Not a fan of bailing on Seth ……but if we do, what about Rich Rod?  He is the OC at LA Monroe right now. 

I like the offense he runs (not doing so much yet at LaMo), BUT 5 major NCAA violations at Michigan and a sexual harassment/hostile work environment lawsuit at Arizona makes it a NO for me.

It’s been a while since his kind of offense was dominating at WVA.  I mean, LAMo could only muster 12pts against FCS Jackson St. Neon Deions.

We can do better.

I was a huge RichRod fan.  His offense is spectacular when running on all cylinders.  But I wonder if it was moreso about Steve Slaton and Patrick White, like SL was with Harrell/Fine.  It just hasn't been the same since they graduated.

I definitely feel like UNT is a place Lebby would be interested in. He'd get to come back to Texas and lead a program that's more committed to athletics than just every school in our conference.

I like to hear why we should keep SL.  I was trying to give him every break in the book but after our performance this year that shipped sailed for me.  We need new blood in the system because I think SL has run his course here.

I've mentioned this in another thread, but since Mac Engel seems (in his own way) to agree with me, here it is again. NORTH TEXAS NEEDS TO HIRE THE NEXT UP AND COMING MATT RHULE. OUR CULTURE NEEDS TO BE FIXED JUST AS MUCH AS BAYLORS.

So how much longer are you willing to give him.  I am with you to a point, I hate to change coaches again but damn man this dude has been here 6 years now!

If we are hiring a new coach:

Not sure who it would be, but a celebrity middle-ager hire would hasten our progress, slow down portal transfers & enhance those from other schools who might come our way.

With our venues North Texas is hardly what I’d call a difficult sale.

 ••• App.State has a very nice end zone facility that would look nice at Apogee & at a (winning) UNT football program.

So frustrating.  Early SL felt like we knew we had sprinkling of talent but, for the most part, Fine and opportunistic defenses were saving us.  We had some players that were playing over their heads.  Gave me so much hope for us.  Now I feel like the talent pool is rich, but player development has fallen off the chart and our teams seem completely unprepared this year.

We are smack in the middle of realignment moves.  I can't believe how bad the timing is for us.

We are staring at a third consecutive four win season.. at best. how is this bailing on seth? at what point would it be safe to move on.

I would welcome 4 wins at this point, I see only 2 wins. 

UTEP and Rice both won this weekend. 

FIU might be only win the team gets the rest of the season, that's assuming Mizzou and Liberty don't curb stomp the rest of the fire out of the team in the next 3 weeks.

I believe something like this is exactly why the AD has plans to move our scoreboard. It would be great if we could build another club-like level in the south endzone.

Feldman at the athletic did a write up about hot seats around the league. Says Littrell is in a hot seat, and UNT is a desirable mid major job. Just some interesting thoughts.

"Some mid-major jobs are viewed as very desirable.  This is one of them."
This is PERCEPTION.  And that perception is based on a lot of factors (compensation being a huge part of it).
That same PERCEPTION is around the Athletics department as a whole, which is why NT would be a nice addition to either MWC or AAC.

Our Culture Needs to be fixed? Did I miss something in the News? What about our culture needs to be fixed other than finding a coach that can cultivate talent and win games against above .500 teams?

I believe an Apogee Stadium end zone facility/Athletic Center will be so nice.  I’d bet blueprints have already been drawn or will be soon.  This project is already in Wren Baker’s creative mind after listening to a recent video.

Below is an IPhone close-up pic I took of App. States end zone facility 2 weeks ago.

      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.
