I have learned the details behind Luncheon-Gate and am deeply saddened at the state of our alma mater.   Mosley's original sin was he should have contacted the President and the BOR the second after SMUt lost their game to OSU.  They could have changed the deal had he done that.  Secondly, Dr. Keller did his best impression of Simon Peter when he denied Jesus after he had been arrested.  Keller had a chance to be a UNT hero but instead he took the easy way out and turned his back on us. 

This would have been the highest attended game in the possibly the history of UNT.  Students were back, the weather was nice, OSU is in a power conference close by that would travel in large numbers.  This has to be one of the worst possible decisions in the history of UNT lore, right up there with painting the SuperPit seats orange and leaving the Missouri Valley conference.

Could have been a moment of accountability where Jared and President Keller both stood up and admitted they were wrong.  Instead, they chose the easier path of least resistance.

How about before the SMU/OSU game…”IF  OSU wins, we would host them.”  And maybe I’m just not living in reality, but shouldn’t the president of the university (and at least a couple of BOR) know this without being told by the AD?

This has to be one of the worst possible decisions in the history of UNT lore, right up there with painting the SuperPit seats orange and leaving the Missouri Valley conference. 
This paragraph could be a thread of its own, “Worst Decisions in UNT History.”

Some dude on Twitter/X called MeanGreenNation is defending them to death. Pretty ridiculous 

Explain further what Keller could have done. Based on a DRC article, there is also some dance/cheer comp that brings millions of girls to campus n

...begins Friday.   

It's all a top level disaster overseen by weak executives that are now looking for lame excuses to tell fans. 

Pitiful leadership all while dissing the fanbase.

That make floor covers that would allow the function without pulling on the floor. 

I’m done bitching. Just keeping me pissed off. We are T minus 24 to game time. Let’s whip their little cowboy asses and move along to the next game. 

Our blocks against AR State were beautiful. Need the same effort tomorrow evening.

When Renu Khator left USF to become President of UH and Chancellor of the UH System, one of first things she said was "Athletics are the front porch of the university."

 

 

Keller should learn from her.

Unfortunately I have to agree with you on this. People around the nation know about UH because of basketball. It's basically advertising when sports outlets are talking about you all the time.

I have said this before, but I went to an event where the guest speaker said that he went to North Texas and that we might not beat you in football but would kick your ass in marching band…and he was serious.

Yeah according to the Vito article from a few hours ago, the dancers should be left out of it. Their event doesn't start till Friday, and who cares if we can't host a WNIT game against Troy.

This is solely the luncheon and none of the overpaid geniuses in the administration could figure out how to move it somewhere else on campus. It should have been scheduled at the Indoor Practice Facility to begin with.

Huge failure on so many parts.

Sadly, they think it’s a huge success. Faculty and administration hate athletics.
