receiving? Zero.
Gil Brandt on Apogee:
"It's a Taj Mahal. It is an unbelievable facility. I think I've been to every college stadium that's ever been built and this is really, really something special. I came up here a week ago, to just see it, and the attention to detail is unbelievable. We have a female official out there tonight. They have two official locker rooms. So that they have one for the male officials and one for the female officials. That's why I say everything has been thought out."
Some old Dallas guy was polite and over complimented your little $78 mill college stadium. Whoop tee do. What'd you expect him to say something negative about it?
There's really nothing special or unique about it. Obviously all the P5s in Texas have nicer on-campus stadiums. UH's is newer and nicer. Texas State's is much nicer after the renovations they made. It's a toss-up between SMU's stadium and Apogee.

Oh, the list that had Fouts in it originally and then confused? I compared them because the Alamodome is a black eye on your city.
Oh yeah, they changed it from Fouts to Apogee in the 24 hrs since you posted that link.
Claims he has never seen Apogee on a worst stadiums list, proceeds to post a link with Apogee at #8, 6 spots above the stadium he is trying to put down.
The Alamodome has hosted events Apogee could only dream of hosting. Far from a black eye. Apogee might be a gem in the HS ranks, right up there with Allen High School's stadium, but in the college world there's absolutely nothing special about it.

lol wut
We have the youngest team in all of FBS. This was a rebuilding year all along, even if last season had gone as planned. The young guys look like they have a good future they just need to get some hair on their balls first. If we are starting seasons 1-6 once all these underclassmen become upperclassmen...then I'll start getting worried about becoming another UNT. Until then I like our future.
BTW regarding the Alamodome...I get that Apogee is UNT's and the Dome isn't UTSA's, but aside from that why in the world would y'all compare a little $78 mill facility to a $300+ mill one that is about to get $50 mill in renovations? Seems pretty dumb.
Never seen Apogee on a "worst stadium" list. However...

The Alamodome is nothing but a Red McCombs fleece on the city, and an eyesore. Bad for concerts, useless for NFL, too big for CFB, super cavernous making it a non-factor for homefield, in dire need of renovations (Super Pit style press box? WTF?), horrific scoreboards, hideous design on the outside, poor parking, poor location...it's also *incredibly* far from campus, which is why no students go to the UTSA games.Hey genius, click on that first link and take a look at #8.

I'm gonna be honest, it kills me to say yes, but yes. Both teams will probably s $!k and get nothing in recruiting for it. I can choose to watch an unfolding +20 lose season or join the peace corp. I think it's a 1.800 #.
lol no
Not trying to rub salt on the wound of UNT fans but UTSA hasn't looked anywhere near as bad as UNT. UTEP was in a dogfight with Incarnate Word today so UNT might have a shot to win that game.

Bogie is awesome but a decent amount of the credit also needs to be given to the uptempo offense. The no huddle resulted in 95 plays and the coaches also gave Bogie the ability to adjust at the line depending on what looks he saw from the defense. Pretty similar to what he did at Carthage if I'm not mistaken.
Not sure how well his talent and smarts would be utilized in the conservative, cookie cutter offense Mac like to employ though. I think the offensive philosophy at UNT is a bigger problem than the QBs themselves.

Oh and as far as the black boxed flat screen television look alike academic building on nUTSAck's campus... I mentioned that building bc it is by far the biggest building on y'all's community college campus.
GMG
smh poor guy
Keep living in your warped little world. Also lol at the idea that we seek validation from a program that has a winning season every decade or two. No thanks, if I ever need validation I'll seek it from someone else.

Yeah, I do know about the facilities at nUTSAck. I have walked around the campus last summer. And, it sucked. Some snake headed mermaid posted up as a monument of meaning at a traffic circle right in the middle of campus. A black generic looking building that looks like an old boxed flat screen television. I've seen it and it sucked. As far as academics goes...really...coming from a nUTSAck fan? gtfo.
Yeah, picking some of the oldest buildings on campus and using them to form your opinion of the campus isn't childish. I'm sure I could find some some older buildings at UNT too if I ever wanted to act like a prissy 5 year old. There's been a bunch of buildings, dorms and athletic facilities that have gone up in just the last decade alone...try basing your opinion on those.

