While at UT-Arlington, Smatresk was in the thick of efforts to parlay the research and resources of the state’s universities into economic development advances. He served for five years as director of Texas Science Careers Consortium and served o the boards of the Arlington Technology Incubator and the UTA Nanotechnology Research & Education Center.

He decamped from UTA in 2004 to become vice chancellor for academic affairs for the University of Hawaii at Manoa, that system’s flagship institution. In 2007, he became executive vice president and provost at Nevada-Los Vegas before ascending to its presidency two years later.

UNT posted a preliminary enrollment of 36,185 undergraduate and graduates this fall, putting it behind only the Texas A&M (53,330), UT-Austin (52,076) and the University of Houston (39,498) in terms of student population, according to the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board. UTA had 33,337 students this fall, placing it sixth behind Texas State University (35,568).

      UTRGV Leaves WAC for Southland

      I grew up in Edinburg back when Abe Lemons was their basketball coach. Their finances are more stable now than back when they "withdrew" from the Belt.

      Best BBQ in each Texas college football town

      Texas Monthly ranked Truth #3 in Texas in 2021. Of course this is all subjective, but Truth is definitely one of the top spots in Houston. Personally, it's my favorite. Pinkerton's and Pit Room are also very good.

      Will we see changes coming from inside UNT?

      Short of us going 26-1 and making the playoff the next couple of years or getting our version of T Boone....it's the only hope our football program has to survive

      I've said this exact thing for years. Those NFL-lite and NBA-lite schools need to separate completely. Move on to their New Minor League setup. And let the rest of us compete against peers in a structure that makes sense, from a cost standpoint. I would love to have UNT in a league that has the current AAC, MWC, CUSA, MAC, and SBC schools, as well as the former power programs that get left behind, like Washington State and Oregon State have already experienced.

      either way....it seems that there is no longer going to be a middle ground. And UNT and it's alumni need to decide which way they're going to go. Either go all in....or drop. We can't just sit and stay afloat....unless there is some sort of official break. That seems to be our only hope. Let the top 40 schools form their own thing and then the rest of us go regional. That's really our only option and if that doesn't happen then it's time to decide if throwing any money toward "big time" football is worth it. I challenge anyone to come up with a justification for it. Basketball is still there for the taking and much less expensive to operate.
