Others have plugged it already, but seriously - if you want to be in the know, $5 is nothing for the best info you can find and normally well before it's officially announced or discussed. https://patreon.com/NorthTexasEagle

To be fair - That was a very common occurrence under Littrell Take for instance last week against FAU - not a big game by any stretch, but one that I wholeheartedly believe Littrell would've lost by 20 points - because that's what he did, crap the bed against teams on the road and teams who were worth a damn. I'm not saying Morris won't be the same in the long run, but a game like FAU gives me some hope that he learned from his mistakes last season and is improving upon them.

Welp goodbye South Dallas pipeline

Way too tough to say even before spring ball. 1) Is Morris actually going to be here in the summer? If not, who the hell is our QB? If he does make it, is he anywhere near what Rogers was last year? 2) We have minimal depth on the DL and a questionable LB corps. Only way to go is up, but if it's not a pretty substantial jump, we're still gonna be losing tight games. 3) What do our post spring transfers out/in look like? 4) Do the new coaches (particularly Odom and Leftwich) make a big difference? There are way too many unknowns on a team with 50 new guys on it.

Love this for Zach. Such a great player, and well on his way to becoming an NFL great before his career was cut short. Glad to see teams value his coaching ability too.

Agreed. His delivery and lyricism have always been unique and creative, but he's on another level now.

Yeah Kinne seems like a flash in the pan, but who knows. Maybe he'll have long term success but we'll see. I like that Morris is still signing full HS classes on top of using the portal.

7. Way too many pick sixes and Aune throws into the nonexistent third deck for me to ever have confidence he would win a game for us rather than lose a game for us.

Put me at a 3 on that scale. Morris is so good at scheming up plays to get guys open I trust him way more in this space. Even with Earle I think we'll have a good offense. He got rocked in the first game and it probably threw his confidence.

Reminder that Morris started both Jon Copeland and Cam Ward(after coming from a triple option offense in HS) as true freshman at UIW. If Cash is the guy, I don't think he hesitates That being said, I would like an experience QB to come in. We still have time.

That's also not counting them asking non-contributors to find other opportunities post spring

Reminder that Rogers didn't commit until January 10th. We still have time @El Paso Eagle

KD 2.0

Unfortunately they don't seem to care. I wish I could count the number of commits we lost to some random P5 who offered at the last minute. They see P5, they think NFL.

He also played at Frisco Independence so would be very close to home

https://247sports.com/article/signing-day-iowa-state-linebacker-flip-200997632/ 247 article he mentions the LB coach, but I'm sure Caponi had a hand in it.

Almost like it took time for him to build his roster..... We have way more resources here than he did at UIW. It may be another down year next year, especially if we're fielding a bunch of young players learning on the fly, but if he can use the portal well I imagine we'll be competitive.

Could be. Based on JD's comments it seems a lot of the guys on offense thought they could get a bag based on how good the offense was this year To me, it makes zero sense for an offensive player to want to leave this offense, UNLESS he thinks he's gonna get paid. If they're leaving because they didn't buy into Morris, the reasoning could be that he's sticking with Caponi and the defense is hot garbage and will continue to be hot garbage so why bother? Either way next year we'll know we have a roster that was either A) was recruited by Littrell and genuinely wants to be at UNT or B) Wants to play for Morris.

I'm sure all the players the Morris replaced at UIW probably didn't like him either, and then he built a roster that won multiple conference titles and a million dollar transfer QB. It's still early. This roster is going to be filled with guys who want to be here and want to play for Morris. That's why Kinne was so successful at TX State this year. He went and got guys that actually want to play for him. This is no different IMO.

Excuse my French but we're douchebagED

No thanks. As good of a deep threat as Maclin was, he ran more than one route. I don't want any one trick ponies anymore. Shorter was successful because Aune had one trick and he had one trick, the just both happened to align. "F*ck it go deep" isn't the philosophy that made our offense successful this year.

Damn UAB really got hammered after those losses. Maybe they're missing Jelly a lot more than they expected.

By that wording, it sounds like a PWO offer.
