Not sure many of us care if they are tweeting or facebooking, except when they decide to take their frustrations out on the fans and students, who have every right to criticize this team after what went down last weekend.

But yes Canales needs to make example of several players if they are going to ignore his rules he placed.

I honestly don't care other than it shows complete defiance and disrespect.  Sed Ellis tweeted something along the lines of glad he didn't have to worry about debt when he graduates with a big smiley face ( During Canales ban on social media) in rebuttal to a student talking crap about their performance last Saturday.  This has spun out of control fast.  We need help in a bad way.

This is correct. Naming Chico Interm was the worst possible decision that could have been made. Then again, that's what the person making these decisions does, so is anyone really surprised?

If the players are as checked out as they were for Portland St, we may be looking at 80 being hung on us at home by a conference foe.

Let that sink in.

Who the hell did you want them to promote? The last time he was made HC the team played a lot better and I suspect the same thing will happen this year.

Disagree, naming Cosh would've been far and away the worst decision.

There are a few players that post to twitter that represent this university and themselves pretty poorly.

 

Also, while on topic... there are some fans that might be a little too fanny for me based on some of the stuff I see on social media.

Unless there are suspensions handed out however long or short, then he is not serious or has COMPLETELY lost the team in 5 days which may be a new record for a program that is racking up dubious records.

Was it a total ban or a ban on team commentary?

I heard it to say a total ban until after the game today so they would be focused.

Too fan-ish. A little over-obsessive if you will.  Perhaps the fervor pendulum has swung too far to one side....

 

And that is coming from someone who has watched UNT football games with his dad since he was ten. 

 

Then again, maybe anyone who is a fan of UNT athletics has a disorder...

Perry, that who.

Neither Cosh nor Chico deserve the position.

      24/25 MBB Attendance Tracker

      Third home game in a row under 3K in attendance and 4th for the season. Now at 2,947, average attendance is down almost 13% (439 per game) compared to the first 7 home games last year. We are now down 1,185 in average attendance compared to last season's full year average. The home conference slate kicks off with UAB on New Year's Eve. Hopefully, we will be able to chip away at this attendance deficit as some familiar foes visit the Super Pit, but it looks like hitting a 4K average and growing average attendance for the 3rd year in a row is becoming increasingly out of reach. Just win and they will come they said. SMH. On the bright side, we're currently sitting at 9-3 and 7-0 at home and own the 2nd best Net rating in the conference only behind Memphis. Unfortunately, the conference is incredibly weak this year so we don't have many opportunities to improve that ranking. Aside from winning on the road at Memphis, holding serve in terms of a Net rating may be the best we can do from here. Actually, looking at the schedule, we do have three Q2 road games (Wichita St, FAU and Temple). They need to keep winning and we will need to win those three to improve our resume.

      SMUt getting owned by State

      Tell me you’ll peddle BS on SMU’s behalf without telling me you’ll peddle BS on SMU’s behalf. Here is SMU’s attendance claim for this season; one so amazing that they made a nifty graphic for it. The only issue? Well, they played 7 home games and the stadium seats 32k…so an average attendance of 32,651 which is standing room only and beyond capacity is a bit difficult to swallow and leads one to believe that only believers in SMU math would buy it. And save me the “but look at North Texas’ attendance” garbage. Even someone as committed to being separated from reality as you knows that if North Texas 1) bought their way into the ACC to allow us to fill our stadium with opposing fans, 2) overpaid for players, and 3) had the easiest conference schedule possible to stack wins…Apogee would have been LEGITIMATELY sold out. And let me save you the trouble of the next silly argument you were just itching to type as a retort…yes, we have far more alumni, but we are not situated DEAD CENTER in a city of 1.3 Million people like SMU has been for decades

      Stop Blaming Athletes and the NCAA for Ruining College Football

      Come to think of it, ESPN and the other networks who really benefit from all of this, should contribute $$ to a NIL fund and distribute equally to each schools NIL for them to use at their discretion. Wouldn't that be fair?

      Say you didn't see any SMU crowds this season, without saying you didn't see any SMU home crowds this season. That place was packed and rocking, like nobody could've dreamed.

      Auburn warns of potential ticket price hike ahead of revenue-sharing model

      I mean are you saying you want to know exactly what every player is paid? My worry is you would have each of them know that number is so they can be jealous and fight about it. I think the coaches have to determine the amounts and allocations unless you are an SMU or someone who can afford to pay every player on the roster 100k a piece. If you don’t have mountains of cash you have to allocate per the coaches wish I would think. Agents come into play sadly as well I suppose.
