  1. Going by that little big of Oklahoma drill it would appear we will have no issue running the ball. Granted, it was a short tape but I think there was maybe one time that I would count as a successful defensive stop.

    I'm also glad that when we've seen videos of practice we've had the actual sound and not some blaring rock song.

  2. I think we're severely overrating the McCarney hire. Sure he's a respected coach but unless you're in Iowa or have some sort of connection to Mac nobody really knows the guy. Leach is known and recognizable nationwide. As for FAU getting him....I highly doubt it since he can get something a lot better. But if they do get him then more power to them...it greatly increases the perception of the league.

    I think you're seriously underrating the McCarney hire. He is a VERY respected coach and everyone around college football has tremendous respect for the guy.

    But let's assume you are correct when you say "unless you're in Iowa or have some sort of connection to Mac nobody really knows the guy". The thing is that he has "some sort of connection" to EVERYONE in college football. Now a lot of that is due to his personality. He's is so outgoing, so energtic that you can't help but like the guy. I also get the feeling he's one who never forgets a name.

  3. Well, I don't have a hushed-up invite so I'll spread the rumor I was told. I heard it is a donation from our Thailand friend, close to $100 mil, to several departments, maybe a mil to athletics.

    What?!?!? Once again Athletics gets the short end of the stick. Typical!

    //end joke

    If that rumor is any where close to being correct then I'll be shocked in a very good way. Even if it's closer to the $20 million previously rumored it will be amazing.

    I would guess this is the same guy in Thailand that made a donation to help us get back to Div I football back in the 90's?

  4. The announcement will be made this evening at a reception. My wife and I will be attending the reception. I believe it begins at 7:30PM, and I think it runs until about 9PM. I am sure it will be in tomorrow's papers.

    I am really looking forward to attending and hearing first hand "what's up" and yes, I am hearing it is BIG. The number being thrown around is $20million plus...we'll see. Sorry i cannot say more at this time. I have been asked not to do so....soon...patience. Let's all just know that IS a big deal for UNT.

    Feel free to post an update tonight once the news is announced.
