Just out of curiosity, if given the choice which would you pick? Which would be more in-demand across the country if they hit the market at the same time? I’m not advocating for one or the other, just want to see which you would choose based on their collegiate resume. It is possible GJ Kinne wanted the JMU guy more than Chandler. It is also possible that Chandler Morris would rather attend North Texas than SWTSU-SM.

According to (what should be) an unbiased source, Jordan McCloud is the 115th-ranked transfer (just behind Chandler Rogers), while Chandler Morris is ranked #467: https://www.on3.com/transfer-portal/industry/football/2024/?position=qb

That's not to say there aren't coaches who would take Morris over McCloud, there may well be.

Pavia Morris should have taken those nil deals and we shouldn't burn any NIL money on an oft injured player when we are poor. It just seems like a UNT move to misallocate NIL funds. I don't know

The qualifier in () is maddening. This kind of mindset is why NT fans should never expect anything more.  A 9-win season every once in a while, sandwiched between a bunch of 5 or 6-win seasons (o

Give me one reasonable target you would have rather us signed? Signing a QB that won starting job in the Big 12 2 years in a row and has two years of eligibilty seems like a pretty good win to me

Thank you for the well thought out response.

McCloud had grade issues according to people from JMU. This is part of why he ended up at the academic powerhouse Texas State.

There was a reason McCloud was still availible in almost March when he jumped in the portal in December. Confernce POY QB don't just hang around.

I’ll have none of that nonsense!!!

 

Chandler Morris was 100% never truly committed to North Texas (though there’s zero evidence to back this up), and was 100% headed to Texas State as a way to secure his father’s commitment as a coach (though there’s zero evidence to back this up), and he 100% only stayed committed to North Texas when Texas State got the guy they wanted all along who had been available  in the portal for three months (though there’s zero evidence to back this up).

Fun Fact about Jordan McCloud. His brother Ray-Ray McCloud has been in the NFL since 2018 but they're only 3 years apart. This grown man (Jordan) will be 25 in November and has been in college since 2018, the same year his brother was drafted. Hopefully one day college sports will mostly be played by college-aged kids again. Seven years in college is too damn much.

Edit to add: since 2018, his brother Ray-Ray has played for 4 different NFL teams (Bills, Panthers, Steelers, 49ers). With Jordan going to Texas State, he will now be on his 4th different FBS team since 2018 (South Florida, Arizona, James Madison, Texas State).

Doesn’t strike me as a pair of men that want to grow where they are planted.

A classic police procedural, police chief solo though.

      So sick of the crap this football program slings us

      We do alright with the North Texas chant sometimes, we just need to make it a staple and I think people will do it.

      State fans showed up because they rightfully expected to win in this game. If the AD thinks they're going to depend on people to show up just cause NT has a team there, they are dead wrong. There are a few, but there are many many more who will not show up when they don't think their team will win. There are too many obligations and opportunities to devote precious time and money watching a team lose.

      After Morris and Sheffield transferred, how many here were actually expecting to win? Many of us were just hoping TXST didn't handle us like they did UTSA this year or Rice in last year's First Responder Bowl. Sure, it's the head coach's job to have his team ready to play and in position to win regardless of the adversity faced, but it's still incredible the performance Mestemaker had. Tonight was better than any game C. Morris has had since Memphis. Coastal Carolina lost their starting QB to the portal and got dog walked in their bowl game against UTSA in their own building. Yes, the loss increases our bowl futility streak to an active high, and it sucks to lose to an intrastate program in an inferior conference, but that shouldn't take away from Drew's game. The biggest disappointment to me was how badly we were outnumbered by TXST fans. We went from packing the lower level of the Cotton Bowl to being matched ON OUR OWN SIDE. Like our team, our fans also struggle to wear green. However, there should be optimism surrounding next season. Eric made a poor hire with his first DC obviously, but made the tough (but right) call in getting rid of him. Next year's presumed starter will be in his last year of eligibility, so no losing another 4000 yard passed before the bowl game. If we struggle to another 6/7-win season and bowl loss with next year's schedule, I think Eric's seat should be pretty hot again.

      So a lot of you think that NT is not deserving of your valuable fandom. I actually was proud of the team that continue to battle with a completely revamped lineup including a completely untested QB. Yeah and spare me the low expectations accusations that are usually leveled at anyone that dares to not rave and rant about a loss.
