Ya, it's not like we have a recent QB that was MVP of a bowl game or anything. Stupid.

I want to hear UNT90's statistical reasoning of why he thinks DT was so good? Please. Numbers talk, everything else is a clown show. 34 TO's at this point last year compared to 14 this year. A R

Revisit this if/when our defense and special teams carry any of these quarterbacks to a bowl game. We don't miss DT. You may want to grab some frozen peas for the swelling if you insist on bangin

It wasn't the quarterbacks. The blocking sucked. The receivers can't get separation. The running is pedestrian. Worse yet was the play-calling. It's time to get new players alright but not just quarterbacks.

Also we need to sign some new assistants next year, some head have to roll after this disaster of a season. I didn't have sky high expectations for the year (thought 6 or 7 wins was within realm of possibility). but to go from coaches pick to win the conference to an 0-4 start...some heads have to roll.

In the second half it was.

We haven't had a QB capable of WINNING you a game since...gasp...Todd Dodge was here. We have had QB's capable of leaning on a strong defense and running game. Take away these things and this same thread occurs a year earlier. Some choose to willfully forget this.

from 9-4 to 2-6 with little hope of another win this season. But you know, I don't know why anyone is shocked - before he came here and assuming we don't win again this season, Mac's winning percentage here in 4 years will be almost what it was when we hired him.

It's your ego that won't let you admit you are wrong, no matter the evidence that is presented in front of you.

Why have we changed QBs 3 times this year and none last year?

People on here are really really football stupid.

This is really not hard though you are making it so. It's easy to switch out your quarterbacks looking for one to carry you and/or provide a spark. DT would be part of a rotation this year. It's hard to switch out an entire defense when it is defective.

When you have a defense and a special teams unit that can cover up a 1:1 TD to INT ratio you can afford to run with it (especially when your alternative was Mini Mac last year). Make no mistake, if Orr, Trice, Chancellor, Abbe, Bellazin, McCoy and Darnell smith were on this team Greer would still be your QB.

Yup. See SMU game for evidence.

Lol!

The lengths some people will go to is pretty amazing.

Notice how QB's weren't switched out in the Ohio, Tulane, Georgia (until it was garbage time for Mini Mac), and Craphole game last year?

Ever wonder why that was?

You are wrong and were wrong about DT. Someday, when you are 75 maybe, you will realize it doesn't make you a weak person to admit a mistake and will stop disparaging a QB that was MVP of one of only 2 modern era bowl wins in this program's history.

1 JUCO

1 high schooler.

What we currently have isn't working.

I have no confidence in this staff's ability to recruit a very good impact Juco or high school quarterback. Our best bet is to land a very NICE transfer from a high major (who was relegated to 2nd or 3rd string for whatever reason). Mac's job should be officially on the line with a repeat of 2014 in 2015.

Not a DT fan, but if you don't think we'd be a better team with him at QB then I'm not sure what you're watching. He wasn't great, but he was a heck of lot better than anything we're putting behind center this year.

Did you see the Indiana game? The '85 Bears defense wouldn't have helped us win. Pretty much the same against UAB. The defense can't defend against a Pick 6 or a very short field.

Here is what DT averaged in CUSA play last season. 17-27 for 202 yds 1td 1.25 int

And this years QB's? While those numbers aren't great, I bet they are significantly better than this year.

Mcnulty averaging 18-34 for 236.5 yards and 1 to 1 td:int ratio over two conference starts. So again, Mcnulty is proving what this team would look like with DT.

But that's the thing that emmitt is trying to say... Our super shitty qb play this year has no bearing or shouldn't elevate last year's average qb play any more. Last year was what it was for last year. No missing him. No wishing we had that play now... because there are some of us who think it reasonable for us to find a qb from this great state that can be better than average since we see it from other like schools often.

      SMUt getting owned by State

      If everything will go the way you think it will go then why do we play the games or even schedule games with spreads over 14 points? The underdogs in College Football are in a perpetual no win situation. Get the upset there in the regular season are a ton of excuses and devaluation of what your program accomplished. Close loss then the naysayers devalue that also (SMU vs Clemson and the push to shoe in Alabama a team that lost to the Tennessee team that got blown out by Ohio State). I want teams to prove it on the field. And since the big brand teams have always been invested in scheduling the easiest path to the post season. NOT EVEN APPEARING in your conference championship game should be majorly punitive. So I don’t give a crap what people think Alabama (or anyone else would do). They lost to Vandy and a bad OU team. And they could have scheduled a decent FBS team instead of home scrimmages against Western Kentucky and Mercer. Or they could kept a SEC conference membership where they play more than half of the teams in the conference in a season. The worst aspect of boxing that killed it popularity was the ranking organizations a chicken hearted scheduling. I hate subjectivity in sports that have easy scoring rules. And putting in a team that didn’t appear in their conference championship game in a better playoff position than a conference champion or championship game loser is 100% based on subjectivity if the teams did not play head to head and have the same win/loss record. Maybe I will be in the minority of College Football fans over 35. But I will have no interest in the opening round of CFP if they start routinely subjectively punishing Conference Champions over teams that failed to appear in their conference title game. Go look at the SEC standings; even arguing Alabama over Ole Miss getting that spot is subjective garbage. Both are 9-3 overall and 5-3 in SEC play. But almost universally people are lamenting Alabama not being included. The stupidity and greed of the SEC had border state rivals in the same conference not play each other this year. 🙄. To me that is the outrage. Maybe if they had played each other we one of them would be in the playoff and SMU fans couldn’t have had a reasonable protest if that happened.

      I already wonder how long he's going to stay anyway. Is he expected to challenge P-barger for the starting position? If not, do we expect him to take the job in year 2 or would it be more likely that EM brings in another experienced QB. Whatever we do, I don't want ANY consideration regarding lost eligibility to factor into whether he plays or not. Edit: I posted before seeing this which is definitely good news.

      Only 2 of our 22 starters from our last game against Temple are in the portal. The high school guys who Morris have signed have pretty much all stayed, except for the guys who weren’t getting any playing time. Out of the 2023 and 2024 high school signees signed by Morris, Tyler Mercer is the only one to start and hit the portal. The other 2023 and 2024 HS Signees who have played extensively, Braydon Nelson, Brian Nelson, Evan Jackson, Landon Sides, Miles Coleman, Wyatt Young, Jaedon Langley, Taylor Starling, Quinton Hammonds have all played extensively or started as underclassmen the last two seasons and all seem pretty committed to the program. It seems your chances of keeping a starter is far higher if that guy is someone your HC signed out of high school. It’s a stronger relationship.

      SMU's Last Bowl Win...

      The Mean Green have won 130 conference championships, including 34 since 2000. SMU has been on probation five times between 1974 and 1985, and seven times overall—
