We would have played them in a Safeway parking lot as long as it wasn’t in El Paso.

No by their coach and president.

I hate this conference but going independent is not better. Notre Dame makes it work because they have a massive following and are a brand name. NMSU went independent because their program was hemmoraging money. I prefer regional conference alignments better than going indy.

S Alabama verbal

Agreed...At least your traditional sports bars can show the game on FSSW, most cannot show ESPN+ or ESPN3

Ah okay, well here's my thoughts about that then.

Yeah I'd take FSSW over ESPN+ any day

ESPN+ and 3 is not so national. I would say more people have Fox Sports, than ESPN+ accounts...

I’m confident that we can’t be confident about anything in 2020.

We were originally set to play them in Wichita on December 2nd but no clue if they will be a part of our final schedule.

And to think we couldn't do the same 🥴

Nothing official from UNT basketball’s twitter or Meangreensports on Morgan yet, although he has retweeted the following below

That was actually a pathetic move by their President and coach to call for us to forfeit for not wanting to go into El Paso. Like you are still UTEP, no one is ducking you. What's even more pathetic is that some in our conference agreed with them and thought we should forfeit for not wanting to play there.

Possibly my fav highlight.

They are commemorative. Some people keep them or maybe frame them. I don’t but that is why you got them.

Im happy to get one. Better days are ahead, I look foreword to them.....

And NT was scouffed at for offering to pay their way to Denton. Watch us end up playing here or Midland.

UTEP didn't want to do the same. The wheels are falling off in El Paso and UTEP now knows that if they don't play outside of El Paso, they will not play another game. They are requesting 4 more mobile morgues for all of the bodies while hospitals are at capacity. Looks like their President and Dana Dimel finally stuck their heads out and realized how bad the situation is in their city. https://kvia.com/news/el-paso/2020/11/10/amid-spike-in-covid-19-deaths-el-paso-texas-requests-four-more-trailers-in-addition-to-six-mobile-morgues-already-on-the-ground/

Addaway back and the twins at the ends. I hope we play.

Watched the last 10 holes, great round! Go Mean Green and CONGRATULATIONS CARLOS!!!

Don't understand the fascination with Liberty here. I don't feel like any conference is going to touch them in the foreseeable future. They don't draw. Interested to know what I'm missing? Or is it just envy?

But the political cagefight thread is locked...

Message me your address and I'll gladly send ya one And if anyone else wants one, do the same. I dont need them

Picked mine up today. Pretty cool little indoor practice facility mini. Thanks AD!

😇

i'll throw them away like i do every other ticket they send. they look cool, but no reason to keep them

The first part isn't too bold. They're already in the top 25.

Littrell has aged alot since then...

Great now I know this season will be canceled. No way we play WKU twice at home in the same decade, so I know it won’t happen same year!

when ESPN became a political channel I lost interest. Have not watched in years. I have it on cable and still don't watch it.

Right there with you. I will watch ballgames on there but have stopped watching Sports Center and their studio shows.

Totally agree. I think sports in general are suddenly figuring out that injecting their politics into sports is hurting them. The NBA in particular was hit really hard. The players may not care but their owners sure do. People aren't going to pay or spend time to watch a protest. ESPN needs to seriously start changing or another start up will knock them off their throne. I kind of think sports was starting to decline some anyway. College has monopolies now so the fix is in. NFL is still big but numbers are down and the Cowboys are laughable. NBA is boring and for me unwatchable now. Loved the 80s and 90s though. MLS is fun but watching washed up players from other countries kneel during our national anthem is a great way to increase your brand. MLB is always fun at the games but not really on TV. But we can't go to games. College basketball broke my heart when we didn't get a shot at the tournament. Screw you Rona. Maybe this pandemic has shifted peoples priorities? I certainly am only missing NT sports but not really missing the others.

Remember that I said this today: LIBERTY WILL BE RANKED IN THE TOP 25 WITHIN 5 YEARS AND BE IN THE NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP HUNT WITHIN 10.

Next year, we play at SMU, at Missoula, and home against Liberty in OOC along with our home game against a FCS spare. So, it would appear that we are looking at 1-3 in OOC. I guess it will be up to CUSA schedule to help SL keep his job after the season is done.

If he actually signs with SMU. WE all know how that can go....

Its envy for me. Getting ranked after a few season as a FBS program, like Coastal Carolina, just makes me wonder why we can't ever do this. Since 1995, we have had 5 head coaches, 3 ADs, 3 conferences, 2 stadiums, and countless opportunity games. And we can't get ranked. I've seen Boise State, Nevada, UCF, USF, Troy, Coastal Carolina, Western Kentucky, and now Liberty get ranked in the same time we have been FBS. I'm sure I've missed some others, too. Its just disheartening.

Is this allowed or is it too political?

So we got tickets that we can't use for games that are not being played. What am I missing here?

His family are smuT grads. He’ll sign.

I know most people would not like us to play as an independent but would that be better than playing in CUSA? Or, create a regional conference? Just curious, any opinions?
