I never thought I'd ever agree with the "Drop Football" group but now I'm leaning that way. Put all our money into basketball and add baseball. I feel like I'm living in Bizzaro World!

Yup, this is why I have been saying to drop football. This is what we will be doing every single offseason. So let’s just drop it and pour our money into basketball and baseball.

Well looking like another rebuild year fellas.

Let’s just call this what it is.   We don’t have rebuild years.   We are a rebuild program.

Lol has it ever been this bad where majority of our stars/starters leave like this? At this rate?

Nope. Say what you will about Littrell but he always seemed to keep the core together.

College Football really doing a great job of making fans lose interest. NIL has and will continue to destroy the sport, especially for the G5

QB KEN SEALS 

Played in the SEC for 4 years. 2 years of eligibility left due to Covid year and injury redshirt season. Wants to come home and play his final two years.

This sport just isn’t fun anymore. It’s exhausting. Why invest in this mess???

[Jdawg48]

Im down to pour all money into basketball.

 

Who do you think we target for QB?

Make it happen!  Aren't you somewhat-close to his family?   If there's interest, please reach out and contact the coaching staff ASAP.

[Old Denton]

And the NCAA can easily do something:

1 - ONE free transfer for underclassmen, period.  Anything else requires sit-out year.  No fake medical/family transfer BS.

2 - all COVID-era freebies (extra year, etc) terminate after the 2023-2024 academic year.

3 - An additional free graduate transfer allowed, provided the player has spent 2 or more years at the current school.

Make it effective August 1, 2024.

Yes I am. Ken is very interested. Will be home this Sunday. I’m making calls.

I can't really give this enough "Thanks" upvotes, but you definitely got one from me.

Bring back Seth Littrell. If you want to enter the transfer portal, you have to beat him in a 1 on 1 wrestling match first. Our team retention would be through the roof

Yall remember when the Light The Tower Collective had this big announcement that was pushed today and still hasn’t came out? Yeah, seems they crapping the bed behind the scenes. 

Put RV in charge....first dumb move.

Light the Tower has been a big disappointment.  Putting RV in charge was in hindsight a mistake.  Now we’ve farted around and lost our best player.  What a mess.

Let's call it a "stepping stone program"

When the donors that were responsible for an overwhelming amount of that collective's seed money want him to run it, then he runs it.   It's their money, they can choose who they want to oversee it.   

He wasn't appointed by anyone at UNT.   The school is not able to be a part of it.   

It is what it is.

I would be interested

I'm an exhausted fan, but I keep spinning nonetheless.

[GMG_Dallas]

If we're being honest, this sucks but everybody is going through this, even the huge programs. Ohio State lost their QB as did other big programs. Looking at our competitors, UTSA just lost the AAC Defensive Player of the Year to the portal. Some guys will transfer elsewhere to ride the bench and some guys will need a home. It's up to our coaches to beat out the other AAC schools for their portal targets.

It looks like in a few years the UNT Hall of Fame will run out of athletes to nominate. 

[MeanGreenTexan]

If Morris can land Seals (as much as I love what Rogers did for us this year, he was amazing), I'd say we upgraded.

[GMG_Dallas]

And I'm going to add, nobody thought Rogers would do what he did. Looking at his ULM stats, there was absolutely zero way to predict his success this year. I'm confident the staff will get a transfer (maybe the local kid from Vanderbilt) and we can have just as potent of an offense next year. I'm more worried about the defense and offensive line.
