A Long Look at the Roster

A question during Dan McCarney’s press conference prompted him to go down the road of talking about evaluating UNT’s roster and coaching staff at the end of the season.

I wrote about what McCarney had to say in today’s paper.

Basically, McCarney said that he is down 11 scholarships and has about a dozen guys out for the year with injuries, leaving the team shorthanded. UNT doesn’t feel comfortable playing in the nickel or the dime due to a lack of quality defensive backs and is not having enough guys contribute on special teams.

With that being the case, every roster spot is precious.

McCarney said he will take a long, hard look at everyone on the coaching staff and the roster at the end of the season. He said he isn’t handing out free rides any longer.

“There are no feelings of entitlement in this program that were probably pretty prevalent before I got here,” McCarney said. “We won’t let that happen under my leadership. You are not entitled to anything. You have to earn everything. If you are going to continue to be in this program, you are not going to hang out, lift weights, show up to practice, get your Nike uniform, your Nike T-shirt and shoes and then go disappear into the night. You had better be showing us on game day that you belong.”
