Mattress Mack can go stuff a mattress!   He has done nothing for NT since holding it hostage and requiring the practice fields be named for his likewise crony friend DD.

I like how the board freaked out and an hour later he retracted his statement.

You'd think people would have enough sense to not overreact until something official is made. Get a hold of yourselves people.

For sure.  I know it has been a tough couple of weeks for you guys for sure.  We had Coach Lashlee all set up and contracted in a very short period of time so it was a little smoother sailing for us.  Looks like you guys are still trying to identify someone who is interested.  One good thing is I like seeing that you are interested in Garrett Riley.  He was just an assistant for us but seemed to be a nice guy.  Not sure he would be interested in the UNT job but it doesn't hurt to try.

Why didn't you guys try to keep him at HC? Seems strange. Then again, maybe he wasn't interested. He seems to be doing pretty good now.

Come on, man. If you’re going to trash talk, you can do better than this. 
 

For example, you could talk about how a program that bragged about having “more money than God” all summer finished fourth in their conference. 
 

Or, perhaps, you could even point out how a coach left the same school with all those resources to join the cross town rival and took his new squad to the playoff in year one.

Perry was a “favor” interview, just like Marion at Texas was at Tulsa…

 

Everything I have heard has been centered on one guy on the list, and so at this point I am sticking with my prediction of Fuentes.

Well, of this lot, Garrett Riley is #1, but I do not get why Graham Harrell is not on the list

This was a list put out by a writer that also stated he heard Perry was the leading candidate. Maybe he was but maybe he wasn’t, but that has now proven to be incorrect. I take each published list with a grain of salt. Never heard of Littrell when he was hired, and I kind of expect a similar reaction this time.

can you give us a hint on the one guy,  like maybe what the first letter of his last name.  Or we can play wheel of fortune since blackjack is kicking my ass.

Feels like it's been unnecessarily brutal lately, right?

Can't say I'm surprised, although I'm not disappointed. Keeler was already 63 and while I'd love to have a coach with his record, I'd rather a coach with roughly his record, but who could potentially be here for 15-20 years if we can keep him.

I can definitely live with that.

Really sorry to hear this.  His age was the one drawback.  Then again, he may coach another ten years.  

How reliable of a source in Mike Craven.  (educated at utsa)

I questioned Craven a lot, especially on his takes regarding specific coaching rumors and his views on the firing of Littrell because he is a UTSA alum, but he is pretty on the ball about stuff like this.

However, Knight could not be offered the job until a state-mandated 10-day posting period had expired. According to Texas state law, open positions at state schools and universities must be posted for a minimum of 10 days before a hire can be made.

https://www.espn.com/ncb/news/2001/0307/1137811.html

The article above is over 20 years old but I wasn't able to find anything that says the Texas law has changed since. So it appears the required 10-day posting period is what is holding everything up. Hopefully we already have a handshake deal in place with Fuente and we're just running the clock out by "interviewing" additional candidates.

Well, I assume this means K.C.Keeler has been told he is not getting the job.  Does it mean we are down to three candidates or have they finally settled on ONE??

Fuente or one of the TCU coordinators.

      Stop Blaming Athletes and the NCAA for Ruining College Football

      NIL was a horrible idea that continues to destroy competition in sports I don't see how anyone blames this mess on the athletes. Sure they are going to do what is best for them, perfectly understandable. The NCAA should fight NIL, but apparently the leadership is a lot more interested in protecting the status quo and players than to listening to the fans.

      Vito kicking UNT in the nuts again

      I don’t believe Vito hates UNT. Why should he sugar-coat the truth in his articles? Just win will help. I bet Vito hates participation trophies. Good job Brett!

      Vito kicking UNT in the nuts again

      Vito is lost in sports writer hell. He lives by the standard that it is the job of sport writer to be neutral. I imagine he is as tired of covering NT as a lot of NT fans are tired of his coverage. He is lucky in a way that the DRC is still one of the few newspapers that still exist. He has won a lot of awards, not only because he is a competent writer; but there is little competition.

      2025 Projected Depth Chart

      I know this is still subject to change, but with a lot of transfers signed I figure we have enough to get a pretty good idea on what our depth chart will look like next year. This includes all scholarship players and walkons who are in the depth chart. Did my best guess based on Sam Houston’s positions listed on their defensive depth chart (12 spots based on the packages) and where our guys were listed, as well as their guys who we are bringing over. Took some best guesses with guys who weren’t in the two deep/newcomers. Save your comments about how the transfer portal sucks and this could change so much between now, etc. That was always the case this many months out, but we have a pretty good idea based on the guys who actually play or we are bringing in. The bottom of the depth chart guys leaving is expected but doesn’t really change things.
