  1. If this catches fire with metroplex media, it could get real grim, real quickly.
  2. All three of the possible revenue sports are on life support...so sad to not have at least one fall back program.
  3. Nice reflections on the situation, Harry.
  4. It's tough to recruit kids to North Texas if you keep telling yourself that it is tough to recruit kids to North Texas.
  5. Television rules...fact of life.
  6. An enigma wrapped in a riddle...just like season ticket count.
  7. Sounds like the foundation is laid for another Benford disaster. Don't forget it was called 'madness.'
  8. I think that luck plays a big part in 'the fit', once the new coach gets to Denton. Some will love Denton and the challenges here, while some (who thought UNT was their best option) might find that they just cannot hack it here. Hope the gods are on our side this time.
  9. If he is incapacitated due to health, do we have to buy out his contract?
  10. Amusing departure from the agony that is North Texas.
  11. I stated some time ago that if I was athletic director, the first time Mac said this about how hard it was to recruit to North Texas I would have fired him on the spot.
  12. If Harris is the next Tristan Thompson, it should be fun to watch.
  13. Tactical point...how visible will the banner be at 6pm when the sun is coming down...just curious.
  14. If Benford fails, the hammer will come down on the AD.
  15. Once again I reiterate that Hurley had nothing to do with the return to D-1 football. His only contribution was his decision not to go to D-2 football. At that time it was move up to D-1 or drop down to D-2, as the NCAA was going to dissolve D1-AA (which they did not do, as it turns out).
  16. You can bet that it will be some politically correct group of 'experts.'
  17. Yep, no one over 50 need apply. Relating to college age kids is very important. Intercollegiate athletics is a young person's game.
  18. Amazed that there are 17 of them...I was thinking 3.
  19. As a veteran of the 1988 trip to Huntington, be very careful in Huntington. It is not a very pleasant place to go as a visitor.
  20. Demographics in the USA will ultimately unseat football as a popular sport...don't know how soon.
  21. Let's see the power if the press. Most pressure for RV has been internal. Interesting to see if he can withstand pressure from the local press.
  22. Excellent read....you guys are really the future of the program. Presidents get paid good money to hear valid and thoughtful complaints about any aspect of their university.
  23. I saw it mentioned on this board that the univ. is considering a search COMMITTEE...this is not good news for RV.
  24. The guy just kept hanging on by the skin of his teeth at the D1 level as an assistant at various venues. He is not a head coach candidate at this point in career.
  25. If I had a head coach running around telling everyone who would listen that it was really hard to recruit to North Texas I'd fire him on the spot. The legacy of piss poor football that Mac inherited will be the same legacy he leaves his successor. One thing that I have noticed, is that the fan base here seems a lot more resilient than previous years. We seem to roll with the punches and show up better than in previous years.
