I think that the reality is that we are just incredibly spare. I watched the NO Blwls and loved it, but absolutely nobody besides the diehards in this site ever cared. We drew flies to games at a toilet of a stadium. As FFR mentioned, we had some great wins, but we usually just UNT’d the bed in OOC play. Once we lost Scott Hall at QB, like Mason Fine or Derek Thompson, we fell apart.
Our alumni don’t care because the administration has never cared about winning. They don’t have to. We get plenty of new students every year. And they are completely content with music and arts being the primary window. Heck, a solid basketball program can’t get 35-40% of its arena filled. It never changes here because it’s not meant to change or ever will. It’s why 98% of the UNT alumni base walk away.
