North Texas coach Dan McCarney, already excitable when it comes to the subject of his football team, turned his annual National Signing Day news conference into a stem-winder.

Quarterback has become his Niagara Falls topic. He is resolved to fixing instability at the position. Three started there last season and all, in the estimation of the coach, performed below average during a 4-8 campaign.

Youre damn right were not good enough, said McCarney on Wednesday at Apogee Stadium. We werent productive, we werent consistent and we didnt play good enough at the quarterback position to get this program where it should be every season.

Nice article! And I really like seeing Coach Mac's comments. He obviously recognizes the problem and wants to fix it.

“You’re damn right we’re not good enough,” said McCarney on Wednesday at Apogee Stadium. “We weren’t productive, we weren’t consistent and we didn’t play good enough at the quarterback position to get this program where it should be every season.

“I just don’t like being below average; I don’t like being average. And that’s where we were at our best at quarterback this year.”

Does he want to fix it, since has all but annointed Lil Mac as starter for next year, too bad Smith is not on campus for the spring along with his Center from Butler.

Will have to wait 6 months to see if DMac is honest or not, but plenty of options there

      Transfer Portal Hits Post Bowl Game

      That’s not an entirely accurate statement when our starting RB, Price, broke his leg in the second game of the season, the returning starter, Ragsdale, was a shell of his previous self and the back up, Harris, was injured and lost for the season as well.

      Women vs. South Florida (1/11/25)

      The first 32 or so minutes of the game was the best ball we've played all year considering the opponent. When we were up 20 I was looking at USF's roster and stats to see if they were missing anyone big and they weren't. We looked like the men at Memphis once they started the full court trap though. Ugly finish, but it's another W. Now we've got defending conference champ Rice at home Wednesday night. Come on people, get to the Pit!

      Denton, America ???

      Eh ? Eh ? I haven’t missed a home game this season. I spoke with Rob before the Rice game. “What’s up with the ‘Denton, America?’ I asked.” As I said, he said, “I just read what THEY give me.” No,Teeth. I don’t think I got it backwards.

      Should we add Texas State to the AAC?

      We should stay and build the AAC with other programs who want out? Why? We should be proactive and try to bounce now, to the PAC if possible, with a few other regional members. The argument to me isn't PAC vs AAC today, it's PAC vs AAC in 5 to 10 years if the three you mentioned get their wish and move to the ACC before then. If Tulane, USF, and Memphis move on, we'll be basically be right back in CUSA. Then we'll be crying about how we didn't do anything to get into a better conference or how we've again been left behind.

      Transfer Portal Hits Post Bowl Game

      If he was so bad at RB why would he start in front of 4 healthy scholarship RB’s? Granted trying to recruit better players is standard for every school in the country. I think UNT signed a couple high school RB’s and one RB from the portal so far. The portal player was a second string RB at Missouri State who was behind a 3rd string RB transfer from K State. No one is saying Porter was Eric Dickerson but he was obviously the best choice according to the coaches and second best was McGill who played well and is younger but he still isn’t on scholarship either. So the “walk on for us” theory doesn’t fit when your best two RB’s were walk on’s. My biggest issue was the fact he wanted to stay. You lose staring QB, best TE,WR and O lineman but your leading rusher wants to stay and you let him walk? Maybe they will find a stud RB but for the 2024 season UNT’s most productive RB’s were both walk ons. What’s that say about the coaches evaluation of scholarship players?
