Was going to suggest the same thing. This would at least allow for movement up or down and not lock in place forever the current state of college football. Things change and the system should allow for it. It also would probably necessitate the elimination of the current conference structure.
College fb would explode in popularity if they did this. Every game would have meaning.

Need to make things more exciting at the Pit and part of this is on the folks that are actually there. The only time there is any crowd noise is in the last two minutes of a close game or maybe during a comeback. People need to be yelling their asses off every time the other team has the ball, from the opening tip-off. Students try, but get no help from the rest of the crowd. If that place was rockin', I think more students would go.

From my experience going to NDSU games at Toyota.
You can take up as much space as you want in the parking lot. If you need six parking spaces for your awnings or whatever, no problem. Website says gates open 4 hours before kickoff, but NDSU fans go in way earlier than that...5:30am for an 11am game.
I'm planning to get there at 10a.

maybe I misread the comment but we had tickets in the in three different price levels at the ticket office to start. I think 25, 55 and 65?
I ordered mine from the ticket office on Tuesday evening and only $55 ones were available. I did it online. Maybe it was different if you called.

UNT ticket office email says students will get discounted ticket offer. Just curious if anyone has seen any communications to students and how much students will have to pay.

Surprised that the ticket office still doesn't have tickets available. Not sure where the hold up is. Have to think UNT ticket office is waiting on the go-ahead from bowl officials, ESPN, Toyota stadium or whoever.

The only way Seth is gone after this season is if Wren already promised the job to someone else 4 or 5 weeks ago.

Where were you thinking the expansion was going to take place? There's a little room between the IPF and AC, but not really much to do anything.
They're not going to move into the parking lot...
The idea is to have an overlook into the stadium from the AC (which necessitates the removal of the big scoreboard, and a move Northward from the current AC footprint).Seems like they'd have to wipe out that driveway between the AC and the endzone to do that...unless they make the driveway go underneath the expansion. Really can't tell much from that rendering. I always assumed, when they built the AC, that that deck would overlook the endzone. Very surprised when they built the stadium 30 yards too far away for that.

Was able to concentrate on really watching this game and two things really stood out.
1. Those unsportsmanlike penalties were a direct reflection of bad coaching.
2. Though he can run, Aune's accuracy is...well, there is no accuracy.

When I say where I went, I say "North Texas".
When I say I'm going to the game, I say "the Mean Green game". As in, "I can't make it to your lame event. There's a Mean Green game that day."

No college HC experience, but the Texas ties could really help.
Um...I think we said that about Dodge.

Also, I think "North Texas" is going away in favor of "UNT". It's been that way for a while as far as general university branding, but now athletics are going to fall in line as well. I don't like it, but I'm pretty sure that's where we're headed.

10 hours ago, Army of Dad said:I wasn’t close to UNT athletics for as long as you, but I’ve come to the conclusion that UNT will always be ‘little ole UNT’ forever. No where near enough of the alumni or local community care if North Texas wins or loses. That’s partly because the school itself doesn’t care if they win or lose and partly because it’s always been that way. Just watch, they’ll find a way to douchebag up a decent basketball program again.
For as nice as Apogee is, it’s not very big and is never full. Even with all the alumni within 90 minutes of Denton it’s never full. The school and the vast majority of it’s alumni simply do not care about Mean Green athletics. I used to think that eagle could change its colors, but after years of futility the Benford debacle was finally enough to get me to see that UNT will always be UNT. ‘Twas ever thus.
Should North Texas be more than it is? Maybe/probably. Will it ever really fulfill that potential? Almost certainly not. (I think that’s mostly it’s own damn fault, but outside forces will also act to help stop substantive advancements)
Ultimately you have to choose to take the sane and sensible course where you understand that nothing will ever really change or stay in the crazy house with hundreds of your fellows.
There is no G5 program in the country that will fill 30,000 seats to watch a loser. Get the right guy in here and win games and you'll see the place full. The lack of interest is solely based on the quality of the product.

Actual marching! I thought it was good too.
Surprising thing was that we actually saw the band, 'cause the game was actually entertaining at that point.

Won't get out there 'til about 12:30, with a very limited crew. Can't talk anybody into witnessing this s-show.
