I love UNT, but it’s quite confusing on why people expect this team to just magically become a powerhouse seemingly overnight. Why is there some expectation for Morris to have this team as a NY6 squad when he just got here? Us fans need to have patience. I’m not trying to beat down the university…but what makes people believe we’re the premier landing spot now after years of middling? This whole thing can’t/wont be built over night

Problem is that since our last conference championship patience has been preached here for most of the last 20 years.  Meanwhile programs have started or restarted from scratch and kicked our ass.  He should be going into his 3rd season here not his second because leadership was patient. 🤷🏽‍♂️

Any word on Caponi hitting the transfer portal?

I'm just happy all these players have the freedom to make their own decisions and if financial windfall is their motivation for the hard work and sacrifice they've put in for years, well, they've earn

Several posters on this board should be banned for constantly posting things about other schools, and many posts should be taken down. However, getting clicks is the name of the game, and even though this board is supposed to be about the Mean Green, clicks mean even more. I think you would be very hard-pressed to find another College Board where the people who run the board allow another school's fans to come on and post as much as is allowed here. So before you comment about my comment about clicks meaning more, think about that.

If they're leaving because they didn't buy into Morris, the reasoning could be that he's sticking with Caponi and the defense is hot garbage and will continue to be hot garbage so why bother?

Yes this part is really scary to me.  As an offensive player hoping to put up numbers that helps my team win it is going to be a hard sell to get me to come to a team with returning DC that led the worst defense FBS.  To me retaining Caponi says the program is not serious about winning.🤷🏽‍♂️  At this point I am going in expecting the record even be worse next year with a mid-season demotion/dismissing of Caponi.  I hope us loyal few continue to support tge program in spite of that.  I have one wish for next season; beat UTSA.

Its more than $3k/month.  Closer to $4k with escalators built in to account for inflation.

That's also just the money coming from The Boulevard Collective.  Most of the non millionaire/billionaire set (myself included) contribute to Pony Sports DTX for targeted transfers and current roster retention.  We're north of $1m annually on that front.

Using your weekly allowance from daddy to fund the SMU NIL. How thoughtful

I just don’t believe the defense will be worse than last year.  
-another year in the strength program

-more familiarity with the defense 

-added recruits/transfers (so far…some pieces will likely come in later)

-our 2nd leading tackler is in the TP and he has one D1 offer. The young guys behind him will take that next step this defense requires.

Both parents were public school teachers.  Pretty sure my weekly allowance was a reminder to graduate early 🙂

Knowingly attends school with reputation of having trustfund kids as student population...  Gets triggered when someone applies that stereotype to you.    ...just roll with it bro.  You did well to attend SMU, regardless of financial situation.

One...or all of the members of the BoR are probably clients of his mom...or dad.

Not really.  I just don't get the infatuation you and a few other smuT fans have with North Texas and our board.  We aren't in the same conference since you all ran away, we won't be playing each other in the future, so I don't understand why you and your cohorts keep showing up.  

It's odd, isn't it.  A million years ago when I was an undergrad, we'd have weekend parties, and these friends/people I knew at SMU always wanted to come to our parties. So we'd say sure and they'd show up and be the last ones to leave (finally). Eventually I drove down to one of theirs and then understood why they always came to Denton.

      And camps. Just from Twitter, people claim it’s highly attended, organized, and well run. At the very least, it gets kids on campus and further develops a relationship with the kid/families/coaches. He’s been a positive for UNT.

      Oregon State final thoughts -- game presentation, etc

      Unfortunately, I feel like pep bands all over the country are largely getting sidelined for the DJ music and "Let's make some noise!" kinda stuff. It's definitely not unique to NT.

      Oregon State final thoughts -- game presentation, etc

      Football season ticket holder here that normally starts going to b-ball games once the calendar flips to the new year & my schedule opens up. But since UNT is a #basketballschool now, starting earlier this year. First off, anyone agree with this assessment? When I go to football games I'm just waiting for the proverbial kick to the nuts in the second half. East Carolina was a perfect microcosm of this. Oh look! We're up 21-0!! What are we going to do to blow it? And sure enough, we do. Over and over again. With basketball, I feel the exact opposite. Whether it's Minnesota, Oregon State, etc, what are we going to do to win it? And more times than not, we do!! Clutch, clutch, clutch. Well done team! I love it. Really liked the game presentation too. The only thing I've noticed is it seems the pep band is getting less "air time" if that makes sense at the expense of giving the hype guy more exposure. Kinda an ass-whip if you ask me. "SOMEBODY MAKE SOME NOOIISE!!!!!", "EVERONE SCREAM HELL YEAH!!!!". We can be loud on our own without being told, thank you very much. It s almost like a warm-up act before he heads down to Dallas for his 2nd job at Baby Dolls. With that solid radio DJ voice he can then bark out "EVERYONE SCREAM HELL YEAH!! AND GIVE IT UP FOR DESTINY ON THE MAIN STAGE!!!!". Don't act like you don't know what I'm talking about there. 🤣🤣 Happy Thanksgiving all and Go Mean Green!

      The dislike for Coach O is incredible and this just shows what type of fans we truly have. His job is to get interaction with high school players and coaches and he's done a better job of that than anyone in the history of this school. His job is to get them looking at us and willing to talk to the school and that is happening.
