UNT to where?

Hopefully this Poll loads

[Mean Green 93-98]

By "MWF" I assume you mean MWC?

Anyways, I picked the AAC because it is our best option that lies within the realm of reality in the near future.  It's not a significantly better conference than the MWC, but it makes better geographic sense.  And either of them is better than C-USA, which frankly is going the wrong direction.  Banowsky's philosophy of adding schools based on market above accomplishment has proven to be the failure most of us thought it would be.

50% at AAC right now. What standards we have. Wow

Though true, we have help pile on to that said failure.

If you're gonna let me dream....I picked sec.  :)

I picked the MWC, only because what the USAF reason for not going to the big 12 is, we can't compete in recruiting with the big boys.   We lost a local player to UTSA, UTSA I say. Denton is a better college town.

[GMG_Dallas]

If we can pick any conference I pick Pac 12. I love the academic standards associated with many of those schools and would like to be associated with the likes of Stanford, UCLA, and others. Plus with the amount of jucos in Arizona and California we got this past recruiting cycle it makes sense and would help keep that going.

[UNT90]

Useless poll when you can only pick one. 

Every conference listed is better than CUSA. So I'd vote for every single one.

[NM Green]

I picked Pac 12 too because our style of play will translate well to that league and the Cali schools and Buffs get a nice footprint and access to the North Texas recruiting scene.

Same. We offer a lot to a P5 conference but years of mediocre sports at best is what has stunted our growth.

I agree. I just think we need to demonstrate we finally have our shit together by either kicking ass where we are or in a marginally higher conference FIRST. Then we wouldn't be the red-headed stepchild when we knock on the SEC's door.

Somehow I think that the MWC will have to precede the PAC. Unless Seth gets us a quick national championship of course.

[UNTLifer]

No to anything west coast. I picked the Big XII because of geography and I think they are a better conference than most think. Texas likes to bully the rest of the conference. If their commissioner had any backbone, he would call them on it. 

[GMG24]

SEC, because it is football King.

[Got5onIt]

SEC. aTm needs a travel partner, right?

[UNT 90 Grad]

Do we assume all conferences are equally open to expansion?   Otherwise, Big 12 is the easy answer.   Easier to walk through a partially opened door than a wall.  

[UNT Mean Green]

PAC 12, along with Houston, San Diego State, and BYU...

 

[GreenTexan13]

I picked the Pac 12. They are a respectable conference, bringing in National championship caliber teams like the SEC. I also think the Pac would like to expand their exposure into the Texas market as well. Teams in Cali and Oregon would love to get exposure in this state. However, (minus the fact that this is a very, very, very wishful thinking thread) I would be afraid that if the Big 12 implodes, there are going to be a flood of Texas teams up for grabs. 

I just think the Big 12 is already saturated with the Texas market, that they would be looking elsewhere... And that includes Houston. The SEC seems like they aren't in a rush to add anyone anyways.

[MeanGreenTexan]

If we're dreaming... Where's the NFC East?    

Look, the ultimate end goal should be something like Big12, but we're at the bottom right now.  It is nowhere near realistic for UNT to go straight from the bottom of C-USA to any better conference, let alone a P5.  We have to work our way up.    For this reason, I chose the AAC.   The MWC would be great as well.   Gotta win first though.

[Green P1]

Back the Belt!!!

[meanJewGreen]

You're telling me we can't get into the Ivy league? 

[GreenGonzo]

"Build the Belt,"  LOL!!!

[greenminer]

No way.  Why should we change? They're the ones who suck.

 

[oldguystudent]

Sky's the limit, I say!

[Grant.UNT]

I picked CUSA because I want to see us dominate our local rivals, and then we can focus on moving to the BIG12. I don't think we need to be thinking about a move until we can dominate CUSA though.
