1. Defensive line - doesn't need to be stellar but can't be pushed around like a rag doll either.

2. Aaron Fortenberry leaves big shoes at center. Can a former walkon Kaydon Kirby come close or will the Juco be able to help?

3. Can any receiver give us a deep speed threat other than Brelan?

4. Can Brelan stay healthy for an entire season?

5. Can DT lead us at QB to more wins than losses in C-USA

Feel free to add, reorder or subtract. Starting to be that time of the year where football absorbs my mind. GMG

It's not that we need another deep threat at WR. What we need is three or four more WRs who can run routes correctly, recognize coverages, and get open...consistently.

And then not throw it over their heads into the stands.

It's always been a dream of mine to catch a game ball at a North Texas game though... haha

2. Can DT BB win the starting job and lead us at QB to more wins than losses in C-USA

3. Aaron Fortenberry leaves big shoes at center. Can a former walkon Kaydon Kirby come close or will the Juco be able to help?

4. Can the DE's shrink the pocket/ get to the QB?

4. Can any receiver give us a deep speed threat other than Brelan? Will the receiving corps be deeper and make more tough catches.

5. Can Brelan and the Jimmy Show stay healthy for an entire season?

6. Can the return game improve to win some field position battles?

7. Will the punting game be as effective?

Spot on good sir.

At what point in the season will the 'fans' walk out not to return if things get bumpy?

      A very good NIL message from Coach Morris

      Might be one of the best statements he's made about NT Football.

      Morris to UVA! Going to be a tough year for him

      Tell us who else had a payroll to meet that was hidden by the Governor of Texas? After having been on probation several times before this...

      JUCO players will have 4 years NCAA eligibility remaining

      The UT Athletic Department will just get treated as a corporation, saying funds received to it are voluntary, even if tax-deductible. And no politician will touch this, knowing how quickly they'd get hammered for hurting State U's football team and its funding.

      Transfer portal is killing P4 as well as G5

      You know, the playoff system to create a champion is better, but I still loved the way CFB was when conferences were regional, they had their champion tied into a specific bowl game, there weren't so many spare bowls featuring matchups that nobody cares about between 6-6 teams, and each season, the end of the year was talking about who had the better resume if this team loses or wins in their bowl game. I grew up loving the SWC and the Big Eight. Each year, the goal was to make it to Dallas or Miami and see where the chips fell. You were neighbors and friends with grads of those schools. I'm sure it was the same in the old version of the SEC and the ACC. It was just a fun time--and if things went great, the Cotton Bowl, the Orange Bowl, the Sugar Bowl, or the Rose Bowl would be for a national title. But if not, you watched them all because the games mattered in the big scheme of it all and they were on all day and night on New Years Day, along with the Fiesta Bowl, and then, later, the Citrus Bowl for the ACC Champ. Its a bygone era, no doubt, but the games had great coaches all over the country and players we got to know over the years. Yes, there was plenty of cheating, and yes, the big boys controlled the game, but it was more fun. Whatever it is we have today, I feel sorry for people who think CFB today is more enjoyable to follow and support. They probably think we are olds that have Good Ol Day Syndrome and that is fine. I can't really refute any of that. But it was a sport I and many of my age (50s now) loved and followed intensely. Today, we are dropping out very quickly, as we see the farce the portal and NIL are making of this great sport. Very sad...
