[Finances delaying addition of Mean Green baseball and men’s soccer]

Good god this Athletic department is a disaster.  RV needs to get off his fat ass and be proactive, rather than just waiting for money to appear like magic.  

[DRC: Villarreal calls club seat prices very reasonable as renewals begin]

Wow. The timing of the renewals couldn't be worse.  Coming off one of the worst football seasons in history.  You have to be REALLY optimistic about Coach Littrel to even give second thought to renewing.  

If I were a club seat holder, I think I'd hold off for a season to see how things play out before I consider purchasing seats again.  

[Benford termination watch thread]

I have been waiting for Benford to get fired since almost the moment they hired him.  But, since he was able to talk Tony Mitchell into sticking around, I figured I'd give him the benefit of the doubt.  

After his disaster 12-20 first season, I think we've all known it was time for Benford to go.  RV needs to sack up and fire him.  

Maybe we'll get lucky, RV will look in the mirror, see how crappy he is at his job, and follow Benford out the door.  

[MGB: Frazier officially joins UNT as Benford points to next season]

So, Benford didn't think they'd be good the last 4 seasons?  But, NEXT season.... You'll all see!

[Cowherd: "Screw Middle Tennessee State."]

For someone who has his own Sports Talk Radio show, he sure seems to hate sports.  

[Breaking: Darvin Kidsy Arrested]

I don't think I would go as far as calling Kidsy a cancer.  As far as we know, he has never been in trouble and has been a good teammate.  Hit and run is not good and I would never condone it, but the situation could have caused him to panic.  Football is the least of his worries at this time. 

My mistake.  I mixed up Kidsy and D'Aundrey Bradley.   Still, Kidsy has bigger problems than football right now, probably should focus on his legal troubles.  

[Breaking: Darvin Kidsy Arrested]

Sounds like Kidsy is a cancer.  He needs to worry about getting his life together, and not football.  Cut him loose.  

[Marshall (1/14/16)]

I feel sad that I only come to the basketball board to see if Benford has been fired yet.  Is someone worried that we're gonna lose all his recruits?  Those same recruits will leave on their own after 1 year.

[USA Today released annual list of FBS assistant salaries]

344   North Carolina    ACC    Seth Littrell    $251,000    --    $251,000       (Max Bonus $20,917)

If these numbers are correct, then Littrell is getting around a $1,000,000 pay raise.  Not too shabby.

[UNT jet in route to UNC]

Was the I wonder if the flight was catered by Jimmy Johns?

[Littrell to be named UNT HC per Brett McMurphy]

Not joining any arguments...

I really hope the Littrell hire works out.

Also, thanks for all RV has done for UNT, but it's time for him to go.  We need a new vision and direction for UNT Athletics. 

[Richt to Miami]

I was hoping he would take the South Carolina job.  Word is they contacted him, but he wanted to go back to Miami.  

I hope Georgia doesn't end up regretting they let him go.  (They will.)

[UNT Ranked Third Worst Team of 2015]

This means we get the 3rd pick in the draft, right!?  

[Josh Greer in the game and Pick six]

So funny story, Josh Greer's sister actually confronted me and told me to "back the f**k off" because I was angry that Greer was in the game. I understand her being upset because it's her brother, but the worst I said was "why the hell would you put him in the game Canales?!". I hardly ever yell anything at games as it is, but good lord it pissed me off so much that coach Chico thought it'd be a good idea to randomly throw him in the game to toss a game changing pick-6. And to be clear, I'm not mad at Greer at all, the guy was simply doing as he was told, but the coach should have known better than to put him in the game.  

Maybe I should just stick to the student side from now on.

Was she hot?

 

[Look Mama, We Made It (Out)!]

Not officially on the list, but we get mentions in 2 of the top 10 spots (3 & 6) plus the waiting list.  We're on this list even if we're not on the list.  Geesus we're terrible at football and things.

[UNT at Marshall Predictions]

Marshall  -  66

NT  -  7

 

[RV: Dodge was a good hire based on who we could hire]

Since RV keeps talking about how it's a marathon, does that mean we have to put up with his crap for another 11.2 years?

[D. Smith]

I really liked what I saw out of Smith.  Looks like there is a ton of potential there.  

The only time McNulty or Greer should see the field again is pre-game stretching and post game handshakes.  

[Attendance]

This game looks and sounds really sad on TV.  Little to no crowd or energy.  Even the band sounds like they don't want to be there.  

[Highlights from McCarney's Final Game at NT]

That was really pretty funny to watch.  Thank god they showed me all 3 angles of the touchdown!  "No shutout today!"

[Official Southern Miss Score Prediction Thread]

We suck again!

[** North Texas @ Iowa prediction thread **]

Only touchdown we score is on a fumble recovery.

[MGB breaking news -- UNT athletics gets $1.25 mil. donation]

Hero.

[Official Rice Game Score Prediction Thread]

Rice  -  38

UNT  -  6

 

[McNulty]

Horrible play by a "d1" QB.  I'd rather watch a monkey humping a doorknob than the crap we had running the offense tonight.
