Senior running back Antoinne Jimmerson elected not to travel with UNT to the game at Louisiana Tech on Saturday, interim coach Mike Canales said Monday.

Jimmerson ranks 13th in program history with 1,799 rushing yards, but he has seen his role diminish as sophomore Jeffrey Wilson's role has grown.

Canales said Jimmerson has been dealing with a friend being shot last week and has also not been pleased with his role. He had 5 yards on 12 carries in his last three games.

I wish someone would talk some sense into him. I've been in his shoes. He's going to miss the life. He has less than a month of football left for the rest of his life and when it's over, it's over. There hasn't been a Fall I didn't miss playing and more importantly hanging out with the types of guys that are attracted to football. You don't get a comical cast of characters like this in the real world. He doesn't realize he will even miss the travel, the never ending meetings, the beat downs in practice, the weight room, conditioning, off season early mornings, ass chewings, and I could go on. Anyone who's lucky enough to be in his shoes needs to appreciate every second he has left.

I got my ass kicked around as a scout teamer in high school and rarely ever saw the field, and I miss that to this day.  Well said!

Candidly not to raise the topic of the draft Chico movement but I agree with him. No one should be begged to play football. You are with us or against us. Whether you are happy with your role of not you are playing fbs d1 football a chance most will never get.

Jimmerson is a senior and needs to be a leader no matter what the situation is. However I believe he is done mentally and just counting down the days until its all over.

I haven't seen anything that looks like quit in Canales.  Maybe he's auditioning for a job.  I like what appears to be discipline.  I'm surprised that a scholarship athlete can decide for himself what games he wants to participate in and those he doesn't.

So, he just quit as far as I'm concerned.

I hope they tell him to hit the road and have a nice life.

Character issues abound with this guy.

Maybe he can get a job at Walmart?

He's pissed, who cares? Jimmerson is getting a free education & playing D1 football, something a lot of kids dream of. I'm pissed at him for getting arrested for shoplifting at Dillards his freshman year & getting arrested again this year at 2:00 am, not only embarrassing himself but his family & his teammates. He's had some good highlights here, who can forget the ULL or Rice games? Stick it out and grow up Jim Jim.

      Surrendering ourselves to a G5 playoff would be disastrous. It would give the P4 all the ammo they need to effectively remove the automatic bid for the highest ranked G5 champ. The correct solution, in today's environment, is to maintain the automatic G5 bid for the main playoffs and have a mixed G5/P4 NIT style tournament as Pernetti suggested. Don't take, add. Wouldn't be a bad idea to allocate future "NIT" and playoff spots per conference based on their previous performances. They do this in Europe for their European tournaments. Each league gets a coefficient rating based on the previous 5 years performance in European competitions. Not performing? You lose spots. Performing? You gain spots. So you know, the ACC going 1-9 so far, the Big12 going 2-7 back in 2022, the SEC going 6-8 and ACC going 2-4 both in 2021 would have some affect on that rating and future potential spots in the playoffs and NIT. No reason the ACC should get 2 spots next year considering this year's playoffs. The rating would just ensure transparency.

      Because the ever present lie of “we could be next” keeps G5 athletic directors, coaches, and fan bases docile. Keep the system just shy of outright exclusion of G5 programs and you can slowly strip away access while claiming that wasn’t the plan all along. It’s why the Power Ball lottery is so popular. Even though the chances of winning are exponentially small for everyone (the G5 programs), everyone will point to that one lady in a far off trailer park (Boise) who hit it big!

      Women at Wichita State (12/29/24)

      Time to see how good or bad this conference is. The women (8-4) travel north to face Wichita State (6-7) in the AAC opener. We beat the Lady Shockers in Denton last year, 72-68. At 8-4, the women are tied with ECU for third best nonconference record in the league. Only UTSA (9-2) and UAB (9-3) are better. However, at 17-7, UNT has the best combined men's and women's basketball record of any program in the AAC. Game is at 1pm on ESPN+.
