The rules are now made for the more successful programs to raid lower tier teams for talent.

I don't blame the twins for anything, but taken advantage of the system as it now situated. 

This one time free transfer and bidding for players under the NIL current rules will ruin any semblance to competitive fairness. 

I hope the NCAA grows some courage and fights for their existence, and challenges the recent court rulings. 

They see coaches move to perceived better opportunities and do the same. It's no different from you or I moving to a better job. I certainly would trade UCLA for UNT.

You don't have to read the thread if you don't like. Unless it picked on you in high school, or hit on your wife, I think you are pretty well protected from the harm it could cause you.

Do not blame them for taking advantage, but there is also no obligation for UNT fans to wish them well or hope they secede.

To be fair, I don't care what they do at UCLA From here, but I would absolutely support them in breaking off from the NCAA and starting Murphy State University.

Seems to me a package deal is what they have always wanted. Were we the the best team to offer them both out of high school?

Dumb question. I was referring to PAC 12 football vs CUSA. I grew up in FT. Worth in lower middle class neighborhood and choices were either sign up for the draft [1961] or North Texas State. [ minimum wage was 75 cents an hour, tuition was $5 an hour plus $2.50 lab fee.]If I had it to do over again I would have gone into military and then college. What about you? Daddy have enough money for out of state tuition?
