I love it being in Fort Worth better than Frisco because it's an actual basketball venue and closer to home.
However, pictures of the terrible attendance throughout the week went viral on Twitter and the showing was not only ridiculed by other AAC fans, but college basketball fans in general. I haven't seen the 2028 announcement on Twitter yet but it's sure to more widespread disapproval.
The teams have to take advantage of the opportunity and make it to the title game, though, and more fans need to show up. We couldn't have gotten luckier with the scheduling this March - all three men's/women's games started at 6 p.m. or later.
The question that runs thru my mind is what happens to schools like ours for football and basketball? I mean, its very clear that the top levels could have as few as 24 schools up to 48, if you are only considering football. Add in college hoops and you'll add in some Big East schools and Gonzaga.
So what happens below this? Does another level get created? Is it a level that is based on money, TV markets, school size, or all of them? Do SMU and TCU preclude UNT from being in this level of play again? If they cannot, do we finally get to be in a situation that is full of regional schools that we have always wanted to be aligned with in a conference? If they do, should we fold it up like so many have wanted in Denton for so long?
That's what I am most interested to see what this future holds for our athletic teams. Let's face it. If we had the support that a school of our size should have had all of these years, then we don't deal with any of these issues. But we have not had that, as the strong majority just flat out doesn't care about our teams at all.
If Chandler and Chad wanted to be a package deal why didn't that happen months ago? He might want to be in Denton more than he wanted Take Your Son to Work Day in San Marcos.
