Marshall at Appalachian St. 

Game sold out last July. 
 

Two Sun Belt teams. 
 

North Texas is not a DI football program. 

It's so silly to compare Boone to Denton.

App State is not like other G5s. By your logic I guess there are zero G5 DI football programs in the state of Texas.

UNT has 110 years of football history with a 47K in student body in 2023.  Hundred thousands in alumni and we only came up with 17,354 at out home game with an instate rival on a perfect football weather day. 

Out of those 110 years how many years did North Texas have a winning record. The answer to that is the reason why we can’t fill a stadium. Since 1953 North Texas has had 27 winning seasons ( with a lot of 6-5 seasons) 

Last bowl victory was in 2002 

Last conference championship 2004

I don’t know where you think these fans are hiding when we haven’t had reasons to come to games.

Last bowl victory was in 2011 season.

I would love to be a fly on the wall during the hiring process of a UNT football coach.  I’m talking about the selection process of candidates to interview as well as the interview of each head coach candidate.  I wonder how good or bad we really are.

Well recently, Mac was a big mistake. Littrell was a big mistake. Foolish one sided contracts were big mistakes. 

We lost what, 10 years of building a strong program by foolish, inept decisions by our administrators?

If every coaching hire we make ends up being a "big mistake," maybe the problem(s) is something bigger than the coaching hires themselves.

True! Denton county has a population of 941k+ and is a 40 minute drive from hundreds of entertainment options. Boone is in Watagua county with a population 54k+ and is a two hour drive from Charlotte with about a quarter of the entertainment options. Going to a game is one of very few choices for a fall day in Boone! In Denton, there are a lot more options. 
 

Saying that’s an “excuse” is like saying the rotation of the Earth is just an excuse for the sun not rising in the west!

Ironically enough, 9 is also the average number of teeth had by those 34,057 people.

And like it or not, those are the type of people who buy tickets and support football teams. 
 

App St. and UNT attract vastly different types of students. Most students who are attracted to UNT are opposed to any outwardly display of testosterone. 
 

As said in previous posts by others, you can’t force somebody to like football, and this school attracts far too many students that hate sports.

Ok who wasn’t a mistake football wise and who would you have hired that was available?

      UTSA/Memphis game

      Tech spiraled out of control so fast it's hard to pinpoint what exactly could have done better lol... against Memphis, there were just poor coaching decisions coupled with poor execution on those poor decisions. It sucks to look back on because not only do we practically give teams the ball in scoring position but we also blatantly leave points on the field. Memphis comes to mind with the 4th down attempt from our 41 (who does that in 2nd quarter) and the 4th down attempt from their 29 in the 3rd. That's a 10 point swing right there off coaching decisions assuming we make the field goal and the defense gets a stop. Those may seem like tall tasks but that 42 yard Memphis TD was their last score until 33 seconds left in the 3rd and our kicker hasn't missed since the Tech game.

      Goal Post Alert

      In all seriousness, I watched South Carolina roar the field after taking down A&M tonight, and thought, “This is what our fanbase needs.” SMU had apparently not beaten a ranked team at home in like 60 years or something crazy like that! Meanwhile we are poised to beat our second undefeated top 20 ranked team in a span of a few years and when this happens it needs to be celebrated! Who says cool sports things don’t happen in Denton, freaking Texas! Goal posts come down, get marched out and get tossed into the pond or placed on the hill like a trophy! 🏆 how instagrammable! Photos for the Maniacs, Talons and Infantry to use to recruit 2025 members and beyond. I’m all about derailing Army’s quest for the playoffs, because even if Boise loses they ain’t jumping 8 spots and keeping out their Heisman stud running back. Plus we need this win. It’s time to crush another undefeated dream. Most importantly we need a W. For those who think this puts too much pressure on the team to deliver a W against a stout team with a rested quarterback. It’s top level football. There are no guarantees but we all need to be prepared. Talons Up! GMG
