    Playing in a bowl game is my minimum expectation. 
    Breaking into the Top 25 is my realistic hope for this program. 

    You realize we haven't been in the Top 25 since 1959, right? At that point it was actually the Top 20. And in our 111 seasons of football, we have played in 13 Bowl Games. I feel like some of y'all have unrealistic expectations. We can build all the athletic facilities we can and hire all the coaches we want, but this is still North Texas, folks.

    I think we’ve beaten them there since then.

    We won In Irving at Texas Stadium in 1977. We won in Denton in 1990, 2006, 2014, and 2018. The 7-0 Victory in 1933 is the one and only time we’ve ever won at their place.

  3. We should have hired Darrell Dickey in December when we had the chance. He would have been a PERFECT fit in Denton for his second stint here. Guess who did hire him? Georgia. Yes, the team that is now ranked #1 in the country. Obviously the folks in charge in Athens hold him in a higher regard that most of the people on this site. We should have welcomed him back to Denton when we had the chance. But instead we hired a coach that is going to be right up there with Dodge in terms of Suckage.

    Realignment is not over.

    So, who looks more attractive? 
    Texas State? Rice? UTSA? Oh, or North Texas? 

    None of those programs have the facilities or have made the financial commitments to athletics that North Texas has.

    Yes, offering a good education, room, board and stipends is not enough.  No wonder so many athletes have a hard time when they hit the real world, were few care about your past sports exploits. 

    NT and every other school have to recruit in this world, but when does it become too much.  Being that NT and most schools athletics are heavily supported by students fees, there has to be limits at some point. 

    I’m sure there is room in the budget to pay for a some shirts and a few stickers. Besides having these young and desirable players seen wearing green- even if they don’t end up in Denton, is not a bad thing.
