How about the NT Daily and their coverage on the basketball teams! Sidway is really impressing me, he's developing these writers into actually writers unlike a lot of Vito's post. (I never really read the NT Daily before) I liked how the NT Daily recapped the game and posted the same night, like how ESPN does it. Unlike, how Vito's blog was a couple quotes, @FirefightnRick tweet and a CUSA tweet posted the next day at 11:50 AM. I know he was working on a piece for the paper but even the paper version wasn't written as well, it too was mainly quotes. Then, too top it all off he had a negative quote in the middle of the piece.... Only six were available by the end of the night after three UNT players fouled out. A short roster was just one of the reasons expectations for UNT were low heading into the season. UNT finished 5-24 a year ago in its final season under Mike Petersen and was picked to finish last in Conference USA in the league’s preseason coaches poll. Why bring up last year? Last year has nothing to do with this year. Who cares about the preseason, the season has started. NT Daily started off saying that they lost in to San Fran in the opening game (fact and current), but ended the paragraph talking about the win and never stopped talking about the positives for UNT. Has anyone else noticed the change? Read these two post and tell me which one excites you more as a reader? http://ntdaily.com/womens-basketball-completes-historic-upset-of-no-17-oklahoma/ http://meangreenblog.dentonrc.com/2015/11/huge-win-for-the-unt-women.html/ Or even the section in the UNT Notebook http://www.dentonrc.com/sports/sports-headlines/20151117-unt-notebook-mitchell-makes-waves-with-win-over-ou.ece I'd drive up to Denton game to catch the woman and men play back to back after reading Clay Massey's piece. I'd go back to GMG and complain about RV in every thread after reading Vito's. Damnit, I told myself I wouldn't bring up RV in a thread that has nothing to do with the Athletic Dept. Sidenote- Does anyone use AD for Athletic Director and AD for Athletic Department?
