Could it be that Littrell has blossomed late in his career at UNT?  What if he leads us to victory for the rest of the games?  How should we handle this sensitive situation?

I don't sense a change in the winds. UNT won last two games. Two games they should have won. Winning is not easy for this team lead by SL. Anybody who watches this team should should be able to see that easily.

By all means if you want to continue supporting a staff that never seems to beat good teams go ahead. Why can some fans not comprehend that you can support North Texas and not be satisfied with what is happening in football. So yes, do we want North Texas to do well? Absolutely. It does not mean we have to act like we are close to being good.  If you don't want to acknowledge that we are irrelevant with no indication we will ever get better under Seth then go ahead.

We're talking about a coach who is 3-6.

If you are talking about winning every remaining game, beating a previously undefeated and ranked UTSA, and winning a bowl game, people will probably be willing to rethink things.

We’re going to beat UTSA.

Paranoia strikes deep.

Into your mind it will creep.

Here is the deal, we’ve been decimated by injuries and have been forced to throw some real youngsters into the heat of battle, even moving receivers to defensive back at times. The record looks bad, sure, but we are starting to show more discipline and that is a sign that these freshman are maturing.

And about our record, on the surface it looks bad but if you look deeper, we have one loss to a bad team. That was to 2-7 LaTech where we spotted them 21 points before Seth yanked Ruder and we almost came back to win (ultimately losing 24-17). Our second worst loss was to a 4-5 SEC school in Mizzou. The other 4 teams that beat us are all currently bowl eligible with a combined record of 26-11. We aren’t as bad as we seem. Let’s see how the rest of this season shakes out.

When do we get to start beating good teams? Year 10?

Well we are in year 1 of our first bona fide DC but our qb coach is a joke. If we could pick up a bona fide OC/qb coach like Harrell again and have zero or minimal injuries, we could win conference next season under Littrell, I really believe that.

Bodie Reeder and Clint Bowen were epic disasters for Seth and have delayed his advancement tremendously. He can win here but it just depends on the circumstances upcoming. I do not know if another coach that we’d be willing and able to hire could come in and have a better record that Seth could with the roster he is building.

Reeder and Bowen were epic disasters hired by SL. He will have trouble winning if he can’t hire good coaches.

      The Athletic on DFW Football recruiting

      Yep. About the only thing NT and Denton have successfully partnered on. Missed my point. The NIL was created to allow players to earn money off of their "Name, Image and Likeness". Schools, smuT comes to mind, decided to bend the rules and create collectives to essentially pay kids a salary for being on the roster. Had nothing at all to do with NIL. The NCAA got scared of being sued and drop the ball and set this up with zero oversight. The change, to me, is this. I support UNT because it is my school. I liked watching kids like Scott Hall, Johnny Quinn, Patrick Cobbs, etc. sign with NT, fall in love with playing here, work hard, develop over their four years, honor them on Senior Day and become Hall of Famers. That is gone. Today's kids are loyal to the money and don't give a damn about NT.

      Because that takes legwork and forward thinking. Let's not be silly. I started paying attention to UNT in 2011. Got plugged in around 2012, and started to pay very closer attention in late 12/ early 2013. The athletic department has done nothing but prove its a good ole boy system filled with self serving people from top to bottom. I said it a few days ago, but the University has to look into the hiring processes and the hiring of North Texas people must be the next step. Put a lighter on the do nothing leeches and get people in there that care more about the success of North Texas than they do about the success of themselves.

      I believe this, but it would take the city getting involved and the AD giving two shits about the future of this program. All they do is ask the alumni to give and give more. What is my ROI? Watching Edwards and Nolan show up for a year and then move along? I would rather give that money to a scholarship my family established at North Texas to provide for current students and young men and women that are preparing for their future. UNT has wasted opportunity after opportunity to move up. They own valuable I35 real estate that millions of vehicles pass daily. Any naming rights sold for those facilities? Memphis has the FedEx Forum. Why not the Peterbilt Super Pit with signage along the roof of the building?

      Its a different story when you are comparing blue blood programs. Alabama can recruit anyone from anywhere. Memphis can't (and still won't despite a fairly impressive NIL commitment).

      UTSA absolutely does not have a better location. SA is not a great area for HS football talent and they do not have deep NIL pockets. They are maximizing their value and holding the programs to a high standard. Good for them. But if you poll the vast majority of G5 coaches/administrators on which program has a better foundation I'd argue most would lean towards UNT.
