I always thought 'bama could swing with the best of them, dollar-wise. Am I mistaken?
UT and TAMU have WAY more money than Bamer. They get some type of oil fund here in the state that no other college gets a piece of. Bama has to recruit students from out of state and gets mainly kids that can't get into UT and TAMU. Quite frankly Bama is a crappy academic school in a very crappy state.

I am pretty sure I ran into him at the Hill tailgating area a couple of years ago and he was kind enough to offer my wife a drink as it was so damn hot on that day. Not surprisingly he had a cooler full of ice cold diet cokes that he offered us and I remember her being extremely grateful for it.

I tell you with Sam Houston moving up to C-USA we better watch out -- they could be on a fast track up the ladder. And now they get to add more scholarships and better scheduling.

DENTON, Texas – Tez Dumars has been named assistant coach of North Texas women’s basketball, head coach Jalie Mitchell announced Tuesday. Dumars has served as the Founder and Executive Director of the West Texas Premier Basketball Club in Amarillo for the past two years.
“I am elated to announce the hiring of Tez Dumars”, Mitchell said. “He is a knowledgeable, hungry and growing young coach full of energy and excitement about the game, as well as the University of North Texas. His experience at different levels and relatability will help us a great deal in recruiting and player development. Tez is a star and proven winner, a welcome addition to our program!”
Prior to his time in Amarillo, he spent several seasons coaching and directing one of the DC Queens Club branches. In 2018-19, Dumars rejoined his alma mater West Texas A&M as an assistant coach. The Buffs went 34-4 and finished the season in the NCAA Division II Elite Eight.
After finishing his collegiate career in 2015, Dumars played professionally overseas with Anagennises Germasogeia and ForexTime Apollon of the Cyprus Division A League. During his first year as a pro he averaged 18.5 points per game and shooting 38.7% from the field and 32.8% from three-point range. He spent the 2016-17 season in Limassol, Cyprus with ForexTime Apollon.
A native of Dallas, Texas, Dumars manned the point for West Texas A&M for four seasons in Canyon. When he graduated, he was the fourth-highest scorer in school history with 1,230 points. As a Bluff he earned a bachelor’s (2015) in science of general studies. While playing at Garland Lakeview Centennial HS, he led the team to the Texas 5A State Finals as a junior and senior. Dumars was a four-year starter for the Patriots and also excelled in the classroom as a Texas Scholar.
QUOTING ASSISTANT COACH DUMARS (@tezdumars2)
“I’m super thrilled to get the opportunity to coach at the University of North Texas. Ever since I was little, I wanted to be around the game whether it was playing or coaching. It’s a dream come true to coach at UNT considering it’s in my backyard. I’m excited to get to work!”

The ACC is in all liklihood going to lose Clemson, FSU (and probably UNC and Miami) here soon. ESPN owns the ACC network and if it means strengthening the SEC they'll gladly cut a check to make sure their bell cow conference has the ammunition it needs to stay on top.
The ACC is the next one to go boom...
As much as it pains me to admit it I agree with you 100% on this. You SMU grads are smart fellers 😉

" Todd Dodge insisted on bring his high school staff as a requirement for his employment. It was a huge mistake to allow him to do so. Rick took a gamble and it didn't pay off."
Coach Russell, defense side, told me that rv didn't allow Dodge to retain the defensive coaches after he pleaded with rv to do so. We saw at OU the outcome immediately of rv's decision!
That is BS. We didn't have the budget to atract a top assistant so RV rolled the dice with Dodge. Dodge did want his assistants to stay but RV could have easily said no. RV didn't have the money to hire big name assistants and allowed Dodge to keep Ron Mendoza and the rest. That is the truth. It was in many ways a marriage of convenience.

Toddling off to bed and at this moment my outcome rankings from most to least likely.
1. B1G adds two more, some mix of Stanford, Oregon, Washington, the Arizona schools or Colorado. I think most likely is Oregon and either Stanford or Washington. PAC-8 makes a hard play to get 8 of the Big XII to defect. If unsuccessful congratulations SDSU, Boise, UNLV and if BYU says no, probably Hawaii.
2. B1G holds at 16, PAC-10 probably isn’t looking to join Big XII and vice versa unless someone gets panicky. If no panic, SDSU and Boise probably get the nod.
3. B1G adds four more. PAC-6 is reeling and Big XII probably just absorbs them unless there’s a big measure of regret in Big XII over expansion.Why does Cal seem to be the odd man out? I was impressed with them whence we played them.

Who was really pining for an update on the brother of a QB prospect who didn't work out for UNT? Especially if they are going to a school completely off the local radar?
In his defense we did offer his brother a preferred walk on scholarship so it does seem pertinent.

Wow hard to imagine a Pac 12 without these two. I would think this is VERY bad news for the Big 12 as The Pac 10 will want to add teams from the Big 12 to offset their losses. My guess is they would offer BYU, Texas Tech or maybe even Houston or Boise State.

We still don't have ATM money. If ATM threw real money 💰 at him he'd be in maroon next year. They didn't. No one did. And based solely on KD's "clothing line", this was a decision based on looking for money bags. No real bag fell in his lap, so he chose to stay so he'd at least be a full time starter.
What if it was a combination of all the known variables? KD’s paperwork was not yet finalized with the NCAA waiver; North Texas was already offering KD an undisclosed sum. A couple of other teams let primarily by ex UNT coach Marty Biagi threw there hat in the ring by offering a little more than what UNT would pay IF KD met certain playing requirement and received his waiver from the NCAA. UNT realizing that they might lose the heart of their defense and throw a couple more dollars at him. Maybe KD just looked at the players he would be competing against and thought he had a better chance to pad his stats here in a defense where he would get tons of playing time and tons of tackles. KD realized if you can play the NFL will find you no matter where you are.
