If I recall, Mack started at UT and even played football for a short time for DKR. He finished up at UNT.
I’m glad we’re doing it the right way and for the right reasons with the right coach. Paying someone before he even gets here is crazy

I think he may have been one of 125-150 players on that last all-white 1969 UT national championship FB team. Then I think he moved over to UNT - most likely to see the possibility of some playing time. (He was born in early 1951 - a couple of weeks after me.)
If UH wins, the 9-1 odds will net me $9,000.00.

I think football gets something down the road once in the big12 on a new deal from him or Fertita.

After football hopefully other sports get NIL love.
Not a priority vs revenue sports but for B12 recruiting perspective = softball NIL at Tech is $10k per season.
Otherwise you get a not so hot wife and beans
He put down 500k already so i think he is
Mattress Mack Is golden!

I am all about NIL for basketball. Those guys have earned it…HOWEVER…should we not be able to get Jerseys with the players names on them now??? My kids want Sasser jerseys for Christmas VERY badly…

This is exactly what is needed to level the playing field. If Mr. Goesling continues his success, he will rival Justin Verlander as the city’s most valuable free agent.
I wonder who the next high profile name will be? We have some very loyal Cougars who have laid the NIL foundation.

Yep. Hopefully, unlike TAMU, we have better luck and our players stay bought.
