Same result. UNT fans want him fired and to not coach the rest of the season.

Insane if so. Stepping stone program, they should appreciate whatever time left they have with him.

Eric Morris quote

This isnt going to turn out like he thinks it will

1) Loses game "He threw the game"

2) Wins game "Hes taking our best players with him"

3) He gets fired either way, due to UNT needing to move on quickly

sure, but UNT is a stepping stone job...he knows it, the players know it...he isn't going out on a limb.

Yes but their fans want it to be more than that. Same with USF fans wanting to run G5 Golesh out now that the Arky rumors /news leaked.

They know they are a stepping stone but want someone to “elevate the program” to something more respectable.

I'm hoping that UNT wins the conference championship game and makes the playoffs. It would be a lot of free advertising for the Pokes.

As for him taking players, their star RB is from Shawnee, which is only an hour from Stillwater.

The UNT DC is the son of a former OKST DC, and his brother played for OKST.

Time to let him move on to full-time OSU coach. I understand North Texas is a stepping stone position but we don't need to be the doormat for him either.

Morris is almost as bad as Tom Herman. I personally hope OSU is unsuccessful and continues to lose. And OSU is in Houston next year for a game. May Wille Fritz show no mercy and run up the score.

Time to man up and have a little UNT pride. He needs to go.

MeanGreenTeeth Posted yesterday at 12:04 AM

Seriously, he should be fired. He’s completely screwed over his own players with the season almost over and so much on the line. Is gross and embarrassing that we’re letting him stay. He has let everyone down.

Universities should start negotiating clauses in coaches contracts to either prohibit or penalize coaches for interviewing with other programs during the season.

Signing MOU’s or even definitive contracts while still employed and in the middle of a season elsewhere should be grounds for damages beyond a defined buyout.

Imagine the potential losses UNT faces now with their head coach leaving while sitting 10-1 and on the brink of a championship and the CFP.

Millions of dollars in revenue potentially lost because of no fault of their own. They may be getting a buyout, but the potential losses are much higher than that. And it sucks for the fans.

This needs to be fixed ASAP
