Wow, the crowd at the Pourhouse cheered loud when they showed the construction of the stadium. It was pretty neat to see that on a national stage! GMG!

Overall, the whole broadcast was very good PR for UNT football. I think the ESPN-U announcers were very fair to us and didn't mention Dodge's infamous 5-31 UNT record that most usually do, just his 79-1 high school record. The new stadium mention and photos (finished rendering and current construction) were excellent marketing for us.

Oh, no. They mentioned his 5-31 record a couple times.

Danny Kannel was not prepared and was on his knees for the BcS team the entire game. Pam Ward corrected him a number of times. They need to move Kannel to ESPN Regional with Sam Smith.

Yup. We played a drinking game and naming either record meant you had to go.

My liver damns you, easily repeatable facts.

They wouldn't be lying if they had said the record right? :unsure:

      Surrendering ourselves to a G5 playoff would be disastrous. It would give the P4 all the ammo they need to effectively remove the automatic bid for the highest ranked G5 champ. The correct solution, in today's environment, is to maintain the automatic G5 bid for the main playoffs and have a mixed G5/P4 NIT style tournament as Pernetti suggested. Don't take, add. Wouldn't be a bad idea to allocate future "NIT" and playoff spots per conference based on their previous performances. They do this in Europe for their European tournaments. Each league gets a coefficient rating based on the previous 5 years performance in European competitions. Not performing? You lose spots. Performing? You gain spots. So you know, the ACC going 1-9 so far, the Big12 going 2-7 back in 2022, the SEC going 6-8 and ACC going 2-4 both in 2021 would have some affect on that rating and future potential spots in the playoffs and NIT. No reason the ACC should get 2 spots next year considering this year's playoffs. The rating would just ensure transparency.

      Because the ever present lie of “we could be next” keeps G5 athletic directors, coaches, and fan bases docile. Keep the system just shy of outright exclusion of G5 programs and you can slowly strip away access while claiming that wasn’t the plan all along. It’s why the Power Ball lottery is so popular. Even though the chances of winning are exponentially small for everyone (the G5 programs), everyone will point to that one lady in a far off trailer park (Boise) who hit it big!

      The Mean Green Village needs a couple of more dorms, including a Kerr Hall-esque one.

      Women at Wichita State (12/29/24)

      Time to see how good or bad this conference is. The women (8-4) travel north to face Wichita State (6-7) in the AAC opener. We beat the Lady Shockers in Denton last year, 72-68. At 8-4, the women are tied with ECU for third best nonconference record in the league. Only UTSA (9-2) and UAB (9-3) are better. However, at 17-7, UNT has the best combined men's and women's basketball record of any program in the AAC. Game is at 1pm on ESPN+.
