Coach Walsh resigned recently.  There appears to be more to the story but that is that is all that is being reported at this time.

Any info on our history/relationship with him at Rockwall or Horn? Looks like he was there for 7 years and 5 years at Horn before that?

Also,

"In addition to his extensive resume on the field, Webb is also the president of the Texas High School Coaches Association."

I guess Walsh can give Texas State the same treatment:

Was Walsh an Oklahoma State alum because a lot of his players seemed to have gone there? Hopefully Webb will encourage his players to at least not shun UNT. Not saying that Walsh did that, but I suspect that he may have.

It looks like my suspicions about Walsh may be wrong. I just looked at UNT's roster over the last 10 years and we have had about 7 players from Guyer over the same time period. Now about 3 went somewhere else prior to arriving at UNT. In that same time frame, I only saw one other player from all the other Denton schools and that is Tyreke Davis from Ryan. So, Walsh's players came to UNT more than all the other Denton schools combined. In that same time frame, Webb would have been at Mesquite Horn and Rockwall. I did not see any players from Rockwall at all and the players I saw from Mesquite Horn would have been in high school at Horn after he left. Elex Woodworth could have been a freshman during Webb's last year, but I doubt he would have had any influence on him by the time he was a senior.

Almost all of those guys were walkons. Shilleci in 2013 and Dillman in 2015 are the only players we have signed out of Guyer since they opened in 2005.

Thanks for that information. I didn't know as much.

For what it's worth, it was discovered that Walsh was drinking at a casino during school hours, only wish he could have gambled on UNT a bit more..

All joking aside, I seriously doubt this will improve the pipeline we all wish would happen with the Denton schools.  Reality is that very few athletes from Denton county want to play at the next level right here in the same place at a school like UNT.  We can blame Walsh all we want but we get roughly the same number of recruits from Lake Dallas, the other Denton schools, Lewisville ISD schools, and even Argyle as we do from Guyer.

      I gotta wonder, does this season spell wholesale changes in Norman? This is NOT the kind of season that fans (and donors) expect up there.

      Another NIL Coaching Casualty

      80,000 fans aren't necessarily the ones footing the bill for NIL, though. The issue with this current model is nobody could go to the games and nobody could watch on TV but player salaries would still be funded by big money boosters. There's no correlation between a team's revenue, or the sport's revenue as a whole, and player salaries/NIL deals. The NFL doesn't work this way. When overall viewership goes up, media deals gain value which increases media distribution to the franchises and raises salary caps with it when new media deals are signed. NFL teams are required to spend 89% of the salary cap over a 4 year span or pay the difference to their players because that money comes from media deals. The teams make most of their money from ticket sales, merchandise sales, and such but those don't pay salaries like they might in the MLB or even NBA which allows for a luxury tax when exceeding the salary cap. For the NCAA to follow a similar model where wins and losses don't matter to "school" salary pools (insane to type), you'd need an NCAA-wide media deal that pays all schools the same and a salary cap that is the same across the board determined by that media deal. I doubt it'll ever happen. We'd be right back at boosters paying players under the table. It's going to have to start with boosters getting spending fatigue to spark change.

      Athletics site shows no more Bowl tickets available?

      https://www.firstresponderbowl.com/tickets/#Fan-Tickets We may have sold out of our allotment, but their website still shows ticket availability.

      Fun bowl games, not quite so fun playoff games. Maybe there's still something to be said for the bowl games after all.

      Another NIL Coaching Casualty

      It will take some time for the fans of these schools to adjust to losing a few games a year when they're in the new "P2" consisting of maybe 40 teams max. However, filling an average 80k stadium for maybe 20 games/wk is only about 1.5M people demanding tickets for each week's game. Out of over 300M people, I suspect they can still keep filling the stands, other than the few days of "dud" games or bad weather. Now, I'm not sure about TV ratings, but there's so many T-shirt fans of these top 40 schools that I think they'll still watch. I hope this greed and the extreme powering of the top few schools ends up biting them in the a$$, but I'm afraid they'll be successful. I don't mind them breaking away, I just wish they'd be forced to give up any relation to the school. Go create a stand-alone semi-pro league independent of the universities. I haven't followed pro sports in decades, but my quick check shows the Cowboys have been varying between 6-9 and 13-3 for the past 20 years with minimal playoff success but from what I hear, they have plenty of demand for tickets, even when they suck. I realize they are a somewhat special team, but then again, so are these P2 teams, so I think the comparison is reasonably legit.
