His two best throws of the night were the last two, including the TD fortunately. This was definitely an off game for him.

I wonder if he was having trouble with his feet.  We saw the one slip but he may have been having "soft feet" on many of his other throw which caused issues. 

I know we supposedly practiced on grass and had the sprinklers on and probably wet the balls.
But did we really simulate the wet conditions and completely soak the players.  I know the defense has been bad at tackling all year, but wet players make it worse, especially if you didn't practice for it.

Morris seemed to struggle with passing until the rain stopped. Just an observation.

Fancher was likely more experienced on the grass and also in the rain. I mean it is south Florida. It surely rains a lot down there.

Still can't believe NT won this game the way our defense played.

We were fortunate to have rain over humidity!

Off night for him. Off (as a favorite on the road) half for the Defense.

And we won. The progress is real.

Explain the progress? I would guess most people saw regression.

Progress is a maybe.

I took from this, a tale of two halves.  Allowing 10 points in the 2H after a 20 point 2Q is cool.

We don't have that kind of wiggle room if we want to beat Memphis.

Regression from the last couple of games, but I would say it’s progress as a program.  I’ve got nothing to back this up, but I feel like most games in the past 20-30 years we lose if we play like we did last night.

He's the complete package.  Just praying he can stay healthy for the rest of his career.  Kudos to Eric and the staff for landing him.

I sure hope he wants to stay here and is convincing all of his teammates to do the same.

Agree.   If he continues UNT's rise, he will draw attention from the larger FB$ programs, similar to Rogers last year.   This unfortunately is the era we are in.  I hope he has found a home at UNT.  Both Morris' could get looks/offers if we have sustained success.

      Love me some Chico with the jet black Roy Orbison interim hair. For me Chico is like Creed. I'm not supposed to love them but I do. Coach Canales loved North Texas more than most alumni.

      Earth to GMG

      This world does not exist anymore. It used to, but not in the portal and NIL age of college football. If players cared about coaching staff stability they would not be transferring at the rate they are. If this thinking permeates our AD, then they need to look for a new line of work because that ship sailed. Seriously, how many 17-18 years olds sit down and review the contracts of the coaches to decide which offer to take? High school recruiting should be de-emphasized. It can't go away completely, but building a program through the high school ranks over multiple years no longer works. When recruiting high school players, I think the only "stability" play is academic stability. There are a lot of players that have the skill and ability to play D1 football, but won't make it to the next level. Hopefully they are smart enough to realize that. Sell them (and their parents!) on playing a sport they love and getting a solid education and degree while they do. That's why it's important to continue to improve the academic status of UNT. We're not going to be a Stanford, but improving 4-year graduation rates and tighter admission standards will help.

      AAC Trend - Year 2 of 5 Firings

      At this point in the football cycle, if you fire a coach then you throw away all the recruiting work being done for the following seasons. The portal opens up in just a few days, and most AAC schools build their next years roster in the transfer portal. How hard is it going to be for these programs to build rosters for next season if they dont have a head coach going into the transfer window?

      I hope we lose to Temple

      Remember how much we hated La Tech in the 90’s and ‘2000’s? How we mocked them for stupidly going from an Independent in the 90’s to wasting the mega bucks on travel in the WAC in the 2000’s, and their obnoxious fans coming here talking trash? Then 2012 happened…… https://coachad.com/news/did-louisiana-tech-really-turn-down-a-bowl-game/ They had elevated their program to the point that when they lost the last two conference games of the ‘12 season finishing 9-3, and ending as the nation’s #1 offense, they were so damn upset over it they chose, either directly or indirectly to not play ULM in the Independence Bowl. That announcement was the day I practically fell in love with their school and their program because to me it was the greatest stance on principle and accountability and a standard they felt they had set for themselves and held to. Since then, we’ve been there several times, you and me, and have seen how poor their athletics were funded all those years, which gained even more respect from this college athletics fan. That’s where I am as a fan and alumn of NT right now. Wishing we would set a standard, a high standard and stick with it. Rick
