  1. Just seeing this...I believe this is called recruiting momentum. A sight to greatly see. Let's steer that momentum to tbe DL now. Welcome to UNT
  2. Listening to him talk, no way he was.
  3. I like this a lot. I think he can be an all CUSA type player in as little 2 years. His recruiting makes no sense as in only Tech, us and Mcneese after him. I suspect him to roll in a handful more offers and if we can get him to stick that'd be fantastic. Welcome to UNT
  4. No, he does...UNT needs to revoke his media pass and let him get his stories from the parking lot.
  5. Brett taking a shot at UNT and its athletics??? Naaahhh, say it ain't so.
  6. Oh man...meanwhile down the road they've bagged like 6 this week.
  7. At this point...lolzzzz What else is there to do except laugh
  8. Yeah, I kind of nodded in agreement at that. I still can't get over that play that you and @MGNation92 have in y'all's signature. It was literally an unbelievable play that did not at the time and has not even now received enough regional or national recognition. It's an absolute STUD play by both QB and QR, especially QB. I mean Fine laid that ball in literally a "spot" on a random mark on the field and it was an absolute perfect throw by just repetition and memory. I don't think that play in its given time will be out done by Fine. I hope it is, but I have a feeling this play will lay down in UNT football lore, regardless of opponent. To Note: I had walked up to from my seats on row 1 section 112 to the middle rail section between the end zone and wing seating. As we were walking up UNT were eating TO's with UTSA's O on the field and it got to 4th and 3, I believe, with a little over a minute left and we called our last TO. I told my wife, the beautiful @Lydia Gooding, that I had to watch what happens. So she agreed to hold up with me there...Then the punt went down to the 2 yard line and I was like WTH. But, hey hun, let's see what happens. And then we hit that big heave to Lawrence on the field boundary. Then magic happened. I was giving high fives AND hugs to people I have never seen in my life. It was, regardless of the shitty opponent, the best UNT experience I have experienced thus. PS; The Army game and Rice 2013 game were great as well. My wife's favorite moment to date has been the win over Army in 2017, because according to her, their fans were "A-holes".
  9. IW and Liberty would be a competitive game...honestly. I am not worried about either. Losing to either would be detrimental to all momentum created and should expire an exposed position group job status.
  10. And that's why I would sign up for those wins right now, to trade to lose to SoMiss and LaTech. It would create a big time buzz around the program and around Denton. And we need those kind of wins. Lose the given games and cap it off with a bowl WIN to create some momentum going into 2019.
  11. ESPN trying to squeeze the "little guy" yet again. Can't wait for them to finally roll over.
  12. Very in-depth look at the conference. I like the input.
  13. The record would still level out to 8-4, but with wins over Ark and SMU. Or go 8-4, probably not make the conf champ game while still losing to SMU and Ark. I can set aside a division "championship" for locked in wins against SMU, Ark, and nutsack. But that's just me.
  14. And with this defense, I would accept 8-4 as a big picture regular season. If we can avoid splitting those 4 pivotal games and steal one I would call this a really good season. If we beat Arky and SMU and drop one like a SoMiss that I would suspect us winning while still being able to go 3-1 in those 4, I would call this a great season. I would trade losses to SoMiss, LaTech, and UAB for wins vs Ark, SMU, and UTSA. If I could be guaranteed those right now I would take them. I am conceding the division for monumental/pivotal wins.
  15. I mean....At least one won't talk....#amirite
  16. I'm slightly worried. We have a good kicker that has had his confidence shaken while at Arkansas. Our offense has, at times, sputtered down close to the goal line so he will have plenty of chances to get that confidence boosted with chip shots. But yeah, T. Moore was big time for this program. Outside of Fine, he was team MVP in my opinion. Jeff Wilson was the engine that kept the team going. When he was out, you saw a drastically different team. 0-12 Rice kind of lingered around with us until the 4th Q with Wilson out and of course we saw the FAU 2.0 and Troy games. It's why people on this forum were legitimately asking if Fine could hit 5K yards this season, he may have to for us to be competitive. I just hope that the staff can instill some confidence in Smith and Co. and that they have grown and developed a bit going into this season.
