It has been a long time since I have been this excited about this program. What a way to start a press conference with announcing the hire of Coach Canales. I have been trying for over a month t

I can admit that I wasn't jazzed by the name McCarney last week, but I never waivered in my support of the team.

That said, after hearing the press conference and learning about Canales, I think we have acquired an awesome coaching staff.

I look very forward to learning who else is on it.

Glad Coach Canales is staying! That said, I hope Mccarney brings in a DC and lends his expertise like Patterson does at TCU and as I am sure Stoops does at OU, when needed. Then spends the other 99.9 percent of his time as the CEO I just do not think a system where a head coach who is wearing two hats (head coach and oc or dc) works as things like special teams, time management and all seem to suffer. He can only do so much, and I would rather him oversee the big picture.

I want to congratulate you guys on what I think was an extremely successful hiring process!

I also want to congratulate you on having an athletic director not afraid to take heat for spending money to hire Chuck Neinas and not just doing things the easy way and promoting Mike Canales. And also for hiring a coach with the guts to hire a guy as one of his coordinators whom he knew many wanted to get the top job. Many head coaches are so paranoid they would be threatened by somebody like Canales. So props to McCarney on that.

With apologies to FirefighterRick ( ;) ) I'll just mention SDSU this last time. We won exactly two games two years ago. Now we're getting votes in the AP poll and Rivals has us as the 27th best team in the country. Brady Hoke gets all the credit but at least as important has been his staff as a whole, including DC Rocky Long, who Brady didn't worry some might think should be the top guy if the team struggled a bit. Seems that McCarney has the same philosophy.

I'll be following your program to watch the fruits of your efforts during this process. Again, MAJOR congratulations!

Hello PM pal and welcome back to the board.

Now we need Chuck "known by everyone in the NCAA universe" Neinas to help our UNT leaders pitch North Texas for the MWC so we can play those Aztecs every year! :P

Kraft should sponsor our stadium since it will be full of Mac and Chico, which will prove better than that old pantry staple, Mac and Cheese.

Primo is glad the "Mac and Chico" didn't get missed... pass the Kool-Aid

Hey Lifter....wonder how good/bad it would be to drive down for the game. If I can get tags for my RV, we could tailgate and have fun.....wasn't sure if you bring a lot of people with you....usually it's myself and then my cousin meets me in Dallas for the game. I live in Springdale, AR. Thanks! Allen

      Big dumb question.

      Contracts could be for one+ year(s). Employee status would bring tax questions into play. FICA and income taxes would be due .

      Do we still only play 7-8? 😝 This is what I have. This was tough. We’ve had some pretty great players. Lorient is more potential that straight up production. Starters: Javion Hamlet Rubin Jones Aaron Scott Thomas Bell Zach Simmons Reserves: Ryan Woolridge Tylor Perry James Reese Brennon Lorient Abou Ousmane Too good to leave off: Deng Geu Kai Huntsberry Moulaye Sissoko Jason Edwards

      Big dumb question.

      Why put players under contract when in the current form, you can just dispose of those who aren't performing every season? Scholarships are currently renewed on a yearly basis. Putting players under contract would mean you'd be looking at deals worth 2+ years. What happens when a guy just isn't working out but you're on the hook for another year so the scholarship can't be used for somebody else? I know you could say with "NIL," you could just give enough to cover tuition and some extra but I doubt the boosters would want to pay that much for an unknown player just because a scholarship is used up on another bad player. Reality is, coaches hate when players leave after a great season but those same coaches are quick to push guys into the portal if they're not working out. I'd be all for contracts at our level, though. Contracts mean you can include buyouts so if you really hit on a prospect, I'd love for UNT and our NIL to get some money back for developing a good player.

      If you were given ten picks to build a roster (so, a starting five and five off the bench) made up exclusively of players from the McCasland/Hodge era…who ya got?
