Progressive Football Strategy: The Coach Who Never Punts
golfingomez replied to Caw Caw's topic in Mean Green Football
While i think less punting and having more confidence is where the game is heading in the FBS level, I find it hard to believe that teams would fully adopt this style. The coach would have to be an established person who has the trust of his AD, or simply... a desperate AD. I could see a coach implementing a 'no-punt' rule, unless he is inside his own thirty five, or has longer than a 4th and 15. which, in itself would be revolutionary. Changes in the game happen when you can't hang with the big boys at their own game. It's why Hal Mumme turned around a D-III program in a year, using an almost unheard of spread approach, and why his protege Mike Leach was able to build Tech up and hang with the Longhorns. SImilarly, when Art Briles took that concept and spread the field even further, his high school teams were unstoppable. Unlike the two quick examples above, as compared to schemes and plays, this approach is more reliant on strategy and playing the analytics game, than on using limited talent on the field more effectively. Unlike the spread, Air Raid or Briles' 'System', this approach hasn't caught on with a lot of other schools at the high school level, which is nowadays the real proving grounds for new ideas in football. So until more coaches have solid data on whether this is a viable approach, I wouldn't expect it to make it to the next level. -
hell yes, hopefully he'll take advantage of his opportunities

Why Tom Crean would come here: Leicester City had 5000 to 1 odds to win the Premier League this season, and if Tom Crean believes in miracles, then North Texas is the ideal fit for him. http://www.crimsonquarry.com/2017/3/8/14835616/tom-crean-coaching-search-indiana-missouri-lsu-nc-state-georgetown

Could Jerome Tang Be an Option?
golfingomez replied to Side Show Joe's topic in Mean Green Basketball
if not him, what about his cousin? -
if that happens... we should all try to violate NCAA violations with regards to the basketball program... then at least someone would put an end to this period of 'basketball'.

All-time best UNT FB player you ever witnessed
golfingomez replied to greenminer's topic in Mean Green Football
wish i could have seen Greene, and I also started watching UNT football my freshman year, 2004, our first year after Booger (A.B.) I have followed pretty closely since then and would have to give it to Brelan, he had the speed, the quickness and was unbelievably tough for his size. Dunbar's game against MTSU in the rain almost gets him there, though -

golfingomez replied to Harry's topic in Mean Green Football
I pointed that out to my friend in the second quarter, thank God we didnt make it a drinking game, or we would have blacked out by the end of the third quarter. I feel like the booth learned that word this week and really wanted to use it as much as possible during the broadcast -
Stupid fan sends Alec Morris a death threat

put this a-holes info out all over the internet so that he gets reprimanded at school/work. Morris played a hell of a game today along with the rest of the Mean Green. https://www.facebook.com/winsteven13?lst=23901066%3A675470260%3A1482877206 -
Official 2016 Heart of Dallas Bowl Thread
golfingomez replied to Harry's topic in Mean Green Football
FANTASTIC Game! the team went above and beyond my stupid projection as i thought they were out of it when they went down 24-7 on a 90+ yard Army drive. My only disappointment in this game was not playing for the win at the end of regulation. I would've liked to have seen us take some shots at the end zone. -
yes, i saw him on the field after a punt, not sure about his offensive playing time.

if we don't get a stop here, i'm pretty sure it's over
