North Texas Boosters Rally to Retain Coach Morris, Aiming to Outbid ArkansasIn a surprising turn of events, North Texas boosters are actively working to keep head coach Eric Morris, aiming to outbid Arkansas and other programs. After meeting with influential boosters, including real estate mogul Rex Glendenning, UNT athletics director Jared Mosley discussed strategies to significantly increase Morriss compensation package. The goal is to make him the highest-paid public university coach in the American Athletic Conference, potentially tripling his current salary. This includes substantial improvements to assistant coach salaries, revenue sharing, and Name, Image, and Likeness funds. The boosters believe this competitive package will make it difficult for Morris to leave Denton for any program other than a perennial top fifteen or twenty team.The Daily News Now! — Every city.
