Good one.... I almost believed it!

In case any of ya'll are interested, the UNT swim team is having their Green vs White meet tomorrow @ the Rec Center pool @ 2pm!

That would actually look cute, now that I think of it! LOL

I just read the release off and way to go Jamario!

I have to say the only reason I watched the game is becuase my parents are Ohio Alum and my sis currently goes there. The game was pretty borning, until the end. Did you see that Pedene as soldout? Wish we could do that on Oct 4th vs Troy!

A huge congrats to Adrian! Go Mean Green!

I was on espn.com and found this, if anyone is interested! Sun Belt relocates; discusses U. New Orleans Sun Belt relocates, discusses U. New OrleansBy Andy Katz ESPN.com The Sun Belt Conference and the University of New Orleans are discussing whether athletes in sports that straddle two semesters, such as men's basketball, should consider enrolling at another institution if they want to compete in 2005-06. Sun Belt commissioner Wright Waters, who held a media conference call Friday to discuss the condition of the conference office that had to be moved from New Orleans to Lafayette, La., said he spoke with UNO athletic director Jim Miller about making plans for winter sport teams in the wake of Hurricane Katrina's destruction of New Orleans. "The decision as to whether UNO will be open this spring hasn't been made,'' said Waters, essentially conceding that the fall semester would be lost. "We talked that it would be in everybody's best interest that the sports that go over a semester should enroll somewhere else to get them practicing and start working on making arrangements as to where the games in the fall [November and December] would be played.'' Attempts to reach New Orleans athletic director Jim Miller and men's basketball coach Monte Towe have been unsuccessful since cell phones with New Orleans prefixes aren't working yet. Waters said Miller and the UNO administrative officials were due to meet in Baton Rouge on Friday to discuss a plan. Waters said he and Miller discussed how the conference would treat UNO if it doesn't have school this semester. The NCAA issued a release Thursday in which it detailed how it would relax rules for those affected by the storm. Aid for the students will be allowed, as will the academic rules for students to compete since some at UNO and Tulane might play without being in school or even compete with little schooling whenever they get into a college this fall. Waters said Miller told him that there was damage on the UNO campus. Lakefront Arena, according to Waters, is five miles from the 17th Street Canal levee that broke, flooding the city. "Jim told us that there is water up to the doors of Lakefront Arena. Whether it got in or not he didn't know,'' Waters said. "That's all the information we have. Like everyone else, we're trying to watch TV and figure out where our houses are and what it looks like.'' Waters said there was damage to South Alabama's campus in Mobile, but athletic director Joe Gottfried told Waters the school would be up and running soon and that it would still host the Sun Belt's soccer championship. "UNO is quite another thing,'' Waters said. "UNO is right in the middle of an awful lot of problems in New Orleans.'' Waters said that there have been discussions about New Orleans' teams moving to another school in the conference. "If that's the direction that UNO goes, then we will make arrangements,'' Waters said. "We have discussed a number of schools in the league like [Arkansas] Little Rock, FIU [Florida International], which is a little bit of stretch and a number of other schools have extended to take their students like Middle Tennessee State. MTSU would give a tuition waiver like LSU extended to students from New Orleans.'' Meanwhile, the Sun Belt offices should be running early next week out of Louisiana-Lafayette. Waters said the conference has rented executive suites for the staff to live in the area but that they're taking it "day by day.'' Waters said the conference has to tend to its business of certifying athletes for fall sports and running championship events. They hope to be able to do that by next week. "We have to maintain the service to the membership,'' said Waters. "How soon we get back to New Orleans and see about our office and homes we just don't know.'' Waters said the conference's problems pale in comparison to those of the people of New Orleans but there are some trivial, albeit basic issues for the conference to solve. For one, its database is in New Orleans, meaning basics like the history of the league and media guides are all possibly damaged in the storm. The Sun Belt has eight Division I-A football members: Florida Atlantic, Florida International, North Texas, Troy, Louisiana-Monroe, Louisiana-Lafayette, Middle Tennessee and Arkansas State. The University of New Orleans, Denver, South Alabama and Western Kentucky compete in the league in other sports. Andy Katz is a senior writer at ESPN.com.

Way to go Horned Toads is all I have to say! Way to show 'em that any school in Texas is better than any school in Oklahoma!

Wow they need to make some serious changes to that brochure.

Its great that JMo and PC made the list, but I agree with ya'll, they should be ranked higher on the list.

Looks good!

Dr. Pohl, even though you still have a year left at UNT, you will be dearly missed. Thanks for everything you have done to get UNT noticed. You will be missed so much and best of luck!

Saw the news on the class that signed for swim team. From reading about what seems to be a great bunch a swimmers, the Mean Green should have a great season. Go Mean Green!

Looks nice! I'll have to get my hands on one!

I'm a huge cycling fanatic and have been watching the Tour coverage on OLN at least twice a day. I got to see Lance race out at the Tour De Georgia in April, and boy was that an experience I will never forget. His team is the strongest in years and they'll do everything to keep Lance where he is. The next few days are flat stages, not Lances specialty, so we'll have to see how long he can hold on to the Yellow Jersey! Once the mountain stages come is when the big action with all of Lances contenders will take place, but that is still almost two weeks away. In the meantime, Go Lance Go! Go Mean Green!

Very interested depending on the price!

Good Luck to the Mean Green at NCAA Midwest Regionals. Go out and make UNT proud!

Good Luck to Coach Jackson and represent UNT well!

I went to the first game of the doubleheader on Sunday. The ladies did a great job even though FIU beat them. They made some nice plays and some great diving catches!

I watched alot of the game last night and a huge congrats to the Bears. With everything they have gone through, they deserve that National Championship!

I see that under Tourney Duds- Teams that rarely meet expections has listed Florida as the first, which is good. They play Ohio U, my parents alma mater and my twin sis's current school, on Friday in Nashville! I hope that Florida once again is a disappointment and gets creamed by Ohio in the first round!

Way to go ladies! Keep it up!
