    All to lose to a 5-seed in hoops and pay Dana Holgorsen $4 mil+ per year to lose to Rice and go 2-7 in conference play.

    UNT can't get past the 2nd round and lose to FCS Schools 66-7.

    This isn’t Cougar High’s board. Do some research before posting. 

    We're a high school yet have higher admissions standards, better academics, 5 times UNT's endowment, play in a P5 conference and have a Top 5 Basketball Team.

     

    Come on man lmao.

    Beat Eastern Michigan 100-57 tonight while shooting 62% overall from the field (52% from 3).

     

    And they did it in front of a crowd of 3,100

    Their arena only holds 2900, so they were at SRO capacity.

     

    You should research that before posting.

    How’s your current guy working out?  Lol

     

    He sucks just like your guy does. He also managed to beat your previous guy and actually beats UTSA.

    Jimbo would get a statue at Houston if he had those records. However, A$M has much higher standards and rightfully so.

    When you're a state flagship, draw 100k every game and play in the SEC, have dozens of 5 star recruits, there are ZERO excuses. 

    You have generational fans about to cancel season tickets. A change has to be made.

     

    If that were true, Tony Levine and Major Applewhite would still be coaching here. Both were fired after 8-5 seasons.

     

     

    UNT however, embraced and marketed going 6-6 as a goal under Dan McCarney

    I guess I am wondering why Tech and UH get 2/3 of the funds and we have to split our 1/3 with Texas State…

    It's just part of the political food chain, UNT and Texas State don't have as many alums in the state legislature like Tech and UH does. This was created because Tech and UH went to war with UT and A&M over the PUF.

    As a concession, this was created.

    The #NFL has ordered Houston to cease the usage of Oilers-inspired alternate, powder blue uniforms, citing trademark infringement. (via @HoustonChron, @redditcfb)
     
    Couldn't have happened to a nicer bunch of guys!

    Don't worry @DeepGreen I'm sure UNT will get a C&D from Hannah Barbera because of all the Secret Squirrel mascot stuff.

    USM got left behind in CUSA when the AAC formed in 2014 from a combo of Big East football schools and CUSA move-ups.  They were again left behind in this last AAC expansion and have since left CUSA for the SunBelt.

    I said before markets became a thing in realignment. Mid 2000s.

    USM was once a Boise-type program back in the day.  They have a 36,000 seat on-campus stadium and have beaten several power programs, including Alabama 4 times, Florida St., Ole Miss, etc.  Southern Miss head coach Jeff Bower had 14 straight winning seasons from 1994-2007 including 6 Bowl wins (one over NT).  But, like mentioned, their football has declined and they are in a small market, thus have been left behind in realignment.  

    Southern Miss's mistake was never capitalizing in their success. They could have potentially parlayed this into joining the Big East before markets became a thing in conference realignment and truly invested in their football program.

     

    According to their fans, they have a history of incompetent admins and a lack of big money donors. Hell, the school endowment is only $100 million.

    Where are those that were saying Texas FCS schools bring good crowds and it's a good reason to keep scheduling them? From what I saw it didn't look like many were in the stands. 

    You can't rely on the other team to bring fans. If they do great, if they don't then oh well, its not their responsibility to fill the stadium.
