Any report on what was said for us out-of-towners?

Probably the most impressive and upbeat show I have seen about UNT. Both RV and Coach McCarney looked sharp, were very articulate, but most of all very positive and confident about the future of UNT football.

The host was also very enthused about what was happening at UNT.

Nice footage of the Stadium, Dunbar and our new QB.

RV did say that the stadium could be expanded to 50,000. I think that will probably be the max.

Nice summation...I agree 100%. This was some "good stuff" for UNT. I'll say it again, every time I see or hear Coach mac I am absolutely convinced that this program is heading in the right direction! Be still my heart! What a great time it is to be a member of the Mean Green Nation. And, I think there will be many more new members to that great nation in the coming months.

Check link I couldnt get it to load. Would love a video if it is out there!

Try this one Harry...and maybe it needs it's own thread. I cannot wait until the day that as soon as we get press video online our Athletic Dept posts it to Youtube. It's very disheartening to see the very limited amount of video out there for us. Most of the videos and game recaps are done by opposing schools. This was a great interview though!

That is an exciting broadcast, my heart is pumping I can't wait to this fall season. I really think we have found the right coach to take us not just to the next level but keep on going. The sky is the limit boys!

Thank you for the heads up, thank you for the review, and thank you for the link. That was an outstanding piece. I just wrote to commend TXA 21 at cbs11@ktvt.com. It couldn't hurt to let them know that there are a lot of us who appreciate that kind of coverage.

Agree. And it would help even more to watch the broadcast online from several computers and share it with friends.

Really excellent interview. RV has to get the nod for best AD ever at North Texas. While many times we have wished for better success on the field, court, pool, whatever; the facilities he has brought to the campus are nothing short of astounding.

One small correction, I believe he said that several North Texas teams were ranked nationally for the first time in school history. That is not correct but it is easy to misspeak while being interviewed.

Well done, gentlemen!

If you get a chance we should send Bill Jones and TXA21 a note about how much we enjoyed it to ecourage them to do it again.

I will do that today. Great idea.

EDIT...DONE! Thanks for the reminder.

Don't bother with Generic Bill. You may remember him as the guy who made a Hal Wasson joke when we were on the verge of hiring McCarney.

If I remember right, the Sports Director over at KTVT/KXTA is Dandy Killeen. He's an alum. Email him instead.

For those thinking the wingzone is temporary and isn't part of the 50K plan, RV said the stadium can get to 50K without tearing anything down. Works for me.

As long as we don't call it The Eagles Nest. I don't think we want the association the third reich

Don't you start in with historically significant humor.

Since your Alamo work got deleted, I think we can say that he'Speerless when it comes to historically significant fun.

      Disappointed the game didn't allow us to see Mason, Cotton, and Vice.

      Two more home games before students are back, then hopefully the athletic department is going all out to try to compete with last year's record-breaking numbers.

      Auburn warns of potential ticket price hike ahead of revenue-sharing model

      In traditional professional football, when teams pay players and have a losing season, the teams still make $$$ and turn a profit. Thus they can afford to continue to pay players. In today’s college football, when boosters pay players NIL and the team has a losing season, the boosters lose money AND they don’t get to experience the joy of being associated with a winner. Will those boosters keep donating NIL? Do you have to find new boosters? Don’t you eventually run out of boosters? Just don’t see how this NIL model is sustainable. Rich people didn’t get rich by losing money and I don’t see how you can keep asking them to do that via NIL. The revenue sharing model WILL work and it will be interesting to see what percentage of revenue is ultimately allocated to labor. The NBA gives 51% of gross revenue to players. The other major professional leagues give less. But why would colleges give players anything close to that? College players are infinitely replaceable. People root for their school and as a consequence of that, root for the players competing for that school. But if the Top 100 players in college football disappeared overnight, would the popularity of the sport suffer at all? I don’t think it would. Offer the players minimum wage, make them sign binding contracts with buyouts and non-competes (assuming you can still enforce those: that is another rabbit hole). NIL will still exist but won’t be as big of a deal because of the contracts and buyouts. If a players thinks he is too good for this system, they can start their own football league or wait until they are eligible for the NFL. Why wouldn’t this work?

      I don’t know how much they care. It’s like monopoly money. Many of them are just borrowing from Uncle Sam and hoping they don’t have to pay it back.

      SMUt getting owned by State

      Did you believe Alabama would be uncompetitive vs Oklahoma? What about OSU vs Tennessee? Did you think TCU would get absolutely nuked by Georgia a few heads ago AFTER beating #4. Michigan? Blowouts happen every year in we den the 4 team playoff. They mean little.
