North Texas Portal Entry Thread
cousin oliver replied to TheReal_jayD's topic in Mean Green Football
I am sorry, but I feel like Coach Morris and the staff owe us an explanation on this one. Why would Rogers choose to leave such a prolific offense? What happened behind the scenes? I think some type of explanation is warranted as it leaves us in an extremely precarious position. -
Does Rodgers have any legitimate offers?

Deeply saddening to learn of this tonight. -
From Arizona State to Kentucky, and everywhere in between, FBS head coaches are pounding the table for everyone from boosters to average fans to find ways to get involved in the NIL efforts. Funding NIL has quickly become both a top priority and absolute necessity in an effort to keep up with the tops programs in college football. Maybe there's an outside-the-box solution out there that could get everyone more involved in NIL efforts? That's where this idea from Bill Busch, a veteran former college coach turned permanent radio host on 93.7 The Ticket, could come in to "make it fair, and make it fun," Busch has a background where he's coached at Nebraska during three different stints as well as stops at Ohio State, Wisconsin, Rutgers, Utah, Utah State, and New Mexico State so he brings an interesting perspective of a veteran college coach to the conversation. link: https://footballscoop.com/news/this-wild-nil-idea-involving-live-in-game-donations-might-just-work

An Alabama state representative has filed a bill that would allow high school athletes to make money off of their image. The legislation, HB25, sponsored by Rep. Jeremy Gray, D-Opelika, would be a name, image and likeness (NIL) bill for high school athletes. The bill is limited to the athlete and does not allow the use of “marks, including a school logo, school name, school mascot, or trademarked logo or acronym of an athletic association,” alongside some other restrictions. Alabama has had a state name, image and likeness law since 2021, one that was revised in 2022 after it was deemed stricter than the NCAA’s later regulations. The NCAA allows college athletes are allowed to profit from their image, name and likeness under NCAA NIL, according to NCSA Recruiting, ranging from the use of merchandise to autographs to running camps and clinics. According to The Hill, at least 30 states and Washington, D.C. have legislation that allows high school students to make money off of their image. link: https://www.al.com/news/2023/12/alabama-lawmaker-files-bill-allowing-nil-money-for-high-school-athletes.html

North Texas Portal Entry Thread
cousin oliver replied to TheReal_jayD's topic in Mean Green Football
I agree but a lot of the fun of following college sports was watching players progress and develop in your program. I don't think we are the only ones belly aching about this either. You have lower and mid P5's losing a lot of their key players as well. This may be great for the players, and I am all for them being compensated but it is terrible for the sport they play. If anyone should be punished it should be the coaches and University administrators who have pocketed billions off the backs of the players. Let them share their TV revenue which goes into the billions with the players instead of the poor fans. -
Happy Birthday!

A very sad day for North Texas. -
Looks like Dixon did play.
-
Buggs with 6 boards is impressive.

I don't think you are crazy at all. We got the offense thing figured out. We just need to shore up the defense and should be ok.
-
Sounds like a reasonable, safe hire post Jimbo contract.
-
Has Smallwood played for us or is this just more of a decision on his part to get more PT? Honestly no idea.

I concur. The defense hasn’t been as much to blame as the personnel -

Is the game day shuttle still a thing?
cousin oliver replied to brooks91's topic in Mean Green Football
We road it last game and there wasn’t a problem. Here is a link: https://transportation.unt.edu/news.html Home Football Game Day bus service at UNT Home football games at UNT always bring excitment from fans -- and traffic. In order to best serve our students who live in Victory Hall or who need to get to the DATCU Stadium area, the weekend Mean Green Plus (Path A) bus will have a modified route on the Saturdays of each game day. Click on the image at right for the regular Mean Green Plus bus schedule, which will skip the #5 stop at Victory Hall starting 3 hours before the game begins until 1 hour after it ends. During this time, its last stop will be at the Fouts Transfer station in Lot 20. From there, students can ride their bikes or walk across the parking lot and across the pedestrian bridge to the Stadium/Victory Hall areas. A limited ADA shuttle will operate during the game between the Fouts Transfer station and DATCU Stadium. E-ride will also be in service that evening by calling 940-565-3014. Click here for the details on e-Ride. We apologize for the inconvenience. Having this restriction prevents the bus from getting stuck in traffic, which would greatly delay its schedule. A full list of UNT bus routes and the service calendar for the year can be found on the DCTA website here.- 1 reply
