Uh...actually people with strong immune systems are most at-risk. This virus kills via a cytokine storm (overreaction of the body's immune system) which explains its unusually severe nature and the concentrated age profile of its victims. The strong immune systems of young adults ravage the body, whereas the weaker immune systems of children and middle-aged adults cause fewer deaths. My family is taking this flu VERY seriously.

If you are talented, work hard and succeed you get PAID. Nothing could be more fair than that. I wish UNT could pay her more.

None of this would have happened if drugs were legal.

Hey Lonnie, Has Bill Parcells ever considered you for one of his NFL coaching staffs? ... didn't think so. Maybe, just maybe, Todd Dodge knows a little bit more about coaching football than you.

Najeh Davenport broke into a girl's apartment and pooped in her closet. I hope Coker recruits people like that to play at UTSA.

I have lived in Minnesota. High school football there is a joke. They say there are no black people in Minnesota when Prince is on tour. Hard to find skill position athletes there. The best athletes in the state are wrestlers. As funny as it sounds, you can get to Minnesota from Denton without exiting I-35. It is a 12 hour drive straight north. Pretty smart of Minnesota to recruit Texas athletes. Minnesota is a great option for lower level Big 12 recruits who aren't good enough for Texas, OU or A&M but still want to play in front of large crowds.

I guarantee you that there are players on steroids at every D1 football program in the country. Who cares?

Breaking news here... athletes use steroids. I also hear they drink water and breathe air.

Who cares what community college classes the losingest quarterback in UNT history is taking? What are Riley Dodge's thoughts now that he has been cast in a leading role?

SMU was as bad as we were last year, don't you think they would be holding on to these guys if they could play?

If they aren't good enough to play at SMU they aren't good enough to play at UNT.

He is plenty big for a DE in the Sun Belt and his speed would be a much bigger weapon at DE than at LB. This guy is a DE.

DFW is the most overrecruited area in the country. There is nothing about this area that makes the athletes extra special. Yes, there is good high school football here and maybe a DFW Class 5A player is more prepared for D1 than a 2A player from the middle of nowhere, but that advantage disappears once the 2A guy gets in a college program. Why battle with every school in the country for DFW's scrubs? At some point, when are program improves its prestige, we may be able to grab some elite DFW recruits, but we aren't there yet. Hot Toddy just has to do his homework and find players were no one else is looking.

Who cares if Riley is 5'9 1/2? The Sun Belt isn't the NFC East. You think Chase Daniel is any taller than Riley? He's not and he had a hell of a college career in a conference wildly superior to the Belt.

Somebody's been reading Malcolm Gladwell...

The UNT football program would trade places with any of those schools right now.

Did Riley have a scholly to Texas? Is Texas in the running for the national title every year? You are disillusioned if you think UNT was the only D1 school to offer Riley a scholly as a QB. There were Big 12 schools offering Riley as a QB. But Riley loved the opportunity at UNT enough to bypass all those other options and come here.

You guys need to get on board with Riley Dodge. He loved UNT enough to pass on a chance to win a national championship at Texas to come here. Vizza loved UNT so much he walked away from our starting QB position to go play intramural football and chant with male cheerleaders down in College Station. Riley is OUR GUY. His dad was big enough to play big-time college football and Riley is too. He's not playing left tackle. Riley is probably the most-decorated recruit to ever sign with us. He is big time and he is ours. He should be the face of the franchise and we will worship him like we worshipped Johnny Quinn and Patrick Cobbs. Expect BIG THINGS from Riley.

Pertile, Fred and Corey?

DISAGREE about the U of Phoenix. It is a great option for non-traditional students who are seeking to improve their lives.

The Insall/Vizza comparison is great, Vito! Good blog. Vito is not out to screw North Texas! It is his job to write the most interesting stories with what he has to work with. Also, what no one understands is that it is in Brett's best interest for North Texas to be successful because that makes his beat relevant and makes his stories more in demand and allows him to showcase his skills so that he can move on to a bigger and better beat a la Tim MacMahon or Richard Durrett before him. If Vito is truly conspiring against UNT then he would be sabotaging his own career because if UNT football continues its one-win seasons then nobody is going to be reading his stuff and The Dallas Morning News will have no demand for his articles and he won't have a chance to impress those editors. P.S. Vizza was below average. I am very excited to see what Riley Dodge can do.

Casey Printers was the starter at TCU and transferred his senior year to a I-AA team in FLA to try and showcase his skills for the NFL. He was a back-up in the NFL last I heard. Who knows if he is still there.

BRING ON THE RILEY DODGE ERA!!! Am I the only one excited about this? Vizza was horrible last year. Riley can only be better.

That would not make sense. However, in a world of equality, the work force would be populated by the correct percentage of WILLING and QUALIFIED blacks.

30% of assistant college football coaches are black. Yet only 5% of head college football coaches are black. If, as I contend, black and white coaches possess an equal amount of coaching talent within their respective populations, then the percentage of black head coaches would be comparable to the percentage of black assistant coaches. This is not the case, which points towards a sizable pool of black coaches who possess the talent to be a head coach, but have not been given the opportunity. It also points to a sizable pool of white head coaches who, based on talent, should not be head coaches (Todd Dodge anyone?). Why not give one of these black coaches who, based on talent alone, should already be a head coach? Attack my logic. P.S. - Charlie: "Here's a confession: I'm in love with a man. What? I'm in love with a man... a man named God. Does that make me gay? Am I gay for God? You betcha."
