Mountain West fans mull Smatresk leaving UNLV

[Harry]

UNT is growing like crazy. I exepect them to do sort of what Central Florida has done in the past 10-years. I liked Smatresk and thought he did a good job at UNLV, considering. He made a big mistake hiring Livengood in the first place, but then again he was our 2nd choice and he really wanted to hire Moos. Oh well, good luck to Neal, he's going to a much better job imo. UNLV is a dysfunctional mess.

North Texas needed a fund-raiser to increase its endowment coffers so it can meet the state of Texas' Tier 1 research university status and is said to be the prime reason they hired the UNLV prez'. http://untsystem.edu/

He doesn't have to worry about building a new football stadium at U of North Texas inasmuch that some of you may have seen it (and heard the crowd noise coming from it) on Fox Sports 1's nationally televised North Texas/Rice game on Halloween night. It was a hard hitting and exciting game which North Texas won.

Nice little compliment.

The comment on there about him holding back student fees for athletics makes me nervous. We need someone willing to raise them to the maximum allowed and someone willing to. Behind the scenes push for a dedicated athletics fee and not just the watered down stadium fee our lazy and incompetent chancellor allowed to happen.
