Not NT related, but VERY disappointed the USGA did not put Koepka and Dechambeau together for rounds 1 and 2. 

Why?  It is would be nothing more than a distraction.

Because it would be entertaining. And that’s the point. 

I understand your point, but if they are going to be paired together in opening rounds, I would prefer it not be the U.S. Open.  This is traditionally the toughest set-up for the golfers and an added distraction of playing with someone you hate could take away from their performance.  Let the Quad Cities Open, or something of that stature, pair them up, but I prefer to see the players playing their best at the U.S. Open and not distracted by some man made arrrangement.

FYI, there is another Ortiz, Alvaro, from Mexico in the field who has already teed off and is -1 through 3 holes.  The updated tee times for Carlos and Sebastian are below.

Carlos Ortiz: 5:28pm CST on #1

Sebastian Munoz: 5:39 CST on #10

Just discovered that Alvaro is Carlos' brother.  I posted a link to a story in another thread.

      I believe this, but it would take the city getting involved and the AD giving two shits about the future of this program. All they do is ask the alumni to give and give more. What is my ROI? Watching Edwards and Nolan show up for a year and then move along? I would rather give that money to a scholarship my family established at North Texas to provide for current students and young men and women that are preparing for their future. UNT has wasted opportunity after opportunity to move up. They own valuable I35 real estate that millions of vehicles pass daily. Any naming rights sold for those facilities? Memphis has the FedEx Forum. Why not the Peterbilt Super Pit with signage along the roof of the building?

      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.
