Talked to a football coach I know and about his son playing at tcu. His son played high school at argyle with 5 other players that went to P5 schools. He told me that his son and the other  students were never approached by unt..... ever. He even questioned this. 

How does this happen right in our own back yard. This is the major problem and I hope the new HC addresses this.

Don't worry.  At first you'll get blisters, but later you'll get calluses.

Why not North Texas? Because we don't even approach kids who we think we don't have a shot at. Because they could never flip anyone. They were head over heels with themselves for flipping kids from Nevada and Texas State. This is why whoever the hire is must have a name these kids know and a system they want to play in. They don't want to take tests and play a conservative north Texas offense. I know defense might be a bigger issue right now, but I think Scaldany showed that's an easier fix. Cosh was at buffalo for a reason. Give me the best OC we can get with Texas ties and enough tenure to grab a great staff and let's go.

      Is this what an “offensive genius” looks like?

      The defense was disastrous last night but stop with this "offense did enough to win" crap. A 3 and out and interception in the first 2 drives is not doing enough to win. Were it not for a defensive stop after the onside kick and a Porter 79 yard run, we'd have been down 21-0 and counting. Yes, the defense needs to do more but what high powered offense puts up 7 in a half? This team did the same crap last year. No offense in the first half and then when we put up garbage time points people say "look at the offense." The offense is bordering bad. Tulsa put up 46 on UTSA. Texas State put up 49 and even Rice put up 29. Just to show you where our "high powered offense" stands.

      ***OFFICIAL UNT vs. UTSA IN-GAME DISCUSSION***

      Atrocious in "all 3 phases" (that onside kick was a film study discovery by UTSA) but E Morris is just a horrible game manager. Just stupid decisions on multiple levels. I wish we weren't in the bowl hunt so Caponi could be fired if at least as a symbolic action to show the rest of the staff (minus Cobbs) they need to step it up a bunch. To the decision making, it's all been said. The timeout at 2nd and 16 with 49 seconds to go when most offenses would just let the clock run out to close the half, not taking reasonable field goal attempts early on, poor playcalling (honestly surprised a screen didn't get intercepted), these things fall on Eric Morris. Just garbage level game management. It's like he's playing a video game where there's no real consequences. Time of possession was about 39 to 21 in UTSA's favor. I know Porter had huge runs but UTSA also had huge plays. Why is it that others are capable of sustaining drives and eating clock but our "elite" offense can't do so? Defenses aside, you'd think our supposed top notch offense could be more consistent. I know our defense needs to make stops more consistently but anybody please tell me why our offense isn't capable of having some 6 or 7 minute scoring drives? Morris needs to relax on the pace of game. Just idiotic at this point.
