I don't think anyone can deny that Mac did a very good job on stressing academics to the team.  NT has come a long way from the DD years.

Cinnamon deserves much more credit for this than just a blurb.   Kudos to her efforts and the efforts of any/all tutors and advisers under her direction.

Isn't this what the whole thing is ultimately about?  They're student athletes, right?  It makes me feel good when I see stories of athletes making use of the educational opportunities provided them be it football or tennis or swimming, or any other sport.

I read this thread and I have this weird feeling in my stomach.   Not unpleasant.     I think that is what it feels like when you actually read something positive in a UNT sports forum ;)

How naive.  It's all about recruiting sexual predators and protecting them while in school, arranging fake classes, having tutors do the players' homework, slipping them a little cash when they are short, fixing up their parents homes, altering their SAT scores and more.  That's how they big boys do it and if we had a AD worth his salt, we would be doing it, too!

 

 

 

Joking aside, that's great news and congratulations!
