Yep. Typical DD play calling. 10 in the box. Quinn has 1 on 1 coverage no safety in sight for 3, yes, 3 plays in a row and DD runs the ball. I'm sorry I don't care who you are if I have Quinn 1 on 1 with no safety I pass ever single time. He would have easily gone for a TD.

This just solidified that DD really is the worst coach in D1A football.

My message to Dickey. This game specifially your play calling in the 4th quarter is EXACTLY what got you fired. Not the recruiting. Not your fan bashing. Nothing else but your play to lose play calling.

Once again, trailing with less then 3 minutes left: Run, run, pass, run, INT.

Let the Todd Dodge era begin!!!

Last drive play calling was run run run pass (on 4th down) run run INT on a horrible pass play call. I don't know what junior leage coach he saw call that play but it needs to go back to the junior league.

Appropriate ending for a team wearing those god awful, worse than junior high school uniforms.  Worked well with the play calling.

We looked like a junior high team for sure. What an embarrasment!

I hope DD is asked not to coach the last game. Happy Trails you SOB.

I always thought he had some sorriness, know I know he has truckloads of it.

The whole black stunt should be viewed as gross insubordination and Dickey should have his contract completely negated.

As in UNT should not pay DD another red cent.

Then RV should have DD box up all his belonging first thing Monday morning and have him escorted off campus.

I noticed that RV was missing for a while during the game. He might have boxed up DD's stuff during the game. Can't you hear the conversation at the AC right now?

Hopefully RV is being bombarded with e-mails and voice messages regarding the black uniforms, if he did have a say on the uniforms then it is even more embarassing.

Just curious could the Black Tops also be a Conference violation or did they have the SunBelt/NCAA logos if they are even required, so anyone know?

I think that if RV was involved in the black uni's that the team wouldn't have wamed up in the green jersey's. It was a subversive move.

I heard that RV didn't know about them. Also, that it was team's idea to show support for DD and revolt against the administration. No way I let DD on the bus to Monroe! We are the Mean GREEN, not the Mean Machine from "the Longest Yard". mad.gif

If the team decided they wanted to wear all black, fine. However, DD should have said, "Thanks guys, for the show of support, but it's not appropriate, so please don't do it."

Also, if it was entirely the players' idea, did they all pony up for the jerseys or did someone fund them? Either way, if DD had control of the team, he could have and should have stopped it. They lost all the support from the stands when they walked out on that field in those jerseys.

Not being mean to the players but if they loved DD so much, they can leave their scholarships at the door also before or after ULM, particularly many of the starters who have been outplayed by 2nd and 3rd stringers.

I don't know if I buy that. I've heard so many stories about the players having zero respect for the coaching staff. And why would the players show such loyalty to a losing coach? And who paid for the jerseys? And who on the coaching staff approved it?

No, I think Dickey's hands were all over this.

I agree. I was cheering and screaming as always until they walked out in those uniforms. I cheered for JQ during the senior presentation. I watched half the first quarter but didn't stand or ever cheer. I left after that because I felt the university and its fans had been disrespected in such heartless fashion.

That would make me happy as can be. I'd like to get a custom t-shirt and wear it to class in defiance with Dickey. I have class with 2 senior players, very nice guys and gracious, but I think a senior should go out in no jersey at all before putting a jersey his coach decides to make a statement with. Darrell Dickey did not pay any one of their tuitions. The University of North Texas did and our colors are Green and White.

I don't see why DD would want to spend his money on something this stupid. I would not be surprised if MM had a hand in this one. Either way, it's definitely something DD condoned and encouraged. Completely out of line and completely classless.

      Just for fun

      So, I was thinking. There’s a high probability Chandler is going to get poached next year, unfortunately, so I wanted to see your prediction on who our qb will be next year. Just because it’s an off week and this is all in fun, my ideal scenario is to keep Morris.(both of them) plus, if one of us turns out to be right we get bragging rights!! lol That being said, I could see a certain former Guyer qb, that has recently lost his starting job, come back home and spend a season with the new qb whisperer!! That’s right, Jackson Arnold. predict away! cheers fellas!!

      Thursday/Friday FBS/FCS Games - 10/3 and 10/4

      Houston started to look like Fritz ball tonight. Cougar now has 2 wins. Raise a toast CQ and savor the evening. Good win over Sonny. Fort Worth looks bored directionless. GMG

      The Answer is Marketing....

      We all love Grant. Think it was a typo. Tough name for GM and auto correct. I don’t know about the dormant alumni. They seem like lost causes to me. A buddy last weekend who never goes to a UNT game though a grad, was happy to send me pics from smu where he went to see his beloved Noles. No connection to FSU but he was there. He doesn’t disparage UNT but doesn’t care either. And the silly alums on sports radio apologize for speaking about UNT or giving an update about a G5 team. Spineless. Go after the young families moving into Denton. Make it the Mean Green Village Fairgrounds for 7 Saturdays a year with different themes. October fest, funnel cake fan fest, food drive game in November, summer sizzling barbecue bonanza for a September game. Have a Mariachi Mean Green crew like they do at Texas Rangers. The mariachis on mariachi Monday walk around the concourse in their Ranger red outfits smiling taking pictures with fans. Then they play a few sets on the big screen and boom you get a unique group of peeps you look forward to seeing. The coolest thing this season was all their close ups of their championship rings as they strung their instruments. Could be a nice link to our Denton Hispanic community. Do some fun things the community would come out to and get them into the stadium. Jared is doing some creative things this season. Like Oktoberfest and tickets and tee promotion. Sellout game push and more to come for November. Keep creating interesting unique and different because UNT definitely is creative unique and interesting. GMG

      Portland Watching Party?

      I don’t think you’re going to feel in danger or anything. I go out most evenings when I’m there. It just isn’t that lively since so much has been shuttered. If the weather is nice, though, it might be livelier than I’m thinking and I’m told the city has been taking an effort the last few months to clean up the sidewalks. The area around Powell’s books (which you definitely should go to) is usually pretty busy and touristy. There are several really good brewpubs nearby and a dive bar or two. Feel free to DM me if you want any recommendations.
