Not NT related but for those familiar with the history of Arky athletics this is surprising.

From what I saw the last time North Texas played Arkansas, it is Arky  State that should be offended at the notion of playing in Fayetteville.

They opened the door by playing system schools. UALR beat the tar out of their national power baseball program. This just adds AState and UCA. 
 

They’ve been spending a bundle in non-revenue sports because most pre-ban available schools have fairly stout travel expenses. Once you get past Missouri State, Tulsa, and Oral Roberts not a lot of schools that can visit without a long ride and hotel stay. More than doubled the pool

Except football, they know Ark State would take down the hogs and they could not have that.

I figure if Junior Samples does well as coach and they get back to mediocre in the SEC they'll be calling.
