Mosley Facebook Posts

[Travis]

I know I know… we find something to complain about anyways and always on here and this is just another. Maybe not so much of a complaint but more of a why?!

Have you guys seen the pro-Mosley Facebook posts going up on the mean green sports page from other coaches talking about he is the right guy for the job. I am curious, is there a contingent of people against the hire? Why are they sending this to validate the hire as if others aren objecting?
It was just one of those things that struck odd to me and kind of pointless. If I were the guy in charge now, and especially when no one is out there challenging this hire, I wouldn’t use my marketing team to bolster my promotion. It seems needless and confusing and a bit arrogant. Just to be a bit not picky. 
Now bolstering the football pick seems like a necessity. We already know there are going to be people questioning the hire regardless of who is our next HC. But not our dearly beloved Mosley.

I haven’t seen the exact posts, but the concept doesn’t concern me. 
 

Most folks on this forum are hyper-aware of what’s going on with the athletic department, but we’re the small minority of the greater alumni and student community.
 

The larger population of folks affiliated with UNT probably aren’t aware that we were hiring a new AD. Therefore, it doesn’t hurt to share the news a handful of times on the Facebook page where they have a bigger audience, and using other people’s words is a good way to 1) keep the message fresh and 2) leverage social proof to quickly convey Mosley is a good pick.

Doesn’t bother me a bit, they ran the same stuff when Littrell was hired with quotes from Gronk and Stoops and others.

I understand the need for the quotes to bolster a coach hire for our football program.  I just don't so much for an AD. Especially one that no one is contesting the hire on.  Just my two cents.

We should all be impressed UNT Athletics is actually doing some level of marketing... Granted most of it is cheap social marketing or emails from MailChimp.
