Why are people happy with being 500.  It not just the 500 that bothers most of us it the blow outs in the OCC game and championship game.

We are leaving CUSA and the road is going to get a lot tougher for us. 

The way I see it, we saved Seth from leaving here with a losing record.  No one believes he stood a chance in the bowl game, as his record has shown.  And if we kept him around that long, he would have left here with a losing record.  We did him a favor since he doesn't have to put a losing record on his CV.

So when DD was fired we got money for the practice fields to be renamed. Maybe one of the boosters steps up for Seth?

I read Mattress Mack made a ton of money betting on the Astros this year. Maybe he will throw some our way.

A more important question...If the next coach beats $mut, will you forgive his past sins?

Also, can we please define where this mysterious "corner" is that programs keep trying to turn?

UNT needs to fire the next coach.  They need to get out ahead this approaching coaching fiasco.

Everyone knows that the coach who replaces him will be the answer to our dreams.  

GO MEAN GREEN

Haha, thank you for this laugh.

Good point.  Having a 500 record is an accomplishment judging by the past 44 years.

A little perspective, a sense of ironic humor, and some booze helps.

It's somewhere on Fry street.  I found it a few times, but never could remember where it was then next morning.

NT got money from Mattress man despite DD getting fired.  He had already announced his donation before DD basically fired himself, and only made good on his promise after NT promised to name a practice field after Dickey. 

A way to save face I guess and still stick it to NT a little.

I’m not going to say I’d be happy at .500, but if we were competing for conference titles and NOT getting blown out 3-4 times a year I could sure be more accepting of it.

Dude can go 2-10 next season if one of those is against Southern Millionaires, I'll chalk it up as a rebuilding year.

Agreed. He hasn’t won a single meaningful game for us yet! NOT ONE DAMN BOWL GAME OR CHAMPIONSHIP!! Let that sink in. We fired Seth for exactly the same reason. Time for a change. Don’t even have to pay for a buyout if we shitcan him before he is hired.

Joking aside, I always think about this when we do have a coaching change.

The new guy arrives with his beaming and proud family and there are hugs for all.  We have speeches about how Coach X is the right man for the job and how they are going to turn this ship around. Except they don't. And the cycle repeats.

While I am still vertical, I really do hope the next man is the one.

Spot on.  

Either you are a profit, a seer of the future, or you're as old as I am.

Don’t count on it.  He does not like us. Mac dropped by to visit him at his store in Houston and didn’t get a very warm welcome.

I really wanted Seth to get hired away to break the cycle.

McCarney or McCasland?

McCarney.  Heard him talking about it at a coach’s show at Rudy’s (not as part of the show btw, he was telling some people about it.)
