PB also coached at SMU before they changed their entrance requirements for athletes

Why do I somehow get the feeling that if this happens and there is a split - we end up with Judy over our new conference.

Let me just say, if you did this it would most likely reduce the quality of future applicants. We can all be as mad as hell and want him out, but for a University to do this they would be seen as trying to embarrass the man and while some might say he deserves it, I think the college athletic world might look at it differently.

Sounds like a new AD came in and did not like him

Transfer from Okie State - Played a bit in the Bowl game last season and then was off the team.

People see "San Antonio" and think possibilities. When they dig a little deeper it gets murky. It comes down to how much they value the SA market. I think as fans we get more caught up in the "hot" programs (what hap if "X" leaves) whereas hopefully the Presidents are digging deeper.

Thank you for sharing. I hope your journey continues to head in the right direction.

We might also be in line for an episode of Cops or a visit from Nancy Grace

The Big12 will still be as good, if not better than the Pac12

This highlights my concern when these things happen and the person is not convicted. He was arrested, charges were dropped, yet his life will never be them same.

Did they ever say what happened with him? He is at SFA

I am sure your right and @GreenBackerwas not trying to accuse. I am just not a big fan of putting out information like this until there are more facts. If he's guilty let the cards fall where they may but there are many cases where those accused are never able to recover

Understand. Not willing to report but willing to post on change.org? If he is guilty let him face the consequences. But let's try and wait for facts.

You were doing the right thing; not trying to get the scoop. Would hope someone would wait for the facts until they post something that could ruin a persons life. Not saying it should be ignored, just wait until some facts come to life. If this turns out to be wrong then hopefully @GreenBacker apologizes to VP.

Was he arrested? Hopefully it's not another Guilty until proven innocent or not charged, and even then he no longer deserves a chance (Tate Wallis example). Let's let it work itself out before we sit in judgement

I think he waits a little longer for a P5 job to open up - Houston/Tech/TCU

I think something that might help us is there are honestly no programs in CUSA or the Belt that come close, at least presently. to what the AAC is losing. The "star" programs in the MWC seem like they would rather hold off for a P5 invite. I think people are putting a lot more emphasis on football than these conference might be. They cannot be thinking short-term. They needs to look at the overall developments within athletic departments over the past 6+ years and where is honestly looks like they are headed. If you adding based on "hot" teams look at programs like Costal, Louisiana, and UTSA. You have to think what happens if their current HC leaves? What is their infrastructure and are they progressing. If the presidents are making additions based on "rah-rah" and not sound business plans then they are not doing their jobs.

What still throws a wrench in everything is the status of the B12. They will add more teams. Could they still lose teams? I guarantee Memphis, USF, and SMU are in constant contact with the B12. Todays Speculation (sure to be wrong) If the B12 would go ahead and make it's moves and takes 2 more AAC teams the "mergers" between CUSA-AAC-Belt would follow in line quickly If the B12 takes a couple of MWC teams it opens up good chances for UNT-UTSA to the MWC These "talks" might force the MWC to be proactive - this could be good for UNT. If the MWC sits back and merger talks move forward and then they lose a team or 2 they could be in a tough place If all hell breaks loose and the B12 looses 2-4 more teams then you probably see a combination of teams across several conferences with a complete shakeup

I am sure the Presidents of OU and Texas were 100% committed to the B12 - Until they weren't

His wife is the Volleyball coach at SFA so I guess we would need to hire her also 😇

I think when you look at what he came into at SFA and how they played last season and this year he has them improving. Is also someone who it seems has the UNT job high on his list of where he would like to be. I think he could a a "Holtz like" coach.

Seems like a lot of the same people that bitched about our conference not being aggressive are taking jabs when they are.

A few, though they hate it, admit it makes sense

With Smatresk chairing the BOD what are the chances we are pushing for the MWC behind the scenes?
