****OFFICIAL ECU vs UNT IN-GAME DISCUSSION***
GrandGreen replied to Coach Andy Mac's topic in Mean Green Football
You realize that your first sentence makes no sense. You're attempting I guess; to imply posters are chicken because they don't identify themselves more fully when they express an emoji rating. Despite, the obvious; that feature has not been activated. You are also very wrong, very few college message boards identify posters that use emoji ratings. The reason that it is not done, is that instead of discussing the topic; more comments would deteriorate into personal debates. Save the bandwidth, keep the discourse to sports. -
Why Support this Program?….Seriously!?
GrandGreen replied to Meangreen Fight's topic in Mean Green Football
I wonder about fans who have to announce they are not coming to the games. I doubt anyone cares, if I go to a game or not and I expect the same situation applies to you. -
***OFFICIAL UNT vs. UTSA IN-GAME DISCUSSION***
GrandGreen replied to Harry's topic in Mean Green Football
It is obvious that no one is stopping you from voicing your displeasure with the program. I also wonder where you get anyone is happy with the season. As for as the resources, there is no way that you know that to be true, unless you know their NIL numbers and their real budget. Hint, what is reported can be made to look about anyway you want by manipulating the numbers. I am truly regretful that NT is likely not going to be invited to the Rose Bowl and will be relegated to a subpar bowl and opponent. -
***OFFICIAL UNT vs. UTSA IN-GAME DISCUSSION***
GrandGreen replied to Harry's topic in Mean Green Football
It usually works that way. Lose to good teams and beat bad ones. I hope you stick with the team, but if it is too much torture, be like many others and give up. As a long mostly suffering fan, over fifty years, NT is my team. I didn't go to UT or A&M and couldn't care less about them and other the perennial powers. As far as your coach record comparison, Dodge was a bargain basement hire and didn't have a chance. McCarney was the first football hc that was hired with a competitive compensation package. Unfortunately, he had serious health issues and was a failure. Littrell and Morris were upgrades but certainly not proven D1 hc winners. I have not entirely given up on Morris, although the last game was a horrible coaching job. The defensive coordinator basically was fired by his defensive players. They are either/and/or not very talented or were poorly coached. Ether way the Defensive Coordinator is responsible. NT has two very winnable games left. Two wins and a good showing in any bowl would make this year at least a limited success. -
***OFFICIAL UNT vs. UTSA IN-GAME DISCUSSION***
GrandGreen replied to Harry's topic in Mean Green Football
Not a bad fan, but you are wrong. The extra weeks of practice are valuable and failure to go to a bowl would make a disastrous year even worse. Unless it is a massive loss, the exposure is still valuable. -

Not remotely true. -

Their offenses are not that close. Agree with your second point, however Littrell was much better. -

You really think that paying more assures anything? It increases the odds that the hires will be better, but it is no guarantee that a superior coach is hired. -

GrandGreen replied to Harry's topic in Mean Green Football
Explain this, the two coaches are not similar at all. Other than both can't or couldn't win any important game. -
This class should continue, Burton's climb to a championship level team. Does anyone know how many current seniors are going to play another year? I would particularly like to see Lamkin back. I have lost track of the Covid effect.

***OFFICIAL ARMY VS MEAN GREEN IN-GAME DISCUSSION***
GrandGreen replied to Mean Green Newz's topic in Mean Green Football
NT held Army to the least points of the year, but also scored least points against them. Not exactly the normal results from this NT team. -

I give up why If you think QB Morris is the problem with this team, you lack football knowlege. -
Mean Green Gridiron Podcast 11/1/2024
GrandGreen replied to BillySee58's topic in Mean Green Football
Good program as always, but one complaint. I am so tired of listening to who may leave as the majority of the content of programs like yours. NIL is here and it is destroying college sports, almost any fan is aware of that. Now, we spent more time discussing who is going to leave for a bigger payday than we do talking about the past game, next game and rest of the season. -
You are exactly right, way too many honorees. Cut down to one or two a year, or 3 to 4 every two years. Not sure how many retired numbers there are, but think it is very few.
-
The HOF has no standards, sure if Morris continues to have an exceptional year; he deserves HOF status. Inducting Dickey and Slinker shows that there are no necessary minimum qualifications.
-
It works that way, when any team you beat is defined as bad.
-
Not about Rogers. but academy standing of an university does not help you; if you don't graduate, or major in something with little value.

The off-season can’t get here fast enough
GrandGreen replied to Green with Envy's topic in Mean Green Football
Now, we are in to name calling. This t-shirt fan has attended over 200 NT football games. You might want to edit your third sentence, I have no idea what you are attempting to say. Again, Take my suggestion be like thousands of UNT alums and find another team to support. Obvious, supporting a 5-2 team with one conference loss to the pre-season favorite away is too much for you. Did you really think NT was going to win in Lubbock? I also missed the post, were I stated that this year's team was anywhere close to the best NT football team of all time. -

***OFFICIAL UNT vs MEMPHIS IN-GAME DISCUSSION***

With his record, he IMO was assumed to be a leading candidate for a lot of jobs. However, I doubt he really was because most schools are going to have the same obvious question I posed above, Was UTSA's success due to Harris at QB or Traylor at HC. His non-UTSA experience included assistant coach and coordinator at Arkansas for a couple of years and a great high school record at a lower level Texas high school. I think Traylor will have to rebuild UTSA's program and be successful again before he gets anything close to a P5 look,

It would of course have been better if they had of acted as you deem appropriate. However, after that debacle of a game; IMO it was a minor oversight not the afront you think.

John Hedlund given two also simultaneous yellow cards. NT trails 0-1 at half despite their usual massive advantage in shots
