A source close to the North Texas program talked with Eagletalk.net to give some information about what the program is doing.

North Texas does have “it’s eyes and ears open” to everything that is going on as “everyone else in the college world is.” North Texas and many other programs are in the same situation as many football fans are. No one knows what is going to happen and for the most part UNT is in a wait and see mode like the rest of us. No one knows how small or how big this shift will be.

It was actually 2005 when CUSA picked UTEP over UNT, and yes attendance and facilities were the main reasons why. I believe attendance at North Texas football games has increased since our Bowl years of 2001-04. It is mainly due to better game atmosphere and tailgating. However, regional opponents and name opponents draw more and always will over conference schools 1500 miles away.

Wow. Fascinating stuff. Practically a paraphrase on what was blogged on the athletics website the other day.

The next four questions are; is this the big one, the major shift in the college conferences or just a tremor? Is this just a few schools making changes that can easily be replaced by other schools with the big one happening later. What will happen to the Big 12? More importantly what does this all mean for North Texas?

Babblefish is getting a lot better than when I used it for college Spanish.
