Looks fantastic!! Such an important, visible sign that comes the year after a 78 million dollar stadium is completed...amazing!

Good to hear. I wish those "should"s were "will"s, but I understand there are no definites in life and college football.

Keeping all fingers and toes crossed that it is ready for the first home game. I have heard conflicting views of that possibility for several months now and some quite recently from several different people, but no one has said that there is "no way" the bridge will be complete in time...each and every one said they get "conflicting" reports based on certain construction issues...all of which UNT has absolutely ZERO control over...so, still keeping my fingers crossed and hoping for the best.
One way or the other...it will open and it will open this season. So, all good. Hopefully the opening will be cause for great celebration...and increased attendance as one less excuse for not attending will be washed away. Excellent.

I hate to be a stickler........................BUT can we please get one, unified, consistent mascot logo thingy. I LOVE that eagle head. If you are trying to build a brand you don't have rival logos. just saying. The bridge looks super awesome, and i cant wait for it to be done!! It is a true sign that you are entering "Eagle country"/ "The Mean Green Nation". Pick one.

That's one long a** bridge. I guess I didn't realize how long it was going to be until I looked at the pictures. Looks good. I too hope it's ready in time.

Though I like SOW and hope it remains forever to represent North Texas, we should probably make sure it sticks for at least a decade before we immortalize it in concreate. Until then, I'll take the artist's eagle over a blank wall. I love the idea of text on the bridge itself.I hat to be a stickler........................BUT can we please get one, unified, consistent mascot logo thingy. I LOVE that eagle head.

I agree about the artist's eagle on the bridge. Remember, I haven't been around long enough to know the logo life cycle. However, we do need to find something and stick to it for branding purposes. I think the SOW is here to stay.Though I like SOW and hope it remains forever to represent North Texas, we should probably make sure it sticks for at least a decade before we immortalize it in concreate.

We need a documented history of logos similar to the Helmet Project's history of helmets. Maybe I'll take that as a research project.I agree about the artist's eagle on the bridge.

Stupid question, but I've never been able to figure this out. I know what the SOW is, but what the freak does SOW stand for?
Let's unite as one. We are North Texas, Go Mean Green.
