With the movement every year. Who do yall think will stay and who will leave for money or opportunities? 

The negative boomers and Gen X posters on this board. The few remaining millennials and Gen Z fans that we have.

Coach Morris is probably going to get hired away as a G-4 offensive coordinator.  

P-4?

I guess if a big dog comes calling, maybe, but he was at a P-4 before he came to UNT so that seems kinda like going backwards.

Yes, he's been there, done that, and got the t-shirt. No reason to go for a coordinator position unless we let him go.

I'm hopeful someone cautions DT and any other players to be very careful with NIL promises. It's currently against the rules to get a signed NIL deal until AFTER you are on campus and then you can't transfer that year. The coach at UNLV readily admits that one of his assistants told that QB how much he'd get and the LATER said what the coach says doesn't really count - it's all up to the collectives who won't commit till you're registered and on campus! UGA and at least one other FBS school in the state of Georgia have "committed" to more NIL than they have money to pay. But the way the system is set up the players can't do anything about it. The NCAA says they are getting dozens of phone calls from players who transferred and found out the promised NIL wasn't there and often their scholarships weren't either! Caveat Lusor (Player beware!)

No one is more anti NIL than me, but it seems like maybe he’s letting UNT area businesses know that he’s open to offers.

There is nothing about this that is specific to Denton.  He's letting everything and everyone know. 

If you want to give him the benefit here, believe that he WANTS the NIL to step up in Denton so he can stay.  For the sake of consistency and not having to move.

The green and white hearts could be seen as sign that it’s UNT related.   Plus, no other school can give him NIL money now.

But, yes, I’m definitely giving him the benefit of the doubt.

The guy is a national leader in TDs. No reason a national or state/regional brand couldn’t add him to their NIL lineup. It doesn’t have to be school specific. You know, like it was intended to be.

Great point.  I was thinking more of getting NIL from a school collective.

DT has been incredibly vocal with his UNT love. I don't doubt he'll get some under the table promises from other schools but I also don't think it is a slam dunk leaving scenario. 

 

If I'm a coach, I'm pointing to Darden v Maclin. Darden put up insane numbers and got drafted in the 4th round. Maclin left and may not get drafted at all now.

If I'm a coach, I'm keeping a running spreadsheet of all transfers out and their performance elsewhere. Specifically those who went p4. Maclin, Gumms, Rogers. From accolades to benchwarmers.

      SMUt getting owned by State

      If everything will go the way you think it will go then why do we play the games or even schedule games with spreads over 14 points? The underdogs in College Football are in a perpetual no win situation. Get the upset there in the regular season are a ton of excuses and devaluation of what your program accomplished. Close loss then the naysayers devalue that also (SMU vs Clemson and the push to shoe in Alabama a team that lost to the Tennessee team that got blown out by Ohio State). I want teams to prove it on the field. And since the big brand teams have always been invested in scheduling the easiest path to the post season. NOT EVEN APPEARING in your conference championship game should be majorly punitive. So I don’t give a crap what people think Alabama (or anyone else would do). They lost to Vandy and a bad OU team. And they could have scheduled a decent FBS team instead of home scrimmages against Western Kentucky and Mercer. Or they could kept a SEC conference membership where they play more than half of the teams in the conference in a season. The worst aspect of boxing that killed it popularity was the ranking organizations a chicken hearted scheduling. I hate subjectivity in sports that have easy scoring rules. And putting in a team that didn’t appear in their conference championship game in a better playoff position than a conference champion or championship game loser is 100% based on subjectivity if the teams did not play head to head and have the same win/loss record. Maybe I will be in the minority of College Football fans over 35. But I will have no interest in the opening round of CFP if they start routinely subjectively punishing Conference Champions over teams that failed to appear in their conference title game. Go look at the SEC standings; even arguing Alabama over Ole Miss getting that spot is subjective garbage. Both are 9-3 overall and 5-3 in SEC play. But almost universally people are lamenting Alabama not being included. The stupidity and greed of the SEC had border state rivals in the same conference not play each other this year. 🙄. To me that is the outrage. Maybe if they had played each other we one of them would be in the playoff and SMU fans couldn’t have had a reasonable protest if that happened.

      I already wonder how long he's going to stay anyway. Is he expected to challenge P-barger for the starting position? If not, do we expect him to take the job in year 2 or would it be more likely that EM brings in another experienced QB. Whatever we do, I don't want ANY consideration regarding lost eligibility to factor into whether he plays or not. Edit: I posted before seeing this which is definitely good news.

      Only 2 of our 22 starters from our last game against Temple are in the portal. The high school guys who Morris have signed have pretty much all stayed, except for the guys who weren’t getting any playing time. Out of the 2023 and 2024 high school signees signed by Morris, Tyler Mercer is the only one to start and hit the portal. The other 2023 and 2024 HS Signees who have played extensively, Braydon Nelson, Brian Nelson, Evan Jackson, Landon Sides, Miles Coleman, Wyatt Young, Jaedon Langley, Taylor Starling, Quinton Hammonds have all played extensively or started as underclassmen the last two seasons and all seem pretty committed to the program. It seems your chances of keeping a starter is far higher if that guy is someone your HC signed out of high school. It’s a stronger relationship.

      SMU's Last Bowl Win...

      The Mean Green have won 130 conference championships, including 34 since 2000. SMU has been on probation five times between 1974 and 1985, and seven times overall—

      Stop Blaming Athletes and the NCAA for Ruining College Football

      These players had already chosen to get a free education at a given school when they first committed and they should have factored their degree options/quality into that decision. Now, if after playing for a while, an offer to a BETTER UNIVERSITY (not FB team) for their career is now being offered, then transferring is a valid choice. However, I doubt that is much of a decision factor in the majority of transfers. BTW here's an interesting NCAA site that provides data on graduation, majors, etc. Click on the columns to view different breakdowns, i.e. By Sport. https://www.ncaa.org/sports/2018/5/15/division-i-diploma-dashboard.aspx Also, the NCAA claims that graduation rates have been trending up since the reforms in 2002. While this may be true, I suspect it also has to a lot to do with the general increase in college graduation due to the introduction of numerous less-rigorous majors. More information can be found at the additional links found on the following page: https://www.ncaa.org/news/2024/11/20/media-center-di-graduation-rates-remain-at-highest-level.aspx https://ncaaorg.s3.amazonaws.com/research/gradrates/2024/2024D1RES_GSRTrends.pdf
