Are There Plans For A Real Post-Game Show This Season?

[The Fake Lonnie Finch]

If you listen to other schools' radio broadcasts, you'll note that they have post-game radio shows that go an hour or two. Coaches, players, former coaches, former players, local media-types, national media-types, etc. get in on the action.

The current UNT post-game is what...30 minutes? Now that we have a real coach and stadium, can we have a real post-game? Sadly, we've got one of the best broadcast booths in the business. But, it's like they have to squeeze information down to fit it into this tiny post-game time slot.

Is there no radio station that can pick it up some kind of extended post-game show?

Post-game show. Radio. A longer one.

Whew...I finally found something to complain about again!

I do find myself craving listening to more Mean Green talk after the games. I always stay to listen to You'll never walk Alone so I literally get 5-10 minutes of debrief and analysis. What about a gathering place after the games where everyone can gather and celebrate like the crazies do outside of Staples Center or the AAC. Get a few broadcasters and guests having a live aftertalk show and people might show up to remingle - the post tailgate if you will.

I've heard other schools where the coaches and players and broadcasters do a one hour post game on the official station. Then, on a local sports talk station a coach or two and former coaches and players talk up the game and football in general at a nearby eating and drinking establishment.

Maybe I'm expecting too much too soon. But, we do have quite a few UNT alumni at the three Dallas sports talk stations, do we not?

Last year, if Jub and Hank had been on the air for an extra 30 mins, would they have been able to get the word out and an emergency response team assembled to find Ray Tune?

Most post-games I've heard are 15 - 30 minutes of official discussion/interviews, then they just take calls until there are not any more questions.

Sometimes they don't last, but I think I heard a UTEP bball post game years ago that lasted for hours. Of course, they were probably winning...

Good idea, but it might be too soon. If I'm the AD, I am going to gauge the interest as McCarney builds this thing.

Totally Agree TFLF. Hell I'd even settle for KNTU sports-broacasters-in-training doing a post-post game show.

If we did a post-game show on the student station, then this additional programming would interfere with the eclectic music shows on KNTU. Did you forget what people know us for?

/sarcasm alert!!!!!!

Seriously, this should have been done years ago.
