    The Dan McCarney Method

    So then I should be ecstatic that UNT has a pretty established OC that DMac made Co-HC with full control of the O to keep him from trying to grab a HC job?

    Best thing is that UNT has one of the best Frosh kickers I have ever seen last year.. Big time accurate line.. Got 3 more year of him and more importantly it is one of the few potions UNT has been able to consistently find... Well that and RB...

    Coach DMac on Rivals.com homepage

    Yeah... I know.. This year will just as good and just as deep.. It is way early in the evaluation cycle and there are already 80 3*'s, 12 4*s and 2 5*s in the DFW recruiting area. There is a major reason why most of the Big 12 schools have one of their top recruiters assigned to DFW. Last year...

    Well.. Ill say this. UNT already has 2 signees, has convinced a Freshman former 4* OL from the Univ of Ark to transfer in and redshirt and most importantly, picked up/ had walkon a 2* and a 3* that graduated from the Denton area that went the JUCO/small college route instead. What has always...

    Big 12 Revenue Sharing at 76%

    Poor Nebraska... I never understood why Nebraska always seemed so at odds with everything that ever involved Texas. It seemed like from the very beginning that anything the Texas schools proposed Nebraska took afront to and claimed that the other schools were out to get them... You guys know...

    Big 12 Revenue Sharing at 76%

    Look at that... Get rid of Nebraska and all of a sudden the Texas schools decide to play nice. I am starting to believe the problems with all of this was never really UT but instead with Nebraska.

    #85 Iowa State

TCU BSU BYU Utah Airforce (maybe) Nevada (maybe) Hawaii (maybe) Troy (maybe) UCF (maybe) Navy (maybe) SDSU (maybe) SMU (stretch) FIU (stretch) MTSU (stretch) Miami (OH) (stretch) UH (stretch) Tulsa (stretch) ECU (stretch) NIU...

    aTm vs. UT..

    If your daughter is set on goingot college in Texas... 1. Keep her out of TT.. Rivals Bowling Green as the top STD schools in the nation. Not a lot to do out there but party....Need I say more? 2. SFA has the same problems as Tech, see point 1. 3. Depending on what she wants to do and what...

    big 12-2 football recruiting

    I live 30 minutes from TCU, both of my parents grew up 10 minutes from TCU off of Berry. My wife teaches at a 5A HS in DFW and I am related to several other longterm teachers throughout major DFW schools districts. Lets just say that I am very well versed in both the college and HS student...

    big 12-2 football recruiting

    You would be surprised. TCU is not even in the top 5 as far as college merchandising in DFW and is looked down upon for their academics by most of the state. TCU is not really a "top" destiantion for most premier kids in Texas, even with the move to the BE. When they where a non-AQ they had the...

    big 12-2 football recruiting

    The problem with A&M is that they have15 guys signed and most are the caliber of what they signed last year. Instead of trying to lock up elite guys early they are getting the mid tier guys that they could get latter in the year... I wonder how much of this is a by product of Baylor and UH...

    Big XII TV Negotiations

    Unlikely to see UK bail to any league that does not let them keep their third tier rights. Kansas basketball is worth 6M per year to them...' What I found interesting in all of this is that most of the Pac-12 articles are implying that the P12N may be a nonstarter at worst and fall WAY short of...

    Big XII TV Negotiations

    Here is a nice littel write up about where the Pac-12 negotiations are.. The most intersting thing is that noone is actually sure that the PAC12N is viable right now and the Pac-12 are in a exclusive bargaining window with FOX.. Note the ACC 155M valuation includes 30M from Raycom for...

    McCarney's first recruiting class.

    Can't really hate on the class when he kept one guy that was on board from the previous coached recruits and started late and still got the same comparative class as UNT has gotten in the past. Next year's class will really tell it all for McCarney. This year there was 103 3*'s alone within 100...

    McCarney's first recruiting class.

    Canales will be calling 100% of the plays and doing most of not all the scheming. One of the stipulations of Canales staying at UNt to OC instead of leaving to either go try be a HC elsewhere or moving up the OC ladder. If McCarney sticks to meddling with the defense and lets his coordinators...

    Official: McCarney accepts North Texas Job

    Man... all I wanted to do was give you guys a heads up not reignite a holy war... Be happy the guy has a HC gig and move on. Regardless how you view the man he is still the ISU all-time leader in wins, bowl appearances and bowl game victories. For bad or good his name is in the ISU record...
