Men!   First, long time supporter…Both of you have this coming, the buck stops with you! National TV, we looked like a high school team; do we ever practice tackling? I can’t believe the tal

I will take this over guys not showing up to practice (Todd Dodge) or players being arrested for stupid stuff (Dan McCarney). 

Yeah, here under SL we just get our assistant coaches arrested...

We tried the defense wins championship thing. It was called the Dan McCarney Era and it sucked except for one season.

Dan McCarney failed because he didn’t have a competent quarterback or quarterback coach after DT graduated. The defense was still good in 2014 until they just got beat down by our offense’s turnovers and 3-and-outs.

That was the saddest thing to watch.  Go back and watch that UT game in 2014 and you will see the D slowly becoming dejected knowing that while they were making plays that the offense was so atrocious (mainly QB) that what was the point of continuing??

So we're making excuses for the Dan Mac era now? I agree, defensively the 2014 season wasn't bad. As bad as the QB play was I was surprised we even were competitive in most those games. That doesn't excuse being blown out by Portland State the next year. And if this year goes like 2015 did then yes we need a change, but people saying the sky is falling after two games need to chill out. I went into this season expecting the defense to be in a rebuilding year and knew they were handicapped severely by having to work with new staff and having no spring ball and limited fall ball.

Oh I’m not making excuses for him at all. That was 100% on him and it cost him his job. Deservedly so.

 

You can call me a Todd Dodge apologist if you want and that would be fair to say about me but not so with Mac. Mac was a seasoned coach and knew damn well his adopted son would not have stepped foot on the field at any other program in the FBS. He killed his own career.

Oh it replays in my mind often. I was there and the defense held the Longhorns pretty well.  The offense made me want to throw up. I’m convinced the 2013 team would’ve beaten that 2014 Longhorn team.

Nobody is making excuses for him. He was an old coach and once the talent from Dodge’s leftovers all left, he was done. But 2013 was a solid year around here. It’s very probable it was the best team we have fielded around here since Fry left.

Get ready to write the same email next week unless we have a fortunately timed Covid cancellation.
 

TCU knows that SMU would’ve been a challenge and they had little benefit to playing them. Same with Baylor and LaTech/UH. They saw what happened to Iowa State and Kansas against the Belt and they didn’t want to risk it. Just put it on the shelf for Big 12 play. Don’t you find it strange that nobody happens to have Covid cancellations when they are facing a FCS program or a UTEP caliber program? It’s the damnedest thing.

Well well well

      So sick of the crap this football program slings us

      We do alright with the North Texas chant sometimes, we just need to make it a staple and I think people will do it.

      State fans showed up because they rightfully expected to win in this game. If the AD thinks they're going to depend on people to show up just cause NT has a team there, they are dead wrong. There are a few, but there are many many more who will not show up when they don't think their team will win. There are too many obligations and opportunities to devote precious time and money watching a team lose.

      So sick of the crap this football program slings us

      After Morris and Sheffield transferred, how many here were actually expecting to win? Many of us were just hoping TXST didn't handle us like they did UTSA this year or Rice in last year's First Responder Bowl. Sure, it's the head coach's job to have his team ready to play and in position to win regardless of the adversity faced, but it's still incredible the performance Mestemaker had. Tonight was better than any game C. Morris has had since Memphis. Coastal Carolina lost their starting QB to the portal and got dog walked in their bowl game against UTSA in their own building. Yes, the loss increases our bowl futility streak to an active high, and it sucks to lose to an intrastate program in an inferior conference, but that shouldn't take away from Drew's game. The biggest disappointment to me was how badly we were outnumbered by TXST fans. We went from packing the lower level of the Cotton Bowl to being matched ON OUR OWN SIDE. Like our team, our fans also struggle to wear green. However, there should be optimism surrounding next season. Eric made a poor hire with his first DC obviously, but made the tough (but right) call in getting rid of him. Next year's presumed starter will be in his last year of eligibility, so no losing another 4000 yard passed before the bowl game. If we struggle to another 6/7-win season and bowl loss with next year's schedule, I think Eric's seat should be pretty hot again.

      So a lot of you think that NT is not deserving of your valuable fandom. I actually was proud of the team that continue to battle with a completely revamped lineup including a completely untested QB. Yeah and spare me the low expectations accusations that are usually leveled at anyone that dares to not rave and rant about a loss.
