Definitely not football related and definitely not true. The divorce rate is at a 50 year *low*. Nice judgements though.

Just wondering, when some of you got dumped or broke up did you still wish them well and buy them gifts. Can't understand why some of you seem to be so giddy for undergrads that leave us.

“Wow, things are looking up.” ”That’s very impressive.”   I’m sorry, but what is so good about the Murphy twins leaving UNT?

If you follow both brothers on Twitter they're getting a ton of P5 offers... Not just Penn State.

I don’t and won’t. Good for them. They decided to leave. At that point, I don’t care.

I don’t get the point of posting this topic.  I wish all the athletes who contributed here well.  It would be different if we were coming off a great season with depth behind them that was already challenging them for the starting position.  Can we find something else to talk about or leave this in topics already posted?

Not good, but as a G5 we better get use to it. They not leaving cause of Seth or Bennett. They are leaving to play at a school like Penn State. Wouldn’t be surprised if they move back to linebacker.

If the Murphy's want to buy me dinner, take me dancing, maybe take that extra 10% on the last kiss of the night... Then catfish me, sure.

Otherwise I will not blame someone for taking a promotion. You'd do it at your job.

If she dumped me for a younger Brad Pitt, maybe I would realize that it wasn’t my fault.

Leaving UNT? Nothing.

As young men and their futures? Everything.

Beyond the green glasses my friend

So they had no future staying at UNT?  Maybe getting a degree at UNT?  I don’t know…..maybe I’m old fashioned and will never get used to the portal, players transferring at will.  Did I mention that I don’t like it one bit?

The Portal and NIL are intentional measures enacted by the elite to not just separate the haves from the have nots but to insure never again will a so called G5 ever be able to rise to or compete at their level. 

For this reason along with poor decision making from the AD concerning an incompetent head coach, I’m out.

How do you know?   What about the commitment they signed to UNT?   Leaving says a lot of things.

Keep in mind we are living in the age of post modernization. A man’s word, handshake or even a contract have little or no value in today’s world.

Its all about self, what’s best for me.

You old timers are so weird. This is happening all the time outside the NCAA too in the business world. If I get a better opportunity somewhere, its about furthering myself. Leaving doesn't say anything about them. If Seth Littrell got a better offer, he'd do what's best for his family, not what's best for North Texas. Think about your current role in your job- wouldn't you go somewhere else for higher pay/exposure/opportunity?

Also I'd rather get the chance to play for a National Championship that for a 6-6 team that lost in a made up bowl to a MAC team. I don't fault them at all.

I'm sure you've never done something that was in the best interest for you or your family.


It's a frustrating time for G5 fans. I think some rule changes are necessary or you're going to see many programs question the point of being part of a minor league system. At least lower league football clubs (the European kind) get comped when their breakout players get loaned, sold to larger teams. I surely hope that's not where we're heading with CFB.

Especially when it's obvious the coach is no longer hungry and is content with the way things are instead of trying to bring in top tier talent, exactly as their father spoke up about.

      Doesn't seem new, but unlimited transfers

      Tim Pernetti's (new AAC Commissioner) remarks regarding exploring more corporate involvement seems interesting and innovative, sort of. Getting some heavy-hitter businesses on board with their big advertising/public-relations budgets. They get to splash their logos all over the AAC venues, ceremonies, uniforms, etc in exchange for some NIL type moola. I don't know, it all just feels weird and uncomfortable to this old fat guy.

      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.
