I saw the beginnings of this when McCarney was hired. I noticed that former Letterman were making more of a presence in and around the program. 

It's about time. I've had encounters with former players at games and when I not only remembered them, but their number as well, they were all shocked. They had no expectation of being remembered. I found that very sad......and symptomatic of our dysfunctional system.

If you can encourage Letterman to return and participate in the program more, then they not only bring themselves back, but their extended families as well. 

What's next? The revival of the Geezles?

UNT has completely lost all contact with their Lettermen over the course of the last decade.  I do know some of the previous players who have donated/given to the program over the last couple years and they mentioned that it is all give give give to the program with nothing in return.  The Lettermen of the program can and will whole heartedly support this program again if they feel wanted.   Most of the them absolutely love the program and would jump at the opportunity to be part of it again in a support function.

That is really disheartening to hear, but hopefully this is something that will be corrected.

I wouldn't say completely.  Witnesses have posted on this board of Dunbar, Trice and Cobbs sightings.  There are probably a lot more, though not nearly as much as we would like.

I would love to tap into more Dickey era players.  Guys like Kassell, Spencer, Neon Don, Buckles....The last era of winning for UNT football.  Those guys are probably playing Texas Hold'm on Wednesday nights with each other, shooting whiskey and chuckling at anyone who says it's too hard to win at UNT.

      SWAC leading rebounder Brian Myles to announce where he's going

      I HAVE to assume that his offer got pulled and became illegitimate. It looks awkward having our logo next to those others. I either thought he was just stringing along the other schools to create BS hype for himself OR our offer was no longer good and he was trying to add legitimacy to himself with our logo up there on his graphic. Either way, see ya.

      That's the attitude of someone resigned to defeat. UNT is in a better location and I'm certain has deeper pockets than UTSA. You don't see UTSA using excuses of why they can't be successful despite some pretty clear limitations. Allowing the past to determine your future is silly to me. Find the right mix of people who capitalize on the strengths and mitigate the weaknesses. UTSA did it. Don't tell me UNT can't.

      Please understand that our geographic location has never changed. Also understand that our recruiting has always lagged, even behind a few schools you mention. A lot of our facilities have been better or on par to our peers for over a decade. And there has not been a net positive. We spent millions of dollars in a pretty nice IPF. What has that gotten us from a recruiting or performance standpoint? Now, add in the portal and NIL. Psh. I love your optimism for us. It's weird. it's not really warranted, but I like it.

      The only thing that is constant is change. I can understand yearning for the days of yesteryear but why not take advantage of the current system? Access to the playoff is there. Proximity to quality recruiting and local transfers via the portal is there. The programs that should be terrified are UTEP, LA Tech, Ark State, Wyoming, etc. where you are geographically isolated and objectively poor. UNT is neither of those things at the G5 level.
