This guy, right up in the front row.

If it was UNT PD, you should've told him there was an expired meter. He would have called in SWAT.

You know, I was right there, in my car, and along comes a UNT policeman. I point to the car. I say, "Hey, that guy's double parked. "

He says, "I don't understand what you're saying. I'm on patrol, not tailgate, and you need to move along."

My football day ended much, much, much better than it began.

On the longer completion to Terrell it looked like if the throw wasn't short he would've walked into the endzone. Was that the case from all angles? Because I guess I complained on that play by shaking my head while I clapped. But all in all there wasn't much to complain about today.

Running out of water early in the third. C'mon, we were hoping for a sell out and run out of water on a hot day?

And what the hell is up with charging $1 for a cup of ice? Isn't it enough that I'm paying $4 for a bottled water?

I reject this complaint. An cup of water is an extra outside of the bottle of water, thus an up charge is appropriate.

His completions were all ugly other than the TD that got called back.

This is an actual complaint that should be pointed out to the higher ups.

The program didn't include the Heart of Dallas Bowl win. It seemed odd they had the season record correct, but didn't list the bowl.

I only got a beer when I walked in before kick off. There was no one in line. Concessions for me where great as usual. I'm guessing lines are so long because you must

be 18 to serve alcohol. Since so many high schools use concessions as funds raisers the kids cannot serve you beer. So, fewer concessions can serve the tasty

beverage.

Should have dumped a bunch of trash on the car. No harm does but does send a message.

That's a dickbag way to park, right there. I kind of wonder if someone would park like that if people stood and watched them do it. Also, if they don't want paint scratches so badly, they'd park further away, not hog two spaces and risk going from minor scratches to getting keyed up.

No, the lines were long because demand was high and they only sold at a few concessions stand. And I did see any kids working at the beer concessions on my 3 trips to get beer.

I'm pissed because my son plays in the Denton Youth Football League and we were told the kids would form a spirit line on the field and cheer the team on when they came out for halftime. Instead they lined the kids up under the cover right next to the locker room door. Half the kids couldn't see. Many parents came to the game expecting to see their little ones on the field. The kids were all disappointed they didn't get to go onto the field. Whoever set that up completely dropped the ball.

Are you sure they weren't on the field? It sure looked like we were playing a youth football team from University Park.

My understanding is the AD gets a % of ad the revenue generated by Beyond the Green. Why wasn't it promoted at every stoppage of play? Why isn't it mentioned at all.

Even if we didn't get a %, it's such a high quality production that just seeing it would raise the value of the program in the non die hard fans.

How about preview clips during the long TV timeouts?

We don't even promote our next game sufficiently enough, let alone a TV show.

      Eric Morris needs to go

      I just hope Jared has been working the phones trying to gather up the money to get rid of this guy. We need to cut our losses before he tanks us like Mac did and we end up getting pummeled by some FCS program again.

      Eric Morris needs to go

      Regarding the guys with no FBS HC experience, I personally have no issue with that. If we pluck a HC from a lower level, it needs to be somebody with extensive HC experience. There's guy who spend almost 10 years as a lower level HC. Examples include Lance Leipold of Kansas who went 109-6 over 8 seasons at D3 Wisconsin-Whitewater before being hired at Buffalo. Bob Chesney of James Madison went 111-46 over the course for 14 seasons at various D2 and FCS schools. There's guys out there to be plucked. My choice is to promote from within with Cobbs. Cobbs may not work at HC and I know it's a huge leap in responsibility but you won't know unless you try and others haven't worked out. He's worked wonders at RB and he's been doing it for a while. I'm sure he's made connections over the course of his playing and coaching career and would surround himself with experienced winners. My biggest thing is he loves this school and would want to succeed for the love of the school and not just for his own career. I looked back at Boise State head coaches since 2001 and found every single BSU HC spent time coaching at BSU prior to becoming HC and a few played at BSU as well. Several were promoted to HC from within, some went and became coordinators elsewhere before returning as their HC, and only 2 had prior HC experience, Bryan Harsin and Dan Hawkins. Harsin actually left to become Texas's co-OC and then Arkansas State's HC for a 1 year before returning to BSU as their HC but he'd been a coordinator there prior and played at BSU. I believe he's currently on the market and only 48 if we wanted somebody with experience though poor recruiting was a complaint at Auburn. Boise State kind of debunks the whole "prior HC experience" requirement, though.

      Keebler has to go!

      Agreed. I would only do it again for a huge name that would excite the fan base, but make the contract heavily based on incentives over guaranteed money. For the Morris-type hires, three years with triggers to extend the contract automatically, like a conference championship buys the coach an extra year with a slight raise. Otherwise it is an annual discussion and negotiation.

      IF we have to keep Morris 🤢

      I would have already fired Morris but if he stays it needs to be with several conditions. 1) hand over play calling duties to an OC, either bringing in someone or elevating Davis or Cobbs to the position. (I think Davis already has the title but we know it is meaningless). 2) bring in a new ST coach 3) replace the strength and conditioning staff. Too many injuries this season and the team is gassed by the end of the game and getting steamrolled. 4) new DC needs to run a system that can stop the run and must be able to adapt throughout the season to account for opponents and personnel losses. And all of the above needs to be overseen by the AD’s office. And no contracts for more than one year. Obviously this means replacing most of the staff, which at its core means we should really fire Morris and bring in an experienced HC who already knows how to build a staff. But if we are being cheap, at least the assistants don’t require buy outs. I would also like to see the AD renegotiate Morris’ contract to reduce the base salary/buyout and increase the incentives for accomplishments, including bowl wins and championships.
