I'll also add that the band's director, Alan Baylock, is a Pittsburg native and grew up watching Joe destroy offenses. He later got his Master's at UNT in the early 90s. Recording this video today was really special for him. ----- While I have ya'll here, the band released its annual album today. Lab 2018 | The Rhythm of the Road is available on all major streaming services, iTunes, Amazon, GooglePlay, and our Online Store. It has been submitted into six different NARAS categories for the 61st Grammys. Give it a listen or two to hear the music our students and faculty are writing and recording these days! https://store.music.unt.edu/lab-2018

50 year anniversary only. Retired.

I think the next realistic level for us would be being on par with University of Houston. Basically a P5 level school in a G5 conference. Consistent winning records, bowl games, big recruits, solid TV for games, attendance around 35K-42K, periodic moments of being ranked, big wins over highly ranked opponents, NY6 game, etc.. You get the point.

they start off with ODU-VaTech upset and at 2’35” transition to UNT https://pca.st/episode/7cd3ebff-70e8-45eb-bf9e-60a75280073c

Going to see Kevin tomorrow night in San Marcos.

This is literally where our AD’s mindset was in March of 1997: In order to increase merchandising sales add another school’s colors(Burnt-Orange and Blue) to our nationally licensed branding and logos. Rick

Disagree completely. We’re a school with many GREAT traditions. This of course being my personal fav.. Rick

Trust me... there are easier drives in C-USA than in the WAC/MW. 8 hours east and your in Jackson, Miss. 8 hours west and you are in.....Texas. UNT is 4-0 for the first time in forever. Put about 5 years of those together along 5 years of C-USA Championships 5 bowl wins before worrying about moving "up". I don't see an 'up' unless you move into the SEC or become No.11 in the Big 12.

I want to see us take care of LaTech this week. One week at a time.

Technically, we are in second place, since Southern Miss has won a conference game already, and 1-0 is better than 0-0

My wife is an A&M grad in grad school at UNT. She has another A&M grad friend also in grad school at UNT. That A&M grad is going to her first UNT football game this weekend with a group of her friends. This is fantastic on a couple fronts. 1) Grad students attend much less than undergrad. 2) We’re decent enough and making enough noise that an Aggie and her Aggie friends are going out of their way to attend a UNT football game

The more North Texas wins the more people will root for this team. Who doesn’t like an underdog?!

“Home openers sell themselves”

So....let me get this straight...Best Start in 50+ years...coming off first Home undefeated Season...Ever?!?.... One of the most entertaining offenses in recent memory to watch....in a great new facility....against a top Conference rival that can sling the ball around themselves...loudmouth Cajun Fans to mess with...AND its Mean Joe day w/cool throwbacks.... I dont CARE about fans that let 20% chance of rain keep them away from this Saturday Night! Crowd will be Electric with or without Sellout.....GO MEAN GREEN!!!!!

This is the first time I have ever seen any cross marketing with music school! Wish we would see more!

OMG!!!!

Kinda my thoughts. I think it only makes sense because of the statue unveiling. It's an extra tribute provided Joe was good with it. Not sure I'd like an annual tradition. Although I'd get to like anything Joe wanted. LOL.

What is the most amazing thing to me is a proactive athletic department that is busting their asses to get us exposure and build the momentum of a 4-0 start. It wasn't that long ago that certain people in the department would say, we don't need to promote anything.

Coach Littrell wants you to get your ass to the stadium

And Twitter for the non-facebook types.

OMG!!!......People with an imagination and a marketing mindset work for us now. They really work for us now. —‘checks pulse, pinches self to make sure this isn’t another cruel dream’.... Rick

Let's note: he has been right 4 games in a row, including Arkansas.

Correct. He looked good against Rice (178 yards), but that was Rice. He then ran for 50 yards against FAU and 19 yards against Troy.

Retired Numbers are just that...retired. Never to be worn again, in honor of the great individuals who wore those numbers. In this one exceptional, once in a lifetime situation, with that great individual being present and on a day when he is being further honored, I can see it being done. JMHO.

well, in futbol, they list the home team first....so some futbol fan made this site...just the wrong football fan

ok...this is nit-pickng....But, usually (at least it's he way I've always thought...) the home team is listed last... Am I wrong on this? Because they dont actually show the city the game is located in.... If I'm incorrect, I'll take the post down.. Just dont want the casual fan to google the schedule and think we're out of town, when we're actually not... Thoughts?

North Texas has four retired numbers. Those are #28 Abner Haynes, #33 Ray Renfro, #55 Richard Gill and #75 Joe Greene. I like what we are doing as a one time promotion, but would also like to see the department recognize these other players/numbers. I fully understand that Joe Greene put us on the map and is the greatest DT of all-time and in the Hall of Fame, but Mr. Haynes, for example, broke the color barrier and was treated terribly by opposing teams, along with Leon King. I love what Mr. Greene and his family have meant to North Texas, but I would like to see the following done at some time in the near future. I would love to see a statue of Mr. Haynes and Mr. King together. Sure, Abner Haynes was the focal point because of the success he realized at North Texas and with the Kansas City Chiefs, but these two men sacrificed and suffered greatly through breaking the color barrier in the late 50's. I feel that their story should be put out there for all to read and a statue honoring them should be placed outside of Apogee.

Story time: My wife went to Syracuse and they have a sacred number (44) that has been retired across all sports. It was retired after two other players wore it. It was Ernie Davis' number, who was the first African-American player to win the Heisman Trophy in 1961. All that being said, Joe Greene's number could have the same significance to our university as 44 for Syracuse. It'd be awesome to see it treated the same way at UNT. For reference: https://cuse.com/sports/2006/1/18/fb44bios.aspx?path=football

I spit on the RV years too.

Yeah I'm aware of the garage sale and while that is definitely an option I would just think that by now we the fans would be able to purchase a quality replica made by Nike. I don't understand why that is not available year round for both people to purchase in person and online.

Believe me, there are plenty of SMU people trying to derail this train. UNT's success is a disaster for them.

Don’t they have the largest sports radio audience in the country? This is really, really good pub

I've posted this several times that we need to clean up the commercial before showing it again at the stadium. The audio is embarrassing (and was worse in Fouts.) This is awesome and love the split screen too. If they don't play this version at the game, I'm gonna' put my foot up somebody's a$$!!! Also, this from a couple of years ago: https://people.com/sports/mean-joe-greene-reunites-with-kid-from-hey-kid-catch-coca-cola-super-bowl-ad/

I’m going to prepare to tailgate this week, because I know that any given week another tailgater can beat me. I’m going to make sure that I’m in my seat and I’m prepared for all three phases of beer drinking, nacho eatin’ and Mean Green screaming. I will easily be the most excited to watch the mean Green this weekend. At the end of the day, I’m going to Hooter’s to celebrate, and when the wings come out I’m gonna dominate their ass!

I just love that finally the music is finally clear...The sound quality of that commercial has decomposed over the years....Well done One O'Clockers!

Has there ever been a more UNT thing than that? So awesome

I don’t know if I can handle that much University of North Texas at once. Fantastic work, as usual, 1 O’Clock!!

What is Hype? Tell me, tell me, if you think you know.

I just got called into HR for sexually assaulting my work monitors. I regret nothing.

Well it certainly isn't the SEC. They clearly can't provide the competition we need.
