A great honor to host ARMY in Denton on Veteran's Day weekend too. And what a great recruiting day for the US Army playing in the state of Texas, with its huge pool of potential recruits.

And let's not forget that Wren left the DFW metroplex to live in West Virginia. Not sure why you would intentionally do that to yourself.

For those of you that majored in music or played in the marching band at NT, what the hell was up with the Memphis band that played the entire game? Were those actual songs they were playing? It sounded like just horn blowing. What an annoying atmosphere it sounded like on TV. Even my wife commented about how annoying it sounded there. If you were there, would love to hear about it. The Memphis band was playing during our onside kick too.

Give Memphis some credit here too. Their RB (Anderson Jr.) is tough to bring down and 4 TDs is hard to deny. Anderson Jr. would likely play even at Georgia or Texas. He is really good. Xs & Os on defense are not my thing. But it looks like it could be a personnel issue on our defense. It's not like we have a Booger Kennedy and Brad Kassel out there. But this is the best NT offense that I have seen since I started watching games in 1986. I sure hope there are a few guys coming off injury to boost the talent level a bit on defense. NT looks small out there.

Morris seemed to struggle with passing until the rain stopped. Just an observation. Fancher was likely more experienced on the grass and also in the rain. I mean it is south Florida. It surely rains a lot down there. Still can't believe NT won this game the way our defense played.

Never played football myself, but does it make sense that NT's offense will improve over time now because they are no longer practicing against the 3-3-5 defense that couldn't stop the run nor put pressure on the QB? Again, I never played football, so I am just speculating.

Agree. Private universities sometimes believe they serve as economic/social status enforcers with their "admission standards". UNT is funded by the state mostly and can't turn away large numbers of students. The taxpayers in Texas wouldn't stand for that. UNT's mission is to serve Texas as a whole. Not just a select few students who hit the jackpot with their parent's economic status. And yes, UT Austin has the same mission as UNT. UT also is arguably the best university in Texas including Rice. But UT still must accept all Texas students who graduate in the top 10% from a Texas H.S.

Coach Morris seemed a bit nervous but owned up to the embarrassing loss to TTU. He even had countermeasure plans to stop this from happening again, but it sure seems NT's injuries are a factor. Injury and lack of personal were asked about 3 separate times. The players did a fine job in the press conference.

Timing is everything in life. Eric Morris could not possibly have worse timing with his career meltdown today. He must be absolutely stunned about now. This loss does tremendous damage to the University.

Can someone please write a very thorough and informative ChatGPT prompt about the history of NT Football coaching hires and ask AI to give a psychological profile of the UNT administration. I think AI will mention, risk adverse, nepotism, favoritism, self-preservation, lack of accountability etc..

I was at the 1990 OU UNT game (40-2). OU was ranked but NT only gave up 40 points despite being 1-AA.

For the first time in UNT's history, there needs to finally be accountability. UNT athletics needs to cease being an easy paycheck for coaches, directors and administrators. Maybe it is a Denton culture thing, but accountability is just missing at the University.

I would grill Eric Morris relentlessly at the coaches show. Make him answer why he is so woefully unprepared. Did UNT even have practice this week?

Damn. NTs offense gives up a huge TD. Truely unbelievable. 3 plays...17 point swing. Wow!

Good grief. Middles School kick teams make 26-yard kicks. Historically NTs kick teams have been very strong. What the heck. Freshman snapper?
