The timing of it all has to make you wonder if this isn't the very reason they hired Chad.
I don't think we have to wonder at all. This is exactly why it happened.

This is the problem running NIL thru the university that has been proposed. Can you imagine the cost for paying title IX athletes and also paying athletes in non generating revenue sports.
If NIL was run through the universities, wouldn’t the $ amounts also have to become public? If so, what a S-storm that will be.

But didn't each of those 3 guys come here via the portal? So we do love it or not?

UNT Football has conditioned me to have a short-term memory. it's healthier that way.

so...now we love the transfer portal?
we ended the season with a 3K-1K-1K and lost it all to the portal. So no, we do not love the portal.
what we want, is to use the portal to add to the 3-1-1. it's a lot easier to add to than to replace.
then, and only then, would we love the portal.

Can we add ‘seasons left to play’ to each of the transfers?
Thanks for putting this together. My head has been spinning trying to keep up with all of these.

I don’t have any doubt that this staff knows what they need and want at QB. If UTSA and UNT are not making him their top priority, both staffs obviously feel there are better options out there.
Totally agree. Sight unseen, I trust we’ll be fine at QB and look forward to seeing who suits up.

And about 15-20 kids more already committed and about a dozen of kids coming on campus this week.
Literally everyone in the country is having to deal with the portal right now. There is already 3000 kids in the portal. And we havent played the first bowl game. There will be almost 6000 kids in when all is said and done. There are only a little over 11,000 availlible fbs schollys.
Bookmarked for a year from now.

To answer the original question… If I’m the coach and any player wanting to come back makes my team better, I’m welcoming you back with open arms.
The Coach looks at it from a much different perspective than a fan, for sure.
I think most coaches would agree with your stance.
I think most fans would not.-

Exactly a year ago today.
North Texas didn’t have a head coach
North Texas had no Recruiting Class
No Chandler Rogers or Ethan Miner on North Texas roster
Ayo had never rushed for 1000 yards in a season
Maclin had never had over 400 yards receiving in a season
Landon Sides was enrolled in HS
Moral of story is there is a lot of time between now and August 2024.
I really hate this take, honestly.
What is wrong with us fans wanting to build? Convincing someone to join a 3k-1k-1k is a heckuva lot easier than assembling another 3-1-1.
Remind me again of when this program has seen sustained success? As the roster continues to exit stage left, it gets increasingly more difficult to achieve that level that everyone wants.

This is what I found. Not sure how accurate
Schools are also able to reduce/eliminate your scholarship for the next academic term once you enter the transfer portal. All of this is at the discretion of the coach and athletic program.
I would think this to be correct, but man, the optics could be less than desirable.

Ohio State lost their QB as did other big programs.
You think they are confident with their QB2?
Do you think we are?
Comparing our losses to P5 program losses is silly.

Well looking like another rebuild year fellas.
Let’s just call this what it is. We don’t have rebuild years. We are a rebuild program.

Ya’ll realize that all of our best players this season were guys we got from the transfer portal.
The portal shall taketh away, but it will certainly also giveth.
While true, holding on to top talent while acquiring more is what is going to elevate us to a top program.
if the roster is a constant revolving door, we’ll continue to hover in mediocrity.
I don’t know about you, but I’m done with .500 ball.

Yeah lets make kids stay at places they don't want to be while coaches can bounce around whenever and wherever they choose.
How in the world did kids ever survive the playing football in college for free 20 years ago. Them must have been some tough suns a bitches to put up with such hard times.

A lot of people are system players, they function well in one system but some time when they change to a new system that are not as effective. Air Raid is a system offense. That is how Leach keep it going. He lose a good player and would fill in right behind him with another.
And sometimes they are what they are. There is a reason why these players didn't begin their careers at the P5 schools. They aren't P5 quality.
If you want to be productive and compete, know your lane, stay in your lane.

SMU would pay Rogers just to spite us!
SMU doesn’t think about us like we do them. They couldn’t care less about punishing us.

Crazy. Now what?

We can talk about missed opportunities and no defense all night long. But the reality is that there is a talent gap here that we simply can’t compete with and as long as NIL exists for programs with the resources to excel, that likely won’t change.
We wanted to ‘conference up’ and play with the big boys. Be careful what you wish for.
