Hello All, I saw a post on twitter that the WFAA Sports Special tonight will have a piece on coach McCarney's recovery from his stroke.

Also, met gomeangreen member JRock at a St. Patty's party last night and was encouraged to sign up on here after speaking with him. Go Mean Green!

Love the site and great info.

It was great meeting you all last night. We had a great time. So fun having so many UNT alums in one place. And who would of thought we know the same people. Quite the surprise. Welcome aboard. You're in good company.

Go Mean Green!

Coach Mac looked great! So good to hear him and see that he is ok and ready to coach the Mean Green spring in a week and a half. Great program by channel 8! GMG!

My wife (who rarely watches the sports unless Dale Hansen is going unplugged) and I watched this and she was very impressed with Coach Mac. She said that most coaches who come across that strong in their presentation are usually (from her point of view) doing their "coach thing" and don't seem very sincere. She was very impressed with Coach Mac's sincerity.

I believe that Dan McCarney comes across as the most sincere and enthusiastic coach that I have ever heard. I used to love to hear Hayden Fry but you knew that much of his spiel was coachspeak. McCarney inspires like none I've heard. If he weren't a football coach he'd make a top-notch salesman. I am so glad that he hasn't lost his zest for life and his enthusiasm for coaching.

If the Athletic Department doesn't have him speaking at every organization's meeting in Denton County that uses a speaker then they're not doing their job.

      NCAA proposes new rules to allow direct payments to players

      Non-scholarship level? You know that's D3, right? To the general sentiment of your point, I tend to agree. UNT football is sort of a joke punchline. I was never sure it would ever do much, but I was somewhat hopeful. With the landscape the way it is, I am all but certain that UNT football will never be much of a anything. Even if we one day have a 2016 Western Michigan type year the market conditions would breakdown our roster as fast as humanly possible. It is literally impossible, with our terrible support and low football NIL to ever have even a smidgen of sustainability. Frankly, as I've said before, given our recruiting pecking order throughout the state and region we will never even sniff a 2016 WMU type season, IMO. I'm not sure how anyone could dispute this outside of ignorance/hope. So, the university athletics is clearly standing at a Y in the road... What to do? Keep kicking the can down the street and faking it while trying to swindle any possible donor they can? Or make wholesale changes to dress our athletic front porch up. From the looks of it, our basketball program might be heading back down into mediocrity... Are we going to do anything about it? Or just be bad to mediocre in EVERYTHING we do?

      Portal +/- numbers for UNT

      Ugly truth is we have no chance whatsoever the way the system is set up right now. The University sure won't pony up and neither with the donor based on the hires we have made.

      NCAA proposes new rules to allow direct payments to players

      More than 4 decades ago Corky Nelson told a meeting that North Texas highest aspiration could only be to become the best of the bottom 100 programs in D- 1 , anything else was delusional. Corky saved football at North Texas with dedicated coaches that could operate on very limited resources. Do not deceive yourself that this program can exist even in FCS form w/o football. Any attempt to drop football will only result to a drop to non scholarship competition. This level of athletics for a school the size of NT would be a disgrace and make us even more the laughingstock of this state

      Spring Practice Updates

      My question is how does this effect their academics? Does he stay through the end of the semester, or does he leave once he enters the portal? Once entering the portal, any aid from North Texas should cease immediately as well as any NIL payments.
