The non-bright side: by waiting to fire Dodge for one or possibly 2 years after it was deserved, we will open the beautiful new stadium with a 40+ point loss to an in state team because we have a 1st year coach with just true freshmen in his recruiting class. Unforgivable at any university that was serious about athletics, but we are UNT.

This situation is completely on tbe shoulders of RV (unless he wasn't allwed to fire Dodge last year because of money) and he Should be held accountable in some way, shape or form.

It is entirely possible that this team is winless at years end.

No hurry to get rid of dodge, I don't see it mattering much if it is now or in three or four weeks. RV has to be looking (Leach) now and what coaches are available for the most part won't be figured out until later in the season. But we will have a clean sweep with Canales as interim coach for the end of the season.

I vote now is the time start change. Why wait and salt the wound, lets start the scabbing process so we can heal. Let's see what Coach Canales can do?

Because it is likely to suck either way, we might as well give Dodge all the rope promised. It's not like we can get a quality coach in before the end of the season.

You're assuming the worst if change comes, I assume the best because I already know what I have in Todd Dodge.

1. I wasn't too high on Canales as coordinator, let alone running the whole team.

2. I'm leaning towards letting him destroy the rest of the season, whilst we seek out another coach right now. Surely RV is doing that now. If not, well then I reserve the right to be depressed.

      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.
