  1. I never understood him leaving and now I can’t root for him.
  2. Not mad really. Was too lazy to find the eye roll 🙄
  3. Taylor Robinson and Alvin Kenworty. Nick Harvey did his with ATM 😠
  4. I know, I know. It’s just it’s North Texas, man. We’re cursed!
  5. Especially a black and white hat that was designed to be for any team. Hard pass
  6. I would like our coaches contracts to have lower base salaries and higher bonuses for real achievements.
  7. I think Darden’s stock will take a hit with these pro day numbers. I feel like he needed some lighting times
  8. I feel like that is the entire DFW sports fandom, with the notable exception of the Cowboys. Every stadium and arena in the Metroplex is half empty if the team is struggling. NT probably has it worse than others due to our location, traditional student apathy, and last 30 years of sports history but still not a completely unique situation.
  9. Also picked up Air Force and Army offers.
  10. Some research into the possibilities if we make a run in the tournament (not to get too ahead of ourselves). But we can already see how much attention the Purdue win has garnered. https://www.highereddive.com/news/how-march-madness-success-boosted-admissions-for-5-universities/234331/
  11. This is what all those surprised by the Purdue win in the media are missing. I was waiting for the analyst in the CBS sports video posted elsewhere to mention that we had slugged it out against four top teams and taking those lumps - plus the CUSA tournament - had hardened this team and made them ready for Purdue.
  12. Glad you posted this. One thing Rick really got right was putting Mean Green and North Texas out there front and center over the generic “Eagles.” I know the name predates him becoming AD of course but he made a deliberate decision to put Eagles aside and really get Mean Green recognized as our brand. It is paying off as we are a nickname favorite during this tournament and the first round win really solidified that.
  13. I would hardly call two disappointing seasons “in the toilet.” One and two wins seasons - and we have seen many of those around here - are easily a possibility and what I consider the toilet. Not excusing the 2019 season’s disappointing result (2020 for me was more just a happy to see some games situation for me) but we have seen a lot more 1-2 wins seasons than 9 wins seasons over the last 20 years. Still not happy with where we are at, but unlike the end years of Dickey and Mac and all the Dodge years, I actually have some confidence we can get back to the top of the conference in 1-2 years. The talent is there and SL won with a lot less talent before. Now if you had said “and the defense is still in the toilet,” I would have been on board. 😉
  14. Really enjoyed the insights from the Purdue fans. Come back any time.
