Thanks for the info, DG. I've looked into joining the Exes before. I think they have a message board on their site. Is that a good place to find old friends?

I'm not in the Exes because we don't really have an active chapter in DC. Plus, I think there are only about five UNT'ers here.

No kidding. Man, we're not that desperate.

I don't want to come off as negative during this euphoric time, but I've been reading the posts on Dodge for the last few weeks. I haven't posted because I'm not as up on coaches as many of you are. I know Dodge has done great things at the HS level, but I'm wondering why hiring a high school is a good thing for a college team. How will he make the transition to college level play? And is it a great recruiting tool? (I'll take my hits now).

BA, PoliSci 1987

I'll be in Denton around Christmas time. Any word on whether it will be closed down by then? I'd like to grab one last pizza and beer before it closes.

horrible movie, but fun to see the old stadium.

Welcome

I blame Michael Richards.

Oh God, not again. Who cares about a twenty year-old game!?

Airplane. See how it comes full circle back to the original word. Cool.

I have to admit that I'm scratching my head over this issue. Just can't see why people are in a wad over it. Or why the national media would pick it up.

Didn't he used to be on the Zoo, KZEW?

That wasn't even a slap. Now this is a slap:

I wanted to major in RTVF and NT had one of the best RTVF departments in the state. Ultimately, I majored in PoliSci and minored in RTVF. Oh, and I grew up in the area and always liked Denton.

Anything will be better than 70s-era bleak mall they have going now. And while they're at it, why don't they replace the Willis Library with something that looks more like a college library than a soviet government building???

Yeah, but softball just isn't the same for me.

That's what it was about when I was there 20 years ago. Hey, if it keeps the kids off the streets...

I'm still pissed that they dropped baseball in favor of girls' softball.

When I lived in Denton I listened to KZPS and KNTU. Now I listen to a local talk station - WMAL - and CDs.

Easy one this -- Harvard. I think having a great sports program is good, but I think having a solid academic reputation is much more important. I didn't go to NT based on its athletic record. Let's face it, most of us didn't.

Couldn't agree with you more. Great post. Thanks.
