Gotta stink when your last name begins with a "B" and you still lose in alphabetical order.

Portland Traumatic Stress Disorder?

Also, our starting QB taking a knee instead of picking the snap up off the ground when the closest guy was being blocked 5 yards away was the icing on top imo.

**feel free to file this under "kneejerk overeaction" come the end of the year (maybe end of the week)**

Picking who will go under center first by alphabetical order may be the dumbest thing I've ever heard of at North Texas and that's not a short list. Under a coach who is supposed to be an offensive mind, if you can't either coach one of these guys up to be the starter or one of them doesn't take the job (nevermind that that scenario alone is not confidence-inducing) THAN AT LEAST PICK ONE!!!

I never thought I'd think this much less say this but I'm worried that GH was the actual brains for the offense (along with Mason) and SL can't run the offense. Not sure how we have brought in a plethora of QBs and we are using ALPHABETICAL ORDER to choose a starter. 

Prediction- the D is better than we thought and the O isn't. 

4-7

Overreaction complete

If we're more worried about mind games with Houston Baptist than we are setting the foundation for this season, that tells me enough to know my expectations for the year should probably be very, very low. 

If we had a starter, we'd have a starter. Right now, we don't. And we don't. 

I'm confident this will work out at least as well as it has every other time we've taken the same approach under any coach we've had in the past 20 years. 

I agree that we don’t have a starter but I think in this case it is ok and that we shouldn’t name one until Friday before SMUt. No reason to. Let SMUt also prepare for two styles. They will have game tape on both and will be able to see the difference (assuming their is one). Or have Bean run like crazy against HBU and then come out gun slinging against the Phonies. Whatevers.
Doesn’t bother me at all at this point to not be locked in. Honestly I don’t much care if they do before conference play. I mean, we all mostly assumed a 1-3 (well now 1-2) start anyway so let’s figure out who the real starter is with trial by fire. The 2014 example shows the best practice qb may not be the best game qb anyway.

They aren’t picking the starter by alphabetical order, only the listing on the depth chart.

also Seth has successfully run several offenses at schools that are not traditional powerhouses, so I am hesitant to embrace your overreaction.

And y'all think my hot takes are bad.

Geez...when Harrell was here people were bitchin about his second half let downs. 

So with no Spring practice, no QB separating themselves from the others in fall practice some are wanting Seth to name a starting QB against a FCS team that should be a warm up to the rest of the season.....hummmmm.

      The Athletic on DFW Football recruiting

      We have complained for years about being left in the dark. The Mean Green Club was promised quarterly meetings that never took place, now there is little to no coverage of the spring practices, player movement is constant so the days of watching a last second scholarship player developing in to a Hall of Fame performer are long gone ala Johnny Quinn, there is little to no fan engagement, etc... It just keeps getting worse and without a push to really involve the fans, I foresee a bleak future. They, the AD, has to create excitement around the team/program or Apogee will just become a waste of money, the new basketball arena will never happen and future adds like baseball will just be an idea that came too late. The days of the G5's are on their way out. It will be whittled down to the top 40 or 50 programs as D1. We might as well go back to our D1AA days and play at the FCS level. I am just about done with sports from a financial commitment position. The greed has ruined it for me. Their is zero loyalty towards the program by the players. It is all about them and how much money they can cram in their pockets and it appears our basketball coach encourages the lack of loyalty. I will watch on television, but that's about it, much like pro sports have become. I have no interest in attending a Cowboys' game live once the prices became ridiculous, same with the Mav's and Rangers' in that stupid new ballpark that was a waste of money. I had arrived at a point where I was only willing to invest in watching North Texas live, but the current situation has ruined that as well. The future of all of college sports is a disaster if some type of control isn't put in place. It is ridiculous and very sad. Guess I will end up spending my money on golf, fine food and drink, drugs, etc. and become a more interesting person.

      SB at Memphis (4/19-21/24)

      Opportunity to beat up on one of the worst teams in the country in Memphis (5-34, 1-17). Really can't let them steal one like UTSA did a few weeks ago. This could help solidify a top two seed (top two seeds would only need to win two games in the conference tournament to win the title) if Tulsa takes 2 of 3 from Charlotte this weekend. SCHOOL CONF CPCT. OVERALL PCT. HOME AWAY NEUTRAL THIS WEEKEND Florida Atlantic 13-5 .722 33-12 .733 19-6 11-6 3-0 vs. UTSA North Texas 12-6 .667 25-19 .568 15-8 7-9 3-2 at Memphis Charlotte 12-6 .667 26-16 .619 12-8 9-7 5-1 vs. Tulsa Tulsa 12-6 .667 27-15 .643 13-3 9-8 5-4 at Charlotte UAB 11-7 .611 20-22 .476 13-5 2-13 5-4 at Wichita State Wichita State 10-8 .556 19-18 .514 5-6 9-8 5-4 vs. UAB South Florida 9-9 .500 30-16 .652 23-11 7-5 0-0 at East Carolina East Carolina 7-11 .389 30-15 .667 21-7 5-8 4-0 vs. South Florida UTSA 3-15 .167 12-34 .261 3-10 2-14 7-10 at Florida Atlantic Memphis 1-17 .056 5-34 .128 4-16 1-13 0-5 vs. North Texas

      Doesn't seem new, but unlimited transfers

      I can't blame them, the system in place allows them to profit and to move freely. We may not like it, but it's the system. I'm hoping schools taking over the collectives, it's already happening for reasons I stated above, will usher in contracts and buy outs for players. We've opened Pandora's box so we aren't going back to amateur sports, the best we can get out of it is payment on our investments.
