I laughed out loud. Poor, poor WAC.

Is FBS saturated with teams?
If the NCAA would enforce the 15,000 attendance requirement FBS would clear out quite a bit.

Coach deserves a whole lot more for doing it.
I don't see a way to give Coach a +1.
-
Awesome!
ColoradoEagle deserves some +1's for posting this.

Mean Green Stadium - I love it! I wonder if when we get a sponsor it will be something like "Dr. Pepper's Mean Green Stadium" or "Frenchy's Mean Green Stadium". I would love that.

UNCC is a founding member of the Sunbelt Conference. Fact.
Also...I smell rematch coming! Real Mean Green beats Not-Real Mean Green
Was this player's name Cedric Cornbread Maxwell? WTH??
I didn't need to see the guy taking a shower.

Classy post in the comments from Slinker as well. Jalie plus Tina on board equals good news to me.
In the video it sounds like Aston talked with Slinker on the phone after being hired.

I wish they didn't have a microphone that covered up her face but I loved he comments about her first view of the new football stadium. I replayed that part three times.
She doesn't have the gift of the gab that McCarney has but I love the hire.

What's with the close ups of her boobs? Oh, wait ... did I just type that out loud?
-
She's coming to you. No longer listed among staff on our website and cancelled her 49er twitter page. Like Karen, her heart never left Texas.
Texas will do that to you. I haven't lived in Texas in almost a decade but it's still home.

I usually know everything and say even more, but I need some clarity.
Coach has a contract currently in force. She quits -- isn't fired. Contract contains a $100,000 buyout. This is reported in news stories without explanation, as if everyone knows what that means.
Confusion ensues. Who pays whom $100,000?
UNC-Charlotte receives the money. I think the coach has to pay it but usually the school hiring the coach pays it for them ... I think.

i don't disagree with nader. athletes generally only help the country with entertainment value, whereas music, merit scholarships lead to other occupations which actually help out the community, be it teachers, researchers, etc. i would hate to see this happen, but it makes a bit of sense.
it's not just about kids getting an education, it's about kids helping out the community and making it better.
You're kidding, right? The vast majority of college athletes on scholorships go on to earn college degrees and excell in many different professions ...including teachers, researchers, etc (have you not seen the NCAA commercials about this?
). When I was growing up my coaches in middle school and high school had a huge impact upon my life. I wouldn't who I am today without them. Where did they get their education to become coaches and teachers? Oh, yeah! College! Many of them attend college on athletic scholarships! I agree with the poster above who said if you want to get rid of athletic scholarships you need to get rid of many other scholarships as well.

Will any of this be lived streamed for those of us out of state?

Gotta agree with Keith7 - this is not high school.
and the male/female character is not particularly relevant to the tradition of a homecoming court
I agree with your first comment. If it disappeared I wouldn't notice because I don't notice it now.
However, your second comment made me laugh. Male/female character IS very relevant to the tradition of homecoming court. The tradition is a King and a Queen ... male and female. That's the tradition.

Very cool! Great catch!
-
Do you think people would notice if we did?
I'll assume you normally sit on the alumni side and never turn around.
Now that I re-read what I typed it does sound stupid. I meant to say we should do it in the new stadium. I think I was trying to combine three different thoughts into that one sentence.
-
There's a lot of this that is directly outside anyone's control but there's a lot that can be done. I love the idea of a plaque to honor Abner Haynes' accomplishments. Perhaps we need to be like other schools and have our conference championships posted boldly inside the stadium (all of them, not just the four from last decade). UNT football has a proud history of success and that should be promoted. This has to come start with the administration.
I've always felt that UNT fans seem to always be negative about sports and ignore all the great things that have happened. A lot of that comes from ignorance. Promoting the history of our athletic teams is a big part of changing the culture.

Our awesome AD again.
During the selling of the club level seats, we asked numerous times how the seating would be done. I have been a MGC member for a long time and have plenty of points to go around, but I wanted to bring on some new people who want to sit with us. They said it isn't a problem, just pick a "key" person and they will situate people around that "key" if you have multple families that want to bundle together.
Now that the AD has my family and friend's money, they change direction and seating is solely based on seniority and the new people either have to sit by themselves (money is spent), force me to pick in a lower teired day and maybe not even be able to select to get my three seperate new families to sit together, or ... just accept that the AD's word is about worthless and stop donating in the future.
I don't think anyone here can help you with this. I'd give Rick a call and find out from him what the exact situation is.

So we get two off weeks and they are both in November! That's nine consecutive weeks with no break ... rough.
-
If you get a chance we should send Bill Jones and TXA21 a note about how much we enjoyed it to ecourage them to do it again.

I have heard that we might be opening on the road at FIU to open the season on Thursday September 1st and it will be broadcasted on one of the ESPN family of networks.
I like it!

Good article but nothing really new except some comments from McCarney on the family issue he had at ISU. I still believe we made an outstanding hire.
