Dan McCarney called me back while traveling the back roads of who knows where on a recruiting trip to talk a little about the new lineup of his coaching staff. UNT added Tommy Perry as its special teams/running backs coach, moved Mike Grant from running backs to wide receivers and Nick Quartaro from wide receivers to tight ends.

McCarney was very impressed with Perry when he sat down with him at the coaches’ convention. He had terrific recommendations from former Texas A&M coach R.C. Slocum. UNT director of football operations Scotty Conley also recommended Perry, who was on Conley’s staff at Texas A&M-Commerce.

Perry played at Tyler JC and A&M.

I asked about how important Texas ties were in the interview process. McCarney said that he was going to hire the best coach he could find and felt he found the right guy in Perry.

      ARMY

      One could ask the same question in the opposite direction: who has North Texas beat that Army couldn't beat? I expect a hard-fought game on Saturday between two of the best teams in the conference.

      Prediction vs Army

      Army will have over 500 yards of offense by the end of the third quarter. After watching us against any team with a pulse on offense this year, it's probably not going to be a fun game for the home team.

      Brief History of the Mean Green

      And, while Joe Greene played at North Texas in the late 60s, the nickname “Mean Green” is actually in reference to the stingy defensive line (?) of that era.

      Evansville (11/5/24)

      entirely based on previous season stat lines and presumed fit, I mentally have Massie starting at the 4...he seems to bring a little bit more offensive game than Newell, and while he gives up some inches he did average more boards and he's pretty range-y and like Walker, averaged over a steal/game last season. plus assuming Vice and Smith aren't contributors this season, Newell and Lorient off the bench can give enough height to sort of combo man the 4/5 spot...neither is really a 5, but together you can get a rotation with Sissoko
