I think I saw him after the game on the way to my car in the stands. Did anyone see him dressed out on the sidelines? If he didn't dress for the game, does anyone know why? I was looking forward to seeing this guy play and help this offensive line this season...will this happen...will he play this season?

Appears there's a group of players with significant previous experience who have been moved off to the side (not that this applies to Banks). Fact of life with any new staff. Looks like they include Rose, Warren, Chatman, Durodoye and Ross (still on team?). Until Saturday, Green was one of them. If I'm wrong, some may be on special teams, which could account for occasional shortfalls there. Bummer it has to happen to anyone, but it does.

Well, Dodge indicated that he didn't watch any of last year's tapes; so I would say that any players currently in a doghouse have played their way into that doghouse. And that's just disappointing.

Ross is only a sophmore so give him time, and Rose was gonna lose his job to Drake sooner or later.

I question this move if this indeed true. Maybe a bit of over confidence contributed to doing this????? <_<

      ***OFFICIAL UNT vs. UTSA IN-GAME DISCUSSION***

      It usually works that way. Lose to good teams and beat bad ones. I hope you stick with the team, but if it is too much torture, be like many others and give up. As a long mostly suffering fan, over fifty years, NT is my team. I didn't go to UT or A&M and couldn't care less about them and other the perennial powers. As far as your coach record comparison, Dodge was a bargain basement hire and didn't have a chance. McCarney was the first football hc that was hired with a competitive compensation package. Unfortunately, he had serious health issues and was a failure. Littrell and Morris were upgrades but certainly not proven D1 hc winners. I have not entirely given up on Morris, although the last game was a horrible coaching job. The defensive coordinator basically was fired by his defensive players. They are either/and/or not very talented or were poorly coached. Ether way the Defensive Coordinator is responsible. NT has two very winnable games left. Two wins and a good showing in any bowl would make this year at least a limited success.

      2025 DC Wish List

      We will need to connect some dots for a potential new DC hire (assuming the interim doesn't get it). First, Caponi had no apparent Texas connections. He was a career defensive asst position coach at several schools, and lastly a CB coach at Iowa State, before being elevated to DC at UNT. He did have some DC time at a Dlll school in 2008-10, but nothing since. Was he elevated too fast? https://meangreensports.com/sports/football/roster/coaches/matt-caponi/731 Does Morris have a short-list already? Probably. It's not like everyone didn't know there needed to be a change in DC for some time coming. Here are some starting criteria: -The new DC "should" have previous FCS or FBS DC experience...so a repeat learning-curve doesn't happen. -Texas ties for recruiting would be bonus points. -For a quick hire, I expect it to be someone Morris is already familiar with, no interview needed, only $ negotiated. -Are 2-year contracts a thing for Coordinators in FBS? If not, One-year only please, until we establish confidence. So, with all that in mind: -Find some FCS DCs that Morris worked with somewhere else. -A DC on an FBS staff where the HC has already been fired, or soon will be, but they had a good Defense! (a new HC will bring his own staff in). -A former head coach that has been recently recycled back thru DC to try again.

      Why Support this Program?….Seriously!?

      In their defense, they probably got influenced by free tickets, the DFW media swooning over them, and want to see why being a real winner feels like.
