Too many of you are on the fence

[Jonnyeagle]

I just want to state for the record and in perpetuity that I am 100% behind Eric Morris and this Mean Green football program.  A fair amount of you guys seem to be on the fence.  I think we should get behind him.  The guy just oozes enthusiasm and he is exactly what we need at this time.  There are no excuses or pity parties with Morris!

I can root for some one and “be behind him and the program” and also be realistic. We are moving into a tougher conference (after never winning a title in our previous conference) and we have a new coach and new systems. It’s not unreasonable to think it will take a year jell. Yet I do still think we can pull off a 6-6 year which would be a good first step under Morris. 2024 and beyond I’ll expect better results

I like Morris a lot. To me he comes with similar or more (head coaching) experience as Littrell, but doesn't have the personality of a wet noodle.

If I'm "on the fence" about anything, is what the team is gonna look like in the fall. Spring was a nice teaser, but the offense looked way too anemic for a guy who's a Leach protégé. At this point we just have to wait and see. That being said, I have hope for the first time in years. Feels similar to when we hired Wren: Morris feels like a guy who talks the talk and walks the walk. Let's just hope it translates to wins.

Fence ?  The only “fence” I see is the one dividing those that support North Texas football and those that don’t.   If you do, buy season tickets and get to the games.  No excuses.  Attend your school’s football games.  On the other side of the “fence” is those that don’t support North Texas football.  So what are you non-supporters even doing here ?

GO MEAN GREEN

What do you constitute as "getting behind him?"

[Mean Green 93-98]

What does this even mean?  Everyone here 100% wants him to win and be successful during his coaching tenure at North Texas.  At the same time, no one here is 100% sure he is the answer.  But he is a new coach, so he gets a honeymoon period at the very least.  And he is getting resources like no North Texas coach before him.  So let's just quit the pity parties and excuses that this thread seems to imply.  Go Coach Morris, and Go Mean Green!

[Dannymacfan]

Of course we are all behind him.  But that being said, he needs to produce.  And he even said that he didn't see this as a complete rebuild and we had some good players already here.

My expectations are to make a bowl game (6-6 or 7-5)and possibly win it. We were very close to doing that last year. They need to move forward and seize the moment.

La Tech, FIU, ACU, Navy, Temple, and Tulsa are all winnable. UAB, Cal, and Memphis are toss ups. Tulane, UTSA, and SMU are going to be difficult.

[Jonnyeagle]

Behind him 120 percent!

Behind him and his staff. I believe they will do an excellent job in the future. However, if you want to ignore the talent a team like SMU can buy and act like it shouldn't make a difference, then your kidding yourself.

I am behind Coach Morris more than any other hire we have made. When the NIL gets straightened out, I think he will really excel. 

[Big Z]

Two things I hate about the summer time

1. The Texas Heat

2. Not having anything to watch UNT sports related 

But I believe Eric Morris can get the job done and we can go bowling again this upcoming season! 

GMG!

Yes.  I have also been really impressed with this staff's ability to use social media and connections at the high school level.  In just the little time since being hired it seems so far ahead of what we saw with Seth & Co.

I may not want to know the answer to this.

I just hope we are respectable this up coming season.  We are stepping up to better league, hope we are ready.  Morris second year conference championship lol
