Going to have games like that we are up and down.. Starting 3 Freshman (I Believe) will do that, but it will do a world of good later in the season and years to come. Just have to keep going, trust in JM!

The last time I saw Gibson, he had a hard cast on and the stroller thing similar to English.. He did some shooting drills.. He was standing and shooting from 1 leg without putting pressure on the injured foot, and then he was also shooting 3s with the injured foot on the cart.. Kid was in great shape (and assuming he still is) but thats what I saw of him before the Indiana State game. Assuming he Redshirts and something doesn't change, think it was really good to get him a bit of playing time (even if it was very limited)..
-
I think that was the plan but whoever protested I believe said since the timing of the vote, it did not allow for students to be completely informed on the issue making it so they have to revote.. but not much talk of it in the AD office right now.
-
They are redoing the vote once the semester starts, I believe. More than enough to finish off the IPF budget right?

DRC: Could UNT lose assistants in the offseason?
BTG_Fan1 replied to Brett Vito's topic in Mean Green Football
Agreed, he gets to much credit for Fines improvement, the offensive jump from year 1 to 2.. on top of his name in the state carries a lot of weight with HS coaches.. but you have to think, plenty of schools would have interest in him potentially.. it’s been “rumored” places like UTEP, Mizzou among others -
Why would a G5 only get 6M?
-
Choice has helped land multiple recruits, one of them said he helped this cycle and Greg White was his get as well.. Im assuming having him on the 10-man staff allows him more freedom to go visit recruits compared to his current position?But I have no idea if there are any limits on how he can recruit in his current role. ——————— Sidenote: I really hope the staff finds a spot for Jeff Wilson if he doesn’t make it to the next level. East Texas kid and he gave a lot to this team, and could and should help the younger guys. Kind of view him similar to Buyers.

DRC: New Year's resolutions for UNT athletics
BTG_Fan1 replied to Brett Vito's topic in Mean Green Football
UNT is trending up.. But a few things for the resolutions that I would like to see... 1= WB, and the MGC need to increase the donation and membership of current members and start selling to soon to be graduates, and recent grads.. We saw the donation rate at something like .03% before the school year started... Just need to sale students/recent graduates on even a simple $25 donation goes a long way.. May sound dumb but say what the donations go towards.. Don't say it goes to coaches getting gas money or food, dress it up and make it sexy.. Your donation improves our recruiting ability by doing XYZ... Any ideas, or suggestions from people on here in terms of increasing donor rates please DM to be and i will single-handily give it to WB in the office. 2- Need to start the construction of the IPF. Its been in the works over a year now, the plan has been submitted and approved and now we are waiting on the last couple of donations... WB, needs to get this started ASAP. It's great having up signs and billboards but again, we need to start moving dirt. It's great for potential recruits to see a sign with images, its another thing for the sign to be there and construction being started... The Soccer/Track complex was delayed and it likely didn't look good that coaches were selling recruits on playing in it now rather than later. 3- Football, if changes are made on the staff meaning guys leave for bigger jobs, or are let go... SL needs to talk with WB about increasing the assistant coach pool... Finishing as West Champions, and multiple way to close games we need to improve the coaching and recruiting. No idea the current staffing budget but if its at 1M, we need to bump it up to 1.5, or if its 1.5 then we need to move it up to 2M (whatever the next notable figure is). Its time that we add ideally 2 or 3 recruiting aces. Yes it will be costly, but again this when UNT needs to be doubling down and making a run and not sitting back. Having the 6th best class is nice, but recruiting needs to improve big time. Yes a FIU is aided by 2 4* prospects and so are a few other schools by adding talented kids but after wining 9 games, being west champs, etc that we did this year.. we should be higher than 6th. 4- Getting the Student Fee Increase passed. This is something that was overlooked, and somewhat thrown at students before the end of the Fall Semester. WB and the staffs need to be working on showing examples of how and what the increase will be used for and what it will not be used for. The AD Office was getting out the word on the increase just a few days before and during the event, and should be using this time as a way to craft the message and have a plan for getting it passed. 5- Basketball.. GMac has already improved the team in terms of record.. Keep it up, and im not sure what to expect in terms of end of year results in the W/L column but would love to see this team keep improving and make some noise and maybe ruin 1 or 2 teams CUSA tournament plans. WBB, has been the best of the 3 sports that we have had recently. Would like to see them keep improving (believe they are playing 3 true freshman). Again, hope that they can keep improving. --Things that missed... 1- Improving the Strength and Condition- We saw at times how small and undersized and lack of speed compared to other schools. Hopefully in Year 2 with the new Nutritional Staff we can see bigger improvements. 2- Expansion of Weight-room to Weight-Rooms.. 3- Increasing the UNT Merchandising ability of the Athletic Department. From the shirts that SL has worn to the Dry-Fit, to even simple images of memorable moments or of Apogee. Many fans have commented on here but no one have heard any real replies. -
Yes they do them.. The players posted up images of them all dressed up before the start of last years.. I have no idea if its open to the public though
-
Or he goes out there as the OC this year and the eyes getting the HC Gig a year from now
-
Let’s hope.. it would be a very encouraging sign to do to SMU what they did to us this past year.
-
They gotta use it.. the question is what position is it? RBs don’t have an official coach but they do have Choice and Sims.. TEs don’t have an Coach but I would assume they are under Mainford since he is the inside WRs.. I really hope we would bring in a great recruiting coach.
-
And you drink the Green Kool-Aid.. making excuses for this terrible defense
-
Yes our record shows we lucked out in a weak conference that gets blown out routinely.. Also, 9 wins and we still can’t get into the 5 of our conference in recruiting with us having a 2* average... Lol TXST the last time I saw was 2-10 and out-recruiting us..
-
No I but there is a me...
-
Congrats to me I guess.. I’m also starting to think the AD has some type of dirt on for you to think this is a legitimate 9 win team, and not a 6-7 win team that won 9
-
The worst 9 win team in the nation that got dismantled numerous times on national TV.. Great way to brand the program!
-
Major difference playing in a potential birth in the Championship vs the average bowl game
-
Our Defense would make anyone look good.. that’s not saying alot
-
1- A new DC 2- Start the IPF

'18 WR Chritauskie Dove Jr. (Denton Ryan)
BTG_Fan1 replied to GMG24's topic in UNT Football Recruiting
It’s been said that it’s likely the offer has expired because of a subpar senior year and the staff moving into other offers -
‘18 Tyree Thompson LB (LA Valley CC)
BTG_Fan1 replied to BTG_Fan1's topic in UNT Football Recruiting
Also offered by Toledo as well.. -
Put down? dude I have been saying we need to expect more! You and others that defend it as a legitimate 9-win are putting them down and the program.. Don’t be okay with a 3 UAB win, when most everyone in that prediction thread called for a blow out.. Saying it’s okay for us to have close games vs teams that we should be beating down is pathetic.. Army shouldn’t have hung around that long.. UTSA had 0 offense this year but still produced vs our defense.. LT had a baseball player at QB and hung around for us to win because they missed potential GW FG. These are games we should have won by 14+ but didnt.
