I was kind of iffy about him too but seems like he can do about anything he sets his sights on. Certainly understands the importance of transfers. https://www.espn.com/espn/otl/story/_/id/24263583/the-football-team-won-league-lost-opponents

Ha ha. This is the sort of little thing that NT has never been able to wrap their mind around. Problem is, there are about a thousand of such little things.

The run game did not go anywhere. When you can't consistently throw downfield with accuracy, defending your run game becomes very easy.

I don't know why some of you are so down on Charlotte. They have many of the same headwinds going against them that NT does. I expect they will increase the budget for their hire. As for NT, we have been treading the waters of assured mediocrity for too long. I'd rather the university move on and take a good shot at greatness. Take a successful coach from some lesser program, if there is such a thing.

I don't necessarily think they are the best, but they are awesome.

I don't know if I've ever seen a team throw 2 second-half pick 6s. But then again I figure NT has probably done it before at some point.

They're jealous of the one in Abilene.

Sadly I don’t think this sort of ranking abyss or the horrendous drubbings make any impression on NT leadership at all. It’s all a nonevent for them.

The university and its leadership is basically shameless. We'd have to carry out a takeover for there to be change.

I thought we're supposed to watch CUSA on the gas pumps??

Appalachian leadership simply does not tolerate not being able to compete, so they always get people in place who ensure they can compete. It does not take away from the growth of their university; in fact it has helped their growth alot.

OMG smu. Big 10 programs are paying golfers more. You should thank your lucky stars for us so you can feel good about yourself. I still find something intentional in our sports ineptitude. I would be happy to never play your stink factory again. Go hang out with liberty.

Let’s put things in perspective. My neighbor who went to Carolina had never heard of North Texas. She also had never heard of SMU.

I was at the W&M game. Beautiful night, great crowd and atmosphere, but no Charlotte defense and no prepared and capable backup QB. Very familiar circumstances.

Yes, if he does it by himself.

smu could be so much more than a caricature of a university, yet they keep letting the worst of themselves lead the rest right down the bunghole. We are so similar in this general regard, but for completely different reasons. What a fantastic relationship.

I figured somehow or another SMU and Memphis would get away from us before long. This could do it for them.

When 32 of the colleges go and make an NFL minor league, whatever smu is able to buy won't be worth a Hill of beans. Now you're a caricature; sad.

What a disappointment it would be to find that the university leadership's vision of what a major university should be is based mostly on what some people volunteer to pay for. Would be so much better for leadership to dream and then go and sell their ideas to constituencies. A giant major university with a baseball team is not even a very lofty dream. Makes you wonder what they ARE dreaming about. But then we shouln't have to wonder, should we?

I will be very surprised if Virginia wins the next game cause NT took it out of them today. I sure wish the Green could have pulled this out. 💔

The teams have played before but it was Benford time. This time much different. Once in a lifetime! Person divided!! NIT record for low total points in a game in serious jeopardy!!! Love it!!!!

... you mean for the NIT?

OMG with the baseball. Yes, it is a travesty this giant university can't seem to support a little ol' baseball team. In fact it can and should, AND have a modern basketball facility. If we can't have both, then change should come.

HUGE win on the road!! This may be my favorite NT sports team ever. What a tremendous accomplishment!

You misunderstood. Supporters of Texas would like for us to be the anonymous ‘UNT’. They don’t want there to be a University of NORTH Texas. It is the same thing as when they didn’t want the university name change in the 80s. I’m not talking about general fans. I’m talking about people in the state government. The fact people go along with it is similar to how people in Raleigh have managed to get supporters of Appalachian to refer to themselves as the ridiculous ‘App State’. Supporters of Carolina have to love it. So whenever there is a print reference to our school it should be ‘North Texas’ not ‘UNT’ and you should only say ‘North Texas’ not ‘UNT’ and no print should occur attached to our logo.
