Expectations are rising in Denton, America, as North Texas hopes to finish above .500 for the first time since 2018. Head coach Eric Morris enters Year 3 with an 11-14 record over his first two seasons and he feels like the foundation that was set the first two years will pay dividends for the Mean Green in 2025.
“We played a lot of young guys these last couple of years and that should start paying off for us this year and next year,” Morris said. “There’s no way to replicate actually playing college football games and this roster has a lot of experienced players, even if it was at the FCS level or somewhere other than here.”
