  1. NMSU placed a recruiting billboard one block from the UTEP campus. UTEP responded on the backside of the same billboard Well Played Miners, Well Played.
  2. They are having the time of their life at North Texas. It's not going to be the same elsewhere regardless of how shiny the lure is that some other school casts.
  3. Grant gave them each their big break and they are incredibly successful here. I seriously doubt they're going to turn their backs on him and their teammates just to become anonymous one season journeymen at some other school.
  4. Good catch Coach Andy Mac. KyeRon Lindsay played one season at Georgia before deciding to enter the transfer portal to move closer to home. He chose Texas Tech and has signed there. While KyeRon will be eligible to begin practicing with the team right away, he will not be eligible to play with the team until the 2023-24 season. Now Texas Tech basketball is in 9th place in the Big 12, has a losing record against Division 1 competition, and their program is crumbling as their coach Mark Adams is suspended amid accusations of racism by him and his staff. https://247sports.com/Player/KyeRon-Lindsay-46117831/ Would KyeRon be able to terminate his signing with Texas Tech due to the scandle and pending rules violations at the school? If so, KyeRon has hundreds of high school classmates attending the University of North Texas certainly including many close friends, his local friends and family could attend all his games, and the North Texas Basketball Program is experiencing record success and has incredible stability with Coach Grant McCasland. It seems like it would be a perfect situation for him.
  5. And yes, it was us that lost because of it. This color switch does absolutely nothing to represent our university and we are the ones that are constantly snakebit due to it. Look, we're not going to automatically win EVERY game because we wear our school colors. Likewise, we are not automatically going to lose EVERY game because we wore some weird alternative color (black/gray/blue) uniforms. The question is why do it? It looks stupid to call yourself the Mean Green and then predominantly wear some color other than Green. It's shown that we usually lose big games in all sports when wearing alternative colors, and we often play down to the level of lesser teams, sometimes losing.
  6. The first building is complete at our new 100 acre Frisco Landing campus. I especially like the illuminated bell tower.
  7. I told you there is nothing to see here. Now go away. Jeez! .
  8. Thanks NT80 for posting this video. I bought all of those green blinkie beads for the Basketball team, the Cheer team, the Dance team, the Pep Band and distributed the rest to fans and Maniacs. This video was an absolute blast to watch.
  9. Where did you see any insinuation that I said WSU and OSU would join the AAC? They, along with the PACs other 2 new tagalongs, will have no other option than the MWC if they wish to stay together. And hopefully SMU is too proud to come crawling back to the AAC.
  10. After decades, The PAC died Friday, March 4, at 2:00PM The average $22 million per school is going to keep 8 of the 10 teams from signing the GOR. Oregon and Washington were demanding a disproportionate share and there was no way the other current members would agree. Washington, Oregon, Stanford, and California will be heading to the BIG 10. Arizona, Arizona State, Utah, and Colorado will be heading to the Big 12. On July 31, 2024 the PAC will officially cease to be a recognized NCAA conference. They will not have retained the "minimum 5 schools together for 3 years" to be eligible for auto qualifying for any NCAA championships. All PAC finances will be divided amongst the schools that originally earned them, including USC and UCLA.
  11. Thank you, and your cohorts, for the open invitation for all of us to participate freely and often on the PonyFans.com site.
  12. Can anybody name a county of a million or more anywhere in the United States that has not built an athletic facility for it's residents? Probably none other than Denton (I didn't find one). This is especially egregious considering that county's largest employer is the 28th largest university in the United States with all of it's students paying taxes. It's past time for the City of Denton and Denton County to step up.
  13. MeanGreenSports.com After tying for second place and obliterating her own program record for low 54-hole score, UNT graduate student Audrey Tan was named the Conference USA Golfer of the Week. The nod for Tan marks the ninth conference weekly award for North Texas in the last ten weeks the team has played, dating back to last season. It's the sixth for Tan in that stretch and the ninth of her decorated career.
  14. Nobody's signing that Grant Of Rights, and eight of the current ten PAC schools already have secured their plans to leave. They'll all be announcing their departures as soon as the GOR is declined. When all's done, the Mountain West will likely provide a home to PAC orphans Oregon State and Washington State, as well as tagalongs SDSU and SMU. Here's the Monty Show, a mouthpiece for Utah Utes fanatics.
  15. Wow, another great win for the Mean Green. Way To Go Ladies! (and coaches) I also wanted to say how nice it is that the whole softball team comes over to the stands at the culmination of each game, does their NORTH-TEXAS! NORTH-TEXAS! NORTH-TEXAS! cheer, sings our alma mater, and thanks the fans that come out to support them. They're very classy, and they represent the university so well.
  16. Wow! There are a lot of collegiate golf powers that our Mean Green beat in that tournament. USC, Oklahoma State, and Tulsa have all won NCAA Championships and they all take competition in this sport incredibly seriously. Donning their GREEN and WHITE, North Texas Women's Golf had one of their greatest tournaments ever. Way To Go MEAN GREEN! Absolutely Amazing!
  17. It's a fun place. I just recently discovered that a lot of fans have been going to the EastSide Beer Garden after just about every game. You really cant find anything cheaper than $3 beers anywhere else, and the atmosphere is a blast. They actually have a very wide selection of (over 80) beers from which to choose, and over 130 types of Bourbon/Whiskey.
  18. East Side is throwing a special event in their Beer Garden immediately after the UNT - WKU game to celebrate the Mean Green's most basketball wins in school history. Please come out and have a beer with other North Texas Basketball fans as we celebrate the team's success! Location: East Side - Beer Garden (940) 218-1401 Time: Immediately after game's end Happy Hour until 7:00 A selection of $3 beers all night Several of Denton's favorite food trucks will be on site with very reasonably priced meals and snacks. And of course...WEAR YOUR GREEN! Location Located one block East of the Downtown Denton Square on Oak St. Look for the big EastSide sign. 117 E. Oak St. Denton, Texas 76201 Click HERE for more information on EastSide and it's Beer Garden

  20. Looks like the Mountain West may soon be adding Oregon State, Washington State, SMU, and getting SDSU back.
  21. I doubt SMU will wind up in the WAC. It's more probable that they will end up in the Mountain West, but I guess the WAC may be possible, especially if they need to cancel football.
  22. SMU may wind up cancelling football alltogether if this Pac 12 deal doesn't work out for them. Very sad.
  23. All that, and he's a an incredibly nice guy. I'm proud to know Robb and am happy for all of his accomplishments. Brett, thank you for writing this story.
  24. Thank you for the illustrations on how to correctly build end zone facilities. I know an academic facility is important, but like a washer and dryer, you don't need to put it on the front porch to show you have one. Put the Academic Center where it belongs, and then put stadium seating where it belongs.
