[For those still in Seth’s corner.]

Really sounds like something from House of Cards. 

[Miami of Ohio vs North Texas at Frisco Football Classic Dec. 23 2:30PM CT]

Love the location, obviously. Is this Bowl even sponsored? 

Is this even a Bowl?  41 other games are called Bowl, this one is a football classic. Hard to be a classic when it’s never happened before. Sorry for the negativity. Happy to have another game but this just feels cheap. 
Does anyone know what the payout is?  Without a sponsor, I bet it’s not much. 

[TV and Kickoff Time/Date updates]

So we only have 1 game that is on broadcast tv? The rest of the games are on an app.  Not sure if you guys have seen the numbers for ESPN + or ESPN 3 viewership but they are terrible.  I’m sure Stadium has even worse viewership. 
 

[Albino Squirrel Mascot?]

I think it is embarrassing.   We are a program looking to build its reputation and standing among other schools and conferences.  This is what we roll out?  "oh look.....its Lucky the Albino Squirrel....

Every f'ing campus in the nation has squirrels.  We are the only ones paying for a costume and promoting it as a tradition.  As if we had any control over the albino squirrel population.....

Traditions usually have some human interaction passed down from generation to generation.  The squirrel is a rodent that just happens to live on your campus.

pathetic

 

[Would you take a NON LETHAL gunshot to the thigh in exchange for a UNT Football National Championship?]

Yes

[Possible Bowl Games Mega Thread]

This is the worst case scenario in my opinion. I was in the ABQ this past week. Trust me....there is nothing to do there. 

Playing on the 15th also means that Rico Bussey probably won’t be  healed enough to play.  

Why cant we seem to get a bowl that’s not on opening day of bowl season?  

They should call this the “Who Cares Bowl.”

[Bowl Eligible - but not celebrating......yet]

Yeah baby. As it should be. 

[This team deserved better]

These are the days that separate the dedicated from the delicate. 

Go Mean Green. 

[Would you wear UNT kicks?]

Yes please!  I have been looking for UNT kicks forever.

That was in the third I only missed 2 minutes of the game from inside the stadium. 

The last 1:07 was the most important part of the game.  If anyone left early, they missed one of the finest moments in Mean Green history.  In 27 years of following the Mean Green, I’ve never left a game early. Tonight it paid off.  I got to witness pure Mean Green magic. 

[City of Champions]

Woo Hoo!  DeSoto High School class of 1991.  Of course, in 1991 our only state champions were the marching band. My how things have changed. 

[Dallas Mayor pushing for SMU to B12]

F SMU.  Let them burn. 

[UNT Baseball: The Time Is Now]

You are 100% correct. NOW is the time. North  Texas needs baseball.  We have to move forward. Must be a top priority for next AD. 

[Littrell: "Home sweet home"]

UNT uses the Wildwood Inn for dignitaries and special guests. I bet he is staying in the Wildwood until he closes on a house. 

[I hope we get Meacham...]

I hope you're right. I really think Meachum is the right hire. I can't take anymore of the run first offense. We need someone who can convince Texas kids to come to Denton. We also need someone who can produce a draftable prospect at North Texas. Not having a player drafted in over 10 years really hurts us in recruiting. Good HS players want to go where they can get noticed by NFL scouts. 

[Attendance?]

Anyone get the official attendance number for tonight's game?

[Sweet UNT Hat]

2,000...thats not very many hats for a stadium that seats 42K.  Guess you have to get there pretty darn early to get one.

[Skip Johnson and UNT Baseball Update]

Please bring baseball to UNT. I would buy season tickets every year. My whole family wants a UNT baseball team.

[UNT's schedule is out... We will not rest]

I hate this way of thinking and our fanbase excels at it. We try to use our horrible past as a way to excuse our current failures. The AD promised the students, alumni and fans that 6 home games and quality home OOC opponents would be the standard once Apogee opened. In my opinion, that has been a complete lie through the first 5 seasons at Apogee.

AMEN. What are the big time opponents that have come to Apogee? We were told that Fouts was the reason we couldn't get Big Time programs to travel to Denton. So what is it now? Too small, too far, not enough money?

[UNT's schedule is out... We will not rest]

Anyone else notice that there is one month gap between our fourth home game against UTSA and our fifth (and final) home game against UTEP? There is also a large gap of 20 days between the Rice and Portland State games.

Not good for building momentum at home or energizing the fan base. I guess this frees up most of my weekends this fall.

I really cherish those games at Apogee each fall. This schedule makes me feel like I'm getting short-changed on season tickets.

I'm just disappointed. No worries. I've gotten used to the felling.

[UNT's schedule is out... We will not rest]

This sucks. I just don't understand why we can't get 6 home games a season. What is your fan base supposed to think? Don't tell me that SMU is the 6th home game. That's a poor excuse for bad schedule management.

[Where Was Boomer The Cannon?]

It's a different time. Apparently today's Talons don't like to be wet or cold.

[Where Was Boomer The Cannon?]

I'm pretty sure cannons were used during the rain while fighting wars in the past. Rain is no excuse to not have Boomer at the game. Wipe it down after the game and it will be fine.

[Wednesday night notes (UNT helmet hint?)]

How's this ?

I think Hell has official frozen over.

This is the helmet we should have been using for the last10 years.

[Duck Dyn and the Independence Bowl]

Willie went to Louisiana Monroe.
