Not one person ever said Alex Morris was going to be the starter at Alabama. -
Breaking: North Texas lands Miami QB Transfer (Free)
TheReal_jayD replied to TheReal_jayD's topic in Mean Green Football
I think UNT has two very talented freshman on the roster currently in Drew and Cash. Bringing in a veteran who has experience shouldn’t be viewed as a bad thing. It allows the two freshman to continue to be developed by Morris and Brophy who continue to prove they are two of the best in the country. They are on a great run with Mahomes, Ward, Mateer, Rogers, Morris. Throwing the two young guys into the fire could do a lot more harm than good. I hope neither hit the portal and continue to grow and progress.- 123 replies

Any word on Bowl destination?

Yeah you obviously missed the part about revenue sharing and leveling the playing field. 🫡 -
Any word on Bowl destination?
TheReal_jayD replied to meangreenfaninno's topic in Mean Green Football
This team won 6 games… but was bottom 3 in the AAC in NIL. They had a one possession game against Memphis whose NIL budget is more than $2 million more than what UNTs is. UNT lost its top 4 RBs, starting LG, and Safety (best defensive player) and still over came to win six games. And all but one of those six wins came against team with larger NILs at the moment. This staff and players never made excuse and kept grinding. This team used 10 different offensive lines second most in the country. This time next year revenue sharing will be in place and it will even the playing field. We hired one of the young and upcoming dcs in the country who is going to be able to recruit talent. GMG and cheer on UNT.- 175 replies

We do understand how bowl selection process works correct? Bowl games send invitations. Not like Mosley and co. get the pick of 6 bowls and opponents. Being in Dallas against another G5 Texas team has potential to be one of the better attended and watched bowl games. It will also have huge recruiting implications. Not to mention all the storylines that are built in to the game.- 175 replies

DENTON – UNT Football head coach Eric Morris named Skyler Cassity as the program’s next defensive coordinator Wednesday. Cassity comes to UNT after spending the 2024 season in the same role at Sam Houston, guiding the Bearkats to the No. 20 national rank in total defense this season. An up-and-coming star in the coaching ranks, Cassity led a Sam Houston pass defense that ranked 11th in the country while forcing 22 turnovers, the 16th-most in FBS in 2024. The Bearkats were also one of only four Group of Five teams to give up 20.0 points per game or less this season. “We are excited to have Coach Cassity join our staff,” Morris said. “He’s one of the best young defensive minds in college football. He is someone that I have watched for a while, and I look forward to him leading our defense to the next level.” “First of all, I am excited to be joining the North Texas family,” Cassity said. “Similar to Coach Morris, I am happy to be able to stay in Texas and join such a great program. This program instills character, discipline and toughness into its team. I have extremely high expectations for our new defensive unit, and I believe this is the right place to achieve those goals. I look forward to competing for championships, and I wouldn’t be here if I didn’t believe Coach Morris was the guy to lead us in that direction. My work has already started, and I look forward to meeting and getting to know everyone in the Mean Green family. I want to thank my wife, Kori, for her unbelievable support through the whole process. Texas is home for the both of us, and we are excited for all that we will be able to achieve here at North Texas. Thank you and Go Mean Green!” Upon arrival at Sam Houston, Cassity inherited a 3-9 defense which he immediately turned into a 9-3 team for 2024. The program became bowl eligible for the first time, narrowly missing out on a berth in the Conference USA (CUSA) championship game. Cassity quickly upgraded Sam Houston’s defense in his one year. The Bearkats’ scoring defense ranked 64th in FBS in 2023 and jumped to the No. 21 scoring defense in 2024. In addition, Sam Houston improved from 88th to 20th in total defense, 92nd to 56th in rushing defense and 77th to 11th in passing defense. The Bearkats dominated nationally in FBS including ranking eighth in possession stop rate at 73.8%, in redzone defense and fourth-down defense — also ranking 21st in scoring defense and 20th in total defense. In CUSA, Cassity’s defense was top five in every category including first in scoring defense, passing defense, passing defensive efficiency, redzone defense and interceptions. In 2024, the Sam Houston defense held seven of its 12 opponents under its season scoring average and held nine to 21 points or less. The Bearkats were even stronger defensively down the stretch, allowing just 13.2 points per game over the final five contests. Prior to Sam Houston, Cassity spent two seasons, 2022-23, as Abilene Christian’s defensive coordinator. In 2023, two major publications highlighted Cassity’s success and bright future: 247 Sports named him to its “30 Under 30” list as did Dave Campbell’s Texas Football “40 Under 40.” No stranger to the state of Texas, Cassity also served as a graduate assistant at both Texas Tech (2018-19) and Texas State (2017) prior to his time at ACU. At ACU, he helped the Wildcats post a dozen wins in two seasons, its most in a two-year period since the program moved to Division I. While there he coached four all-conference selections, his defense held 14 of its 19 FCS opponents under their season scoring averages and was a top 35 Massey-rated defense each year. In 2022, he helped lead the Wildcats to a 7-4 record, the best for the program since it left the Division II ranks. That season his defense was proclaimed as the top in ACU's history and was near the top of the Western Athletic Conference in multiple statistical categories, ranking second in the league in rushing defense, scoring defense and total defense. Additionally, the Wildcats ranked in the top 20 of the FCS in third-down defense, first downs allowed and rushing. A year later he helped lead Abilene Christian to five more victories while his defensive unit ranked second in the newly formed United Athletic Conference and 23rd in the FCS with 12 interceptions. The Wildcats also ranked 29th in the FCS in defensive touchdowns and 27th in fourth-down defense. Cassity’s stint at ACU came after spending two seasons coaching outside linebackers, nickels and safeties under head coach Bobby Petrino at Missouri State. The Bears' defense finished the 2021 season ranked sixth nationally in turnovers forced, 11th in interceptions and 11th in defensive touchdowns while making their second consecutive appearance in the FCS Playoffs, snapping a 30-year playoff drought for the program. While working on his master’s degree in sports management at Texas Tech, Cassity was an outside linebackers analyst and defensive graduate assistant for the Red Raiders’ 2017 and 2019 seasons under then-head coach Kliff Kingsbury, plus the 2019 season under then-head coach Matt Wells. For the 2016 season, Cassity coached at Texas State as the primary defensive graduate assistant under then-head coach Everett Withers. The Bobcats boasted the 2017 top recruiting class in the Sun Belt Conference. Cassity attended Auburn University for his undergrad degree from 2012-16, earning his business administration degree in 2016. He played lacrosse while also growing his football coaching and recruiting experience in the Southeastern Conference with the Tigers’ football team thanks to then-head coach Gus Malzahn and Casey Woods hiring him in February of 2014. While in high school at Riverwood International Charter School, Atlanta, Cassity was a quarterback for the Raiders under then-head coach Robert Ingram, Cassity’s football playing career was cut short in 2010 due to career-ending chest surgery to correct his pectus excavatum via the Nuss Procedure. Ingram, still a mentor today, immediately elevated the young Cassity to a student assistant thus kicking off his coaching career. He brings along plenty of football pedigree as well, growing up as the son of longtime college coach Mike Cassity, who lettered for Kentucky football and wrestling (1971-76), spent 40 years on the sidelines including 22 years as a defensive coordinator at the Division I level at Louisville, Illinois, Oklahoma State, Baylor, Cincinnati, Georgia Tech, East Carolina, ULM and Western Kentucky. A football family, Cassity has two brothers who played college football as Hunter, played safety at Samford and Braden was a fullback at Oklahoma State. Cassity is married to nee Kori Peek, who grew up in Lubbock. The couple met while both attending Texas Tech.
