Some interesting notes in there.

Army has some  games scheduled that could get cancelled when they move to the AAC. Maybe there could be some interesting schools (Coastal Carolina? Air Force? Tulsa? Syracuse? Boston College?) looking to fill a 2028 slot who might want a home and home with us?

Army and Navy are so boring to watch. Handoff....run, handoff other side...run, option...run. BORING.

I would take them ANY day over SMU. Please let this happen.  Our conference will be stronger for the exchange.

That's what I was thinking a few weeks ago. Would be cool to go watch a Mean Green game in Boston or at the Carrier Dome.

It's been a little quiet on this lately, hopefully things are still moving in a positive direction.

I attended the two Army games at West Point and attended the Navy game this past weekend at the Naval Academy.  All were very memorable, but seeing a North Texas flag flying above the Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium as a conference mate was pretty special.  Hopefully, we'll see one flying above Michie Stadium in the future and both flying above DATCU stadium.

A few quick thoughts:

  • Competition: Playing Army provides a challenge and an opportunity to test our skills. It also helps us to improve our game, as we learn from our mistakes and from the strategies of our opponents.
  • Fun: Playing against another Army adds to the fun and excitement, as we all work together to achieve a common goal.
  • Community: These games can bring people together from all walks of life. Playing against Army can foster a sense of community and rivalry, which can be a positive force in people's lives.
  • Tradition: Playing against Army is a way to carry on this tradition and to share our love of the game with others.

Honestly, for the AAC the timing isn't super crucial (unlike for the PAC2 where the silence should scare the bejeesus out of their fans). If it takes a bit longer and only happens in 2025, then that is no disaster for the AAC. Yes the uneven number would make scheduling in 2024 a bit tougher for the admins, but it could be done. I take it, that if you push Army's entrance by a year that would reduce that 35 million number by a whole lot.

I don't know if their fans think it would make sense for them, but I would love this move!

I don't know much about VCU compared to Dayton.  Which is the better National brand for us to get?

Next domino for basketball may be VCU.

 

 

VCU would be a tremendous get. They are my preferred school of the talked about candidates. Also I assume the headline is a mistake and it should be "Olympic Sports Member" not "Basketball-only Member" ?

      Boise State

      The point is, mid-season change can be done without throwing the season away as was suggested would happen if a certain DC was fired. Sometimes you just don't have the roster pieces to be elite. I understand that and I'm sure most do as well. That said, it takes poor coaching to be dead last out of 133 in any given category. After a 4 game losing streak where the defense allowed 35 or more and you got knocked out of bowl contention, a change would have been acceptable. I think it would have been acceptable after Memphis dropped 42 and drove down the field with 30 seconds to win the game. Instead, we made no changes and watched UAB drop 42 on us in embarrassing fashion as the tackling looked equally as bad in game 12 as it did game 1. As a fan, I just hope the portal giveth some studs so we don't waste the final year of Rogers college career.

      The NT Purge of 2023

      I absolutely agree. I think NCAA is in need of changes. I can’t see us continuing down this path the way things are going. I do think the American is going to be wide up next year. Will be interesting which team has most success this off season reloading.

      The NT Purge of 2023

      JD- Believe it or not we agree on more than we don't. I just been state facts and feel without a strong NIL or winning culture, it is tough to make big jumps quickly. If we had stayed in CUSA, we would have defiantly made a bowl this year. Heck, just winning ONE of our close losses puts us in a bowl and I doubt this drastic transformation would have happened. I might be wrong. Power 5 football is a business inside the facilities and the kids know it. Now G5 is trying to play the same game with fewer bullets in the gun unless you have deep pockets. The old saying- football is a game of inches. Just think one Memphis play might have just changed the whole course of action at UNT.

      The NT Purge of 2023

      Miner and Nwaiwu are concerning. Would any starter types be welcomed back if they had a “change of heart”?

      Transfer Portal Entries

      I’m sure this was meant to be a facetious comment.. but outside of Maclin, Ayo, Wilson, Miner and Febechi I don’t see staff losing any sleep over any one else that has hit portal so far. And 3 of the 5 I listed were walk ons and 1 of the others only offer out of portal was UNT. Sucks losing them. But it’s happening to everyone. There is over 1000 guys in portal right now. Almost 10 per team
