I am more concerned about North Carolina.  Whether because of SL departure, their program has steadily regressed.

Honestly, don't think he will head back east.

Random thoughts :
~Not one of us can do anything regarding Seth's departure.
~Seth has no idea how this will play out.
~I am grateful beyond words for our administrators, Neal Smatresk and Wren Baker.
~Beat Arkansas

Tech and Kansas both won.

Did we go to an SEC school, win, and come out with few if any injuries?? 10 years ago the performance wasn’t even considered. All we wanted to do was get out without any injuries. Times are now good, my friends.

Best news of the day is we beat a Chad Morris-coached SEC team & got paid $1mil to do it!

Wren had better spend some of that money on some new swag for the players.

Glad we finally got some love on local news!!! However, I’m so sick and tired of people saying we are going to lose SL. He’s building the program and making history. If we can figure out how to give this staff a raise and continue to build the program I don’t see him going anywhere anytime soon. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 #keeplittrellforever

To all those so quick to believe that Seth will leave for head coaching job at Texas Tech or Kansas State, I want you to know the facts why that should not be a given.

1. UNT Enrollment numbers are slightly higher than both schools

2. UNT is in the middle of the hot recruiting areas in the country

3. If just our local alumni gets to a 25% active engagement rate Apogee would be sold out regularly.  (I believe DFW area alumni is over 200,000)

If Blue Blood premier P5 programs like Texas, OU, USC, Michigan, or Nebraska come calling.   Seth leaving would be very understandable.   However there is no reason except lack of Alumni support.  The numbers are here.  Apogee was designed to easily expandable.  The money and potential is here to keep Seth here away from the likes of KSU, Texas Tech, or other mid-level or door-mat P5 programs.  Wonder if Chad Morris is thinking to himself this evening "maybe staying at SMU till a P5 program that wasn't in total disarray was the the better move"? 

My perspective is that I will be very disappointed if Seth leaves for anything less than a HC job at one of the historically top notch P5 programs.  I don't want to see him leave for the likes Baylor, KSU, Kansas, Vanderbilt, Kentucky, Indiana, Illinois,  or Oregon State.

Isn't that the entire point of a forum... to discuss things with fellow fans?! It was my understanding that he signed a 5 year contract in addition to Wren Baker so I have no idea why news outlets keep saying he's going to leave when he has a pretty sweet contract through 2022 and after this season I bet the university will sweeten the pot for him and the coaching staff.

Seth coaches with a chip on his shoulder.  Perhaps he'll get so pissed at people saying he's gone that he'll stay just to spite them.   Whatever works.

Yessss!!!

With what he is getting paid...and the potential of more...there is no reason he would leave unless he got offered the HC job at one of the bigs he came from, like OU. Keep paying him for kicking ass and let him create a legacy and he will stay. We are finally paying well and he knows it.

☝️ This!  I LOVE this team!

[JesseMartin]

If a P5 is in a down season...they would have to be lower rung to offer at this point (a la Western Michigan to Minnesota) and we are paying well enough to provide a more solid future. And Seth will need to turn us into a Boise State level program before a P5 with better funds and a real future offers. We are actually paying well now. Of course if he gets offered OU in the next couple of years he is outta here. Maybe Tech or another up and down P5 but honestly I don't see him leaving for anything other than an elite program if he keeps elevating the program and getting paid accordingly.

Best part is realizing less than three years ago, we lost at home by 59 points to a team we paid to come to Denton for Homecoming and now justmade a cool million while demolishing Arkansas on the road!!

[Mike Jackson]

@JesseMartinHopefully you are right.  And we need to start selling out Apogee to make sure Athletic Department can keep Seth and most of his staff in place.  Too many local alumni are quick to spend 4 times the money on the medocre Cowboys.

So we get a 2.5 mil donation the same week we are paid 1 mil to beat ARK.

I think we've got a current visual of The Wren

I'm pretty sure those "ifs" have been in the fake news.  So, welcome to the club haha.
