    Thanks, wardly...., ie, another one who can see trees, the forest and the whole darn county where they're located.

    I only wish others could just put the green kool-ade down long enough, take a peak outside the Denton city limits and see what is and has been going on around us for awhile now; all that as we continue in our Mean Green dream-fest of not being too realistic and not wanting to accept the cold, ugly facts at times.

    So Now It's Postive Thinkin' Time On The Titanic:

    If I had been on that fateful trans-Atlantic cruise early last century and then suddenly...... "WHAM!"......our ship hits the biggest Texas-sized ice cube I've ever seen while at the same time the ship starts listing and then........... someone gets in my face telling me I should not express concern; "just sing with me "Don't Worry-Be Happy" because our Captain says everything is hunk-dory fine & has everything in order (and if the Captain says that it must be true, right?" :).............. and with that my cue to say this to the Titanic's well-meaning Spirit Team Leader............ "I appreciate what you're telling me, good buddy, and perhaps we can even show solidarity and sing....."Nearer My God To Thee"........in 2 part harmony, 'yet in spite of all the positive, upbeat things I'm hearing from you pal'............this ship is still going down!"

    "And beggin' your forgiveness, O Titanic Spirit Team Leader, but please spare me any more pep talks at this point because I'm presently knee deep in some "VERY" cold salt water." :(

    SERIOUSLY.............We've had 8 losing seasons in a row for a reason, folks, and during that time we also saw an SBC program with less than a $10 million "total" athletic budget (ULM) go "Beep! Beep" past us (while beating #8 ranked Arkansas last Fall,too) and a main reason that happened with that one school from Monroe, LA, has been the main theme or topic on this message board the last 24 hours, namely...................R-E-C-R-U-I-T-I-N-G !

    JUCO's? I think UNT's hand has now been forced to have to recruit more JUCO's but I've never seen that as so much a negative.

    As I recall, Boise did a bunch of JUCO recruiting back in their early rise up the NCAA Totem Pole of Top 25 rankings. Yet JUCO's get 2 years to come in and contribute early and by that time our 2 star recruits (and I do NOT say that with any semblance of sarcasm) will be bigger, stronger (maybe even quicker) and be ready to contribute.

    It Can Be All Good If We Start Doing Things Right...

    GMG!

    PMG for head coach and AD. Dear Lord help us all.

  2. On the local sports talk show yesterday one of the local TV

    Sports guys commented that there will be an announcement, probably in March,

    that NMSU has something lined up. This guy is usually fairly accurate on the

    comments he makes. Of course he used the old line of “I cannot not reveal my

    sources” but he did say that NMSU fans would be surprised and happy

    Makes me think it won't be the SBC.