A peer athletic program?..no I am not accepting that because it simply isn't factual. There is nothing to accept. They are a school that happens to be in the same state and conference as us that plays athletics in the same conference as us. That is what I will accept. Go to their campus, athletic facilities and even academic buildings and come back on here and call them our "peer." Bottom line is you wouldn't.
lol like you know anything about the facilities/buildings UTSA has
Elitism from a university with mediocre academics and athletics is hilarious.
It's nothing to do with them beating us. That's irrelevant. What is relevant is tying your name to a program and/or university that has no weight to its brand or program. I would much rather have a La Tech or even a Southern Miss as a rival than nUTSAck. People don't care about utsa. I am not saying people care about us, but if I am given the option to choose a rival that would be more beneficial to us it sure wouldn't be utsa. A rival doesn't always have to be geographically aligned. Tennessee and Florida are huge rivals and they are quite far from each other. I would personally like to see LaTech as our rival. We are actually closer to them anyways.You think a respectable program like La Tech wants to be associated with your mediocrity? Go over to the CUSA board and ask who they'd like to start a rivalry with you. Hint: it's not you.

Well, I don't mean to nitpick, but wouldn't a more accurate view of the class be either an average of the various rating systems or sticking to one that is deemed the most reliable?
247 has a composite score of all recruiting services. That's the one I prefer. Offers is also key IMO...Ive seen three star players that only had one offer and two stars with multiple offers.

It's a matter of perspective. Many of us want to send our 4-8 coach on his way for losing twice to lowly UTSA.. They want to build a statue of their 4-8 coach for winning his 2nd North Texas Bowl.
F them. San Antonio has turned into a full fledge infestation.
Their football program sucks balls and their "school" sucks it.They will be pitiful for years to come.
I don't think either one of you could come off as bigger sore losers even if you tried.
Relax, there weren't even any bowl/conference implications. It was a fun game, I was expecting a boring low scoring game.

The question was why are they sucking it up. I don't care why they are just if they are.
QB play. We are pretty much in the same position you guys were with Williams/Greer a couple weeks ago.
A RS senior has been starting and been horrible for the most part. We are all calling for the true freshman who has outplayed him in games where they both saw action. He was Rutherford's and Goree's QB at Carthage.
Oklahoma State
Blake Bogenschutz 8/14 82 5.9 0 1 23.8
Tucker Carter 7/15 51 3.4 0 0 10.8
New Mexico
Blake Bogenschutz 10/16 169 10.6 0 1 --Tucker Carter 4/8 60 7.5 0 1 --UTSA is learning the hard way regarding scheduling above their head to appease their fans. Those same 'fans' are now jumping ship and ridiculing the team based on their record. Just read their fan board for confirmation. Have not paid enough attention to know if they are banged up or if teams are just starting to figure them out. Losing Soza was obviously a big blow. He made their team go last year. They may really start feeling the pain in the next few years when they are finishing all the 2 for 1 P5 agreements they signed.
They are entering a critical stage. They really need some wins to establish their foundation or their shine may start to wear off. Looking forward to the game this season. Leaning toward making the trip in November.
Don't make things up. This completely blindsided us after the first two games of the season, so we are understandably disappointed but nobody is jumping ship. Has nothing to do with OOC scheduling either IMO.

UTSA isn't really paying Arizona to come to the Dome. Technically they are but that is off-set by what they paid us to go to Tucson in '13 and what they will pay for us to go back in '15. People are so opposed to 2 for 1s but they are better than 1 for nones imo.
Not sure why other sports are being discussed but UTSA has very solid track and baseball programs.

UTSA's next head coach will be..............Frank Wilson (LSU)
in Mean Green Football
Posted
Yes, recruiting to UTSA is different than recruiting to LSU. Then again will Litrell have the same level of athletes at UNT that he had at UNC? Probably not but that doesn't stop y'all from getting excited.
The other finalist was a DC at Ok St and GMG scoffed that potential hire. Chances are, even if Wilson had coordinator experience GMG would've found another way to scoff him. Don't understand the insecurity.
