I think I found your fuzzy math issue. 

(I'm sorry.  I promise I'm not one of those annoying they're/their/there jerks.  I just saw this and chuckled at it.  Nothing more, nothing less. (And three times equal!)

Makes 0 sense. 

I don't understand how a win vs winless baylor ranks them higher than us. 

mind = blown

But you are forgetting their wins over Southern and Texas State!

The reranks are bothersome.  We have played 5 FBS teams with a 3-2 record against them.  Four of them are rated higher including the two we beat.  We are not the only ones.  Tulsa beats Houston.  Houston drops 16 places, but Tulsa only gains 3.  Texas barely loses to a top 10 ranked OU,which they shoul, but still dropped 7 places.   Our losses were to the number 28 and 52 ranked teams.  All you can do is shake your head and wonder.

Shhhhh! Didn't you get the word? The media is in cahoots with us on our stealth strategy. Our objective is to be overlooked by every opponent who can read their rankings. Then we've got 'em where we want 'em...

I believe a full year healthy English is.  I don't know how effective he'll be this year, he will need to test out his injury, get back to game speed, and blend in with an already moving system this year.

Did y'all see that last defensive stand (forcing the 3-&-out before The Drive)... Rod Young was back over at DE with Tauaalo in the middle.  Rod then made that key 3rd-down tackle behind the LOS.
I think coach Yellock & coach Reffett REALLY WANT him over there. Regardless of if English is all he's cracked up to be, I think Young is going to be an all-conference guy next year if he can stay at DE.

English looked like a solid player at the spring game causing problems for the OL, which with each passing week the OL is seeming to gel more and more.. Its just a very tiny sample that we have of English, so we have no idea if it was a great performance from him, bad OL day or what.. 

I think English can be an force because he had multiple p5 offers, on top of his size.. If English can come in and just have half the impact of someone like guyton (who is another p5 transfer), all of us will take it.. English has done a lot just in hyping up the team, helping change that mindset of being a big-time recruit at one time WANTING to be UNT once he got here, and just being a solid guy on/off the field.. This defense rotates its DL as well, so the #s may not be there but the production should be solid, I think/hope.

i agree... if nothing more, having a fresh, big body to rotate in would be fantastic, i don't doubt the kid is good and i am not trying to insult him... 

 

I'm just hoping he comes back to tempered expectations

I'm just glad the team is winning so we're not looking at him to come in and "save the day", just to augment what's already rolling.

      JUCO players will have 4 years NCAA eligibility remaining

      Not trying to sound like too much of an ass but I'm starting not to care how it impacts high school kids. Many of these are the same kids that you will give a chance to and then they have a good season after one or two years and leave. So if rightly so they are looking after what is best for them universities should be looking out what's best for them and recruit players who are most ready to step on the field and help them play. PS also have an issue with some of these high school coaches who complain that colleges are not recruiting their kids as much but don't seem to want to bring up the fact that those same kids if they're giving the opportunity will leave a smaller school without hesitation if something better comes along for them.

      I had heard one opinion that players is eligibility ran out and are no longer in schools could have a recourse to try to regain some eligibility. This is freaking ridiculous.

      A very good NIL message from Coach Morris

      Keeping it real. I like that he's honest with our players.

      Morris Announces Defensive Staff Hires

      Mean Green add four coaches to defensive staff room For more information: Doug Waters, doug.waters@unt.edu, (936) 240-6780 DENTON – UNT head football coach Eric Morris has announced the hiring of four coaches to the staff on the defensive side of the football. The Mean Green have added Reggie Johnson (Inside Linebackers), Greg Richmond (Defensive Ends), Julian Wilson (Defensive Backs) and Ike Eguae (Defensive Tackles) to the staff. “We are extremely excited to add these guys to our defensive staff,” head coach Eric Morris said. “They bring a ton of knowledge, experience and passion to our coaching room. I can’t wait to work all of them as we look to continue to compete for championships here at North Texas.” All four coaches join the UNT staff after spending the 2024 season at Sam Houston working under new defensive coordinator Skyler Cassity. In addition, current Interim Defensive Coordinator Brian Odom will return for a second season. He will now coach outside linebackers and nickels. A 25-year veteran, Johnson joins the UNT staff after coaching linebackers at Sam Houston in 2024, helping the Bearkats finish the season 19th in FBS in total defense. Johnson’s resume includes coaching in 11 bowl games, including trips to the 2005 Gator Bowl, the 2006 Orange Bowl, the 2010 Sugar Bowl and the 2011 Cotton Bowl. Prior to his time at Sam Houston, Johnson spent four seasons coaching linebackers at Missouri State, helping the Bears to the 2021 MVFC Championship and their first appearance in the NCAA FCS Playoffs in 30 years. Richmond also comes to UNT with a wealth of experience with nearly 15 years of collegiate coaching experience. At Sam Houston in 2024, Richmond helped the Bearkats finish 16th in FBS in fumbles forced and second in Conference USA in sacks. Prior to his time at Sam Houston, Richmond was the defensive line coach at Oklahoma State from 2018-22, producing a pair of First Team All-Big 12 defensive linemen and helping OSU rank among the national leaders in tackles for loss three straight seasons. Wilson joins the staff as the defensive backs coach after serving in the same role with the Bearkats in 2024. Under his watch, Sam Houston finished the regular season ranked as the No. 10 passing defense in FBS and led C-USA with 12 interceptions on the year. Wilson was the defensive backs coach at Abilene Christian in 2022-23 and served as a graduate assistant at Texas Tech from 2020-21. Wilson was also a dynamic defensive back himself, spending three seasons (2015-17) in the NFL with the Chiefs, Ravens and Vikings after a stellar collegiate playing career at Oklahoma from 2011-14. Eguae has been the defensive line coach for Sam Houston each of the last two seasons and will coach defensive tackles for the Mean Green. He has helped the Bearkats finish second in C-USA in rushing defense each of the past two seasons. An 18-year coaching veteran, Eguae also had prior stops at Stephen F. Austin, Fort Hays State, Pittsburg State and Coffeyville CC. In his one year at SFA, Eguae coached a pair of FCS All-Americans on the defensive line and helped the Lumberjacks earn a spot in the FCS Playoffs for the first time since 2013. -- GMG --
