  1. If you hover over (not click) on his profile picture on the left side that looks like this in a circle I think it gives you the option of ignoring his posts.
  2. would love to see Sanders in the fold!
  3. You have been adamant about these hires being bad, but you never provide any supporting evidence. I mean anytime you make a hire there is a risk involved. You seem to be 100% certain and I am genuinely interested as to why. For the record, I am 100% behind these hires and think UNT hit it out of the park.
  4. Yes but I know for a fact there was no way Littrell was the one who was doing his site. Not sure who it was but I am guessing someone on the AD staff was doing it for him. I saw him in the parking lot at the AD driving away and there was a twitter post from him like 10 minutes later so it could not have been him.
  5. DENTON, Texas – North Texas has finalized the first batch of football coaching and support staff hires, head coach Eric Morris announced Thursday. Joining Morris’ first UNT staff are Sean Brophy (Quarterbacks), Patrick Cobbs (Running backs), Chris Gilbert (Assistant Head Coach/Tight Ends), Rolando Surita (Chief of Staff/Assistant AD) and Drew Svoboda (Associate Head Coach/Special Teams Coordinator). More staffing hires will be announced soon. Brophy comes to Denton following four seasons coaching and playing under Morris at Washington State and Incarnate Word. He was a graduate assistant at Wazzu in 2022. He played quarterback at UIW from 2017-19. He was instrumental in the development of UIW and Washington State standout quarterback Cameron Ward while working directly under Morris at both institutions. A UNT Hall of Famer, Cobbs returns in 2023 for his fifth season as running backs coach. Over the last three years, North Texas running backs have finished in the Top 26 nationally in rushing including 3,035 yards in 2021 – the second most in program history. Gilbert has a long history in Dallas-Fort Worth and joins the UNT staff following two seasons as Director of High School relations at Texas. The South Oak Cliff graduate served as head coach at his alma mater in addition to a stint at Terrell and a highly successful 10-year run leading the program at Lancaster. Surita is a longtime, trusted ally of Morris after serving on his staff for four seasons at UIW (2018-21) and last season at Washington State. He held the title of Chief of Staff at UIW in 2021 before taking a scouting role at Wazzu for 2022. A native of Houston, he earned degrees from both UTSA and UIW, and has extensive experience in both operations and player personnel. Svoboda recently completed his second season on Nick Saban’s staff at Alabama following stints at both Memphis and Rice where he led special teams units for both programs. At Alabama, he was special teams coordinator and tight ends coach in 2021 when the Crimson Tide produced one of the top units in the country. He transitioned to the role of Senior Special Assistant to the Head Coach in 2022. Prior to moving on to the college ranks, Svoboda served as the Head Coach and Athletic Director at Klein Collins High School located in the Greater Houston area for 10 seasons. There he led the Tigers to five district crowns along with three undefeated regular seasons and trips to the state playoffs in eight of 10 seasons.
  6. @Side.Show.Joe you have any other "insights" you may be willing to share with us?
  7. Who actually started the Mean Green Club? I had always been told it was RV.
  8. He is getting a lot of interest it appears. Not sure if that translates to offers.
  9. I am starting to see a theme with these basketball photos!
  10. Really excited about the way this staff is shaping up!
  11. Yes I would. He’s got talent. He’s the best we have for now.
  12. I’m somewhat surprised Patrick Cobb hasn’t faired better there since he was a coach there before coming to UNT.
  13. Excellent sentiments @UNTLifer. I concur.
  14. I was thinking more like Ewan McGregor, aka Obi Wan Kenobi:
  15. I know Gumms is staying because he said as much on the Sanoy podcast interview. I am more worried about Chris Lee and whether or not he will enter the portal.
  16. That’s impressive. I would guess we gave up much more than that last season.
