A friend of mine was on the LSU Tiger Club Board, who raises money for athletics and parcels it out based upon the departments request. When the Tigers hired Baylor's WBB coach his response was" great, now we can lose even more money ." UNT loses money on every sport it has so great, let's add baseball so we can lose even more money. Every dollar they pore into athletics is money that is lost to all other departments. I care about football and basketball but a real revenue sport is when money in is greater that money out.
We are missing money from our alumni base and participation from our students. Yet we continue to pore money into our football program hoping something will change but it hasn't.
The BOR and Administration are doing what they are paid to do--focus on increasing enrollment, focus on music and arts as the primary window to the university, and never make winning at revenue sports a priority. Its why we have 2% of the alumni who give to the program. And Denton doesn't even care about the team at all--very minuscule interest
I'm sure RV didn't care about the verbal demands of fans either, until they flew a banner calling for his job.
And comparing our situation to every other sub .500 team is disingenuous. Just in the AAC... FAU, Charlotte & Tulsa have already fired their 2nd year coaches. If they can afford to fire their coaches, but we can't then Mosley isn't qualified to be our AD. Under Mosley and Morris this football program is still a sh!t show. Name the other FBS teams that started their season 5-1 and have now lost 5 straight games? I'll wait.
