Dumb question I'm sure, but what's a DBO?

We will go Top 25 this season. You can bank it!

True, but the question is what multiple? Moreover, coaches also place a value on quality of life, especially if that new offer is not a significant multiple of what they already make. If SL makes 3 million at UNT and gets offered 4 million...Ya, that a million a year, but he also has to relocate his family, pull kids out-of-school, leave friends behind, etc....Is going from 3 to 4 million really a lifestyle changer? Probably not. However, if he makes 1 million and offered 4 million. Ya, that multiple is probably a lifestyle changer and more likely to leave. Sure, it's possible that someone might come in with the 7 million offer (Alabama, Texas, etc.), and that's a done deal, but I don't think this is really what we are talking about here.

Good post Harry. I was going to post a similar post. It seems everyone asks if we can afford to keep him. My simple question is, "Can we afford not to keep him?" The crazy media exposure we've received, especially this season (that trick play alone was equivalent to $500,000 in advertising), and football attendance has significantly improved, and will continue to improve with more winning seasons. Boise kept their coach for many, many years despite frequent Top 25 rankings....They paid their coach, if I recall, 3 million per year...That was enough to keep the vultures away..... Combine that with, at least what I read in an article, Seth really like it here, and even has close friends that are also major (big time $$$) donors that live here too.

Good luck finding that out. Litrell is tight lipped on injuries unless done for the season.

Prior to the LA Tech game we were in the low to mid thirties with some top 25 votes. Had we won that game we'd gone top 25. Now with that loss, we have little to no chance of a ranking even if we go undefeated. They'll rank you with a weak schedule but you have to win all your games.

One of our better defensive outings I can recall against a non powderfuff oppenent in the Seth Litrell era. Only seven freaken points allowed.

We flew in for the game so we were going no matter what... But I can understand why the poor turn out. An hour before the game it was raining so hard there was minor flooding in denton. As we pulled into park for the game, lightening went off and just before we left the car an emergency warning went on the radio for tornado activity. Crazy stuff and though very disappointed with turn out, I completely understand. But, yes, this team deserves better.

After a horrible first half, the offensive line slowly but surely took over the game. Big boy football come forth quarter from our line.

I really hope the weather holds up even if drenched. About to board a plane right now to attend the game tomorrow.

I was thinking the same thing last night and had to explain to my brother and father why I was rooting steadfastly for TexTech.

I wonder too if USM will be wearing an alternate helmet since ours is also black?

I agree! I love these. Not sure how some don't like these. Our uniforms and the various combos are awesome!

30 UNT 27 USM Really looking forward to the game and a win as my wife and I travel to Denton for this one! Really excited! Hopefully I return home in the same way.

Nice!

Thanks damn link won't work. Error message

The game is on Facebook and stadium but I can't find it. Any links to the game?

I wonder too if other name teams saw us win the CBI and then dominate in Europe and not want any of that?

We'd better win the CUSA conference outright because that schedule will not get us any at-large bids to the NCAA tourney....and will be a very low seeding even if win CUSA conference.

Man, that home schedule with questionable opponents is rough...Road schedule a little better with some quality opponents. Home schedule is: Angelo State, Texas A&M-Commerce, Maryland Eastern Shore, Maine, St. Peters, UTA, and Arkansas Pine Bluff....Not exactly going to fire-up the Mean Green base......disappointing.... But, of course, I'll watch/listen to each game no matter what!

Also on fubotv. Just do seven day trial and cancel

Meant to post this sooner, but better late than never. My wife bought me two tickets to the SMU game along with flights, hotel, etc. for a surprise father's day gift. I can't tell you how excited I was to attend this game! Unfortunately, the week of the game, both my grandparents had medical complications and passed on within five days of one another. The funerals were the weekend of the SMU game. I sent an email to the UNT ticket office to see if I could exchange my tickets for another game given the circumstances; quite frankly, I did not expect them to do this because this situation had nothing to do with them. To my great surprise, my mobile phone rang the next morning, and a nice gentleman from the UNT ticket office extended UNT's condolences for our losses, and asked me what game we wanted to attend. I told him the Southern Miss game, and he said no problem. I had printable tickets in my email that day!! What a class act these guys are!! Put a smile on my face during a very difficult time for our family and makes me even happier to support our athletics! GO MEAN GREEN! Beat LaTech!!

Mine has been fantastic. Almost always is.

I told my parents that the SEC "fix" was in when they called the no-holding holding penalty that reversed our touchdown. Then shortly afterward, they ruled "stands" on our interception that appeared to be a non-interception... Then I said, maybe it's not a "fix." Just poor calls...
