When did ealey and Roman leave? I never heard anything about that, did I miss something? I do not care so much about Roman but I wish we could have kept Ealey...

What happened to Ealey? If you remember, Dodge's judgment on Kevin was awful high on this kid.

Shows you how tough it is to know how good a recruit really is going to be.

I don't know if it is that TD does not want him, I think it is more he did not want UNT. He said he was granted a release meaning he asked to leave. I only remember him playing a little in the beginning of the season but I think I remember thinking he looked halfway decent in comparison to the rest of the DB.......but then again that is not saying much.

Kevin was thrown to the wolves like several other true freshman. Mosely, Kevin, Dibrell, Vizza, DeSoto, Penson, and Breece could have benefitted from being red shirted.

You can see why Dodge used up some of the freshman but not sure why he waisted some others.

First of all, I don't think Desoto played. Secondly, you say that you see why he used some freshmen, but not sure why he "waisted" others. He did just that; he played 6-7 (as I recall) , and redshirted 10.

Lazer is right about his wanting to leave UNT. I asked about him but I didn't ask about Roman and didn't realize that he had left, also.

However, there is one BIG mistake in that article. The Defensive Back of the Year, Antoine Bush, returns and he will only be a junior. There are three other defensive backs returning: Neal, Gordon, and Dawson but I believe that all of their game time was on special teams. I don't see it any better for them this season. Neal may turn out to be the only one even fast enough for special teams and that's not a lock since we have so many fast freshmen. I hope that Dawson is moved back to linebacker where he had a pretty good year in 2006 (in the top 5 in tackles.

Have you seen Bron practice at DB? Look at what Dodge recruited and you tell me if Bron is going to play DB. Hagar is a good athlete just a tweener. No way he gets on the field in the secondary.

Can't you show up at the Dickey practice field and watch? I doubt any one would run you off. Your an alum.

Yeah, I'll show up if I can watch those practices from the "Lee Harvey Oswald Memorial" coaches tower. :ph34r::whip:

Only at North Texas, folks, only at North Texas...

If Roman hadn't played against OU, no one would have nailed him to the cross. Roman was a nickel back at best. No kid should have to endear what he took. Dodge and Mendoza have to take the blame on that, they should have never had him in one on one coverage.

Much agreed. This board was soo high on his video from california, and as soon as our brilliant defense coordinator put him in a position to fail all of the fans turned on him.

Dawson's an LB. Nelson, Neal and Gordon were mainly special teamers, played very little in secondary. Guess he forgot Bush.

This board is high on everyone until they play a down or two and then they will nail you to the wall like Roman. This same board will forget that mendoza's defense stopped the offense in last year's spring game but will give Deloach major kudos foe doing it this year.

First time a corner gets burned someone will call for his head. First interception and people will say riley sucks and that TD should have stuck with GV.

How much grace period does Dodge or Deloach get this season? Who gets more rope?

Who will scream first for a 2 TE look? How about the running game? How about the sacks last season, our Qb got killed, who is going to beat up on Lefty?

Every time I try to go beat up Coach Leftwich, 5 really big guys get between us and try to knock me down. It's tougher to get to him than you might think.

I'd ask some friends to help me try to pursue him so that at least one of us could beat him up, but I don't want to hear the fight song played.

      🙄 like I have stated before DC under a lame duck coach is not a highly desired job for coaches with options.

      That is very subjective. Boise State or UNLV probably will get the G5 spot in the playoff over a one loss Army team. Louisville, SMU, Houston, Rutgers and Cincinnati left conference for greener pastures. So I don’t know who anointed the AAC as 5th, but the playoff committee isn’t listening to them. Army, a team brand new to the conference that came into the conference and dominated. They were independent juggernauts last year at 6-6 🙄. AAC is viewed as better than the MAC, CUSA and Sun Belt. But we certainly won’t be viewed as better than the reconstructed PAC 12 and right now it doesn’t look like we are viewed better than the current MWC.

      Football at The Dat next wrekend

      Don't if y'all know this or not.....but the last two years we've had Texas high school football games played in Louisiana. Both years the games have been at Turpin Stadium in Natchitoches. As a matter of fact, this year they hosted two games on the same day. (Daingerfield versus Newton, and Texarkana versus Port Neches Grove). Both games were last Friday.

      The exact same thing was probably thought by other fan bases about Eric, Seth, Dan, and any other head coach we’ve hired here.
