It's ok, UNT has scheduled a home and home with E. Memphis Divine Wreath College for next year. That's right, both games played next year.

Gotta get that win total up to save Benford's job, don't ya know.

Apparently win totals are not what matters when it comes to Benford.

Memphis and UAB have been rivals for decades. Both are good, both will create interest for each other's fanbase, and most importantly, will probably get a national TV broadcast.

Right now, we literally provide zero of those things that UAB offers Memphis and its fanbase in hoops.

Besides, RV has to schedule home games that Bumford can win, so that they both can get an extension, as well as road games that we can make money from...#theRVway

Absolutely not. Or he'd be gone. Benford is in the best place for him. An AD that wants to prove himself of worth and can never be wrong. As far as I'm concerned Benford or anyone else that get hired by Rick is golden and at this point they probably know that. Unless you're neck deep in vodka and cliche quotes, of course.
