I've never had a problem with charges/tickets, etc. Give or don't give, but why not talk to the ticket office before deciding. They do have an 800 number.

Why will we be playing at ASU for the 2nd year in a row when they have 6 home games scheduled ? That game could just as easily have been at Fouts by changing home teams. Still say our conference schedule doesn't make sense.

You can tell it's a slow time on the board when there's a lively 2 page discussion of uta & football

Should be doesn't mean it will happen. Why are we hosting the MUTS 2 years in a row & at Troy/Arky State/ULL 2 years in a row ? It certainly shouldn't have too been difficult to make some adjustments there. Oh well, after all it's the Sun Belt

What gives with the conference schedule ? Why do we have 3 home & 4 away again as we did last year ? If there's a fair rotation we should have 4 home and 3 away. At Troy, at Arky State, at ULL AGAIN ? Hosting the Muts & Florida Atlantic AGAIN ? They must throw darts at a map to determine the conference home & away games.

Arkansas State & the MUTS schedules were posted today. Ours should be out today or tomorrow since Sun belt teams are now releasing schedules.

KEYS The Mean Green is capable of getting on an offensive roll and beating every team in the Sun Belt, but this team will only go as far as its defense and rebounding will carry it. If the frontcourt players, especially Keith Wooden and Quincy Williams, play well, the Mean Green can win this tournament. If not, the Mean Green could lose in the first round.

Outstanding observation ! If we score more points, we should win !

Great article !

TD's football camp is far superior to a Junior Day. Bet others will be envious of UNT

Geeze. He's describing and commenting about the condition and convenience of the ATHLETIC FACILITIES. Mumble, crumble, moan.

Nope it's the University of Louisiana Branch @ Monroe and the University of Louisiana Branch @ Lafayette.

Apparenlty Sun Belt schedules will be released THIS WEEK.

Post from the Big East board. While it may not have a direct impact on the Big East, you may find the following of some interest as this relates to college football and the possibility of a new all sports conference. The future of Conference USA may be in some doubt. The reaons are as follows: 1. ECU has notified C-USA that we are starting to explore the possibility of leaving the conference for football independent status. This is a multi year process because of the Conference rules and the NCAA basketball tournament money. ECU basketball and Olympic sports would go to the Southern Conference 2. So Miss, UAB, Marshall and ECU (Memphis views on this are unknown at this time, as they are keeping their powder dry) are in initial talks about possibly leaving C-USA as a package. Tulane has indicated that they are happy where they are. 3. Initial discussions between the schools above include the possibility of forming a new all sports conference. Schools being talked about as possible new conference members include Troy, Fla Atlantic and Fla International. In addition, UT Chatt has indictaed some interest in upgrading to D-1 status. App State may be interested in the new conference along with a couple of the geographically approriate schools in the MAC. If there are eight schools willing to make the move it could be sooner rather than later. 4. Why? The answewr is two fold. The first and most important is that the Texas schools plus Tulsa have taken command of the conference and are pursuing policies that ECU, Marshall, USM and UAB view as being biased against the non-Texas schools. The old South West Conference mentality is starting to reemerge. That plus the enormous time and expense of sending teams from ECU and Marshall and to a lesser extent UAB and USM to Texas are driving factors. For example, the ECU basebal team flys by charter to most games and can be away from classes for up to four days. It is taking a toll on both the student athlets and the budget. 5. The notice that ECU may be leaving C-USA may also be part of the ongoing off the record contacts between ECU and the Big East about the possibility of ECU joining the Big East if a split does occur. 6. Prelimanary discussions are on going with no dead line for any action. It will be interesting to watch. 66PIRATE DOUBT ABOUT FUTURE OF CUSA ?

Why would we have any interest ?

The only 1A conference in the country where 2 members are in a constant, tiring food fight over their identity crisis. RV please deliver us from this quagmire!

In high school the quarterback is frequently the best athlete on the team. Many high school QB's that sign with colleges do so as athletes, WR's or DB's. Riley Dodge verbaled to Texas as an 'athlete', not a QB. It's understandable that backups may play other positions while waiting their turn as QB. Vizza was recruited as a QB and IMHO that's where he'll be at NT.

Careful, some of these threads DO NOT provide a proper venue for logic.

It's difficult to make true comparisons in these reports as different schools have different reporting procedures & criteria. Here's the UNT Department of Education site info. The "Not allocated by gender or sport" probably includes donations and student fees in the UNT report. http://ope.ed.gov/athletics/InstDetail.asp?CRITERIA=3

Riley did wait his turn at SLC. '06 was his first year (junior) to start.

They have ask for committments.

Don't forget UT-Arlington!
