Why shouldn't North Texas look at those fact patterns and think it couldn't do better than 7-7?

"I don't know any reason that we can't. This is a team that I just watched compete with Boise State at a very high level this past weekend," Morris said. "The pieces are in place right now, we're going to have to add a couple here and there to continue to develop and grow these kids. This is not a program that's broken. I just think it needs a little shot in the arm. I've been in the American (as a Houston assistant for two years). I know what the talent pool in that conference looks like and I know what we have on our roster, and I think that we can get to the top of that conference extremely fast."

He’s absolutely right.   Just gotta hope he’s the right guy & the staff he’s assembling is the right one.  The cupboard is stocked.  Get to the top “extremely fast”.   That’s the expectation.

I believe he is right. My only concern is the NIL dollars and the impact it will have on the AAC. Can Roberts go to SMU and make $75,000 a year? I don't know how we can compete against that type of player benefit.

Well, it looks like we have the football program going in the right direction, now we just need to get the NIL out of concert mode and moving in the right direction.
