Well, there were probably about 12 of us who showed up last night to welcome the team back to Denton. They arrived aboard three buses about 1 AM. I think the the players were all pretty surprised about it by the look on their faces, and most of them said as much. FFR cued the fight song over the speakers in his truck as they got off the buses. RV was very appreciative and personally thanked everybody who was there for coming. I would list everybody who was there to greet the team, but I do not want to take a chance of leaving somebody out. You know who you are, and thanks for being there. It was a great time in this season for players and fans alike. GO MEAN GREEN!

It was great to hear some of the guys say" Thanks for not giving up on us." I think that is pretty telling about how they have been feeling. These guys want to win, and last night they didn't quit ,Congrats guys. Thats all we ask of you Play all out , Every Down, every minute and good things will come.

JayDub, at first, I thought the same thing. FWIW, Deloach was one who did not get off the bus either, and many on this board give him a pass for anything/everything (don't recall if you have or not, just saying). But, I chalked it up to maybe their wives met them at the airport on Friday when they left, so they rode home with them after. And then I also thought, what difference does it make, we were there to show our appreciation to the players. And nobody that came to greet the team, including Fire Fight'n Rick said a word a about it either. So, lets not be nit picky, and just enjoy a victory. But then everybody thought I was crazy for criticizing RV for not standing with Dodge and show some unity at the Pourhouse during the interview with Vito over the drug issue.

Meangreen Dub, can any body on this team do anything right? I mean can't you enjoy the victory, and give them a little break from the criticism? Regardless of who it was against, transition team or whatever, it was a win. And many here saw some improvement which is better than none. If you are so concerned where some of the coaches were last night, including the great Deloach, then why didn't you show up?

I had fun going out there last night. It was cool to meet a few more board members and put some faces to names. I think most of the players were in shock to see a group of fans greeting them back home. Maybe we could do this for every road win in the future? (Heres hoping to having several more this year)

      🔥🔥🔥Official UNT vs Texas Tech IN-GAME DISCUSSION🚨🚨🚨

      Since 1995, when we moved up to FBS/ I-A, we are playing our 30th season. So far, we have had 6 seasons with a winning record. That’s 20% success. It hasn’t mattered what stadium we have played in, what conference we have played in, what coach we have, what AD/President we have, or what our funding has been. So the questions are what continue to be the roadblocks. Well, now the portal and NIL represent canyon-esque problems. So does the reputation of the entire program with TX HS coaches and parents…as well as the apathy/loathing of the program from within the university and Denton. Im not sure what can fix any of this, especially the nil/portal. It’s just hard to see this getting better when the entirety of talented players and coaches leave in the offseason for other places that pay more.

      Knowing a few of the players/coaches and how competitive they’re I’m sure they’re not! In the region last night Baylor at home tied Texas St. Texas A&M lost 6-0 to UConn. Soccer is very unpredictable, the one sport where you can actually dominate and not get the result you want!

      Oregon State AD: Pac-12 will look to add new schools quickly

      Sure, everyone is going to have to deal with it. However we’re in a stronger position to recruit against our conference peers in both football and basketball as full-share members. Let’s say the PAC TV deal comes in at exactly the same amount as the current AAC deal, $8-10 million per year. We would be stupid to stay in the AAC receiving half-share if the new PAC offered us full-share from day 1. It may be a lateral move for Memphis, Tulane, and USF because they’re already in the top-tier of the AAC. But that doesn’t make it a lateral move for us if the PAC comes calling offering full-share media rights. Plus, let’s not forget those three schools are looking for the first opportunity to jump ship from the AAC to the ACC when the time comes.

      Oregon State AD: Pac-12 will look to add new schools quickly

      I'm not sure why adding Wazzu and OSU to this group will make it certain to have a significantly larger media deal than the MWC already has. Contracts are more about actual eyeballs (and subscribers) than markets these days. Yes, they will have more but enough more for an increase beyond what they have now - I'm not sure. Maybe yes, maybe no. In either case it won't be a lot. If I'm Memphis, Tulane, USF or any other AAC school, I want to see actual dollars being quoted by actual media sources and not Pac-x estimates!

      give ACU credit they have not given up a goal all year at home, but I would hope the ladies at UNT are not happy with a tie against ACU
