  1. Not the greatest win in school history, but 50% of the teams in D-1 today wish they had our result. This will be remembered for a long time.
  2. Given that our three biggest needs the next few years will be Recruiting, Butts-in-Seats, and Checks Written, this hire will need to be a "name". RC and Dodge are the two biggest out there from our perspective. The good news is that it will not be a total rebuilding project, there's plenty to work with already, especially at the skill positions.
  3. T-U-L-S-A backwards spells A-S-L-U-T. Noticed that at the game up there when they were running their flags. Just sayin'.
  4. Someone coming off a 57 TD season doesn't "fall" off the radar. They get booted off.
  5. She should have told them "No way. I quit doing the McDonalds thing when I was 17."
  6. The bookstore in the Union had some child-sized Quinn jerseys when I was there Monday night.
  7. I've seen one schematic (can't remember where) that has the South end zone becoming part of the northbound service lanes of I-35E. It might have been at the TXDOT website.
  8. your senior prom had an on-site nursery When the local science teacher mentions that a new galaxy has been discovered, you thought somebody must've dragged another Ford out of the swamp.
  9. Your "alternate" mascot is even worse than an Albino Squirrel apologize to those yet to go to lunch...had to do it.
  10. "It was our second string" is always a stupid argument.....it basically implies that the team has no depth.
  11. I'm referring to the University, not just the football team. Last Saturday's loss was disappointing, but I don't feel my degree wasn't cheapened at all. Perhaps my boss should have called me in and said "your alma mater lost on the road, since your credentials aren't what they were last Friday, clear out your desk." It's a matter of perspective. By your point of view, 60 Division 1-A teams should have fired their coaches on Sunday, since they did not represent their university in the best possible light. I am looking forward to cheering on the Green this Saturday. I'm guessing that some of you are so disgusted that you will be too embarassed to be seen in Denton. You won't be missed (except at the turnstile).
  12. That's the point...most of us don't consider the University of North Texas to be "mediocre".
  13. He was the first guy to implement the "All 11 of you go after # 20" Defense that has confounded our braintrust for about 15 games now.
  14. It's negotiated in the contract. I'm guessing this was a rhetorical question, the answer should be obvious.
  15. UT already plays a game in Dallas every year. Schools that this makes sense for are A&M and large programs in other parts of the nation that recruit Texas, such as USC, Michigan, etc. that might see the benefit in playing a game in this recruiting base. I think Michigan would pack in about 50K plus at Texas Stadium since 50% of everyone born in Michigan from 1950-1980 live in DFW now.
  16. Against us, they will probably go to a 3-3-3- stack.
  17. Their uniforms are so sexy, it enrages their opponents, especially us.
  18. I do that on job interviews, I've gotten questions such as "What is your biggest weakness?" that I usually answer with something like "I set my goals too high" or "I work too hard" or something like that.
  19. It does happen to them. And by Dec/Jan, the BcS programs have already offered many, making the chances of keeping our recruits greater. Do not trust what you see on Rivals. Their ratings change based on who a player declares interest in. For example, an Arkansas recruit that is 3-stars might decide to go to Ark St instead for whatever reason (playing time, close to home, whatever). He will "lose" a star in their rating system, and it has nothing to do with his ability. Rivals is selling memberships, nothing else. They feed their customers what they want to eat.
