Can he sign with UNT in December? (Since he would have graduating HS) If not, what kind of aid can he receive to attend school in January when the Football signing date is February. Also, Todd Dodge recently commented on Riley's status with the Mean Green next year. Can TD, or any other coach, comment on a kid before they sign?

Thank you very kindly!

Yes, Riley will have to pay his way if he enrolls in December. A coach cannot comment about a recruit until he actually signs but a FATHER can talk all he wants.

He will just be a midterm signee. There is a signing period for these kids. He will be offered a scholarship at that point. Accepting financial aide will count as the same thing as if he had signed a letter of commitment in February. He will not have to pay his own way for that first semester.

This is no different that when DD would bring in a JUCO guy at midterm. That is how we got that All American JUCO lineman (who never cracked the roster and then quit).

Children of employees do not have to pay for tuition at NT. Helwig's son used to work for me - and he didn't have to pay. All of the Helwig children went to NT, they got to go for free. I don't even think that we will need to use a ship on Rodge.

Children or a family member do pay tution. They can submit a form and have fee's waived.

Not true. I was the son of a NT prof and didn't get free tuition.

      Should we add Texas State to the AAC?

      These conference wishlists are fun to discuss but in no world should UNT share a conference with Tarleton State and SHSU in 2025 lol I’d love being in the PAC as long as some other AAC members follow as a package. That conference wouldn’t be as friendly regionally but there would definitely be more opportunities for national recognition in the PAC especially in basketball.

      TXST in the same conference would be fun, but there are a lot of great moves to make... many of the current teams in our conference need to be kicked out first to avoid cheapening the media payout.

      Who did better? PAC 12 or Mountain West?

      Before the PAC2 raided the MWC, I had been a supporter of joining a rebuilt PAC, as long as it was a true "Western Conference" of D1, and we shared a nice little 6-8 division with the likes of Memphis, UTSA, Colorado State, Air Force, New Mexico, Tulane, and a Rice or Tulsa. But it did not appear the PAC was going to bring enough programs close to DFW to make the added travel and exit fees worth it. Still don't know how the MWC held onto UNLV and Nevada, otherwise it'd be an even crappier conference than CUSA. But unlike the PAC7, it will still be recognized as an FBS conference next July. Doesn't seem like Memphis, Tulane, and USF will be going there, especially with an unknown TV deal. Ultimately I think with realignment, one of the G6 leagues will dissolve. The American struggles by being a league with several new teams, no notable rivalries, and no regional tie like the PAC, SBC, MWC, and MAC claim. And there are plenty of moves we could make to improve across many sports, but the league is so saturated. If it were up to me, I'd get Rice, Tulsa, Charlotte, Temple out of the conference. Force FAU and UTSA to find a solution to their high school gyms. Add Texas State, James Madison, Liberty, Western Kentucky, Appalachian State, and Louisiana. That would create a 16-team conference with a 8-team West Division UNT would share and play annually against with UTSA, TXST, Tulane, Louisiana, Memphis, Western Kentucky, and UAB. Instead of playing frickin' Temple three times in three years. That would leave us at 15 teams for basketball, I'd add up to three non-football members between Dayton, St. Louis, VCU, Richmond.
