Thanks, as always, for taking the time and making the effort to make this podcast happen!

I had an observation while listening this morning...

It seemed clear that Ashton was a bit frustrated by some opinions expressed on the board about last week's episode of "Beyond the Green".  I think we all can agree that Ashton will forget more about television/video production and direction than most of the rest of us will ever know and I also think the same can be said for the players/coaches with respect to football.

If an adult who's already had much success and built a noteworthy reputation in his industry concerns himself with the feedback of his work as expressed on GMG, how much more an 18yr old kid working hard to build a reputation as a good representative of the University of North Texas?

Just something to consider as we determine the best way to channel any negative thoughts about the team/program.

These young men are born into Twitter and of football-mindset since middle school/pee wee league.  That means they've been taking coaching and criticism since pre-teens.  I have zero insight into Ashton's mindset or background, but I am amazed how people 20 years younger than myself (I'm 38) can handle all the social noise in their life.

      McNeese State (11/18/24)

      Some have their entire college sports view shaped by the convos they get at the watercooler at work, or a small circle of bros that have been beer talkin' over the same 5 conferences (anchored in football) for 20 years. The NET, committees, and them thar advanced metrics be damned.

      Depth Chart vs ECU

      I think what Odom was running at USC was a 3-3-5 that had a “RUSH” position serving as a hybrid DE/LB lined up on the line of scrimmage, so really only 2 second level linebackers, making it similar to a 4-2-5 in effect. Different from Caponi’s 3-3-5 stack. Maybe someone like Chavez Brown could play that type of role but not exactly a lot of time to implement that level of scheme change. https://usctrojans.com/sports/2022/8/31/2022-usc-trojans-football-roster-depth-chart

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

      Offense lacks a vertical passing game. People have raved about the top 5 offense in passing yards per game but per the NCAA website and ESPN (NCAA is more precise with some of the numbers), CM is 48th in yards per completion at 12.37 YPC, 41st in yards per attempt at 7.85 YPA, 45th in completion percentage at 63.7%, and tied for second in pass attempts at 422. The numbers show we don't push the ball downfield as much as others and that we aren't efficient enough considering how little we do that. Being top 5 in passing yards is simply a volume stat at this point. We just throw a ton. Screens are great but when it's most of what you do, it gets dicey. Those and run plays start off as negative yardage plays dependent on blocking. Can't have those every drive. About teams figuring out EM, our competition has gotten better.
