Evan and Harry discuss the UNT football State of the Union as well as discuss the upcoming homecoming game against FAU and other odds and ends. We try to focus on the positives this week but alas it proved difficult so we veer off into some Denton love.

Somehow I screwed up last night and couldn't get into the audio portion of the podcast and I really missed it. Jumped in and out of the Chat room but nothing worked for me. Glad to have the replay of Harry and Evan. Cogido

Now I've listened to the Podcast replay...

Couldn't agree more that player evaluation , specifically at the QB position, for some reason failed. Mac has probably already had several migraines about that. As a CEO I got my butt kicked a couple of times TOO, but good leaders rapidly adjust. Mac is a good leader and good for UNT and its community, but he will have to act on this issue. He knows he can't just hope for the best.

Your comments on the O-line... again, I think if any of our QBs could read the defense, and then make a few consistent passes, the run game would break open. I don't blame the O-line for the lack of run production. If I am the other team's D-Coordinator I would simply box in and blitz all the time with these QBs. If a pass gets completed on me, not really a big deal, probably won't happen much - so box-in. That's not the O-line's fault.

I really do see UNT improving in the future. It has too many tangibles in place of late; bowl win, stadium, student growth, nice looking red shirts and renewed interest developing. I would like to hear Harry and Evan discuss how the G-5 conferences might organize to put out a great college football product in light of the new semi-pro P-5 carve out. Maybe I missed a previous discussion, my bad.

GO MEAN GREEN, BEAT FAU. RUN THE TABLE MAC !!

      “Student Athletic” in college sports. JJ Watts’ take on the subject.

      And the NFL, with 32 teams, only provides a maximum of 16 games a week. The need for more games is there. But people won’t watch leagues that are considered “minor”. What they will watch, in person and on TV, are the kids who will be in the NFL, representing the schools of states and cities they live in or went to or grew up near. The problem is that there aren’t more than probably 30 brands that really move the needle for ratings and attendance. If the CFB powers decided to coalesce into the following schools, the media and most of the CFB fandom wouldn’t even think twice about those left behind. Washington, Oregon, USC, UCLA, Texas, A&M, OU, Nebraska, Michigan, Michigan State, Wisconsin, Iowa, Missouri, Arkansas, LSU, Ole Miss, Bama, Auburn, Georgia, FSU, Florida, Clemson, South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia Tech, Tennessee, Kentucky, Ohio State, Notre Dame, and Penn State. These schools play in huge stadiums that are almost always full when they play someone else on the list, they represent 99% of the eyeballs for TV, and the media cover them big time. And their alumni give tons of money to these programs. Sure, there are other programs that could meet some of the criteria I mentioned above, but nobody is clamoring to make sure they get to watch Utah vs Texas Tech or West Virginia vs BYU as if it’s the same as a game between the 30 teams mentioned above. At some point, the government will make its way to taking fees for athletics away from the students and making it paid for by alumni and local supporters. When that happens, CFB at places like here will probably end.

      UC-Irvine (4/1/25)

      What would be the top 3 places to see a game? Off hand, I’d say, Allen Fieldhouse, Cameron Indoor Stadium, and Pauley Pavilion, but Hinkle would be on the list for the next few places to see a game.

      NCAA Tournament Thread

      They have the most money and the most talent. It’s probably going to be at least half SEC. I figure Florida and Auburn have great chances, while Tennessee has a fair chance, and Bama over Duke seems like a very low chance of happening.

      Houston vs Texas Tech for the title in San Antonio would feed families.

      WBB: 3/27 @ Troy

      Yep. As much as I love what Burton has done/is doing, we are very sloppy in our play.
