"Henigan, who has started since his true freshman season, will be the rare quarterback to start four years at one university. Silverfield said other schools tried to pluck Henigan from his roster last season, but after discussion, it was clear to both sides that nothing needed to change.

"We were very candid with one another, very transparent like him and I have always been," Silverfield said. "I think loyalty is getting harder to find in college football."

Speaking of loyalty and continuity: Silverfield is in his ninth year at Memphis, having joined Mike Norvell's staff in 2016 as an offensive line coach."

Refreshing to see a talented young college athlete who is obviously more than a Pavlovian jock drooling after every dollar that drifts by.

Must not have tried that hard.

So the fact that he went to another school is evidence that we didn’t “try that hard” to get him?

Usually we see some fanfare about big recruits we go after, especially QBs. So yeah, I don't think they tried that hard.

Pretty bold assumption.

Maybe he went to our last of 4 straight New Orleans bowls, and watched them whip out arses, with Danny wimprine at qb.  
 

or maybe he’s a good friend of Darrel Dickey, and he hated how it ended here, but loved seeing him revitalize his career at Memphis.

or he thought he there was no way he was going to beat out number 1 pick Jason Bean before he transferred.  
 

we will never know. 
 

Also, we should be more upset that we didn’t go after Kaiden Salters when he got in trouble at Tenn. he’s from the metroplex, btw.

How did a thread about Memphis' playoff chances turn into a Seth Littrell hate thread lol

Have to ask @peanuts104  Seems to have an unhealthy obsession with SL hate.

      2025 UNT FB Schedule Honest Predictions

      If that prediction is on target Morris want beable to sit down. I just don't see how you can predict a G5 team until they have played a couple of games in this environment.

      Who Will Create Some Fireworks This Year?

      https://dentonrc.com/sports/colleges/mean_green/who-will-create-some-fireworks-this-season-for-unt-here-are-7-top-candidates/article_530d450b-ed12-4f66-a3ab-d45a0328b0f0.html Which players on the North Texas roster are the most likely to create some fireworks of their own this fall? The Mean Green have featured one of the nation’s prolific offenses during Eric Morris’ first two seasons as the program’s coach. UNT averaged 33.5 points per game in 2024 on its way to a 6-7 finish following a loss to Texas State in the First Responder Bowl. The Mean Green’s success was tied in part to quarterback Chandler Morris, who entered the transfer portal before UNT’s bowl game and landed at Virginia. Eric Morris will have to replace not only his starting quarterback but also his top three receivers and his leading rusher. The good news is UNT has a host of promising players set to return as well as some incoming recruits who look like they can make an impact. Here are six who could make the explosive — fireworks-like — plays UNT is looking for this fall.

      Summer Work Laying the Foundation for Robinson's Debut Campaign

      https://dentonrc.com/unt-laying-solid-foundation-in-mens-basketball-heading-into-daniyal-robinsons-debut-campaign/article_7afe8854-9236-462f-b254-ceb3914e9021.html It’s no surprise that foundation is on the defensive end. Cleveland State was far and away the best team on that end of the floor in the Horizon League while allowing 66.5 points per game last season. Every other team in the conference gave up at least 71.0. UNT ranked third nationally last season while holding opponents to 60.1 points per game. The reason for the Vikings’ success was evident in the way Robinson’s first UNT team honed in on the defensive end during practice this week. “That’s the way we’ve been,” Daniyal Robinson said. “We want defense to be our foundation and then move forward. The guys are embracing that.” Robinson praised his staff for helping a new batch of players adapt to his approach. “Our coaches do a great job of teaching and breaking down film with these guys,” Robinson said. “They have done a great job this summer on both sides of the ball.
