I wonder if he'd convert to WR. We've seen an increasing number of vertically challenged QBs in the NFL these past few years though so maybe he can stay at QB. I think he'll get looks regardless.
Haven’t seen this mentioned, but once again……
We started the season out pretty well. Got some local and national attention, to the point we were a trendy pick. “Tech better watch out!” Reece Davis on ESPN Game Day picked us as his “superdog”. We were starting to turn a corner regarding perception.
And not only do we get beat, we got absolutely destroyed on national TV. Outclassed, out coached, out played and embarrassed.
We were taking a few steps forward only to get hit in the face ONCE AGAIN and get launched back to what many think is our rightful place.
How many people paying attention to our game vs TTech didn’t even bother to look at the schedule to see our next games much less make plans to show up. This probably happened about halfway through the 2nd quarter of that game.
We are in a situation where we have no room for error. When you’re in this situation, no amount of marketing can overcome getting embarrassed like we were in Lubbock. We had our chance. Blew it.
so this comment from the article:
“He’s held up his end of the bargain.”
depends on the lens we use and the standard we apply. if we use the standard of “holy crap it’s a miracle we’re 4-1 and we never do this” then Yes, he’s held up his end of the bargain. And yes. This start is the exception not the norm. But if we want the casual fans to show up, that standard won’t work. So if we use the standard of “we need to be ranked or pushing the top 25 and knocking on the door of the playoff. Getting national attention getting national credibility” which WILL get the casual fan to show up, then Eric Morris’s performance in Lubbock means he did NOT hold up his end of the bargain.
The coach at UNT, whoever it is, cannot have it both ways.
Yes, please. Why do we always relegate UNT to thinking we just have to go after someone else’s failure? We need to find a Lance Leipold, in my opinion. Find a proven winner at a lower level.
