Army of Dad

Benford is still here. I think it's more than fair for fans to stay home until he's gone. Men's basketball is one of two sports that some schools can actually make money and in the case a UNT, lose the least amount of money. Recruits are far more likely to be concerned about committing to a coach that doesn't develop talent, loses far more than he wins, and isn't likely to be here next year than they are going to be put off by small crowds watching bad basketball. I can judge the department that has retained this failure years longer than reasonable. They just trumpeted the increase in football attendance on Twitter. If he can finally get rid of Benford and fans start to come back then he can trumpet that improvement as well.

Gonna have to disagree with you on this. If anyone is paying attention (and I'd bet someone is now) a quick glance at the plummeting attendance numbers would be a major strike against Benford. It could be argued that every possible data point against retaining Benford any longer is beneficial to the program in the long term. Every possible data point might be necessary since despite all reasonable standards he's still here after losing 20 games twice in his first four seasons. Additionally, Benford has a bonus in his contract tied to season ticket numbers. Not buying or renewing season tickets can, IMO, quite fairly be used as a fan's vote of no confidence since the AD is using it as a metric of success.

Nope you missed one.

No coach is going to go through this much BS for a kid of that talent level. Do you have a specific instance where Stoops allowed a violent incident like this with a non-scholarship backup in mind?

No way this happens.

Solid work by @ADLER & @Kingwood Green tonight. ??

That's it right there. Proportionality of the force used. This video doesn't have any audio and only gives us a part o the story but it does show his force was far in excess of what was used against him and was was likely to be used against him. From this video only, she looks to have committed assault (don't know what the low level version in OK is) and he committed aggravated assault in response.

I'm bothered they used a shot of Frazier in a SMUt jersey...

Yeah, and if someone in a military style organization has something wrong with their uniform they may get 'gigged'. As for booming Sooners I believe they started the Oklahoma land rush by firing a cannon. Point being, those famous calls you referenced all happen(ed) in life. We agree

Please drive carefully. I'd hate to think of anything happening to the beer. ?

Anthony Wallace. No idea what he's been up to though.

I'm guessing you've never seen a pissed off bull hook someone with his horns?

How does one get UTSA fans to make any sound 'en masse' when they have so few fans to be any kind of mass?

McNeil, though he didn't stick here.

I've always thought we should append '-quidick' to a scandal instead of '-gate'

You don't want 4 star recruits? Of course, more than one would be huge for a team in this conference...

Not just the police as the school and AD have a big hand in it as well. Long read and of course doesn't cover everything, but does show plenty of issues that still didn't keep players off the field. http://nyti.ms/1EFiVEC http://nyti.ms/1EFiVEC

This guy was kicked out of FSU for breaking the law. Do you have any idea how difficult/rare that is? They find any excuse to keep a stud football player in school there.

I wonder if there will be just the normal trains that day or if they will have some special game day ones like last time. This time it's a workday so maybe the transit authorities won't feel the need to do any "special" runs.

AP all state honorable mention.

I don't know, there's usually a fair amount of 'stars/ratings don't really matter' posts after signing day...

And it's not like you have caught some flak for having an event that competed with another UNT event so fair play to give a little ribbing this time, IMO.

So this QB you are talking about had four P5 offers and he turned out to be pretty good. ?

Yes to stops in fair park and probable train changes. http://www.dart.org/maps/pdfmaps/dartrailsystemmap29aug16.pdf If you are coming from Denton (or anywhere along the DCTA line) you have to change to a DART train in Carrollton.

I don't think he eliminated that before season #2, but he reduced the number of quick subs. He's pretty much stopped that practice entirely. I only saw one instance this season where he told a player to go in and quickly changed his mind. In that instance the player didn't even make it to the scorers table, but once in a while this happens to most coaches and isn't a point of concern. That said, bits live on and I'd bet we get some jokes about number of suits a few times this season.
