Just noticed that they had the best class in the SBC. Withers looking like a solid hire for the Bobcats.

I was checking out the UTEP message board, not a word about football or signing day all about basketball. Looks like Floyd maybe out at the end of the year. Wish we were caught up in basketball. We have become pretty bad in all sports and it makes it hard to try and be positive about our future. I don't get what the problem is, well benford can't coach but football. Denton is a great town and UNT is a great school. Denton is a college town, el paso, san antonio not so much. UTEP is like a big high school, go to school and drive home to the parents house or an apartment. I attended UTEP and NTSU and it was like light years in the two. NTSU was challenging and I had a great time on campus and the local area. Back in those days a lot of the kids went home to mommy's home for the weekend. They missed a great time in Denton.

I would have been okay never knowing that. Thanks.

We would be 8th in SBC. Only at UNT would 12th in a 14 team conference be considered average. Expect more.

I haven't seen people saying this. If they are, they're not paying attention. Just about everyone is concerned with this class.

Well they are known for their basketball team even though they suck this year

I hate getting beat in football by a team known for it's basketball.

Last time I recall seeing the total endowment coffers of both schools TSU-San Marcos had $119,000,000 to UNT's $100,000,000 (Depending on the economy & a school's investments these numbers tend to fluctuate

BEEP! BEEP! Last time I checked TSU-San Marcos had over 38,000+ enrollment compared to UNT's 37,000 +

i think they have turned their season around, they made adjustments something we seem to be unable to do.

I had no idea they were so big. It must have happened when they changed their name from SWTSU to TSU.

He ruffled alot of HS coaches feathers down South from what I am hearing. Not sure if it was because of how he handled last class, or treated current (former) seniors but doesn't sound like he'll be welcome in too many schools down there.
