Can we have a Georgia State and UTSA W-L blog. Both have good non-high school coaches who will when more games in two years with new programs, than UNT has won in 4 years.
when more games?
About two weeks from today...
I love how this one simmered all afternoon, as if in a crockpot, until just the right time.
Congratulations to the 3 of you on this spectacular display of comedy. It was truly beautiful.

didn't we recruit hager?!
I think we recruited his brother Bron? I think he was a diabetes casualty.

Not sure I would wish that on anyone even though he's a doucher but he really needs to look at himself in the mirror and identify his douchyness.
...and then graduate. We don't need any more APR hits.

A 3-4 look on Defense? Do we have big enough guys for a 3 man front? I think if I were any coach lining up against UNT's 3 man front, I audible to a run up the middle. We don't have the size for that. Although AK in that hybrid DE-OLB role would be a perfect fit for him. I doubt we'll see this look much, if at all during games.

Get him Johnny!
Hopefully Williams is doing what he said he would do, and convincing these guys to join him here.

I think you may only be telling half the story though...this just in from Chip Brown:
Coker was unhappy with his demotion to assistant special teams coach...you know, considering he has more NFL players than any other coach...so he challenged Mack Brown to a knife fight, but came out on the losing end after Brown made a brave, 2005 Vince Young-esque flurry of swipes at Coker's right side...which was slowed, mid-fight, by a stroke.
Coker is in critical condition.
Just read on Bleacher Report:
Coker asked for a release from his coaching duties so that he could join the live music scene as a dulcimer extraordinaire. When Brown would not grant the release, Coker grabbed a replica samurai sword, swung it vigorously and wildly towards Brown, finally lacerating his own right side. Brown remained seated the whole time although conflicting reports say Deloss Dodds was seen fleeing the scene with what appeared to be a blowdart gun, or a sex toy.

Larry Coker revealed earlier today that he is retiring from coaching.

Why not? They still compete in non football athletics and it may not be a bad idea down the track to add a few more non football schools. Its worked out well for a few other conferences.
I'm tired of Denver pooping on coach Hedlund and the ladies' tourney dreams.

The WAC is now looking very weak. I would expect them to extend us another offer. If this happens, I hope RV continues his "wait & see" approach, and tables that offer. We have options!
We will have to "wait & see" if BYU goes through with their threat, and if so, it's possible that the MWC would have more moves to make. I highly doubt that "wait & see" means "sit & do nothing". I'll bet RV has made a pitch or two to MWC officials. This is a possibility (albeit a very small possibility)!
If the shakeups are ferocious enough and ConfUSA is affected, then we have yet another possibility open to us. We'll have to "wait & see".
Folks, this is where our Interim President can make a HUGE difference for The University of North Texas. I'm thinking that with him at the helm at this time, we're in good shape. His connections are very well known, and this is not his first rodeo.
And, when the smoke clears, if UNT is still in the Sun Belt, it is because that is the best place for us to be with the options we had (which none of us on GMG.com know).
Trust in Lane. Trust in RV. Go Mean Green!

How much editing had to happen in order for that video to go up? Coach D-Lo probably was biting his tongue alot as well.

ColaTiger42,
How many times have you heard/uttered the phrase, "At least our band was better than theirs" after a Clemson butt-kicking?

I don't know about that. That's 2 quality programs lost and not just in football.
I agree with the non-football sports.
Utah & BYU are both strong programs top to bottom, and Utah has been a BCS buster lately, but as far as football goes, replacing Utah and (speculating) BYU with Boise St. is a wash IMO.

Admittedly the MWC would be a better situation but I'd want to see a guarantee that TCU stays (saving an invite from the Big 12-2).
With Utah and Brigham Young gone I'm thinking that the Mountain West has lost a lot of its allure for TCU. With less than stellar marquis names, and the distance involved, it wouldn't surprise me to see the Frogs receptive to CUSA once again.
Didn't Boise State just join the MWC? Football-wise, adding them makes up for the loss of Utah and (possibly) BYU combined.

Hopefully his grades were in order.
Best of luck to Dez in the future.

If this is true then this is good news for the WAC. BYU is good in Baseball and Basketball and riding bikes with white shirts and black ties.
I wonder if BYU's cycling team is nationally ranked? Is there a Collegiate cycling governing body?

Nope.
Here are some other good questions that everyone has opinions on. Would you please divulge your answers?
Why did the chicken cross the road?
What the heck?
You've got to ask yourself a question, "Do I feel lucky?". Well do you; Punk?
Why isn't UNT in the Big 12?
By the way, scientific studies have shown that 89% of Americans enjoy NCAA football over the NFL. Fact.

The "if we were in Conference USA, we'd get killed" argument is idiotic. Could I buy that there is more talent across the board in CUSA? Probably. But...take Coach Jones & company, put North Texas in a Conference USA schedule with their resources at his disposal & the results would be similar to now in short order.
Still looking for a big bag of money to give Coach Jones. I'll keep ya'll updated on that situation.
There's always this tactic:

My goal is to get to the top of this list in one month. SBC praise here we come.
I started you on your way.
Best of luck!

Hey, What are you guys' favorite memories of UNT athletics from the last 10 years?
I'll start: The game at Tech in 1997 was awesome!
Also, when the golf team won the National Championships in 1949 - 1952... incredible!

Wow! I kinda used to think the anymosity was one-sided. There is some major douchery going on in that thread.
Even though there are 1 million + reasons why; I can't believe little ol' North Texas could be the envy of any smu fan.
The dude who said that UNT would be a sub .500 team in CUSA was my favorite.
Enjoy coach Doh and your sub .500 team smu fans!
at least there are a few people who understand basketball on there...

You know USU officials are hacked about this! That was a once in a lifetime opportunity.
I cannot wrap my mind around why the MWC would want USU and not a myriad of other teams. USU would probably be one of the last schools I would think the MWC would approach to join their conference (over the likes of Houston/UTEP, or even Idaho/NMSU).
Is the Utah TV market that big of a deal?
