While GH has a winning personality and brought apparently all the positive energy the SL program had, he is not the right candidate for our HC at this time. We should bring in someone with a positive W-L record at another G5 or possibly an FCS.

Is there any chance that they could convince Daryl Dickey to come back?  He seemed to do pretty good when he was here and knows about how to win.  And we have a nicer stadium now.

If true then the BOR and school president can usher WB out with SL when he goes. That would be completely unacceptable.

For Seths type of money he may find living in our state just fine.  He was my choice when we were last searching.  He would be my pick.

I think I need new glasses or more sleep. I read that link as www.sugarmecocksports.com and was thinking what the heck is Deep up to.

I would have agreed with you a few years ago. However the difference between us is that while your cup is half empty mine is half full. We had a historically underfunded athletic program. No more. We were primarily a teacher and music college. No more. We are a commuter college. No more. We had not put a  dime into athletic facilities. No more. We need more student, community, and alumni support. Who doesn't. "Never" is a long time, and a look in the rear view mirror is not always pretty. Having said that I believe that we are just one hire away from reaching our potential .

What part is horsecrap? I mean he probably doesn't follow us regularly, just like the rest of the 98% of the UNT Family, but this place has a way to really beat people down, fans and coaches alike.

I cannot tell you how many people with UNT connections either quit being a fan or just refused to even consider it. And I know that there are lots of reasons for that. They say winning will cure this, so I hope we can actually do that again in the years ahead.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, flexbone. We aren't winning national championships, we just aren't. And I know the state is filled with spread offenses, doesn't mean you can't cherry pick the underrecruited much like the service academies do. Undersized linemen is also a plus in this offense. It sets us a part and makes us difficult to game plan for. We become a headache for a lot of people.

Hmm, I do like your thinking. I read recently that he aspires to be a Head Coach. AND it just might be a longshot. But we'd never know unless we pick up the phone and ask.

Are you talking about the offense that we ran in the late 80's. Most notably the one we were beating Texas with in the 1988 game? If so, I say make it happen.

I would definitely look at coaches that did not find success at the P5 level, but had success as a head coach at a G5 or another school. Kiffin to FAU was brilliant.

Kevin Sumlin might be available.

And especially that defense we had!

You do know he interviewed for the Philly HC job this past offseason, right?

And with the way the Cowboys offense looks so far, this guy will pretty much be able to name his next job in about 4 months.

      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.
