I saw enough after two games last season. We didn't even fire the worst DC in the country after the season was over. Now we HIGHLY embarrass the University of North Texas with this pathetic display on national TV and I want no more excuses. Fire this coaching staff and get serious - stop wasting money and resources on people who are horrible at their jobs. Enough is enough.

As I mentioned elsewhere I don't think you fire Morris at this point but the defensive coordinator has to go

Again I'm not saying we need to fire coach Morris but there's no need jerk reaction to the fact that we have a pathetic defense. We were the worst defense in football last year. A change at defensive

No accountability. Wasted resources. Disgusting.

There is emotionally charged knee jerking to a degree.  At the end of the year , if we are less than 7-5 and not in a bowl game then you look at the head coach.  If 7-5 or better then the head coach makes his own decisions based on assistant coaches’ performance.  It’s very possible we are 4-1 in 2 weeks

Morris fielded a top 10 offense last year.

The defense was atrocious, though. 

Fire Caponi today and give Morris a few specific requirements for a new DC.

Someone posted that Caponi is the highest paid G5 assistant, so there’s no reason we can’t get a proven DC from the Sun Belt who at least fields a middle of the pack defense. Even a middle of the pack defense paired with a top 10 offense would be a successful team overall.

It is in no way, shape, or form possible that this team and this defense is 4-1 in two weeks 😆

Not sure it is a knee jerk reaction. What has morris done to keep his job at this point? 

Get hired at a school who can't afford to buy out 3 years of his contract, particularly while said school continues to pay his predecessor?

He secured a 5 year, multi million dollar contract.  That's what he's done to keep his job.   Without a mega donor willing to cut a check, getting rid of him isn't in the realm of possibility.

We can and should boot caponi though.  Should have done it last year.  I haven't witnessed a more inept defense since Mendoza graced us with his services.

It’s not a knee jerk. We’re watching historically bad defense for the 2nd year in a row - like Ron Mendoza bad. That’s on Morris. Many of us have seen this movie before. Hard pass.

2-1…. Chill a tad. Defensive Coordinator could go and then see where we are at. We get blown out at home against Wyoming and we can revisit this.

Do we have to buy them out?  Why not just pretend they have had a season-ended injury or reassign them so they can’t do any more damage?  Next man up.  Let Cobbs take the HC reigns and anyone, really anyone, else take over defensive duties.  Can it really get any worse?

What’s our confidence level headed into the Wyoming game?

the piss poor recruiting is on Morris, three players not even on the field because of law issues, a freaking walk-on is #2 on depth chart for QB? Where are all of these transfers?

Smatresk fired the last guy for getting to a conference championship. He's not here to have to deal with the pile he left behind. WTF is UNT doing?

The same as always. Skating thru the season just hoping to get by

      Another NIL Coaching Casualty

      Please move if needed, posting here as it's related to NIL and is probably more applicable to football than basketball. Miami basketball head coach is resigning. The following are quotes that should be of concern to any fan but especially some of your blue blood programs. What happens when you can no longer outspend your peers so your legendary coaches leave? Saban was the most name worthy retirement but there's been plenty others and here's another big name leaving. NIL will be reeled in when the big money boosters lose their favorite coaches, no longer see the wins on their records, and see they can no longer just money-whip their way to success. From the Miami Herald: “At this point, after 53 years, I just didn’t feel that I could successfully navigate this whole new world that I was dealing with because my conversations were ridiculous with an agent saying to me, `Well, you can get involved [with a prospective player] if you’re willing to go to $1.1 million, and that would be the norm.” ... “What shocked me beyond belief was after we made the Final Four just 18 months ago, the very first time I met with the players, eight of them decided they were going to put their names in the portal and leave. “I said, `Don’t you like it here?’ They’d say, `I love Miami, it’s great.’ But the opportunity to make money someplace else created a situation that you have to begin to ask yourself, as a coach, what is this all about?’’ He added that he tried “every which way” to make things work, but “last year was a disaster”, and this year was not going well, either. He felt the new players were not buying in as transfers had in years prior." https://www.miamiherald.com/sports/college/acc/university-of-miami/article297597538.html

      Bringing in Poffenberger, signing Jimerson and Mestemaker returning, Cash probably realized he wasn’t going to get any playing time here soon. Best of luck to him.
