Both Hart and Turner approved of the UNT addition. No upside for SMU to do that.

Why? Because SMU is so much "better"? How about an upside is a W in a conference game and now SMU figures out how to get Baylor or Texas Tech back on the non-conference schedule?

NTS brought only a few hundred to their most hated rival this year, it was stunning.

We shouldn't be sharing a conference with a community college. Hart has alot of explaining to do.

UNT beats Rice 30-24 in OT in a battle of future conference mates...that might just be more our level of competition (after watching Houston run past our guys to a 14-0 lead)

In both 2017 and 2019 there was more green in Ford than there was red and blue. ΓÇÿ21 was only a down year and not bringing the Green Brigade (that is much more impressive than y’all’s middle school looking band btw) was over COVID concerns. Don’t act like we don’t help boost yall a lot when it comes to attendance.

More like Dallas Team playing the north texas-plex community college. Denton may be included in the Nielsen tv north texas mkt but Denton is not part of what normal people consider the DFW metroplex (which most consider to be Dallas, Ft. Worth and the mid-cities)

Tell that to North TX. IR hearing its president referring to NT as the biggest school in the metroplex and I can see it coming as a marketing move.

Meh ... wouldn't read much in to those comments other than UNT officials making nice and saying Hart and Turner are nice guys. "We have a good relationship with them" is standard fare for press conferences - probably written for them by PR minions.
