The thing I have admired most about Seth. Is his ability to notice a problem identify it and make a change. Recruiting sucked he went out and hired Luke. The defense sucks he knows it and I’m hoping Bennett can come make the change needed. We’ve had other coaches here in the past that would just make excuses. I truly believe Seth loves North Texas. Believes in North Texas. And wants to win at North Texas. And I can promise you that today the program roster wise is in a much better place than it was the day Seth took over.

I think the Defense shows Seth's maturity as a Head Coach. As he came in he, like a lot of the other other new HCs probably thought he could always score more than the other guys so Defense was not prioritized. I want us to see enough success next year so Seth is still here.

@BillySee58 One thing I've noticed in talking with a lot of the college guys is it doesn't seem to be an issue at UNT only.  The Freshman classes at all Universities have backlogged badly. 

Kids that signed 3 classes ago, RS year, played, COVID year, still RS Soph by eligibility but SR in school this upcoming season.

Kids that signed 2 classes ago, Redshirted, COVID year, now they are RS Freshman still but JR in school this upcoming season.

Kids that signed last class, COVID Year, still have a RS, and are still a Freshman on the roster but will be Soph in school this upcoming season.  

Kids that signed this class, Freshman.

3 classes of signees that will be some form of Freshman eligibility and you are looking at a roster nightmare at some point.  I believe the NCAA will have to come out and make some kind of amendments to the roster limits and scholarship numbers.

Correct. 2022 high school class is going to get squeezed, then 2023 probably will too. We have 66 scholarship players at the moment who are underclass men. Adding two recruiting class on top of that is going to be impossible if the team limit stays at 85, or if the budget does not allow for more.

Likely will mean the end of the roster guys are going to essentially start getting cut, and unfortunately will mean less likely for them to find a landing spot. A huge amount of transfers or “cuts” is inevitable.

I still believe sometime soon you will see the ncaaa make an exception to the yearly limits over a one or two-year to adjust the scholarships

This is likely going to be an issue as long as the superclass of 2020 and 2021 still has eligibility.

      Mensah Getting $8 Million NIL Deal

      You got it dumbass. Seriously, let’s look at the two situations without inserting race since you felt the need. Mensah is a RS Freshmen that entered the portal stating his price. He didn’t get a degree from Tulane and probably cleared out some basics while there. Mensah may be a great student and may live up to his last name, but his academic success was never mentioned just that he was entering the portal and here is his price Morris was at North Texas as a student that had already earned his degree, the reason he missed spring practice, and a dollar amount was never mentioned regarding his transfer/entering the portal. You chose to read it as a racial observation, not me. You were looking for something that wasn’t there nor considered when I made my comment. I was just adding in to another poster’s comments. Stupid financial decisions are not the result of race but thanks for. Inferring that. Watch the “30 for 30” episode titled “Broke” and it will reveal that it happens to all races. Thanks for being who you are though. I would be shocked if you replied differently.

      Portal players leaving

      I think the fact that he's playing in the bowl game shows 1) he just wants to play and 2) it just shows more of the drive and commitment that's gotten him to where he his. I'm not gonna' fault him for leaving if they aren't rewarding him with a scholarship and especially if it looks like he isn't going to be in the main rotation next year. That feels like "thanks for bailing us out, now go sit down."

      Too many "player-whisperers" these days telling kids what they should do next in their career. I'd like to see more data about players that left a program for NIL/more playing time on what the return on their investment was. If they had a do-over would they make different decisions or was it really the right move? Do players that change schools every year really have a loyalty to any of them when their playing days are over?

      Stop Blaming Athletes and the NCAA for Ruining College Football

      There is a lot of collateral damage in this Portal and NIL era. Fan-withdrawal because of PTSD associated with transferring key players will cause less emotional investment, and eventually less $$ investment in the program they follow. NIL donation requests, ticket surcharges, and pleas from ADs has displaced asking for donations for brick and mortar projects. Player buy-in to a coaching staff and program has been replaced with NIL buy-out of the players.
