Gambling AD One-Ups North Texas AD

[Greenrex]

The double open date comes in early October when the Tigers won't play for three weeks between an Oct. 1 date with Prairie View and a Oct. 22 road tilt with Mississippi Valley State.

I'd think back to back open dates would be as bad as opening with an open date and playing straight through. Neither is good.

Opening with a bye week is worse.  If we had a normal circumstance where you play a tune up opponent like an idaho, and then play SMU the following week, it could have resulted into 2 wins and a little momentum...flip side of that is if we won a few more games, Mac and Co would still be coaching, so I guess it may work out in the end.

So, basically, our AD is on par with one at a FCS school...shocker.

No, not having an opening day game is worse for fans and not having a bye week is worse for players.

RV's got this.

The title confused the hell out of me. I was thinking this: Tulsa fires AD over gambling probe. 

Or this.

I gotta agree on this one. Chalk one up to the sweatervest. You'd have to try pretty hard to form a schedule worse than ours was last year.

Man this thread confused me. Why is a double bye week gambling? Lol

 

Was it Isaiah Thomas who said "it's crazy enough it just might work"?

RV blows this guy out of the water in the poor job performance category.

Yep

I was hoping that RV got caught gambling against us. A highly profitable venture to say the least.

The typo in the title of this thread makes for a much more interesting story.
