He's young and still a little uncomfortable speaking in front of crowds and cameras. That will improve with experience.
In the meantime he's a damn fine young coach, winning and rebuilding as his entire roster has to be rebuilt every season due to the the transfer portal and NIL.
In the meantime, just count our blessings. He may not turn out to be God's Gift to North Texas coaching but he has proven that he he's competent, and if we can provide him the tools he needs, he can develop a winning program. It's a damn hard job at this level. Please give Eric all the time, support, and bottles of water, that he needs. We're lucky to have him.
I love that we made the move to the American, but how do we make our conference more fun?
My thoughts-
1. Texas Triangle Trophy- UNT, Rice, and UTSA. Most wins across all programs
2. 50 shades of Green- UNT, Tulane, UAB, Charlotte, and USF are all green colored schools.
3. Booty Bowl (49ers vs Pirates)- Charlotte vs ECU
4. 3 Owls- Rice, FAU, and Temple
5. Crawfish Bucket (Gulf Coast Rivalry)- Rice vs Tulane
6. South Plains Native Nations Recognition- UNT, Tulsa, and Wichita State
7. Discount tickets for Veterans when we play Army or Navy. Sell tickets at the VFW. Flyovers, salute to veterans, and ROTC recognition.
8. FAU vs USF- Florida rivalry
9. Temple needs to embrace the carpetbagger/Yankee persona.
10. Memphis vs Tulane- Riverboat Rivalry
