This shows a commitment by the administration to maintaining a quality athletic program in all sports, I am a little surprised but I believe Wren leaving sped up the timetable and I believe they already have a short list and I would not be surprised if SL’s replacement is announced Monday or Tuesday.   If not they might have really jumped the gun.

If this is true, I genuinely wish him the best.    He was no longer the answer for moving us forward, but he was a good man and I thank him for his efforts while here.

I’ve been saying this needed to happen….but I’m not going to jump up and down and celebrate. I’ve always said I seriously liked Littrell personally. He got us out of the mess we were in. He showed us

Gotta wonder how this will play right before the bowl game. Does firing him right before this help our chances? Can't be so sure... 

It doesn't really matter. The last game was the one we needed/wanted. The bowl games are a vacation, if it isn't one for the playoff. The big game was the conference championship.

Why did they have to do this on Sunday night?  
 

This news makes me want to go drink and celebrate new beginnings for UNT football but I have to work tomorrow. 😓

I'm shocked. I was dead wrong on this. We don't have an AD... I can't believe we'd hire another HFC and saddle a new AD with him, but I guess we've done it before... though at least RV was still AD when he hired Seth. Hiring season is already on the back end though, so I can't imagine we hire the AD first, right? Does this mean it's Mosley then? Lots and lots of questions. 

It could be that Wren, Jared and Neil have agreed that Jared will be promoted and have already agreed on a coach.

That seems to be the only thing that makes any logical sense in the timing here

That would be an interesting situation.

I am stunned by this given we have no AD. I thought for sure they would ride this out with Littrell.

I'd like to second what others are saying. Thank you, Seth. 

A very good coach, and in my estimation he will get a chance at a P5 job one day. But it was time to try something new.

Seth did a lot of good and elevated us to a program that is no longer satisfied to just get to bowls. In a way, his success partially caused his failure if that makes sense...

Well I hope the first thing the new coach says that “Hit 6” is no longer acceptable around here!

Best of luck to him in the future. Seth seems like a good guy, someone you'd like to have a beer with & talk ball. He did some good things here but it was definitely time for a change.

      Why are we doing this?

      First Fajitagate, then this?!? What next? No wonder we lost Ross Hodge. This program isn't serious.

      I seem to recall…

      I respect y'all sentiments about the unfairness of the system, but clearly none of you are really aware of the money involved. SMU has some crazy billionaires. But those couple big spenders are necessary because they have few alumni. With proper organization and motivation, UNT COULD definitely be in the #25-#50 spend range no question. Totally doable. Not top 10.... but guess what: those teams already had a huge payroll. NIL just makes it above the table and more democratic. UNT's athletic department and university administration is not totally bought in. I wouldn't give them NIL money either. They aren't in it to win. But if they change their mind, you'll find more NIL available. The donors at SMU are spending because the school is now in it to win. If we had the university governance we did in 2005, they wouldn't be spending, I assure you.
