Put me in the camp of those that dont dig the sow. I think its a mixed message since we rebranded ourselves as Mean Green. I would take the last gen of North Texas helmets over the eagle. North Caroli

The kind of honesty you NEVER get from Rick Villarreal. 

If this is the choice, this is another assistant that only has P5 experience and has no idea of the challenges involved in recruiting to and winning at one of the toughest  G5 programs in the country.

Littrell appears to be making the anti-Dodge mistake. Instead of bringing in all high school coaches with no experience at and who had no idea how to win at the FBS level, he appears to be bringing in all P5 coaches with no experience at and who may have no idea how hard it is to win at a low level G5 school. 

But footballl is football, right?

So, Mac brings in Cosh who was a DC and at a G5 as well as P5 schools.  Well, we all know how that turned out.  Have any thoughts on that?

I just want a coach that can coach defense.  Under your line of thinking, we could hire Kirby Smart and you would be pissed he hasn't recruited to a "lower tiered" school.

Oh, and I'm sorry, was this thread about RV?  Didn't think so.

Energy is overrated. I want a coach who can, you know, coach. I don't care if he has narcolepsy. I don't mind if he needs 5 Red Bulls to get to baseline. I just don't care about anything other than, can he coach a defense that mixes in some blitzes every now and again. Can he recruit the depth we need to be able to rotate fresh legs in and out of the game. Can he disguise his looks enough to not make the opposing coordinators laugh Gatorade out of their noses in the booth. 

 

All energy gets you is a bad ass drum solo.

That gif gave me my first laugh of the day.  Thanks man...

Whats annoying about your post is that you keep on bringing up only UNT coaches... Why don't you look at what other successful schools?  You continue to second guess every decision that Littrell makes is obnoxious.  Honestly, seeing your post every 5 seconds makes me not want to visit the board.

Wow, crazy drummer. My favorite drummer is Fred Young from Kentucky Headhunters because of his sideburns.

I also really enjoyed the Chad Smith/Will Ferrell drumoff.

See ya.

What annoys you is any rational discussion that isn't all "rah-rah coach Littrell is the best coach ever to never win a game!"

Just like the people who expressed concerns about Mac's record inmediately after that hire, you seek to shout down any concerns expressed about Littrell or the hires he is making.

So read, don't read. Don't care.

Come on 90 there has to be something positive with the changes taking place in football. Did you ever believe UNT would hire one of the top OCs in the country? Did you ever believe we would pay $1m (based on board having to approve over 1m commits) and have one of the highest paid coaches in the conference ?

Come on you can do it!

Substance over style. Doesn't matter how much you pay someone if they aren't the right person.

And I'm not saying that Littrell is the wrong hire, but if this is his DC, I have HUGE concerns not only about his assistant hires, but also about the lack of detailed attention he is paying to the defensive side of the ball.

I'm not in a position to say what will work under Littrell.  Frankly, neither are you.  

I trust the presidents decision to hire Littrell.  Then, I'm putting my trust in Littrell because he's the professional, not me.  Littrell hasn't given me an excuse not to trust him.

Sure, I have questions about the hire.  I didnt think Harrell would be the OC, I was talking to a person about it on twitter.  I thought he was inexperienced because of what little I knew about him.  The more I looked him up, the more I found out I was wrong about Harrell.  Saying that someone needs to do this, do that.  No, thats not how things work.  I know this is a message board to vent but you're not venting anymore.

That's what a rational person would do. 

On a side note-- Can the mods limit how many times 90 post the same thing over and over again.  I think the majority of the audience is tired of the same old song and dance.

Ah, censorship because I don't buy into feel good BS that has been dished out around this program for decades. What a peach you are.

How about this. If you can't take an opposite opinion, just don't read it and move along to the next post.

I mean, that's what I started to do with you (unless you directly address me).

      UTSA Game Uniforms

      Yes it does. Looked better closer up.

      Why Support this Program?….Seriously!?

      I condone and understand the mistaken omission. It was the most misleading victory in Mean Green history. I was there for that game in club seat because the weather was horrible. A pass happy UTSA came to Denton with a cold windy miserable wet day that made it impossible to throw the ball. Maybe they win the game if the weather was not so bad. But the fact they let that game be an excuse to keep Littrell another season was infuriating! 🤬. A decision like that had nothing to do with winning football because they followed that up with another double digit loss in the closet thing to a home Bowl Game in Frisco losing by double digits to a juggernaut 6-6 Miami OH. I said this at the time as well. And it was a confirmed bad decision when Seth couldn’t find a better QB than Austin Aune or get his completion percentage above 60% for more than 2 games in a row. This department is comfortable with mediocrity and programs new to the FBS level like UTSA our asses routinely. Long as we can beat teams having historically bad seasons for their program and FCS teams we are good. I am sure many of the few loyal fans were annoyed that there were enough fans that partied outside the stadium for homecoming to make the game a sellout. But after 20 years of the bullshit, I can’t be disappointed in them anymore.

      Is this what an “offensive genius” looks like?

      It feels like this season is over. If we somehow manage to get that elusive 6th win, can we file a lawsuit to help a 3-win MAC team get into a bowl game so that it will at least be competitive? Also, can we go back to the era when we didn't have any rivals? Any annual "rivalries" just end up fizzling because we're so terrible in those games that the series quickly become non-competitive and unexciting. We never really take any successful steps to improve the program while others refuse to remain complacent.

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

      Records of teams that we have beat. The only team with a winning record is SFA and they just lost to Texas A&M Commerce. We have a terrible defense and and offense that is explosive against bad teams. If the defense gets a stop, then the offense crumbles the next drive. South Alabama (4-5) SFA (6-4) Wyoming (2-8) Tulsa (3-7) Florida Atlantic (2-7) This team sucks, the program is heading in the wrong direction. I have wasted 17 years following this program. Not sure how you old timers have done this for so long.

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

      Looked him up. He’s a 5’7” 170lb QB/Wr. You’re trolling us or you’re not watching the same games I am… unless he’s the key to unlocking 800 yards and 55ppg he’s not the answer. The answer is a defense with a pulse. I am not saying we don’t need or want him…but he’s not changing this team from losers to winners by himself. That lousy team that just whipped us last night has always had a better defense on the field than we have. With the exception of 2013.
