Why is it that every damn name I hear on the board and in the newspaper is one of RV old bed buddies from every former schools he went too. I'm starting to believe that maybe just maybe pulled the plug on DD to bring in one of his buddies....

Which I believe 99% of the people on this board can agree that his croonies mentioned is no where near what is needed at UNT, and im going to say it, they are a bunch of washed-up has-been's that RV is willing to throw in here at the expense of a very fragile and crucial time in Mean Green Athletics.

Each day that passes by and each name that RV has begged to come to coach at NT, the less I trust RV..which isnt much, Considering that I watch him several times to my best friend in his face about getting a refund for his LSU tickets after the hurricane fiasco. He never did follow through on refunding a ticket to in my opinion a huge NT fan, is just unworthy of my trust.

You, along with everyone else, do not know what is going on in the hiring process. You have no idea who is being talked to, who is being interviewed, who is being considered. Just let RV do his job and when the new coach is announced you can moan and complain then if you like. But until then you are complaining about internet and newspaper rumors. RV could hire Pete Carroll or Bob Stoops and somebody would find a reason to complain.

Playmaker,

Please tap the break. RV has not given us any reason to think that he will not make a great choice. RV has proven to be a good decision maker.

Many people on this board didn't think he would fire DD. Well, he did.

RV has been able to increase the level of alumni and community giving and improved our facilities in a great way.

He has also proven to be aligned with our vision of this program for the future. He has worked very hard for a new stadium and a higher standard for NT sports as a whole.

Give the guy time. How you you feel if you were RV and every gripes about contacting people you know and TRUST?

How would you feel if you were a long time friend of RV and he didn't even give you a courtesy call about a coaching opportunity he had available. Many of these contacts may be RV simply reaching out to those he knows to see the intetrest level.

There is a reason that RV posted on the board that he will not post while this process takes place. Give him time. He knows what he is doing.

Congrats Playmaker - you have now earned the coveted #3 spot on my "Don't read threads initiated by this person" list.

Should I start a poll to let everyone guess who my other two are? tongue.gif

Ditto to every post on this thread except the initial one. We don't and shouldn't know what is going on with the search. I, too, am confident that RV will do all he can to bring in the best candidate.

Seeing that he posted the same topic 15 minutes after this one, I would have to say the answer is yes.

I had the exact same thougt. Mabey he didn't think we would see the first post. Mabey it was the Captain speaking (Captain Morgan that is).

I second that. Screw 1 and 2 - who is 4?

So far, it's a pretty exclusive club -- just 3 on the list at the moment. But for anyone wanting to join the club, follow these instructions:

1. Start numerous posts on the same topic.

2. Make outlandish claims (alternate: Announce plans to never post again).

3. Beat a dead horse (extra points for technicolor).

4. Repeat steps 1-3 ad nauseum.*

*(You may be removed from the black list at any time for killing obnoxious threads with pizza or Star Wars discussions - so avoid those activities if you want to stay in the club)

You leave Captain Morgan out of this. He didn't even get me thrown out of the stadium in Austin this year.

As for this thread, Playmaker, get over it, he's not picking you. Who knows who RV has really talked to? Besides, if you were going to hire someone, a factor you should consider is how loyal they will be to you and your vision.

      Mensah Getting $8 Million NIL Deal

      You got it dumbass. Seriously, let’s look at the two situations without inserting race since you felt the need. Mensah is a RS Freshmen that entered the portal stating his price. He didn’t get a degree from Tulane and probably cleared out some basics while there. Mensah may be a great student and may live up to his last name, but his academic success was never mentioned just that he was entering the portal and here is his price Morris was at North Texas as a student that had already earned his degree, the reason he missed spring practice, and a dollar amount was never mentioned regarding his transfer/entering the portal. You chose to read it as a racial observation, not me. You were looking for something that wasn’t there nor considered when I made my comment. I was just adding in to another poster’s comments. Stupid financial decisions are not the result of race but thanks for. Inferring that. Watch the “30 for 30” episode titled “Broke” and it will reveal that it happens to all races. Thanks for being who you are though. I would be shocked if you replied differently.

      Portal players leaving

      I think the fact that he's playing in the bowl game shows 1) he just wants to play and 2) it just shows more of the drive and commitment that's gotten him to where he his. I'm not gonna' fault him for leaving if they aren't rewarding him with a scholarship and especially if it looks like he isn't going to be in the main rotation next year. That feels like "thanks for bailing us out, now go sit down."

      Too many "player-whisperers" these days telling kids what they should do next in their career. I'd like to see more data about players that left a program for NIL/more playing time on what the return on their investment was. If they had a do-over would they make different decisions or was it really the right move? Do players that change schools every year really have a loyalty to any of them when their playing days are over?

      Stop Blaming Athletes and the NCAA for Ruining College Football

      There is a lot of collateral damage in this Portal and NIL era. Fan-withdrawal because of PTSD associated with transferring key players will cause less emotional investment, and eventually less $$ investment in the program they follow. NIL donation requests, ticket surcharges, and pleas from ADs has displaced asking for donations for brick and mortar projects. Player buy-in to a coaching staff and program has been replaced with NIL buy-out of the players.
