First thing I thought of when I saw that article

[Steve1981]

Really do not know the rationale for waiting until the scheduling is complete, before releasing it. Have to wonder if it's holding up our scheduling release, as we normal release them as soon as the ink is dry.

Guessing your 2018 schedule will be release in a month. We had a facebook video with our AD Ryan Bamford. He mention this in 2018 will have one or two changes with one being not have three away games in a row. Also said that 2019 will be completed soon with one or two openings left.

What are you guys hearing.

The scheduling is at the very beginning.

[Sly Fox]

We are hearing very little. Those who know seem to be holding the line of not leaking anything prematurely. I have heard that 2018 is nearly completed and 2019 is coming along very nicely.

[Steve1981]

Good to hear and very similar to what we are hearing regarding the the time of schedule release for 2018 and 2019 being completed very soon. We both mention/thought on the cnsbbs board, it's could be a very practical matter in the negotiations with teams that things are being kept quiet until completed.

[Sly Fox]

In my brief interaction with our new AD, he strikes me as intuitive and strategic.

[JK37]

One reason they wait is to have contracts signed. Many fans book travel immediately upon schedule's release.

My sources tell me that we scheduled a YUGE against Trump University.

My sources tell me that we scheduled a YUGE against Trump University.

Their defense is like it doesn't even exist. Should be an easy win.

I hear the wide receivers have great hands, though. HUGE hands, even.

[BJWilliams]

Really...I mean call me a buzzkill if you want but Trump jokes in the football forum?

[thepostman]

You're a buzzkill.

[Purple Haize]

Sweet! I have family in the Dallas suburbs so I might make that away trip too!

Winnable!

[SumItUp]

Road trip!

Wasn't Coach Gill an assistant coach at North Texas years ago? I drove through there on my way to El Paso once. It's quite the haul from Lynchburg!

[LUGrad2000]

Well there is the first of 3 FBS home games for 2018. Not the most high profile opponent, but it's a home and home and we should be competitive. Conference USA.

He actually graduated from North Texas several years after leaving Nebraska to play in the CFL and then minor league baseball. After getting his B.A. he was a graduate assistant with the Mean Green for a year.

Sorry, didn't intend to make it sound like that. I will be happy with any FBS home and home.

Paging Bob Sturm. Get that guy to the game.

[Sly Fox]

Keep in mind that we were supposed to play the Mean Green this past fall before some moving and shaking left us at SMU instead. Yes, Coach Gill has connections in Denton. I am thrilled to have any games scheduled in Texas even if it still four years away.
