Report

Oh, it must have been an old salary quoted in an article I read today.

According to USA Today, McDermott made just over $2.9 million this year. When he signed his extension last year, CBS reported he was amongst the highest paid Big East coaches. https://sportsdata.usatoday.com/ncaa/salaries/mens-basketball/coach/3180 https://www.cbssports.com/college-basketball/news/creightons-greg-mcdermott-agrees-to-four-year-deal-making-him-one-of-the-big-easts-highest-paid-coaches/ My favorite part of the CBS article: "It's a notable development because McDermott had been speculated as a candidate for the Ohio State opening, in addition to the looming Louisville vacancy. "There is no place I would rather be for the rest of my career than Creighton," McDermott said in statement."

Of the future P4 one-for-one series, we get the Home game first with only Washington St. and Missouri. I would not be surprised if Tech, Baylor and Colorado cancelled their return games with us for just the penalty fee and scheduled additional home games to get more revenue for their NIL. We should always try to get the Home game first in those P4 series going forward, if there are any. https://fbschedules.com/ncaa/north-texas/ Future North Texas Non-Conference Opponents 2025 08/30 - Lamar 09/06 - at Western Michigan 09/13 - Washington State 09/27 - South Alabama 2026 09/05 - at Wyoming 09/12 - UNLV 09/19 - at Texas State 09/26 - HCU 2027 09/04 - Tarleton State 09/11 - Texas Tech 09/18 - Wyoming 10/02 - at San Jose State 2028 09/02 - at Baylor 09/09 - Louisiana Tech 2029 09/01 - Baylor 09/08 - North Alabama 09/15 - FIU 2030 08/31 - Texas State 09/07 - at Washington State 09/14 - Missouri 09/21 - at Wyoming 2031 09/13 - at Missouri 09/20 - Western Michigan 2032 09/04 - at Colorado 09/25 - San Jose State 2033 09/03 - Colorado

That's maybe the weakest schedule we've had in a long time. Could be an "opportunity" year, but I tend to think our new QBs are not going to be as good as the last guy we had. Until the freshman gets his shot...then all bets are off. That kid looks like a firework waiting to go off on tape. I could be wildly off about the Albany/Miami transfer, though. I can't even tell you any of these guy's names off the top of my head without having to look it up...which goes to show, how the heck do you have any semblance of what to expect nowadays with all the roster turnover?!

What is your opinion on soccer's Hedlund? 👀
