If the kid has graduated, he deserves to go wherever he wants. If he isn't allowed to, that's seriously messed up.

Right?  I guess what happened is they released him to go play at UTEP and then when he changed his mind so did they.  I didn't realize players still had to get a release from their former team.  That's messed up man.

Similar to the OU QB wanting to transfer to WVU, same conference. Delton could have had this idea all along knowing KSU would block his request to go to a conference mate. So, Delton announced UTEP, let's the dust settle and then tries to move to TCU. I can see KSU's issue, but I have never liked that schools were allowed to do this.

I don’t understand the desire to transfer in conference. Before Baker Mayfield, it was standard operating procedure to block a kid from transferring to any school on your schedule over the rest of their playing career. KSU plays TCU every year. WVU plays OU every year. I don’t understand how this is a foreign concept all of a sudden.

I’m more interested in the next P5 D Tackle or D End grad transferring to North Texas.  Could care less for all other transfers to other schools.

The only reason I'm tracking it is because he could potentially end up at UTEP still, which would be a huge addition for them. And one thing I've noticed over the past couple of years is that QB scrambles have hurt a lot against our defense.  As close as the UTEP game was last year, it could get even closer if Delton ends up there next year.

This got me thinking, why don't we hear about linemen being graduate transfers? My memory could have failed, but I don't remember ever hearing about one.

Riley Mayfield, our starting RT for the past 2 years was a graduate transfer.

I hope he enjoys the Stockyards as much as he might have enjoyed Franklin Mountains.  Like Kansas' rural area that feeds Kansas State, Fort Worth is a place where he is sure to find many foods made of delicious beef.  If he's not muslim, he can also enjoy the many pork-themed bar-b-q joints in the greater Fort Worth-Weatherford-Benbrook Metro area.

This is some next level performance art, right?

      Anyone else still rooting for Eric Morris?

      Ummm where did you see that UNT's endowment is that high? Also, I doubt we could have hired Sanders. If you're interested in that kind of a gamble, would you be interested in Jason Witten who appears to be following the Sanders path? We could be his Jackson State.

      I find this thread comical. A program that wouldn't even pursuit Sanders as he was getting ready to leave Jackson State. They held on to Littrell could actually win something in year 7 is going to kick out Coach ELF and his flashy offense after year 2? 🤣. You can't give tickets away because it is so poorly managed and underperforming. If I were tasked with actually sabatoging the program in a covert manner I couldn't do it better. I wouldn't think I would get away with hiring a coach with no college experience as my head coach and retaining another coach for 7 years with nothing to show for it. Hell why aim low, let's go get Jason Garrett. He has NFL experience. 🤣🤣🤣

      That is comical. 🤣 The only thing that makes things move in a capitalist soceity is money. And our Football program doesn't generate it. I refuse to continue to waste my time with a core fanbase that seems not to understand that. A fanbase that 💩on even the idea of pursuing a transcendent force with a home and other local tie in the North Texas region like Coach Sanders. Colorado Budget/Endowment: 2.3 Billion North Texas: 2.6 Billion Colorado Student Enrollment: 37k North Texas: 47 k There is no excuse for a program in a perfect position to reap the most benefit from Sanders jumping up from FCS to FBS for not pursuing Sanders PUBLICLY. Retaining Seth Littrell in the foolish misguided hope that he would go beyond 0.500 vs FBS competition in year 6 was a low aspirational budget conscious decision. It communicated to me this program doesn't care to sell more tickets nor win. Only when have ridiculous nationally embarrassing outing does this program respond with minimal conventional competency, making staffing moves. We wouldn't be debating this level of idiocy any fanboard for a respectable program. Who brings back the WORST DC in all of FBS for year 2 and NOT fire the head coach who wanted to give him another chance when he fails in year 2? My donations will go strictly to the academic side of the house from now on. Long story short if Eric Morris performs in a underwhelming fashion Morris and Jared need to be gone.

      The long snapper had an injury a couple of games ago. I don't think it was serious, but it may have some effect on the recent FG issues.

      Yet they are placing us there via their ranking committee. Regardless, Tulane boxing the truck stops out of the playoffs entirely would be a nice shiny bow on an already unbelievable year.
