Today's print edition of the FWST has an article with the title "North Texas Expected To Hire UNC Assistant"       In the body of the article it states "A person familiar with the thinking at UNT said Littrell would be the choice.  Insiders believe that the Tar Heels want to wait on Littrell's announcement until after Saturday's ACC Championship game against Clemson"   The article goes on to state "That time line perhaps led to a rise of confusing reports that had sources in Ft. Worth believing that Meacham was headed to North Texas"

Those of us who read or post on GMG.com would probably say that this was only one of the many things that have led to confusion about this situation.

Ok, now I am starting to believe.  If it is IN PRINT that means it had to run by several editing steps that the online reports don't have to.

As a former Star-Telegram reporter, I think you overestimate the amount of editing a print story is likely to receive today. A long series of layoffs and buyouts have left the paper with an extremely thin, overworked staff.

True but I think it's a lot more editing that "random guy with a twitter handle".

      What to expect from Odom?

      I would suspect that we've seen the end of the 3-3-5. My guess is that he will go back to the 3-4 we ran through the middle of the season. We have run some 4-2-5 in obvious passing situations. If he is a 4-man front guy, he could use that as a base. I don't really think he will do that. We have to do something to fill more gaps and get a pass rush. You can do either with the fronts we currently have, but in the 3-4 you have to be willing to shade the nose. Caponi absolutely would not do that. We NEVER slid the front or moved the nose off of a zero shade. Brown can be a much bigger factor than he has been. So can our DT's. I just hope we put our kids in a situation where they have a chance. Filling gaps on the LOS from the third level is a good way to give up 500 yards a game. Hopefully we never see that again.

      Usually you’ll have one game during the week and one during the weekend. It’s just how college basketball does things. Our home non-con is atrocious (both teams and dates) but there are some good weekend games in conference.

      Caponi fired

      My guess is that Briles is such an offensive genius and will run the offense that Orr can just come home. But I’d rather have Orr as DC and leave Gary at home.
