Is it annoying to know how much you have done for this athletic department and still be second guessed on nearly everything you do?

Most pressing question of the day: What kinds of beer will be available on the concourse?

What... is the air-speed velocity of an unladen swallow?

Since we're pretty sure of RV's favorite color, it would be best to ask... What is your quest?

Edit: That's actually not a bad question - We have Apogee, we're now in CUSA - what is our next quest? The easy answer is Baseball, but what else?

Once upon a time a farmer went to market and purchased a fox, a goose, and a bag of beans. On his way home, the farmer came to the bank of a river and rented a boat. But in crossing the river by boat, the farmer could carry only himself and a single one of his purchases - the fox, the goose, or the bag of the beans.
If left together, the fox would eat the goose, or the goose would eat the beans.
The farmer's challenge was to carry himself and his purchases to the far bank of the river, leaving each purchase intact. How did he do it?

Is this benfords make or break season? What bar must he reach to be brought back after this season?

I'll answer this for you. He must reach the fourth year of the contract bar.

Will home games be made available to subscribers to MGS this year? This was very annoying last season and I know it caused several people to cancel their accounts.

Most plan to attend home games. Will road games be shown? Why has no more emphasis been placed on the SMU game?

Ask him this Harry.

What are the sales projections for beer sales at Apogee this year?

What percentage of sales will actually make it into the athletic department coffers?

Are the dollars from beer/wine sales earmarked for specific use within the department or will they simply go into a general fund?

And finally, if all goes well with sales at Apogee will sales be expanded to other athletic venues/sports at NT?

Are there any plans to schedule future "Home and Home" series against P5 programs, like maybe Washington State, Cal, or Arkansas? Will North Texas have 6 home games next season? Thank you.

What programs are you currently in negotiations with for a future home-and-home?

Is there a legitimate plan in place to market our football program/university for the 2014 season? If so, what?

Is there a legitimate plan in place to get more North Texas merchandise on shelves? If so, what?

I know we just changed conferences, but are you pushing for another conference change for the future? AAC, MWC, possibly big12 (for when the big12 inevitably expands)?

Post/pre baseball start up, is there a plan in place for an indoor practice facility?

Is the marketing/ticket office department making a true conscious effort to reach out to our alums?

In your best opinion, why can't we sellout Apogee? As AD, fix whatever your opinion is.

Can we ever make the pedestrian bridge a UNT or UNT football marketing strategy? Green lights, football poster/electronic sign that stretches at least 25% of bridge, etc.?

Odds of hearing this, or some version of it, from RV when asked about the upcoming basketball season:

"We expect to be competitive in CUSA this season and need to show improvement, but if we aren't and don't, I just want something made clear right now: it's the players fault and there are several cancers in the locker room."

50/50?

No, because we have a real TV deal. Only exception may be the Sinclair games especially if they can't find a DFW affiliate. If it's on a Fox network or CBS Sports, then no way. That's a result of the deal the conference signed with the networks, no point in asking RV, he has no control over it.

1. Will the RV sweater vest be for sale in the Pro Shop this year?

2. How many season tickets have been sold this year, hard number, and what were the sales goals for this year?

3. Are the rumors true that emmitt will run marketing and UNT90 will be in charge of scheduling since nothing ever meets their expectations, they have all the answers and obviously know that you are not even trying?

You take the fox across, then go back for the goose and take him across, then you bring the fox back and grab the beans, then you take the beans across and grab the goose and bring him back, then you take the fox and go back for the goose and bring him across.

I'm sure they'll have to go through a bid process, but with Ben E Keith's past sponsorships I see Bud products in The future.

Metzler's is actually handling it. RV said they would have 6-7 flavors all in the tin cans (no draft)...

      Breaking: North Texas set to Hire SHSU DC Skyler Cassity

      I would take 30-60 as a success overall but what I really don't want is a defense that gets absolutely steamrolled in any one game. Show me you can adjust during games to counter opponent's adjustments. I do put some of Caponi's failure on Eric Morris with his poor game management so I guess we'll see if he can do some soul searching this offseason.

      Breaking: North Texas set to Hire SHSU DC Skyler Cassity

      I'm sure there are some more experienced guys that have legitimate claim to serious looks. I just never got the vibe that there was one or two home-run hires available to us.

      Breaking: North Texas set to Hire SHSU DC Skyler Cassity

      One stop. 51st and 117th at ACU is not success. Stop lying to yourself. I'm bitching because this is an atrocious hire. Allowed 39 to Texas State and 45 to a bad UCF team which included being ran over for almost 400 yards and 6 TDs. I would have wanted one of the Co-DCs (or both) from Northern Illinois, Bowling Green, or Miami (OH). We could money whip any and all of their DCs. You want to see success that doesn't involve getting steamrolled for 40 like Cassity's defense, look at those teams. NIU: 7th in total defense, highest G5 ranking. Held now #5 Notre Dame to 14 and NC State to 24. Most points allowed was 25 to Ball State. They have co-DCs we could have doubled in pay for less than Caponi. Bowling Green (I brought them up in a thread a couple days ago, sorry you don't read other posts): 29th in total defense, have co-DCs one of which spent almost a decade as DC in DFW high schools (including Haltom City when Lance Dunbar was there). Held Texas A&M to 26 and now #3 Penn State to 34, both on the road. Miami (OH): 14th in total defense. Held Northwestern to 13, Cincinnati to 27, and Notre Dame to 28. Most don't have Texas ties. I don't think that matters as much in today's day. I'd like to know when's the last time Texas ties helped us in football anyways. It certainly doesn't stop the bigger Texas programs. What all those schools do have is low ressources and yet a demonstrated ability to hold their P4 opponents to respectable scoring outputs. Regarding Cassity, I put zero stock in his top 20 defense. That is 100% a reflection of the CUSA competition. Allowing 39 to Texas State and 45 to a 4-8 UCF team is unacceptable and shows what he's actually capable of. I was ridiculed for calling out our game management and highly inconsistent offense early this year only to be proven right. I'll take the hit here again but I don't want to read BS about what went wrong if and when he fails.
