Couldn't have happened to a better bunch. On a side note, rumor has it RV is mulling over an Benford contract extension because he "didn't make the NCAA tournament, just like hall of fame coach Lar

Wednesday night @ 9 on ESPU vs San Francisco. I'd be down for a get together in denton/lewisville area if y'all are interested

Without looking, who can tell me the most famous BB player to come out of San Fran U ?

Lewisville would be my preference.

Meh.

I care about SMU basketball like I care about SMU men's soccer or the SMU equestrian team. What they do or don't accomplish in a sport we don't participate in at North Texas doesn't really matter.

I wonder if they'll end up playing LSU in the NIT?

Equestrian. That's a sport we need. This is horse county after all, and horseback riding was once a very popular PE class at NT. Perhaps some local horse breeders could help fund and support it. It is a prestigious sport and pretty girls on horseback are enchantingly fun to watch. We need Crew as well.

Will y'all be wearing unt shirts with brown paper bags over your heads (borrowed from cowboy season) holding signs begging JJ to come back?

Or at least get Branford's binder proof read by JJ.

      Yes. To me, 2 positive outcomes come to mind with Mosley. The women's basketball hire* and the singular 7 figure donation I am aware of. We can give him a sliver of credit for pulling the trigger to promote Ross after Grant left, but a monkey in a sweatsuit would've made that move. To me, the football hire is proving to be a huge problem. Complete lack of facility upgrades, lack of major donations (outside of the one that they publicly paraded), miniscule marketing efforts outside of the Wyoming at UNT football game are all hard to ignore. Those are fundamental, top bullet point job requirements of being an athletic director. I mean, c'mon, there are legitimately high school basketball games that draw more than 2.5k while we are sitting here as a top 60 NET D1 basketball program with almost a decade of sustained success trying to compete with that number. *Maybe taboo to touch on this, but women's basketball hires ain't saving jobs.

      He made two amazing basketball coaching hires.

      That is actually a pretty fun idea. Both Wren and RV were more of a “sales” guy than Jared, who seems like an “operations” guy. That is fine, but you need to hire someone else to be that sales person who promotes the program and builds excitement for the program. Jared has made some homerun hires in basketball, but is it still a homerun if no one is there to see it?

      I am not being belligerent here, just simply asking, but what has Jared done for you to be pro-Jared?

      I’m not making excuses. I’m disgusted by it. It is a hell of a product and I can’t believe people aren’t showing up to see it. They are missing out. There are a lot of creative ideas you could try to fill that place up. I’ve been pretty pro-Jared since his hire, but this is a pretty embarrassing flaw and ultimately he is the one getting paid the most to make the athletic program succeed. And good attendance is part of that success.
