  1. Seth Littrell Sighting

    You always have to wonder if the way he left North Texas is the reason he is not been a head coach since. It most likely put up a red flag to many athletic directors.

    I guess I'm confused here.   
    If you mean "the way he left North Texas" to be: a middling, uninspired, .500 coach who has difficulty getting his teams fired up for big games... then yes, I agree.
    If you mean "the way he left North Texas" to be what some here are insinuating: that he was a bitter/spiteful coward who ran off with cash and didn't express gratitude to fans who were calling for his head, & those who fired him... then no, I don't agree, because I don't think that is entirely true.

    Maybe not, but his actions on the way out were ridiculous even if it was in reaction to having to work with RV. Of course, he has never been a HC again so maybe he realized we were his only shot. Seth will be a HC again and a successful one at that. 

    He's going to have to do some soul searching first, and make some changes to his demeanor if he's going to lead an entire program again.   He certainly CAN.  I just don't know if he WILL.

    When you leave without making a single public statement to anybody, not even one thanking the players or expressing any gratitude for a seven-year opportunity that sends you out of town as a multimillionaire, you're bitter.

    Seth Littrell got big support in Denton. Only one coach in the conference had a higher salary. There was even a bowl game created for his team by an alumnus in 2021 so the Mean Green wouldn't miss a bowl at 6-6.

    People are going to say Littrell didn't owe us any comment after being fired. That is true. It is also true he was as bitter as a dank IPA.

    I know I’d be so very chipper & ready to speak highly of my former employer immediately after being fired.  Obviously you agree!  </sarcasm>

    There isn't an FBS program that would accept a ceiling of .500 with losses in almost every bowl game, conference championship game and big OOC game.

    I KNOW you’ve been around here long enough to pine for .500 ball like the rest of us were during Dodgeball.

    You wanna know why we don’t accept sub-.500 ball now?   Seth Littrell’s early success.  Plain & simple.  When he could no longer meet those standards, he needed to go.  That doesn’t make him “bitter”.

  5. New RB -Zach Evans from Minn.

    All true.

    However, I think Cobbs has shown he likes to play multiple RBs every game, so I don't think the comments are necessarily about one being better or trying to steal any thunder. Having both of these transfers lining up in green in the backfield next year is exciting.

    Oh, definitely not saying having both dudes aren't a plus.   I'm just saying this thread is for Zach Evans.   Just more of an observation.

    A stellar pickup, if he sees the field consistently.   

    He separated from the LSU three times during his career for different reasons.  

    I think Coach Gilbert will be a little more important than Coach Cobbs with Bradford.  This is his guy. 

    I think having a man who was a guiding light for him while in HS back in his life will be a good thing for all involved (bad for opposing defenses though).

  8. Are we not signing a transfer QB?

    Coach Morris knows ball. QB ball to be specific. I am just not worried about QB with Morris as our head coach.

    I used to believe this much more strongly than I do now... between the fumbling of Rogers at the beginning of the year, to failing to even talk to Ken Seals, and now each day that passes with Stone Earle as our QB... doubt is starting to creep in.

    They just got the 4 star Lake Dallas WR to sign to Memphis going to have some talent! Think Purdue cooled off on him not sure why..

    That's wild!   I got to see Henry a couple times this year.  He can disappear sometimes, but when it's crunch time, dude shows up with big play after big play.   Memphis got a really nice player.

    Did yall see that the Silly Goose Jyaire Shorter committed to Memphis?

    So silly.

    I think he really chapped Coach Morris when he left.   Morris brought his transfer up subtly in interviews several times.   He probably knew he wasn't welcomed back.    Sad/petty behavior on both sides, as we could certainly use him.

    Being established and have previous experience are two different things, IMO. Just a difference in opinion I guess. Back to the original issue, if Cash McCollum is here in the spring, I see no reason to believe he can't commit for QB1 if nobody else is brought in.

    I cant compute trying to compare the resumes of Mr. Rogers last year VS Mr. McCollum this year... but here we are.  Downgrading one of them severely, and inflating another.

    I do agree with your last sentence though.   And, IMO, that will result in a disaster of a year.

    So you predicted the guy with 2400 yards, 15 tds 7 interceptions would have 3400 yards 29 tds to 5 interceptions in 10 games after one offseason? He had never started at the FBS level prior to ULM. He was not a multi-year FBS starter with crazy numbers. He had one season prior to UNT.

    There was a ton of excitement around Rogers when he signed... because he had previous FBS level experience.  Most here were drooling over his comp%.   I don't believe I had 

    I was only pointing out that yes, in fact, Rogers WAS indeed an "established FBS QB" when he signed, when you said he did not.

    Jumping the gun here a little, aren't we fellas?   
    You just compared this dude to 2 of the top 5 All-time greatest LBs ever to wear Green.   
    200w.gif?cid=6c09b952y5nzrbustab436rzx6c

    If he could even come in and be more like Brandon Garner, or heck, even Will Wright, he'd be a HUGE SUCCESS.   Let's start there instead.
