Settle down, drama queen. No one is saying to not support the team or the university. God forbid a fan have a realistic outlook on this squad and not only think that we are the greatest team of all time. 🙄
Morris might figure it out in time but the stats and the history so far don’t support that optimism. I WANT us to win out but Morris hasn’t give me a reason to believe it possible.
Plus 27 years of being beat down as a fan here doesn’t help. So spare me with the t-shirt fan “suggestion” and get off your high horse. 

I tried to make this point in another thread, but I think we are just "boomers" or insert generational term here and we just want to complain. Try being a fan of this team for over 17 years (me) and then come back and tell me, "oh, but we are improving". I will believe it when it happens and happens a few more times.

Now, we are in to name calling.   This t-shirt fan has attended over 200 NT football games. 

You might want to edit your third sentence, I have no idea what you are attempting to say.  

Again, Take my suggestion be like thousands of UNT alums and find another team to support.

Obvious, supporting a 5-2 team with one conference loss to the pre-season favorite away is too much for you.  Did you really think NT was going to win in Lubbock?

I also missed the post, were I stated that this year's team was anywhere close to the best NT football team of all time.

What?   Yep.  
 

- We won’t make the conference championship. 
- We’ll probably go bowlin with no guarantee of being successful.  
- Games will continue to be unnecessarily stressful

The immediate future of our program hinges on a decision with the DC. Make a change, outlook could be promising.  Stand pat and we’ll continue to struggle, be frustrated and  recruiting could be impacted.  
 

I, for one, am ready for a change.  But more so ready to see if a change will be made.  Only Morris knows how he really feels about the present and future. 

Just getting on from last saturday to see this.  I don't know man... you seem to forget our suckage... we haven't been 5-2 in a long long time.  I am happy.

      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
