Another Place .500 Isn’t Good Enough -Littrell Fired at UNT

So, in spite of finishing second in C-USA, making the title game this year, and going to a bowl in six out of his seven years, North Texas has fired Seth Littrell. He was 44-44.


Meanwhile at MT.

Must be nice to be associated with a school that wants to win and making bowl games isn’t viewed as the pinnacle of success.

FOOTBALL Future conference member news

So. Keeler from Sam Houston is rumored to be in line for other jobs. Liberty will have a new coach. Will they still be the cream of the crop for the conference?

And then there is this, which could knock out some 5-7 teams including Rice.

EDIT....will still require a waiver (which they have submitted) even if they win as this could be their 2nd FCS win.

MT Game Notes

SBU Game Notes

BASKETBALL Middle Tennessee vs Texas Tech, Fri Nov. 25th 1 pm, FloHoops

Blue Raiders vs Red Raiders this Fri. Tech is 3-1 & has good victories over Colorado (home) & Louisiana (away). A note on Colorado victory, became a free throw shooting contest. Tech shot 36-41 free throws. Their one loss was to Jackson State, a SWAC school with a ton of athletic transfers. Primary question to be shared with fellow posters is this is broadcast thru Flohoops. Has anyone here worked with or used Flohoops? Wondering about the video feed quality, & if it's worth having? I see it's $20 monthly, & certainly higher than ESPN PLUS. Wasn't sure how easy it is to cancel after ordering or if anyone is aware of free trial options. Any known info appreciated. Would like to see the ladies performance this Holiday weekend, but not sure the investment's worth it.

Northern Classic Recap

Published an article last night discussing my main takeaways from the Northern Classic. Big 3-0 stretch for Middle that should relieve some of the concern from the Winthrop and Missouri State losses. Lots of impressive feats accomplished in the event, hopefully that carries over to these last four big games of the non-conference season.
