Well...we still have Littrell for a year or 2 more. 

Incredibly good news for us.

Remember this staff is doing what they are doing with bottom of CUSA recruiting classes.  Get them a couple of #1 classes and they can do more.

Good God, it is lose not loose. This drives me crazy. It is simple English.  @NorthTexasWeLove you are just a breath of stale air along with the others that give up during the game and then claim

This is a joke.  Littrell and Graham can't win a big game.  Harrel sucks on the second half against teams that are above average.  Doen vote me all you want.  Not wasting my time with the Rice.  Not g

What I wanna see from Littrell on next week’s Beyond the Green:

Littrell stand in front if the team and apologize for the coaching staff letting them down. Because that’s what happened. 

 

This one and the LA Tech game. He’s not going anywhere nor is Harrell.

UAB scrapped, taped and glued a  program back together.  We needed a miracle to beat them at home last year.  Upstart (r)FAU, UTSA, and FIU kick our ass.  Losing series history with all of them.  Makes it hard to sell the program to the Denton community.  Hell Liberty might be able to kick our ass in 2 years.

Meh. With this play calling and finnesse type of play we could have those classes and would still get punched in the mouth by physical teams. Recruiting is imperative, but so is philosophy. We teeter to and away from ours every game. When we go full out air raid we look great....when we try and get cute we get shut down. Until that bs stops it will be a lot of the same.

Right, getting the personnel never helps anything.

What makes you so sure. Chad Morris went to Arkansas without doing anything meaningful. Seth’s tenure has been more impressive than that despite not winning the big games (so far).

It's amazing how small the difference is between winning and losing. If our starting OT's were just slightly better we'd likely be undefeated.

The play calling was predicated and predictable. Some of those pressures go on play calling. The safery, which was the game changer (and the 4th and 2 bs call) falls squarely on this cross eyed offensive staff.

Good game guys. I look forward to travelling out to Denton next year. Mason Fine is a really great QB.

Thanks, but if our line can't protect him, he won't be able to play next year

We have to address this position to be competitive in this conference.  We created a monster in UAB now as they will be able to recruit better high school players.

Not the last series, but the second half was all Graham.  We destroyed them the first half with the passing game and then tried to run more in the second half. Fucked everything up. 

 Understand your logic. But does that mean GH is responsible for all successes we have also had?  I just find it strange when people want to blame the coach for everything that goes wrong but then talk about how great the players are when something goes well

We hit the upright on a FG attempt that would have won the game then we got the next one blocked (again that would have won the game). Tonight we fumbled on the 4-yd line when we were driving for the go-ahead score.  We've had some bad breaks this year.  We had all the breaks last year.  I don't know about everyone else, but I penciled us in at 6-2 at this point of the season.  A different path to 6-2 for sure,  but 6-2 none the less.  Think about that.  We're angry to be 6-2 after 8 games.  This is a different generation.  Could we be 8-0?.  Yes, but absolutely everything would have had to bounce our way.  Sometimes it doesn't   Let's regroup and win the rest.

This staff is working on their 4th recruiting class. Spare me your nonsense. 

And the first three didn't rank highly, if they can land who they will have committed right now, it'll be head and shoulders above the others.

If that's nonsense, bring the nonsense.

They are going to lose 30 people on the team deep, they will take a step back.

This pretty much sums it up. It is difficult to go undefeated.

Some perspective: I will take the 2 losses this season to any season I have ever watched as a UNT fan. All I ask is that our team is competitive in its losses. If we lose (and every team does), I want it to be by a possession with chances to win. It's frustrating, yes, but so much better than getting our heads beat in. We have the players, we need some more of them.

It is still a good year to be a Mean Green fan.

I agree completely. I'm not complaining, just offering my opinion. I've seen some really shitty football in my days as a Mean Green fan and I try to remember where we've come from.

He gets antsy with the refs alllll at the wrong time. We do not need to run the ball anymore. Quit trying. It has now cost this team 2 games. Throw the damn ball 60 creative times a game. Tired of the bullshit paddy cake run attempts for good measure. Quit it. 

 

Well...we still have Littrell for a year or 2 more. Yay us. Don't let fat ass Jimmy Sexton baby this university for 3 or 400k more this off-season. Call that inevitable bs bluff tonight. 

no, false, cost us this game. If we ran with Easley when he was avg 10 yards a carry we would have won that game. Mason's come from behind of last year isn't holding up this year.

 If we can put together a program that wins 8 plus games almost every ,I for one would be very happy

      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 --

      JUCO players will have 4 years NCAA eligibility remaining

      On the surface, this seems bad for HS grads. Really good for P4s. If you are a HS senior, your chances of playing D1...baseball especially, out of HS is severely diminished. A D1 baseball coach has way better options now than taking a chance on a HS kid. The whole model has changed and it effects all sports. Think about football. The days of recruiting a kid and developing him are over. Saw in another thread about our incoming QB from Miami. Someone asked (and it's a good question): "if he was the back up, the Heisman candidate starter just left. Isn't it his job? Why would he leave?" Because that coach doesn't care about him. He's scouring the transfer portal looking for his next Cam Ward. (just like he did with the real Cam Ward). Chances are the Miami staff is looking for a bigger, better deal. If you're a D1 baseball or basketball coach, the talent pool of 21 year old, developed, experienced players just opened up. HS kids are going to get pushed out. The transfer portal is going to get crazier to. College players are going to be used, moved, basically traded... With NIL, players are going to stay in college longer too. Saw something the other day: Every SEC starting QB makes more $$ than Brock Purdy, a Superbowl starting 3rd year NFL QB.

      College football could become a career especially when you look at salaries for QB's. Basically the Michigan qb could retire after four years. So we are going to see more 24 and 25 year olds in college sports? Does this hurt the NFL?
