  1. Acadamia is biased towards regional universities?
  2. Just to clarify, I havne't ready anywhere that he pulled his money out of this. He is not quitting financially; rather, just not actively involved in other areas. He has still articulated his desire to speak to donors. Still, how effective a salesman can you be if you've publicly announced your frustration with the product?
  3. Well that's, just, like, your opinion, man.
  4. We need every fan we can get. Let's not play the "only true, die-hard fan" game.
  5. Who could have anticipated a Rangers thread hitting 19 pages?
  6. Lets just get some dirt turned on this thing. Thanks for your time.
  7. Not necessarily. You have to be sensitive to what we don't know (not really pointing at you here), and this could be a case of UNT sticking to their guns and Goldfield wanting something done his way. Having said that, nothing new has come about the last 4 months that we, Goldfield and the AD didn't already know about. Al knew this was not private and what was involved, he knew we had our design and that we were purusing LEED standards. I am anxious to see what other perspectives people will provide, but for now it's hard for me to see anything but a department that should have done everything in their ability to keep this guy actively involved. A simple phone call once a month to our largest donor in history does not sound hard. It is not like we have large donors lined up in DFW to help us out. The idea that something is holding us up and the department is biting their tongue is pretty scary.
  8. Kinda chuckled that you edited this 3rd post, Rick.
  9. SHould be interesting to see where she shows up next and how the Alaskan voters determine what she gets.
  10. I don't think it is being scoffed at. In my untrained opinion, I would think the front office is assuming these numbers into their budget and not necessarily rejoicing in it. Considering the improved play/record, any increase in attendance should be expected. That's just the way the market works... ...I don't know how it is graded/pro-rated, etc, but if I am working in that office I am more interested in %s, such as butts-in-seats per win (and comparing those numbers to how other successful MLB franchises are doing). Or something similar... I also imagine that 3 million is practically couch change for any major league franchise. ...just stating the obvious for most of you. But that's what I am here for sometimes.
  11. Nothing new here. Same old whip for the fans I watch drop UNT fandom after the first loss every year.
  12. You can't touch us, we have a new AC. And tennis courts.
  13. I'll take a 3 year old vote for the revisit, Alex.
  14. Why are you dismissing other sports in a conference affiliation debate?
  15. Euless has endless hot sports opinion. Practically a new thread everyday, even soccer!
  16. I always thought of Baylor as the Big XII's token private school.
