A participation trophy was okay in 2016, maybe even 2017, because that Troy team was legit, but after seven straight, there is absolutely nothing to be proud of losing them all in the past decade. Less than 10 wins against teams over .500 in that span, etc etc... 

Crazy stat... yet... people dismiss our basketball program... it's insane. 

What our basketball program has done has or never will be duplicated by our football program...ever. Never, ever. Not even close.

Well they could, but it would be very short term, not prolonged like MBB was fortunate to have.

No. I don't think so. North Texas Football gives people the "ick." For us to duplicate basketball success on the football field we'd have to start doing things our football program has never done...  winning double digit games in a season. And that's just for starters. Due to our porous recruiting/reputation <---- UNT Football and our lack of NIL money, we will never land the amount of studs needed to start duplicating basketball successes.

Name one major basketball only program in the state of Texas. Look at what lack of football has done to UTA. Football drives the bus in this state!!!

That may have been in the past.  With NIL and the portal football has become a liability for schools such as ours.  I am sorry to say it.
