That dump of a place being paid for is the only positive thing it has going for it. We rarely get it to half capacity. And we have maybe got it beyond 7k 5 or 6 times...ever. It's a terrible venue for a program that pulls 3k on average and surges to 5k on big games...7k on the very rare occasion. There is no need for it... but it is paid for... So, I guess it has that going for it.
I am not the first to suggest that if NT were about as far away from DFW as Waco is, we would have a more enthusiastic following. Lubbock, I always thought, is too far from the Metroplex but its isolation and being the only game in town, is quite admirable for it Red Raider fervor.

would be nice to a big back close to goal line and short first downs. He might be able to break some short yardage situations into big plays with this size. Juco with one year of eligibility that is wild in this age.
I think Morris is a great play caller, but not a head coach. Game management has been terrible the last two years. Going for it so many times on fourth down and not getting it and putting our defense in bad situations. And clock management and using timeouts. It’s hard being a head coach and a play caller. You get lost in the moment and don’t do what’s best for the team when you are just worried about the offense.
If it is a basketball only it needs to be smaller. 4-5k at the most, no upper bowl unless they are suites. It will also make tickets a little harder to get and people want what they cant have.
