That’s weak. We’ve played them more than anyone else in our school’s history, IIRC.

 

For some reason, I got caught up in the context of how long it takes to build an FBS program.

If we're speaking strictly in terms of pride, I don't disagree with you.

I would not be surprised to see them added to the schedule down the road.  With no real TV revenue this is an easy trip and not a real costly one.   I think in the future we see more regionally schedule games.  I prefer to play them over Body Bag games until we prove we can compete with the owners of the Body Bags.

      Its a different story when you are comparing blue blood programs. Alabama can recruit anyone from anywhere. Memphis can't (and still won't despite a fairly impressive NIL commitment).

      UTSA absolutely does not have a better location. SA is not a great area for HS football talent and they do not have deep NIL pockets. They are maximizing their value and holding the programs to a high standard. Good for them. But if you poll the vast majority of G5 coaches/administrators on which program has a better foundation I'd argue most would lean towards UNT.

      LOL. SMU is small potatoes in why college athletics is in its current state. You really think SMU was even the most egregious cheater in the 80's halcyon days? Get real. Paying players is as old as the game itself. What has changed in the last 10-15 years is the amplification of money via social media as well as TV contracts that have ballooned raising everything from coaches salaries to facilities to yes.....NIL. Blaming SMU for anything to do with where things are headed in college athletics is beyond stupid. Everything that's being done now is being directed by the TV suits. Nothing more. Nothing less. You're letting hatred blind you.

      You're spot on. But the university has been playing into that hippy weird BS for a long time, too. And we can bring demographics into this, too. And for good or bad, I don't know; nor do I really care. But conservative white boys/men is the driving force behind the consumption of and donating base to collegiate athletics. The university goes out of its way to diversify the enrollment. Which is fine and all, but it's just another variable pulling away from athletics. And there seems to be a lot of variables, controllable and uncontrollable. Why do you think the SEC can whip whoever they want with money at a moments notice? Answer: White conservative men throwing money at their collectives and scholarship funds.

      That's like saying Alabama is still Alabama stuck in Tuscaloosa. There was and is zero value placed in the education these kids receive, the free housing, meals, tutoring, healthcare, etc... when less than 5% will earn money in professional sports once they are done in college. 99% of these young men and women should be picking a school that has the major of their choosing and that has a track record of preparing them for their life after sports. Too many people are telling these kids to get all the money they can right now with zero thought about their education and the life lessons that should be being taught at this time.
