  1. Please don't get Plum started.
  2. The guaranteed money could mean that they could wind up with their tail over a barrel. I'd rather us offer a very lucrative incentive based contract, something like 1 million a year plus $400K for every win past 5. That's $3.8 million for an undefeated regular season, another $400K for CCG win, and another $400K for a bowl win. Yes, that could be an enormous amount of money by our standards if we were to win a national championship, but I think it is also an acceptable risk. It's North Texas, the surge in ticket sales and alumni donations would easily offset the costs. .
  3. I believe this is how it is set. OU and UT are set to start in the SEC in fall 2025. Houston led the way for the four new Big XII schools to join while Texas and Oklahoma are still in the conference. Theoretically, there would be 14 schools in the Big XII for the 2023 and 2024 seasons. The six AAC additions will move at the same time as the four entering the Big XII. The Big XII may then invite two or more schools, scheduled to join at the same time OU and UT actually depart. The Big XII may also stay at twelve but I doubt they will. If the Big XII does take these additional schools it will likely be for the 2025 season. The AAC and MWC will then try to backfill for 2025 accordingly depending on how many are to be lost from each conference. That's when we get La Tech back.
  4. I feel bad for our new conference mate. Well, at least we won down there today. I guess the Dallas teams vs Houston Teams ended in a tie.
  5. That may be the case. A player can participate in four games and still have a red-shirt season. You don't really want to play him earlier than next week because, if he earns the starting nod, he'd have to burn a year of eligibility to play in the season's last game. Hopefully Seth will be able to start getting playing time this week for some of these players. I know there's a lot of fans that would love to see Pioneer Kid and K-Mart get some snaps. .
  6. I'm too old. Can I just storm the beer shelf in the fridge?
  7. 1st down at NT 40 55 seconds left
  8. DAMN!!! Owls out to 47
  9. 3rd and 10 at their own 11
  10. Rice returns kick to the 11 their own 11 1:58
  11. WooHoo!!! 24 - 17 2:03 left
  12. Would that affect us, and how would it? Assuming they still start the season hosting a FCS team, will they ever play their only remaining non-conference game on the road vs a G-5 school? .

  13. That's from happier times when the department staff wore green and white. Those times are long gone and, other than a few, the staff has gone full mandyhag with the grays and black.
  14. I hope that UTSA finds the money to retain Traylor's services, and I also would like to see Sonny stay at SMU. The ability to retain good coaches will help our American Conference grow in stature. We want to beat those schools at their best. That's our challenge, not to just beat them when they become miserable again.
  15. Full Size (68") reversible NORTH TEXAS knit scarf. (the upper photo is the accurate color) Thank You to Wren and Athletic Department
  16. Yes, this week's hodgepodge is white 1967 jerseys with a diving eagle glued on the neckline, paired with generic black pants and an undesirable black helmet. It's not gaudy ugly, it just looks poor.
  17. Hopefully it's just a classy way of equipment people admitting that they are in over their heads and subtly tendering their resignations. Possibly they can gain employment at schools that they actually care about, and maybe those colleges will give them carte blanche to jack around ad nauseum. I really don't care, as long as its not here.
  18. You've just shown me a coach that can fight through adversity, and you didn't even mention that his starting quarterback this year was lost for the season prior to their recent Syracuse game. Fuente is looking better with every article and post I read about him. Funny thing is that there's no way in Hades that we'd have a shot at hiring him if all that crap didn't happen. That is, if there is a coaching change at North Texas.
  19. Yeah, and they could call us thee Emerald Tide.
  20. Incredible show guys. I am amazed at how strait forward and open Wren is concerning scheduling, conference realignment, financing, and facility plans. There was a time when Rick V used to have to keep his cards so close to his chest, mostly because of our then shoestring budget. Times are so much better now, and it's almost impossible not to have total faith in Wren. Now...if he'll just start having our teams play in Green and White using our current logos.
