Why didn't Morris get some of those ICW kids or even Washington state?
He took the QB and the best WR to WSU. I don’t know why they didn’t more. Kinne came in at Incarnate Word and I am sure built relationships.

@BillySee58 what are your thoughts on how/why Colorado and TxState saw success in year 1 with so much portal turnover? Are they exceptions to a rule? Have they figured out a formula? Do they like pie?
Texas State has such a quick rise because Kinne was able to bring over essentially the whole Incarnate Word team. The team was the number 2 team in all FCS last year. I honestly believe that team would have beaten North Texas last year. The Irony of that is Eric Morris recruited virtually every one of the kids to Incarnate Word. Now Tx State also added some P5 talent as well. But there are also some kids from Utah State and Utah Tech as well.

Grant would of had to be blown out 3 straight games to be an actual equivalent exercise. He wasn't, he also had an impressive track record. Grasping at this comparison is good for feeling better I guess, but its not substantiated. Morris no matter what you or anyone says was no more prepared for this role than Seth was. This was a weak search hampered by an inexperienced AD, who was the benefit of another weak search. This is an absolute failure so far, we are all calling it. I called it the second it was announced. I would love to believe you could be critical, I used to always look forward to you and that billysee guy with recruiting. I just don't see it, personally in your spot I wouldn't be critical either.

We have 4 very talented running backs that will likely enter the transfer portal after this season so they can play for a team that knows how to utilize them.We kept the game at 3:00 to take advantage of the heat. Even as “cool” as it was, the Cal fans were wondering how their defense would hold up in “the brutal heat” against our run.
41 yards???How many passing attempts were made?
We should have done our best to wear them out. Our strength is our running game. Their weakness was the heat.
Against the rest of the league, do your “Air Raid”.
Not a good take. Patience my friend.

The overreaction/overthinking to this tweet is crazy, he's helped recruiting more than ever in the short period of time, and it was one game. Chill out on trying to read into this tweet so much OMG
Knowing coach O there is a very good chance this had absolutely zero to even do with the fans. Everyone freaking relax.

In a disappointing start to the Eric Morris era, the North Texas football team suffered a defeat in front of 21,000 fans at the newly named DATCU Stadium. The game held significance for UNT as they hosted a Power 5 opponent, California. It was a momentous day for the university as the North Texas basketball team, present at the game, received their rings for their NIT Championship.
The game did not go as planned for North Texas, as they were outplayed by California, ultimately losing by a score of 58-21. The defeat was exacerbated by the fact that California had recently announced their move to the Atlantic Coast Conference, joining SMU and Stanford.
Adding insult to injury, former UNT Offensive Coordinator Mike Bloesch, now serving as California's Offensive Line and Run Game Coordinator, put on an impressive display in his first game. California's rushing attack was dominant, accumulating 357 yards on the ground, averaging 6.4 yards per carry, and scoring six touchdowns. In contrast, North Texas struggled to establish their running game, only managing 41 yards on 1.5 yards per carry.
Despite the loss, there were a few bright spots for North Texas. Wide receiver Ja'mori Maclin had an outstanding performance, recording four catches for 122 yards and two touchdowns. However, North Texas faced challenges in all three phases of the game. The defense missed crucial interception opportunities and failed to make stops on fourth down due to poor tackling. On offense, interceptions were thrown, and the team struggled to generate any momentum. Additionally, special teams had issues with subpar punts.
The game also shed light on concerns regarding the defense under Coach Caponi. The two-deep roster included more walk-ons than players recruited by Coach Caponi, raising questions about the team's depth and potential impact on performance.
Looking ahead, North Texas aims to bounce back in their upcoming game against Florida International in Miami. Despite the disappointing start, North Texas opened as 17-point favorites for the game, indicating the potential for a rebound performance. The team will need to address the shortcomings from the previous game and make adjustments to improve their chances of success.
While this defeat was a setback for North Texas, it is important to remember that it is just the beginning of Eric Morris's tenure. With time, adjustments, and continued development, the team has the potential to overcome these challenges and achieve success in the future.

Morris checking another box. Such a great idea to be on campus and get student involvement.

Dont read much into the "OR". Stone starts. If he performs. Which I dont see why he wouldn't. He will be the guy.

I heard the podcast with all of those that do podcasts and was disappointed in their predictions for who was going to win the Cal game. Not only because they were so negative towards unt. But because of the reasons they gave. Needed more analysis as to why they think unt will lose against Cal specifically other than Stone being number one and the HC saying the backup will get minutes. Like… that was their only reason for being negative. It seems that was enough to flip most of them. Which just seems odd to me. My two cents.
I regretted us not having more time to go into detail on predictions in the show with the green room. I am still thinking we win the Cal game. But I am in minority at this point.
