There's also some interesting data on where that cash comes from. I don't know how accurate they are - they mostly look good but that NT figure looks crazy low to me.

14th out of 227 in that category. Most of the SB is hovering around 50%.

This just further proves CUSA is full of crap. UNT has the lowest revenue of all the programs and they were invited. What a joke.

Im glad to be getting rid of UNT. They have been holding us back for years. Yes their new stadium is NICE but winning seasons would be better. UNT won 5 games this year in football and that was a HUGE improvement for them.

Getting Texas State will be much better in my opinion.

If Troy continues to spiral out of control like UNT did then I'll humble myself and accept our new place, but one bad season due to massive losses on the offense side of the ball (our bread and butter) does not mean we are through. I expect Troy to recover and assume our usual place as head of the Sun Belt Conference in football. We don't know how to do anything else.

edit: I can't wait for my Trojans to send UNT on its way to C-USA with one last beatdown bye bye from the Sun Belt.

I agree. I believe Troy will be better next season, but there is no way you will role into Apogee and get an easy win. Troy will have a fight on their hands, and they probably won't win it.

Has UNT ever finished better than .500 as an FBS program?
