The Mean Green Are In Good Hands...

The WAC is now looking very weak. I would expect them to extend us another offer. If this happens, I hope RV continues his "wait & see" approach, and tables that offer. We have options!

We will have to "wait & see" if BYU goes through with their threat, and if so, it's possible that the MWC would have more moves to make. I highly doubt that "wait & see" means "sit & do nothing". I'll bet RV has made a pitch or two to MWC officials. This is a possibility (albeit a very small possibility)!

If the shakeups are ferocious enough and ConfUSA is affected, then we have yet another possibility open to us. We'll have to "wait & see".

Folks, this is where our Interim President can make a HUGE difference for The University of North Texas. I'm thinking that with him at the helm at this time, we're in good shape. His connections are very well known, and this is not his first rodeo.

And, when the smoke clears, if UNT is still in the Sun Belt, it is because that is the best place for us to be with the options we had (which none of us on GMG.com know).

Trust in Lane. Trust in RV. Go Mean Green!

Good post. +1

Also trust in Chuck Neinas. Chuck thinks big time....he won't recommend that UNT be part of anything small scale.

MeanGreen Texan you and I think alike and I believe that there are more of the Mean Green Nation that think the same way.

You deserve a +1

Absolutely please that Dr. Rawlins is calling the shots on this. We are in very good hands!

Excellent points. Look at where we are now versus the last time shakeups hit close to home.

Coaches (like Larry Coker) can spout off, presidents can spout off, and fans can fill up message boards but the real maneuvering happens behind closed doors. We have real political operatives working for us now and our facility improvements speak for themselves.

We took care of the cosmetic stuff (facilities) and we have the political, quiet weapons as well. (Rawlins and Neinus)

I feel comfortable with our current spot.
