  1. Missouri would only join until they got picked up by someone else. I can definately see UNT in that new conference.
  2. Not one mean thing ... not two mean things ... not three mean things ... not four mean things ...
  3. Your description is the exact opposite of Fred Thompson.
  4. Fred Thompson is far from the Hollywood bunch. He's actually a pretty conservative Republican ... really more of a country boy from Tennessee. He was a Republican nominee for President in 2008. President Bush tapped him to lead Supreme Court Justices John Roberts and Samuel Alito through their congressional hearings.
  5. Fred Thompson, former Senator from Tennessee, movie/tv actor ... posted the following on Facebook: "A public university near Dallas opened an all-vegan cafeteria on campus. I think I may have just found the perfect location for my first "Fred's Steakhouse." Of course, some idiot made some uneducated comments about UNT so I felt the need to correct him.

  6. Coach Cristobal doesn't have the gift of the gab like McCarney does. He's not nearly entertaining in his press conference. He also has a little bit of Bob Stoops to his speech.
  7. Boise would kind of scare me. All they have to offer is winning football at this time. If that goes down then they offer absolutely nothing for us in a conference. I think they are working with a very slim margin. It's very hard to maintain a top ten program over the long haul and much, much, much harder to do it at a place like Boise. It wouldn't surprise me if five years from now they were fighting just to be in the top 20. I wouldn't be shocked if they were a .500 team. Maybe they can pull it off but the odds are against them.
  8. SMU won't be moving up to the Big 12 so we can stop that talk. I also think the Big 12 will add one team and continue on it's way. However, what happens if Texas and OU (taking OSU with them) leave for independence and/or the Pac-12? Then I think you could see a big reorganizing of the non-BCS conferences. Perhaps the remainder of the Big 12 grab some western CUSA teams and some eastern MWC teams ... and maybe NT ... to form a new conference. New Conference Iowa State Kansas Kansas State Missouri Air Force Colorado State Baylor Texas Tech Houston SMU North Texas Tulsa I'd love to replace Tulsa with Oklahoma State if they split from OU - heck, I'd replace Tulsa with just about any other school. I think this would immediately become the best non BCS conference - assuming it would lose it's BCS ranking. This is a conference I would love to follow even if it didn't include UNT. Disclaimer: I spent about 10 minutes on this so forgive me if I've missed something obvious. Like I said, I don't think this will happen but it would be great for UNT if it did.
  9. Cool! My old brain still retains something. They are open all day long so we always headed there in the evenings.
  10. There's also a second location on ... Sunset? ... near 380 and Carroll (I think that's right ... years since I've been in Denton).
  11. Is that 6' correct? I thought they were both closer to 5'9" which would be smaller.
  12. Who's the SMU lover who's giving out the -1's? Go away!
  13. The negative is that we're waiting on money from government. Hopefully that won't hold things ups.
  14. Um ... good luck with that. Big 12 would have to be pretty desperate to take SMU.
  15. So do they have a place to keep Boomer at the new stadium?
  16. Nothing like hearing the UNT fight song first thing in the morning. Awesome!
  17. Technically they won the '83 championship before Jimmy arrived. However, before the 80's they were close to dropping football. I'm not bashing Miami. They had an amazing run with some amazing players and teams. However, I wouldn't be surprised if they never recaptured that old magic.
  18. Ten conference titles? UNT has 24 conference titles. Miami was an iconic program but they haven't been relevant on the field in several years. Now they are relevant off the field but not in a good way.
  19. They need to stop hiring Hellen Keller to design uniforms.
  20. So how do they get away with having an $18k stadium? Isn't there a minimum 30k stadium required?
  21. That bridge should be another great opportunity to market the school. Have a design that looks good and fits in with the Athletic Village. Have "University of North Texas" on it and I'm sure you could find a sponsor to put on it as well. If done right it could be a very cool looking structure.
  22. Do we know exactly where it will be? Will it be closer to the North Texas Blvd bridge or closer to the stadium?
