  1. Today
  2. Alaska could be as low as 31 in Aug, depends on what part of the state you are visiting.
  3. Man, it's always been like this out of that fake ass athletic department. Always. And you know they're all scrambling around poking around at other job opportunities every offseason just as much, if not more, than our players do/are. Basketball has a couple organic advantages. And it's simple numbers. It takes way less players, coaches, and money to be successful. The football program always has been kind of a joke. Reaaal bad when we're bad. Kind of flukey when we're decent. And a ton of mediocrity in between. The joke will eventually be the elephant in the room. Then, the program will be the financial liability. Frankly, if we're trying to be serious about turning athletics (in our case basketball) into a positive light on our university, the football program has been a huge financial liability for some time.
  4. And I like that. She’s showing the loyalty to our beloved Alma Mater that we all hope the b-ball & football guys would. Im just saying (& no, @Mean Green 93-98, I don’t know who would have gone after her since she didn’t enter the portal), if she had jumped in the portal after last years stats, she would’ve been highly sought after by teams who have better odds of making the tournament, and play for a natty.
  5. Let me say it again....Matt from A700's idea is brilliant...Scrap 'em!
  6. Kids like Rubin and Aaron that graduated? I tend to be a little more forgiving. Kids like Buggs, Edwards and Noland? Bye.
  7. Too selfish, very little loyalty for anyone but “me” today. Killing my passion for college football. They need to get rid of the scholarship program and just pay these kids. They can pay for their classes, food, etc. Treat them like employees and let them experience the real world. I could not care less if they go to class. Let them suffer the consequences of their actions. Silence out of the staff and administrators. Why would I want to buy season tickets when I have no idea if we will even have a defensive line? Basketball gets gouged and has already refilled the pantry, better program, etc. I may just spend my money on that program and watch football from the cozy confines of my domicile. No word on a roadshow this summer, coaches silent, but we’ve got face painters and Corgi races. You want my money? Put forth some freaking effort.
  8. The silence out of the football program is ridiculous. Nothing from Morris, nothing from anyone, just silence. Meanwhile, other universities have their coaches reaching out to the fans, alumni and boosters. I even looked up the Light the Tower initiative website. Poorly designed, links don’t work, etc. Same old crap every year. They are pushing me away from coming for any football games. I may just switch over to basketball tickets.
  9. This article mentions many of the issues we've discussed like employment contracts, cheering for the school over player names yet wanting to see your best players perform and not opt-out, etc. "Yes, they care about the name on the front of the jersey probably more than the name on the back; that's the special thing about college sports and college football," he said. "But you want to see the best guys play, and I think the only way we get to that is through a collective bargaining agreement and employment contracts that require you to play in the postseason if you're healthy." https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/40065306/some-bowl-leaders-hope-cba-help-lower-number-opt-outs
  10. Yesterday
  11. Most people agree. It’s why people are letting go of season tickets and not giving to athletics. Not just at UNT but at many other universities. I wish this trend would continue to all schools and kill off the NIL!
  12. I'm pretty sure we hold the record for being the opponent in other schools' records...you know, if there was a record for that.
  13. The second factor for Nebraska - Second, the university focuses heavily on agriculture research, a priority for a land grant institution. But in the eyes of the AAU, most agricultural research is not peer-reviewed, competitive research, so it is “not considered as highly,” AAU spokesman Barry Toiv said, compared with medical and economic research.
  14. McCarney was the biggest tool when he got to UNT. Oh let's talk about Iowa this or that...like man GTHO with that.
  15. Lol I had someone called me about seats filling up fast for basketball and that I needed to get my tickets asap!
  16. Noooooo. Not true. You didn't like the corgis race? What an EVENT!!!!
  17. Again, it takes effort. Sadly, you hear as much about UNT Athletics in Lubbock, as I do in Midland and as everyone in the DFW market does. There is zero coming out of the department unless a game of some sort is being played. They kept pushing the football season ticket renewal deadline, but why? I am not in any danger of losing my seats even if I choose to renew the first week of the season. All you hear out of our AD is the whir of wind turbines and crickets.
  18. This is what happens when you put effort into the program. I live in Tech country. I am worn out hearing from Joey McGuire, Kirby Hocutt and the Red Raider Club on the radio and television. They even have their spring game in Midland where many wealthy boosters live.
  19. That's not Kailey. I also think this is why you see us play Okie State and not OU. DeLong was pissed at the obvious recruiting off our roster by OU.
