Yes, because basketball is what drives 90% of the country's athletics programs.

There are no division implications. You needed help. Help didn't call.

You are seriously slow.

If we win out and Rice loses to Tulsa we win the division. Easier said than done but that's beside the point.

Im willing to bet a top notch product like UConn basketball generates more money than a mediocre product like UNT football.

You can't count, can you?

No crap Sherlock. It's Connectcut. What the hell else is there? They couldn't even keep the Hartford Whalers, the one professional team in the state. It's a state that you stop to take a piss in and look at the pretty leaves when travelling between Boston and NYC.

I prefer to rent a stadium with honest funds than to fund a stadium with money stolen from students.

I'd rather know what the hell I'm talking about when I post on a message board.

the students voted on an athletics fee to help fund the stadium...it passed...apogee exists due to the students voting for it...

so something that happened in 2002 that didn't go into paying for apogee means that the university stole money from the students in order to build the new football stadium???

the students voted (2008) on the fees for the new stadium...it passed...some students loved it, some didn't...where is the theft from the students for building apogee?

Here's a little nut for your trail mix. The fees for athletics go to ALL of the athletics departments. We have several new venues that house other sports as well. You know, that whole Title IX compliance thing?

The student fee that was implemented in 2002 by illegal means was still in effect until 2008, when they passed the new athletic fee. By the time the vote for the new athletic fee took place, UNT officials were already designing the new stadium and finalizing the plans.

This thread is lame. nUTSAc will never be anything more than a poop stain in our undies. See you on Saturday. Hope you lose by a million.

Wish I had some KFC

If I remember correctly they already had enough funds to do the leg work in terms of preliminary designs and getting bids. Nothing was stolen. If the fee did not pass the 2nd time around, ground would have never been broken until it did.

of course they were finalizing plans...you want to be ready to go the minute a vote is in your favor...

as for the illegal means fee...i don't see how it has any relation to the stadium vote that the students approved...but, i'm not looking for anything negative, so maybe i'm missing something...

Tell me more about your time in the marines and how it helped you compensate.

Is that the best you got? I suggest that you go back to playing with your dolls

How do they look like a 13yo girl?

This really went downhill

[Rudy]

What did you expect. I think that we should up the wager. When we win, aside from a few "respectable" posters, they should be required to have their posts approved.

[UNTDoubleAlum]

Ugh, I really hope the entire UNT community doesn't hate the Marine Corps now cause of this guy. I was a Marine for six years.

In addition, I like comic books, video games, and not using my veteran status to troll sports forums....

[Rudy]

Semper Fi!

I personally cut military a break when I stop them, among the others I offer professional courtesy.

And I'm with you on salutes when out of uniform. Aside from vets who are wearing some sort of clothing which denotes military service when attending a either a military function or a function honoring military, hand over heart. Military and first responders in uniform, salute.
