Boom! I remember when Mattress Mac gave us a Million and we all about lost our minds. Times sure have changed.

My gut tells me he is not leaving this year. My reasoning is no more reliable than a mailman's in Detroit Michigan but here goes: As he moved up the coaching ladder over the years he had no kids or very young kids. Now his kids are in school and moving them becomes much harder on them. My guess is he wants his next move to be his last move. I dont think Texas Tech is a last move. I fully expect UNT to get his pay up to 2 million this year. More importantly I expect UNT to greatly increase the asst. pool. I think its a total beating for a head coach when he loses multiple assistants every year. Being able to keep his assistants in place is important. His stock is rising fast right where he is at. He has no reason to leave if he can spring board from UNT to an elite position. Texas Tech and similar schools are not elite positions. This is the best looking recruiting class we have had since Joe Greene. I would think part of the reason for such a good class is coaches promising they will not be leaving in the very near future. Sure coaches are not exactly well known for being truthful but I actually look at Littrell as someone that says what he means. I fully believe that SL will not be here in 5 years but this will not be the year he leaves. Take it to the bank! lol

what is your take on Baseball and apple pie?

if someone loses their dog you give a Ray.

Imagine my surprise when I got in the car yesterday and Sports Radio 610 was talking Mean Green football in Houston. It did my heart some good.

Regardless of who's decision it was I think it's bush league for our President to take part in an article that's sole purpose is to assign credit for a good hire. Smastrek I am a huge fan of yours but this is beneath you.

We are only going to talk ourselves in circles until our heads hurt. As fans the only things we can control that might make any difference is to donate money and show up. Higher pay and a full stadium will give a coach something to think about. Other than that don't worry about what you can't control. If Seth leaves he will leave things better than he found them and this will be a very desired job among other up and coming coaches.

The vast majority of people that say NTSU do it on purpose. Including that announcer.

@flyonthewall I wonder if you have an opinion on the subject of Seth Littrell’s retention?

He gives a great interview. While I doubt he would have indicated otherwise I do think our chances of retaining Littrell might be better than we think.

But I said "kinda"!

I’m sorry but I have been a North Texas fan for too long and I just don’t feel good about all of this positive press leading into this game. Football Gods whatever we did to you over the years I truly hope you have forgiven us and this is not just some mean trick.

Journalism majors can correct me here but I think the general rule of beat writer is to treat the reader as if they are not familiar with the subject or history. Vito always provides some context. Our record against the SEC is real and relevant to the situation. It displays the magnitude of the win or the lack of consequence of a loss. That said, I have always felt he has an axe to grind when he uses the "Darrel R. Dickey" practice field. Hey none of us are perfect! haha

I tend to agree about Houston but I was shocked how bad their turnout was for a home game against Arizona. I will chalk it up to scheduling a mid-day game in 95 degree heat. Still I wonder if not getting into the Big 12 has knocked the bloom off for many of their fans.

zero chance I wait longer than 30 minutes before I use UBER.

I have to give them credit. They have one of the more level-headed fan boards I have seen.

Sorry gentlemen but I placed an emotional hedge on this one.

Based on depth and previous experience I really don't expect us to win this game but I do hate that CSU stole some of the magic if we do pull out a win.

I hate to think Kenneth Copeland is sitting in Apogee right now.

Texas!!!

Funny enough my beer of choice is Coors Original and his is Coors light but we both bleed green. Carry on

Would said friend happen to have a mini fridge full of cold coors light?

for those of us that cut the cord. Can I find it anywhere on the WWW?

I was thinking the same thing. Him and Littrell are cut from the same cloth.

Strange the different perspectives people have had on this subject. I thought the crowd noise was fairly tame. Which makes sense when you consider the game was never in doubt by halftime.
