  1. The AAC as a conference needs to schedule better. Just looking at our schedule, we should only have two of these: Wayland Baptist, Evansville, Texas Wesleyan, Mississippi Valley State, Houston Christian, High Point, App State. A bunch of no names that completely ruin our SOS. I get needing a tune up game or two to begin the season, but after that it needs to be balls to the wall in out of conference. The AAC is too weak, and by the time we hit that schedule (for the most part) there's nowhere to go but down.
  2. RV was very good at the gladhanding portion of the job, and advanced facilities in a way very few other people may have been able to do. Main problem was, outside of Johnny Jones, the man was incapable of picking a good football or basketball coach.
  3. Because he's paid $500k+ a year to run a business, and from the outside looking in, that business is in decline.
  4. It worries me that the school has added more than 14k students and the city of Denton has grown more than 50% since Johnny Jones started coaching at the school and attendance has been relatively flat and is now decreasing. Maybe getting people to care starts with the AD deciding to care.
  5. What are the notches on his belt? What can he currently point to as "I did that"? I'm genuinely curious. Ross Hodge was an obvious choice and already here, but kudos I guess on not flubbing an easy one. I won't list what I feel like are the shortcomings, because I'm genuinely curious what makes him the best AD since Hayden Fry. I will say this man is being paid over half a million dollars a year, and the trajectory seems to be downwards.
  6. I realize we're probably not going to buy out Mosley's contract, but he better be out after 2027. He's just absolutely awful at his job.
  7. It's not a zero sum game. The problem can both be that students and locals aren't putting in the effort to be connected to their university just as much as the AD doesn't market or promote anything. One can be controlled and the other cannot.
  8. Not promoting basketball games is a long standing tradition that goes back to at least 2003 with RV (probably earlier as well, but that was before my time). To this day, the biggest promotion for basketball in the last 20+ years was organized by students for the TCU game in 2004, self funded plus donations by people from this forum to pay for it.
  9. I'm seriously pissed beyond a funny GIF here. Second to last in the conference in ticket sales. Last in 'Total Support'. Last in Contributions. Laughably last in Collective Funding. Still nowhere near moving dirt on the new AC. Declining basketball attendance despite a 13-4 record. Someone fire this man.
  10. I am. Haven't seen anything to indicate Mosley is anywhere close on this. The fact that it's separated out into two phases on lightthetower, and the FAQ is basically warning that just because phase 1 is done doesn't mean phase 2 will start immediately after gives me very little confidence in this AD.
