The better sign to UNT admins related to this group would be “Quit hiring outside talent when you have dedicated degreed alums on staff who would crush this leadership role”. Grass is NEVER greener (pun intended) outside the UNT family for these roles. It’s a passion business.
All our experienced and highly regarded alums that worked there and/or in tangentially related UNT Advancement roles have been poached away by other institutions (SMU, Colorado, OK State, Sam Houston, A&M Commerce, amongst others) or left for private sector roles that compensate appropriately because of being passed over for external hires (minus the smart KFra hire) time and time again.
Many more potential fans and alums outside of Denton. Denton refuses to acknowledge they even have a college football program to support. They are more into high school football.
Or basically any of the other UNT stars (excluding the Murphy Twins) who portaled out of here at the height of their powers. All those dudes would have been better off, including as potential pro prospects, if they’d just stayed put.
