Which is why we should incorporate our entire UNT system in our advertising. No other university offers the post grad opportunities that UNT does, yet we're silent on the subject. We are the giant that continues to sleep and squander opportunities.

I will say their ads stress their "superior" academics while our ads stress low cost, good food, fun times. IMHO, they market to the more serious student while we market for numbers and diversity. Nothing wrong with that if that's what you want, but may be one reason we're not taken seriously as a top flight university in spite of our Tier One status. I may be wrong but I've always taken issue with our advertising that looks almost juvenile when compared to say...UTD. Our latest commercial shows a recent grad accepting an entry level, office cubicle job. Probably realistic, but not exactly lofty goals. I'd like to see us stress our academicly diverse opportunities through our Ststem (medical school, law school) and the lofty positions earned by it. Don't get me wrong, I'm proud to be an alum and I'm not slamming anyone's degree or professional standing. My beef is with our marketing strategy. That is all.

Matt, you're a great fan and a great American! Thanks for doing what you're doing.

Transfer?

I'd hate to lose Memphis and USF. Both are premiere institutions.

Well, I'm sure you're happy being a whore. Enjoy and go away.

Trust me. No one is interested except you.

They hang around here because it makes them feel better about themselves. Smut knows down deep that nobody wanted them until they prostituted themselves and begged to get in bed with the ACC. Hell, at least Houston earned their way into the Big 12 without having to oral copulate to get in.

Jealous stang?

Smut still doesn't bring anything to the table, sports wise, except money. Not taking revenue for 10 years reeks of desperation, but ya, do what you have to do. You guys, along with the others were backfill in the event FSU, Clemson and the others bail on you. Be thankful for your deep pockets and get over yourselves because you're not what you use to be.

Smut seems to forget that the SWC left them, Rice and TCU in the dust and no P5 has wanted them since. They had to buy their way into the ACC when most of those schools didn't want them regardless.

I'll bet he becomes injury prone, the older he gets.

Thanks, Captain Obvious.

YES! Classy! I likey!

Great job, as usual Harry. BTW, have you considered a job within the Athletic dept? UNT could use a mover and shaker like you! Thanks for all you do.

TB3 baby!

I think a financial statement should be provided to every doner that includes annual and YTD balances and how much is paid out and to whom. As a doner, I think I'm entitled to that information. Additionally, who makes the decision as to how much we pay a player? The coaches? The AD? Is the a cap as to the amount any one player can receive?

And I still haven't gotten a satisfactory answer as to why we have two collectives. Is one football only and the other for basketball and everyone else? Which one serves the greater good?

I have given to Harry's collective as did others and still saw our roster decimated by other poaching schools. I realize this is a necessary evil, but it's discouraging to give hard earned money when an athlete is going to leave regardless.

I hear ya, but I hope a guy with this type of resume will want to leave his mark and leave something better than when he got here. A push for excellence. Guys like him don't get to where they are by doing a half assed job.

Certainly has the resume. Any thoughts on how he feels about athletics?

Well, at least they get updates.

Apparently no one else does either.

Will he play for us in the TBT?

Has he actually signed?
