Saturday's football game between No. 3 LSU and North Texas is still scheduled as of now for 6 p.m. at Tiger Stadium.

North Texas Senior Associate Athletic Director Eric Capper said the North Texas athletic department has been in constant contact with LSU.

Capper said the Mean Green are scheduled to fly into Baton Rouge on Friday afternoon, but that could change depending on the aftermath of Hurricane Isaac.

If the game were to be moved, Capper said LSU would be the side to initiate rescheduling discussions.

"Any talks as far as canceling or rescheduling the game are premature at this point until we know exactly what's happening or the extent of the storm's impact," Capper said. "As soon as LSU feels that step is warranted, we'll cooperate with them and work something out. Both sides are in communication with each other, but we're planning to play right now."

The Tigers held practice today, but Les Miles' radio show has been pushed back from Tuesday night to Thursday at 7 p.m. due to Hurricane Isaac.

The LSU volleyball team has moved this weekend's Tiger Classic tournament from the PMAC to Rice University in Houston because of preparations for Hurricane Isaac.

      I HAVE to assume that his offer got pulled and became illegitimate. It looks awkward having our logo next to those others. I either thought he was just stringing along the other schools to create BS hype for himself OR our offer was no longer good and he was trying to add legitimacy to himself with our logo up there on his graphic. Either way, see ya.

      That's the attitude of someone resigned to defeat. UNT is in a better location and I'm certain has deeper pockets than UTSA. You don't see UTSA using excuses of why they can't be successful despite some pretty clear limitations. Allowing the past to determine your future is silly to me. Find the right mix of people who capitalize on the strengths and mitigate the weaknesses. UTSA did it. Don't tell me UNT can't.

      Please understand that our geographic location has never changed. Also understand that our recruiting has always lagged, even behind a few schools you mention. A lot of our facilities have been better or on par to our peers for over a decade. And there has not been a net positive. We spent millions of dollars in a pretty nice IPF. What has that gotten us from a recruiting or performance standpoint? Now, add in the portal and NIL. Psh. I love your optimism for us. It's weird. it's not really warranted, but I like it.

      The only thing that is constant is change. I can understand yearning for the days of yesteryear but why not take advantage of the current system? Access to the playoff is there. Proximity to quality recruiting and local transfers via the portal is there. The programs that should be terrified are UTEP, LA Tech, Ark State, Wyoming, etc. where you are geographically isolated and objectively poor. UNT is neither of those things at the G5 level.
