It seems trivial, but I never liked the way he consistently refers to NT and our conference as "G5," even if it's true. I don't recall Coach Littrell ever using that term to refer to us.
Honestly, I was hoping for a little more production out of our last 2 transfers. This kid averaged 2 points, 1 rebound and half an assist per game. Averaged 8 minutes a game and shoots only 39% free-throws. Now I realize the kid was a member of a Final 4 and played behind some good players. We see his athleticism and impressive dunks in his video's. Does he make UNT much better? Don't think so.
How's that analogy hold up? In the current setup, we still get to play P4 teams. At least for now, the ones we have scheduled are all home-and-homes. Do you have a comparable association with ex-Mrs. Brady?
The AAC took us on as a building project. We aren't there, but over the years they were hoping to turn us into a successful program with more media money and exposure.That's the plan for all of the CUSA schools they added.
Let's take a look at your scenario of 40 teams in the top. The Big10 is already at 18 and the SEC is at 16. Let's say The SEC takes UNC, FSU, Clemson, and Virginia. The Big10 takes Notre Dame and Stanford. that still leaves:
NCSU, Duke, Wake Forest, Georgia Tech, Miami, Va Tech, Boston College, Pitt,Syracuse, Louisville, Cal, SMU
Baylor, BYU, UCF, Cincy, Houston, Iowa St., Kansas, Kansas St., Oklahoma St., TCU, Texas Tech, WVU, Arizona, Arizona St. Colorado, Utah.
Why would these conferences not just join together and form a super conference? They could also pluck the desirable teams left in G5, and the schools always talked about are SDSU, Tulane, Memphis, USF. Sometimes you hear about UNLV, or UTSA/Rice, but not UNT. So how would we fit into that structure?
