I watched the highlights of the UTEP game and what I found concerning is when the UTEP QB did the sneak into the end zone.  Did you notice the push UTEP got on the line?   It was like we weren't even there.

They Say anything about Mason's Hammy? We relied on the run last Saturday because he couldn't get a good push off his back leg or at least that's what someone said

More like threw off his back leg because of the problem with the plant leg.  Seemed to hamper his follow through.

His plant (front) leg.  Good quarterback technique basically uses this leg to help generate more power in throws, at least that's the way I understand it.  Please correct me if I'm wrong.  But there was noticeably less zip on the ball and he still was gimpy on the leg after some throws last Saturday.  Hammy's can linger too, from what I've heard.

That being said, I think Mason did a fantastic job at recognizing he couldn't put the same power behind his throws and adjusted accordingly.  Our receivers are going to need to create good separation to help Mason out to ensure a good outcome this weekend.

DRC: UNT determined to improve after tighter-than-expected win over UTEP

UNT defensive lineman T.J. Tauaalo delivered an impromptu locker room speech following the game. He implored his teammates to regain the focus they showed earlier in the season.

Tauaalo gained the respect of his teammates in the process. UNT quarterback Mason Fine said that Littrell added Tauaalo to the Mean Green's lineup of captains because of the leadership he showed.

      PAC soon on the Prowl again for more Football members...

      He might have those connections but he doesn't care about UNT athletics. It's great how much money he has donated to the College of Business. Being a UNT COB alum, I do appreciate him doing that. However, just like the rest of our big money donors, people don't care about our athletics program. How long have we been trying to expand the athletic center now? I remember when the goal was $20 Million. Looks like 38 people have given $4.4 million. https://meangreensports.com/news/2024/11/18/general-regents-approve-athletic-center-phase-1-design

      Are other team eyeing Coach Hodge?

      All depends on what your definition of move-worthy programs is, there will be plenty that will be looking at what he has accomplished at NT. I guarantee you, he is on a lot of programs radar. You don't believe that other schools aren't interested in a coach that keeps having to replace most of the starting five every year and still wins plus 20 and has difficulty even scheduling games because no one wants to play his team. He may not have the name that impresses perennial top 25 teams, but that only leaves about 300 teams that would seriously consider him as their next HC. Unfortunately about 150 of those teams can pay more and have a lot more fan and financial support. I don't even think his slow down defensive oriented play is going to be that big of problem. Colleges want to win more than play a more favored brand of basketball consisting of more scoring and uptempo offenses. There are AD's out there that are going to wonder what he can do with copious NIL money and a school that actually supports basketball.

      Info courtesy of @MCMLXXX on the Conference ReAlignment forum... St. Marys appears very close to being added for basketball. Texas St. listed as "all but done" and UNT now listed as "possible" along with UTSA in this updated PAC expansion video.

      Cal Baptist & Utah Valley to Big West

      It was Dixie State Univ in Utah until the name change in 2022. Dixie State University changed its name to Utah Tech University on July 1, 2022. The name change was intended to distance the university from the Confederacy and the term "Dixie".
