Eric Morris Stresses All-in Message at North Texas Despite Impending Move to Oklahoma State
Eric Morris leads North Texas to an 11-1 season and will coach through the American Conference title and potential College Football Playoff before joining Oklahoma State.
- On Friday, Eric Morris spoke after North Texas' regular-season finale, addressing his move to become Oklahoma State's next head coach following the 52-25 win over Temple.
- Eric Morris cited his Big 12 roots as the draw, and AD Chad Weiberg tabbed him to replace longtime coach Mike Gundy after Oklahoma State dismissed Gundy following two difficult seasons.
- With an 11-1 record, North Texas produced its first 11-win season and has a top offense averaging north of 500 yards per game, supporting Morris's reputation.
- Morris plans to stay and coach through the American Conference championship next weekend and CFP games while recruiting for Oklahoma State Cowboys football and apologizing that North Texas players learned the news online.
- The timing matters for both North Texas' playoff hopes and OSU's rebuild, as a conference win would likely send North Texas to the CFP while Morris plans to carefully dissect the Oklahoma State program.
