I know the situation isn't this bad; however, I once attended a UNT Rice game and the score ended up being about 100 or 80 Rice, UNT 20. I sat in the press box where all the big alums for Rice watch the game. My friends granddad was the rice team doctor back in the day. The buffet was the best part of that miserable experience.

I had the good sense to stop streaming the radio broadcast at about 27 to 7 around the end of the second half. I've been through this so many times over the years I can't tell you. Tonight I refused to be a masochist like I have been in the past and listen to the game to the bitter end.

Based on the upgrade in UNT recruiting talent, facilities etc, and athletic department finances. I don't get it. I guess our staff isn't paying attention to the transfer portal or something. We must be getting out coached like nobody's business. or maybe there's something in the water in Denton.

People used to just massacre coach Dickie for the job he did as a coach at UNT. He did more with less financially, talent wise, and facilities than almost any other coach and staff in memory. Except for maybe Hayden Fry or Corky Nelson.

Maybe Seth Littrell and staff should try a little bit of stealth recruiting like Dicky did. Then the board crucified Dickie for it. Maybe the kids from smaller high schools in Texas that Dickie recruited had more heart or something along with the talent they brought to the table.

It was the early 2000's when Dickey was here... I can assure you those players were mentally and physically tougher than the one's nowadays. I can't tell you how many of our kids laid up on the turf waiting from a trainer to come show them attention just for them to walk off on their own power. SOFT
