It's so weird... When you expect to win, the schedule suddenly becomes "easy".   This, most-certainly, has not been the case for very long around here.

Seth Littrell's tenure elevated our expectations.   That's a good thing!  Prior to Littrell's first 3 years, our (the fans') expectations were not nearly as high.  I mean, #Hit6 was a thing for crying out loud.
So, finishing 6-6 versus basically the same schedules as Dodge & McCarney was considered a failure for Littrell's final 3 seasons.  That's a good thing!
Compare that to finishing 7-5 with a HoD Bowl win in 2013, which is considered by fans as the greatest season UNT football has had since coming back from 1AA (this is a sad reality).

Do you not see the difference in fans' expectations from 1995-2015 (pre-Littrell's successes) VS 2019-2023 (post-Littrell's successes)?   If yes, who would you say is responsible for those raised expectations?    If no, and you think we, as fans, would still consider 7-5 a "GOAT" season, I can't help you.

And to clarify/reiterate, I don't think he should still be here.  It was time for him to go, as his tenure had grown stale.

I agree with your point but we were 9-4 in 2013.  Close (and avoidable) losses to Ohio and Tulane that year kept us from a 10 or 11 win season.  Should’ve beat UTSA too so that could’ve easily been a 12 win season with the only loss to Georgia who we actually hung with until late.
