We couldn't even get Mark Cuban up to Denton to watch Indiana play on a Mavs off-night. You know, the school where he built a company so he could hear their games in Dallas. Not a chance we get Garrett, Romo, and Murray to the Pit.

Maybe we just need Dunbar to convince a few of his Cowboy friends.

On his team's hand signal.. I think he's going for the SMU pony ears, but that thumb probably shouldn't be out.. I guess he's #GoMeanGreen!

Interesting back story to this photo. Someone asked him, "Coach, who do you think will win on September 12th?"

Confused on not, the guy seems to be doing well. I would really hate to see SMU join their old private conference mates, Baylor and TCU at the top of the college football world. I hope NT's AD and coaches get their act together, to move up what has become a very stagnant and bottom tier program.

You won't need to worry about that. SMU is going nowhere anymore than we are or any other Southwest based G5 program. TCU and Baylor are also just on borrowed time at the P5 level when the Big XII's GOR runs out in 2025. When the Texoma 4 split off and head west to the Pac-16, Baylor and TCU are far more likely to come back down to SMU's level of competition than SMU is ever going to rise up. TCUs ascendancy was the result of perfect timing--a huge run up to a Rose Bowl win and #2 ranking, combined with A&M leaving the conference and the Northern Big 12 schools forcing the other three Texas schools in the Big XII to take the Frogs, just for more recruiting possibilities in Texas. Plus, TCU joining the conference was quick and relatively inexpensive. Baylor got in because of their political ties in Austin in 1994, but let's face it--that ain't gonna save them this time.

As for UNT, I doubt seriously that there is any thought about changing anything in regards to the revenue sports here. We got Apogee and CUSA...and that is where this bus has parked for the long term. Nothing more left for the BOR to really do now--we improved the facilities and moved up to the conference that the fans clamored to move up to, not to mention a long-term series with hated-rival SMU. Success all the way around in their minds...
