Ronnie Morgan?

Looks sharp.

@Wren why are we allowing this staff to recruit players? It makes no sense to me.

4. MEMPHIS (Differential: + 11.45) SM PR/ESPN FPI Average: 44.45 Effective YPP Power Rating: 55.9 Next game: 11.5-point favorite at home vs. North Texas on Saturday Steve's analysis: With Cincinnati, Houston, SMU and UCF garnering most of the attention in the American Athletic Conference, Memphis could sneak through the cracks. The Tigers have been somewhat forgotten in the early going, especially after a 49-23 loss to Mississippi State to start the season. However, they have rebounded nicely in the last two games, particularly defensively, and have posted Effective Stats befitting a much more respected team. In fact, their Effective YPP PR of 55.9 would be worse than just three current Big Ten teams’ Power Ratings. One thing to be wary of at this point is Memphis’ + 1.7 turnover differential. However, their time of possession rank is 125th in the country, so they could improve there. The jury is out still, but the Tigers could be an underrated favorite this week against a North Texas team that has lost its last three games ATS while allowing 133 points. read more: https://www.vsin.com/college-football-teams-better-or-worse-than-perception/

Great post. Totally agree Texas ties are overplayed.

Wow that is aweome @GrayEagle. Really enjoy your postings on here and always read them. Would love to meet you in person sometime as a game or event. Thanks for your support of UNT and Go Mean Green to you sir!

That is crazy talk. This is a highly desirable job and will get a ton of interest. There are plenty of candidates that would love to have had the opportunities thrown Littrell's way.

Agree but a lot of it is we just have never enjoyed consistent success here. Mostly due to poor coaching hires. We have a good location, good facilities and tons of alumni. Look at UTSA, they have had a team in the top 25 and that helps get a legion of fans engaged. We had the one 9 win season with Littrell and lost the bowl.

I don't know that him being an Oline coach is the issue. I mean the Arkansas coach Pittman is an Oline guy and he's doing a bang up job with them. I do agree with you that the coaching chemistry here is dismal and we need to change it up.

This could have been awkward. For Seth Henigan. For Ryan Silverfield. For the entire Memphis football program. Grant Gunnell could have come to Simmons Bank Liberty Stadium this week as the North Texas starting quarterback, just a few months after transferring from Memphis, an exit indirectly shepherded by Silverfield, who gave Henigan the first team snaps in spring practice over Gunnell. It could have been a referendum on Silverfield’s choice ‒ and Silverfield – if Gunnell returned to Memphis with North Texas and out-played Henigan. But it’s none of that, and not simply because Gunnell isn’t expected to be the North Texas starting quarterback Saturday. Henigan is playing too well to play the what-if game.

Seems like he is indirectly stating the obvious challenge for UTSA and other system type schools underneath a flagship program. All of the big donors in San Antonio are being encouraged to give all their money to UT Austin. That seems to be his main message, basically "Please throw us a bone too".

Moody is clutch with the FG for the lead!!

“It’s a tough deal. I feel really bad for him and his family,” said Eric Nielsen, who played left guard on the Eagle team Frost quarterbacked. “A few years ago when he was hired, I was pretty sure things were going to work out. I thought Scott would wind up retiring from this job.” “Mostly what I feel bad about is it just didn’t work at Nebraska. I know he poured his heart and soul into the program,” said another former teammate, Matt Gideon. Frost “sort of gave a lot up at that time of his career to come here and to try to make this work. And there’s no doubt in my mind that he did everything he could. Unfortunately it didn’t fit. I don’t know why. That’s probably the thing that hurts the most for me,” said Gideon, one of Frost’s wide receivers at Wood River. “From the outside looking in, I just can’t figure out why it wasn’t a fit and why we couldn’t turn things around and win six ballgames a year, or eight,” Gideon said. “That’ll just be something I’ll always scratch my head about. It is what it is. Scott’ll always be a Husker, and I appreciate him for who he is.” Jim Skeen shot video of every game Frost played at Wood River, and every game his late father, Larry, coached in Skeen’s hometown. When Frost was fired on Sunday, Skeen was stunned. Nielsen is confident that Frost will rebound. “The thing is with Scott, Scott’s very smart. He’s going to wind up landing on his feet. He’ll be either an offensive coordinator at a major school again or he’ll be a head coach at a lower level for a while. I honestly, truly believe that he’ll wind up as a head coach in Power 5 in the next 10 years,” Nielsen said.

Thanks it seems to be working now. I’ll give it a listen.

They scored 27 points on us!

Excuse me but we share the same conference with them. Does that not qualify? And who appointed you judge and jury BTW?

Agreed and they like many others, Kstate, Kansas OSU Iowa State and others have been propped up due to being in respectable conferences. Nebraska is a hell hole.

They just really don’t care about the fans.
