Sadly the final score was the route we saw from the very beginning.

Just to help put this one in perspective, this 47 point loss eclipsed our previous all-time worst 43 point loss that at least came at the hands of the #5 ranked team in the country...this UCF team hasn't even sniffed a top 25 ranking this season.

But what is Dixon doing shooting a 3 from 10 feet behind the line? Fall is a big dude, but he's not forcing shooters out THAT far.


Nope, this doesn't just "happen" to a program worth a salt. We don't exactly have the greatest basketball history and yet this has NEVER happened before. I've been very worried that Mr. Miller was not going to be quite ready to pull the plug, but after this I'm feeling much more confident. And my theory that Jank is doing all of this on purpose to get his money and go home without having to even pretend to work anymore continues to hold water...

Given how close they played at Moody, I guess that means there is still some home court advantage left.

But this game is reminiscent of the Boise State game that sealed Dement's fate. I don't think it will change the result, but it very well could make it a more intense decision for Hart, Miller and whoever else is involved in the process.


There is no way Jank survives this. We will literally lose our entire fanbase if he is kept. The ONLY way to keep the season ticket holders on board after making them "pony up" last year is to show them we are serious about winning. No way, I mean, no way Jank is on the bench next year.

That was the June Jones North Texas moment. Game over.

So if we follow the UCF debacle by getting blown out at home by Cincy, Jank should resign immediately?

Should he?

Yeah.


Will he?

Hell no. He'll put on his stinky Kansas sweats and hit the gym.

Jank is going nowhere, he'll be back for at least one more year. We are not Kansas, despite what the AD tells us, or what Jank is wearing!

If that is the case then they should cancel all of the games next year and save on electicity etc. Moody will be empty and it will take many years for any of the fans to return.
If the school and the 'big donors' don't give a crap then why should the alums, fans, Dallas fans et al bother to come watch a team that stinks up the arena and whose coach cares less about recruiting and being a complete coach??

This must please RGT greatly as it just adds another reason to shut down all of our sports programs.
