Where's the other 5,000 fans at?   Oh that's right, same football coach...again. 

You mean fans aren’t excited to see Seth get chance to post his 4th consecutive losing season?

So people couldn’t come out to support McCasland because it could be interpreted as supporting Seth?   Got it.

Nothing to do with basketball.  We are approaching Football season and it's very apparent that Fans are not buying what Wren is selling (Seth).

Well, you can’t get much closer to being right dead in between the seasons of the two sports, but whatever makes you feel better. 
 

Very difficult to justify this event having “nothing to do with basketball”.

We are in Texas.  Football drives the Athletic Departments here.  50 Fans at a Dallas event for UNT Athletics is embarrassing, but also telling.   Was it just apathy or could it be no excitement about the upcoming Football season?  Had a new coach been hired (as should have happened) there would have been many more fans there.

Count the thread topics on GMG, see for yourself what is relevant right now...

What has been our best attendance at a coaching caravan? What is the attendance for other schools when they do a caravan?

There was huge excitement in the summer after Dodge was hired, from both media and the fan base.  Season ticket sales soared.  I remember fans sneaking peaks of fall practice from the hotel hill overlooking Fouts to see the new spread offense.   Then it soon all crashed in the fall.  Lesson learned about hiring over-hyped high school coaches, lol.

I knew that.  Doesn't answer my question, tho.  Was anyone at the caravans when Todge was hired?

I’m pretty sure they didn’t start having them until the McCarney era.

But yes, please tell me how the right thing to do is still blindly support this dumpster fire of a football program.

Since 2005, we had had 5 head coaches, played in 2 different stadiums, 2 different conferences, and have 3 winning seasons out of 17. 

Want to know why nobody takes us serious outside of the 5000 diehards? 73 wins and 134 losses. A .353 winning percentage...against mostly spares to the common college football fan. That's your problem. Right now, a coach can't win here. And the ones who think they can end up just riding out the final years of their contracts for easy pay.

.500 - 0.600 seasons should not be the norm.  Certainly not on any 4+ year curve.

Wow that is pathetic.  Thats less than showed for the Houston caravan I attended a few years back and at the time I assumed Dallas was probably well attended.  Guess not

Okay then fold the program right?  If you are asserting the best this program can do is 0.425 there is no point.  If we can’t replicate what UTSA has done that is a failure of leadership here.  And we can absolutely run the table in CUSA no juggernauts in this conference.

      TX State to the PAC 2?

      It’s interesting because I know the perception of the new PAC and AAC is that the PAC will be stronger, but where would Texas State rather go? It seems like AAC for a variety of reasons. I’m not convinced the new PAC is better than the AAC. UNLV and New Mexico holding back in the MWC, with the Northern Illinois and GCU ads have the future PAC in a bit of limbo. They have to keep performing or they will fall back fast. The SBC and AAC currently are the more stable forces, hence a certain level of power and leverage lives there. To me the PAC must break the bank to get Memphis or they are not going to lift on takeoff. GMG

      Join the Infantry in Houston - Tuesday, 2/11 at 8pm

      Rob Lanier, former SMU head coach, found out what the Infantry could do last February at Moody Coliseum. So when he moved over to Rice, inside sources suggest he slipped Tim Spaghetti some cash to make sure his home game against UNT would be on a weeknight this season. But I say, "Too bad, Rob! You can't escape us!" If you're in Houston, or are retired and can make the trip, or want to use a couple of half days like I did, join us at the terrible Tudor Fieldhouse on Tuesday, 2/11 at 8 p.m. The game has the later start because it'll be on ESPNU as the "west coast game." There are just under a hundred seats left behind our bench which would be group-rated at $25. For the second straight year I want to sell the section out. What'll make it better is the sea of green will be on national TV. It'll be different without Scott Screamin' Pera on the Rice bench, but we'll still have plenty to taunt Lanier about. Like how his son has to follow him around to maintain a D1 scholarship. And don't forget the UNT Dallas debacle. Here's what we did last year. We bought about 70 tickets, plus whatever the team was allotted, and the local alumni who bought on their own. If you are interested in joining our group for the game, message me. I've got pending communication out with the Houston alumni chapter to see if they will plan to do anything before the game like last year.

      12,400 announced at Providence today, who came into the game with a record of 9-10. Providence is about the same distance to Boston as Denton is to Dallas.
