FWIW, Bill Lively is a Dallasite who is quite well known to be more connected with SMU than he has ever been with NT; albeit that he got a post grad degree at our main campus. Seems if they get a degree from both SMU and NT, that special demographic of Metroplex alums always seem to gravitate most of their interest (and money) toward the Hilltop.

I would think there woud have been a dozen or more with an NT degree (or 2) who would have been a much better choice than Bill Lively and starting with Ken Murphy or Weatherford's Jerry Durant would not have been bad choices at all. I don't think I saw either of their names on that list.

Probably a bit too melodramatic by saying this, but I curse the day NORTH TEXAS took on the south Dallas county campus project especially with our school's limited financial endowment and resources. UNT-Dallas will further prove to be one helluva' money-drainer from our main campus and I have hopes (above all hope) that it doesn't prevent NT from building the single most important venue at Eagle Point Campus that will benefit every person who has ever been connected with the University of North Texas. Just my two cents...

      If Tech steals Eric; should we give Dave Aranda a shot?

      Just saw a video on my Facebook feed on the history of Cam Ward and the trememdous impact Coach Morris has had on the kid. Right now he is a heisman candidate.I believe Coach has proven he can definitely spot and develop qb talent. This is his proven reputation and should attract additional qb talent to UNT which is a must for us because of the NIL. Let him be known as the new qb guru. This is why I wanted hired.With success on the field he is 2-3 years more before leaving. Someone could offer him a ton of money to OC sooner but I think it would have to be a head coaching job.

      UAB's Big Screw Up

      Dinner is lost and it send like he has given up. Unfortunately, he has a $3.6 million dollar buyout. So he'll probably be there until next year at least.

      I definitely agree with that. We start getting our share from the AAC next season, albeit only 50% I believe. So, I’m excited for the new revenue stream and what we can do with that.

      And still lost. Glad he got his first TD in week 5. Next.

      The Answer is Marketing....

      Milestone Electric had $80 million in revenue in 2020 and $150 million in 2022. This per The Successful Contractor podcast which the owner was on in 2020 and 2022. To the original topic, winning cures all for sure. Something I wonder is if recent college graduates are working more on the weekends than previous generations. Either way, we need consistent high-level winning. My kids know UNT. I'm sure everybody else here has raised their kids around UNT. How many alumni were raised as fans of traditional power programs and will raise their kids as such despite going to UNT themselves? Have a few 10+ win seasons and maybe lifelong fans will be made of our current students. One things for sure, you can't have 1 bowl win in 20 years and zero 10+ win seasons in your history and expect people to care. The program needs better results on a consistent basis.
