And the fact that players were talking back to us DOWN 42 is absolutely ridiculous. Absolutely no discipline and they should be ashamed for cussing and talking back to us. We pay the money for part of their scholarships and they can’t take the fact we have no coaching and down 42?? Ridiculous

Down in 106 row 1 they kept yelling at us and staring at me after I shouted something. They all know who I am but too scared to yell something back directly at me.

Seth has lost the team because this shouldn’t be happening

Why would you expect them not to clap back? They are college alpha males. You must’ve never sat in the first 5 rows of the student side.

Oh I have and that’s fun, but you’re yelling and harassing the opposite team not your OWN!

They literally quit tonight, and I hope Seth is fired into the moon tomorrow. He has OFFICIALLY lost the team, and firing him would do so much better.

After watching the first two possessions and having gone backwards due to stupid undisciplined penalties, I QUIT on this team, changed the channel, walked away from the TV and had a drink... it was over before it even started.

They were acting like everything was fine while it was 49-7. I mean I know they have a shit coach but there’s no need to respond to what we are saying. Good teams don’t do that, but of course we are undisciplined and awful so I should’ve expected this

No doubt all those guys KNOW they’re better than this, but can’t understand why they’re sucking so bad.   It’s frustrating as heck for them.   I have no idea what you were saying, but the last thing we need to do is take out the frustrations we have with Littrell on the players.  They’re a rudderless ship right now, what do you expect them to do?

Yeah some of those guys are just there, but if I’m sitting in the stands with 8 minutes left down 49, there is no reason to call us “fake fans” or being “negative”

I heard you almost got tossed last night because you can’t act like an adult, and decided to start yelling and running your mouth at our own team, who are kids that choose to come to our school. If you think they quit, then take your ass home.

Your anger is misguided. The players are not beyond being criticized. But, the blame for this mess rest solidly on our leadership for letting it devolve into a total meltdown.

Players come and go over a 4 or 5 year period. Leadership at the athletic department and university will come and go over a decade or so. But, true fans will remain for many decades (50+ years). And, telling them to stay home because feeling are getting hurt, won't fix our problems.

The whole football program quit last night. Now it is time to fire people.

I have no idea what you were saying, but if you were talking to the players, then that will be interpreted as criticizing them & their efforts & hard work.  Of course they’d take offense!

Players always take on their coach’s energy.  If he’s confident, they will be too, and it will show up on the scoreboard.  If the coach is just going through the motions, saying the same things over & over to the players, that will show up on the scoreboard too.  These guys are a rudderless ship right now.  They don’t deserve the criticism directed at them (well, maybe the hothead Murphy for his undisciplined play, but that’s about it).

I have no doubt these guys are putting in work & havent “checked out”.   They just need someone who can lead them.

Okay here’s the thing, nothing I said was directed towards them. I know better to say that kind of stuff, but was just saying stuff out loud in general, nothing about someone. When you’re behind the bench, and the score is 49-7, they’re gonna probably be able to hear what we’re saying. I try to be as clean as possible because of kids next to me.
Now I’m not saying this happened last night (because it didn’t) but in the past players on the sideline would be playing around and laughing like we aren’t down by 20+. Happens too often and you blame the coaching staff for lack of discipline.

Do you think Littrell is locked-in out there?

      Honest tactical question here…

      Yall can lay the blame of this all at the feet of the Pirate. Leach having some success at Texas Tech, at a time when A&M fell apart and Baylor was non-competitive, while nobody else but Texas was a Big 12 school, led to him getting some kind of legendary status. And his influence on TX HS football went off the charts, because it was “more fun for the kids”…and it basically destroyed the development of linemen on both sides of the ball and made defense a part of the game that just needs a stop or two per half. Hell, Art Briles said that out loud. Just get a stop or two. So now, we get the luxury of seeing a short yardage situation have the QB in shotgun, with a running back behind him, all about 4-5 yards behind the line of scrimmage, trying to get a yard. And then the coaches look exasperated when we don’t pick up the first down/TD, as we get tackled behind the line of scrimmage.

      WBB at Houston (11/24/24)

      I don't hate baseball, but what I don't like is people who seem to want something for nothing . A dream with out a plan is still just a dream and far I have seen no plan to fund a venue. I went to a health care seminar years ago where a woman who's husband was terminally ill. About 70% of a dying patients hospital bill is generated in the last 24 hours trying to keep them alive. She said that she didn't care what it cost as long as she didn't have to pay for it. Based upon lack of football and basketball support at UNT why would you think that baseball " would lure fans in the spring, spur donations, as well as tickets and and merchandise. "However in the future, which is now, universities will be forced to look at at profit and loss is the athletic department just like the rest of the universities departments. My definition is revenues less expenses equals profit or loss.Based upon your definition of revenue sports swimming would fall into that category if we charged dollar to attend a meet, passed around a collection plate, and sold swim caps. In summary UNT has only so many beans in the pot and to waste them on a very expense non revenue sport seems ridiculous.

      If it worked at UIW why not here?

      Ask some of the podcasters, they would say "Oh he has Texas ties", "Look what he did with Cam Ward"

      Honest tactical question here…

      I don't understand the reluctance to incorporate some short-yardage options from under center. You can still be air raid or whatever you want the other 90% of the time. It's so limiting to not have it.
