I heard a small amount of Fran cohosting a show today on espn radio in dallas. I am a Ticket guy, but a friend told me they were going to be talking college basketball so i tried to tune in to see if there would be a Tony Mitchell or UNT mention and i missed it. I was told that they did talk about Tony Mitchell and High expectations for UNT this year. Did anyone catch this segment and maybe give me a synopsis of the conversation?

I did not catch it but would like to hear if someone did. Gotta say that Fran handled this whole deal in a pretty classy way so kudos to him.

But would it have been that good of a "fit" for him or us? I think we made the right hire, at first based on thinking we would be setting ourselves up for Frascilla being unhappy with what we could pay him, now more along the lines of Benford finally gets his chance to call the shots, wants to make the most of it, and has the ability to take us to the next level.

I too was about Fran but I was also about the other Fran as well.... We might the right decision (thus far) in both cases.

      Same. Might be that we exploited a weakness and Adam Fisher hasn't figured out how to fix it yet? Could be a lot of things.

      I agree with your assessment as it pertains to UNT. As somebody who was a member of our Greek life membership, I think our Greek life is a joke overall. Those are the students who clearly are ashamed of their school and wishes they were elsewhere. Greek life leadership at UNT needs to look in the mirror and recognize they're part of the problem as it pertains to public perception. Without naming names, I can tell you a couple of our biggest donors with names on buildings were Greek life members at UNT. What's happened since they were students, I have no clue.

      When I was at UNT, there was no need to shutdown the tailgate. We all went in as a group from the tailgate and enjoyed the games. There were also Greek life members all over SGA. It was a main talking point that we needed to boost attendance and be part of that change. I don't know what's happened since then. In my experience, the students inclined towards the arts expressed animosity towards sports. Almost like there was jealousy at the attention and resources dumped in sports without realizing athletics are often the main link between a school and its alumni and therefore a big opportunity to attract donations to help fund other on campus projects. Those students geared towards the arts are more likely those to dye their hair as well. There are exceptions on all sides though.

      Yeah I'm well aware of the stereotypes, but go ahead and scan or meet the student crowds at the basketball and football games and get back with me about the greek/weirdo ratio. I mean you don't even need to scan the crowds, just go talk to anyone who was a talon in the last 25 years and get back to me about the various frats and sororities they have crossover with. I mean if it was the greeks pulling in all the support we wouldn't be creating a thread about how surprised we are that literally a few of them from one specific frat showed up to one specific game.
