Wow. I never saw that one. I only ever saw the video of the TD catch out of bounds later in the game.

64 is too large for a separate conference really. There are only about a dozen schools that can move the needle nationally, another dozen who have large regional followings, and another dozen who do well enough within their own market to justify their existence $-wise. If the point is for the Ohio States and the UTs of the worlds to maximize their value, I imagine they would like to keep in to within 40 teams.

Dude is a legend in HS circles. When you win like that, people don't care about your personality.
I haven't heard anyone mention this, but TxState's Kinne played HS ball for Traylor at Gilmer.I don't doubt it. I'm sure his personality is fine too. Clearly, he has a good football mind and people like to play for him. I'm just a little bewildered based on his interviews alone.

I can't quite figure Traylor out... He's been so successful, but Lord, every video I watch of him, he seems dumber than a bag of rocks. He's like the middle school football coach you run into at the bar.

We were competitive in 4 games in dodge's first season and blown out in most of them... In the subsequent seasons it was no better. In case we all need a reminder
I was thinking of 2009 where I think we lost 6 games by a score or less. I believe that was the argument for keeping him on another year at the time.

AND the offense is setting us up for failure in first half of games.
When the D is soooo bad the offense can't continue being 1st half no shows. 10 points scored in the the 1st half of last 2 games. That's going to extend an already really bad defense and make them work more than anyone wants to see.
Yes, the defense can't spot the opposition 31 first half points. But the offense has to carry their weight and keep the D off the field.
Also, Caponi gotta go. I wasn't here during the Dodge years. I got on board right after. But this is the worst defense I have personally seen UNT ever field. That dead weight has to be let go. To add, 475k is grotesque misuse of funds. I'm not sure how it's allowed to continue even at this point, nevertheless giving him a second year.
It feels exactly like the Dodge years. Score a ton of points, give up a ton, and barely lose them all.

Frankly.. it doesn't matter.. We all know we are headed to a 2 megaconference league (SEC, BIG10) and everything else will basically be considered 1-AA. ACC, Big12, AAC, PAC, Sunbelt.. sure some might be slightly preferable to others, but once the bigs break away we're in the minor league system...

The whole I-35 corridor between Austin and San Antonio has exploded in population over the last 20 years. Kyle, just north of San Marcos, is the 3rd fastest growing city in the whole US. Austin has gotten too expensive and the schools crummier, so folks keep moving outward.

I think Dayton has a more National brand. We could play them in the Charleston Tourney second game, either them or LSU.
Interesting. I didn't know Dayton had such a big following. On paper VCU looks like it's been the more successful program of the two over the last couple decades.

"I'm told Cal, Stanford and SMU are in the process of finalizing a deal to join the ACC in football, men's basketball and women's basketball..."
That will be interesting to see where Smut tries to park the rest of their minor sports. I think the Southland might have some openings!!
And Stanford sponsors like 30 sports, but were already talking about maybe cutbacks along with Cal.
I thought we established that you had to play the sports that your conference sponsors. Are the any conferences that sponsor everything other than football and basketball? Surely not.

Wouldn't be the worst thing to have an excuse to take a trip to Corvallis. I don't know that any of our fans would be excited by a trip to Pullman though.

Meh. Maybe, but I saw something about a Tuesday vote on Twitter earlier and the source seemed...sketchy. I tend to think there is a lot of circular information floating it's way through these boards. Regardless, I was under the impression that conference additions had to be pretty much unanimous in practice even if technically not required. Would the ACC really move ahead if multiple schools opposed?

So much wheel spinning on here.
If Cal and Stanford are focusing their efforts to get out of the PAC, then nobody, not even SMU, is going to waste time and money to get into a conference with freakin Oregon State and Washington State.
Aresco also can't ethically negotiate a group of schools out of the conference and he certainty couldn't do so and become the new PAC commissioner. He would be buried in lawsuits.

You can't have sports split across conferences. If the conference you are in sponsors that sport, your sport must play there. That's why every football only member has it's olympic sports in a non-fb sponsoring conference.
Ahhh.. Good info. Thanks!

I understand Cal and Stanford wanting to be in the ACC for football, but it'd be a nightmare for all other sports. Maybe they'd join the ACC for football and the AAC for everything else (with OSU and WSU as full members). Stanford would be a huge get.

If the PAC implodes, losing to many of their members they will just cherry pick the best from the MWC and AAC and create a West and East division to reduce travel expenses. It may not immediately garnish acceptance as a so called P5 but it will move it into the top of the so called G5 while eliminating a conference as the leftovers merge into the Sun Belt 3. That’s where we will land.
Eventually the new PAC will inch it’s way to a place at the P5 table.
It depends on who all bails. If Oregon, Washington, and Arizona go to the Big 12, I don't think there is enough appeal to what is left.. Eyeballs are scarce out west even with the best teams and these aren't the best teams. The media rights the rump PAC would get probably couldn't even justify the buyout for the MWC schools. If Oregon and Washington stay in the PAC it probably survives.

It's pretty amazing the Wyoming is able to maintain a FBS school. The entire state is only a little more than half the population of Denton County.

I will say that I have seen folks I know post about their kid being at this camp. I think this is the first time I've ever seen that on my social media.

I'm not that close to it anymore, but I can tell you high school jazz programs all around the country are very familiar with UNT. I'd say it's still considered tops in Jazz, tops in affordability, and (along with Indiana) tops for public schools and non-East Coast/LA music schools. I don't know that you're going to find a lot of good school rankings out there. Many of them probably considered SAT scores and such for the entire college, which of course is going to give you some strange results.

Diversity and Inclusion. Unless it's people who think differently than we do, because we don't want that sort of diversity around.

I imagine being the defending tournament champion helps a little.
