When we when again, if we when again, Kram will when the bet when we when again.

F'n NCAA screwed me! Anyone else think the thought process was "Well, this only matters if they have a prayer of getting to our tournament, and they don't, so who cares?"

You guys really think anyone should be responsible for a schedule played by 20 YEAR OLD MEN? You want Benny to hold their hands while they play games that should have never been scheduled?

Favorite quote in Vito's story: “I have heard about it,” UNT head coach Tony Benford said. “I just don’t know right now.” It's unclear whether the preceding question was, "Coach Benford, what is

It's really just payback for the loss UTA would have handed us had we not skipped out on them.

No, you pretty much did it to yourself when you set 10 as the number. :-)

What if 90 had said 10 D1 wins, would you have made the bet?

Who knows...never entered the conversation...the man was so very cock sure and so very adamant that UNT would not win 10 games...I let him set the parameters and the bet level...heck I offered $5,000 to start!

I think I was more certain of my position than he was his even from the start...Ha!

Hey...we ain't got 10 yet!

I think you had inside information from Benford on the scheduling and just paid off the NCAA to let us off the hook.

We never walked on the moon, Elivis ain't dead, you ain't going crazy, it's all in your head.

Congrats to the guys on the win. Never happier to pay a bet.

      Should we add Texas State to the AAC?

      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.

      Women vs. South Florida (1/12/25)

      Get your rears to The Pit tomorrow! The ladies have a difficult opponent to face coming off their failed comeback in New Orleans the other night. South Florida is 11-6 but tied for a league-best 4-0 in AAC play. They were picked to win the conference last year but we beat them in our one meeting in Tampa. USF absolutely crushed Wichita State the other night in Kansas: 72-46. Tickets: https://meangreensports.evenue.net/event/WB24/WB10
