So, no one has mentioned the three article series the Record-Chronicle is doing on the program, the stadium the fan/donor base, etc. I thought the first two were pretty positive given what we normally see from the Record-Chronicle. I will admit to having just skimmed the second one in today's paper, but will read it closely this evening after work. What do some of the other GMG.com posters who see the paper think? Fair reporting? Somewhat positive? What say you?

GO MEAN GREEN...could "Good Things" be happening with the Record-Chronicle and the Mean Green"????

OK, sorry there is a bit about today's article ... I see it posted below... but, what do you think of the series overall? The comments below make me want to read today's story even closer when I get home.

Any other thoughts?

The R-C, which editorially came out against the stadium should just keep their damn mouths shut.

But, it was so far down the list, Mr Perfect, and I thought it would be getting so much more attention...and it says nothing about it being a series of three stories....When I grow up I want to be perfect just like Mr. Quoner...please Mother, may I???? How about giving a fella a change to say "oops" before you go into your oh, so smug routine???? Geeeeeeeezzzzzz! :flowers::)

Maybe they are trying to "make up" and play nice after getting a few "not so happy" phone calls, emails, etc. from folks who realize what an positive economic engine the stadium and hotel complex will be for Denton. Maybe, just maybe they have decided that what is good for UNT is often very good for Denton. But, of course I could be dreaming. You have a valid point there, drex.

KRAM, we love you and we both hope you'll stop by the tailgate and say hello sometime once the season gets going.

KRAM, when posters agree with something they are far less likely to say so than when they disagree. I thought that the second article, especially, was a positive spin on all three donors. I wish that it could be published in its entirety in both the Dallas Morning News, the Fort Worth Star-Telegram and any other location where we have a decent number of alumni. Hell, I'd even like to mail it to as many alumni as we can afford.

      Unfortunately I feel like many folks might rather watch the Notre Dame/Indiana playoff game on Friday.

      Mississippi Valley State (12/18/24)

      We've shown over the last handful of seasons that we have one of the most suffocating defenses in the country. I still think the defining game of this era was the NIT semi against Wisconsin when we held them scoreless the last nine minutes of regulation.

      Breaking: North Texas lands Miami QB Transfer (Free)

      Ok so what's your suggestion? Don't get a QB? I'm confused as to what the end goal of your argument is. Regardless of who we get, we're going to suck? Looks like you're complaining just to complain.

      Not thrilled about playing State

      I'm looking forward to the game. In-state bragging rights up for grabs and a good built-in storyline with the two head coaches going head-to-head. Should be a lot of hype leading up to the game. I know we have a couple games on future schedules, but it would be good to rekindle the series. Give me an annual matchup against Texas State over the likes of South Alabama or any FCS opponent. I'm not going to call this a litmus test for coach Morris, but it's pretty close to one. His tenure has not gotten off to the start we were sold on. In fact it's been pretty disappointing. In two seasons, Morris has a record of 11-13 (.458). Those 11 wins have come against teams with a collective record of 45-87 (.341). His signature win is against South Alabama who finished 6-6 in the regular season this year, but did win their bowl game to finish 7-6 to become only the second team with a "winning" record he's beaten (FCS SFA at 7-5 is the other). Ouch. 2 of the 11 or 18.2% of coach Morris's wins have come against FCS opponents. 4 of the 11 or 36.4% of coach Morris's wins have come against teams named Tulsa and Temple. This is going to be an important game for coach Morris. I hate to utter these words, but is this an "opportunity" game? If we win, he will get a little bit of a lift and goodwill for the program and his tenure so far. If we lose or do so in embarrassing fashion, I think his time here is running out. Of course, I don't know how we treat bowl games anymore. They run the spectrum of meaningless exhibition games to the game that defines a coach's legacy. Should be fun.

      Mississippi Valley State (12/18/24)

      Sure. But this wasn't the first game I have thought this about. My knowledge of hoops is limited and I try to stay out of posting on the BB board for that reasons. Maybe it happens multiple times every game played by every team, but it seems like NT's defense forces this turnover type regularly against good and bad teams. Probably just selective memory. GMG
