I think it was about 1966 when Tom Landry & his coaching staff thought Murchison & GM Tex Schramm were  going to fire all of them.  Surprise, surprise, surprise! Instead, Landry got a 10 year contract to keep building the Cowboy’s fortunes.

In 1965, 1966 & 1967, the Texas Longhorns under Darrell Royal had what (probably) their Board of Regents didn’t think measured up to UT standard & word was there was a move to fire DKR.  The next season the Horns with DKR started a college football record-breaking win streak with their new wishbone offense.
In 1976, the Mean Green “almost” (I hate that word) beat DKR & Earl Campbell’s Texas Longhorns. •••That would be Royal’s last year as UT’s head football coach.  He remained as the AD.      
        
Seth Littrell?  TBD….     
A successful 2022 season will all but guarantee a 4-5 year extension because a 2 year extension would all but destroy our recruiting the next 2 years & beyond.  Heck! UTSA’s head coach already has a set speech when it comes to UNT.  Word on the street is negative  recruiting against North Texas is his forte’.  He is a smooth operator.  Go on now—“All their facilities; they’ve been playing football a 100 years; all their wealthy donors, etc, etc, etc•••
 OH THE HUMANITY!

This below is what you get in front of the TV cameras. Same words probably “mysteriously” change 180 degrees in a  blue chip recruits living room.

If you listen Traylors "compliments" for UNT are about as backhanded as can be. I know we have three game until the potential rematch, but I hope the coaches are putting together a game plan to open up the run.

The next question was the clock mess at the end of the first half. I thought his excuse was hilarious.

Noble concept, but run east and west designed plays if inside zone doesn't work. Then, come back to IZ. But if they're going to neglect pass defense, it'll be put up or shut up time for Aune. Better throw 4 bills.

Hmmm? Let’s see if all those psychology courses I took at North Texas while Dr. Phil was even a UNT student helps me with this Trailor profile:

👍👍And El Paso🦅Eagle, good to see you picked up on his back-handed comments, too.  You know the one like “They’ve been playing football a 100 years?” Ouch!😆 
 ••• Trailor has an ego bigger than the Lone Star State. He sounds so full of himself with bullshit that comes oozing out of his ears even probably in the middle of church.😳 Contain yourself, man!  There is a time & place. 
 ••• 18 year olds sitting in their home living rooms with mama are the perfect target for Brother🧡Love aka Coach Miracle Man!  He truly is a Texas High School Coach phenomena—truly!  Texas mamas all over will worship at his feet & in his presence; especially when he tells their sons how lucky 🍀 they will be to be under his miracle-making tutelage.  Kinda’ all reminds me & makes me want to quote what the warden said in that prison movie••••••”IT’S A MIRACLE!” 😳
•••The utsa coach recently said “no one had ever beat… “him”…as bad as Littrell & North Texas did last year.  🤔OK, did “him” actually play in that game?  I guess the cold rain that day clouded my glasses & I must have missed it.
•••Coach Miracle Man’s ego could cause him to crash & self-destruct in time if he’s not careful. He will eventually wonder why in hell did he ever sign a long drawn out 10 year contract with a G5 start-up school.  
You see, Brother Love & His Salvation Show was really meant to be at a school with a stadium that seats at least 100,000!  (30,000 fans audiences will just not be large enough).  

•••Most of his present players are still from his predecessor’s recruiting including their present QB who seems like he’s been in SA as long as the school’s been playing football.  Oh! I get it!  QB Frank wants to beat Austin Aune’s record-breaking age 29?  What a competitor!  

Some of you on GMG need to understand that you are taking yourselves way too serious.
Don’t take 50 years following all this before you know that. Full disclosure:  Some of us did just that. 
 

GMG!

      Volleyball coach released

      I recall seeing two MBB games in the Snake Pit. I believe there was some sort of conflict in the Super Pit. But they were an absolute blast to watch. Great fan support, seats right down to the court, noisy as hell. If it is usable, I think that venue would be great for volleyball and I would support WBB there also. GMG

      tonight 11/25 - UNT v. Oregon State ; Memphis v. UCONN (Maui...1.30p CST if you're cutting out of work this week...Colorado/Michigan State on their side of the bracket...UNC, Iowa State, Dayton, Auburn round out the field) ; ULL v. UAB ; High Point v. Old Dominion ; McNeese v. Liberty 11/26 - Memphis v. Colorado/Michigan State ; Tulane v. Wyoming (I guess?) 11/27 - Memphis game 3 ; Charlotte v. The Fighting John Buggs 11/28 - UNT v. UNI ; Utah State v. St. Bonaventure ; Wichita State v. Minnesota that Thanksgiving slate looking a lot more entertaining that the NFL

      Anyone else still rooting for Eric Morris?

      We have an over $50M a year athletics budget. Significantly more than FAU and Charlotte who are pulling the plug on their failed year 2 coaching experiments. Are you saying we’re not capable of doing what these peers do? It’s a matter of will, not resources.

      When The Portal Opens

      I’m predicting a lot of change. JayD and Miles mentioned it on their podcast, keep a few of our returners on defense and hope the new DC brings some of his current players. Not sure what we do on offense. Need to keep C4 to try and help recruit some players from the portal. Build some OL depth.

      Around the League / UNT Opponents

      FAU - ended up 1-2 in their tourney...beat Oklahoma State, then fell to Drake and a two-point loss to Seton Hall in the third place game. FAU is just 4-4 on the season, but none of those games look like bad losses. they're blending in a new coach with nearly an entirely new roster...they've 8 dudes who can legit give you double-figures scoring every night, so they're still gonna be scary by the time conference play gets here. Memphis - beat a good San Francisco team and open the Maui Invitational tonight with #2 UCONN Wichita State - ran through St. Louis. Shockers seem to be back to normal Utah State - beat Iowa 77-69 to move to 6-0. it's 50/50 we play USU or get also now 6-0 St. Bonaventure at the NIT Tip-Off after our game with UNI Temple - lost a close game to Florida State, but came back to beat UMASS High Point - lost to Missouri State
