Guess I am not seeing Dodge on the cover. 

I just see "Our Coach is Hotter than Your Coach" Kingsbury and Mahomes.

Hmm, Mahoney looks like he's high, no? Or just completely disinterested...

Looking and the view in Lubbock.

Is our Number 26, Jeffrey Wilson

I see a  couple on the list that we missed out on that would have been nice to have, Schantz (Rice) the DE from Lake Dallas, for instance.  I am also curious about the WR from TSU-SM, Demur Mercer, that was removed from the team.  I read where Withers has them uphold standards including no weapons, no drugs, respect women and on other that I don't recall.  It would be nice to look in to him, but it sounds serious considering Withers was one of three WR's dismissed thus gutting their WR depth.  That  young man was a stud QB at LaMarque High School.

They seem confident he will play this year.

But that is about all you can complain about regarding ULL fans.  Overall, they are a fun group and it is a great road trip.

 

Ahhh, the Dog Days of Summer are upon us where conference realignment talk gets us through June, helmet stickers gets us through the first week or two of July and then new uniform talk leads us up to the start of August practices.

I think it is the fact that Buccee is a beaver.

If we were to reform I'd prefer this combination.

Big Gulf Conference

North Texas

Rice

UTEP

UTSA

LA Tech

Southern Miss

UAB

South Alabama

 

I think it would be fine with 8 teams, but if most wanted 10 for a title game, then I'd structure it like this.

 

Big Gulf Conference

Texas Division

North Texas

Rice

UTEP

UTSA

Texas State

Old South Division

LA Tech

Southern Miss

UAB

South Alabama

Arkansas State

 

I think either set up would be a nice competitive conference for football and basketball. Great regional divisions, but not too regional as a conference.

Give me ULL over South Alabama and TSU-SM.

[16' JUCO DT Dequinton Osborne (Kilgore JC)]

Ridiculous.  Doesn't he realize that DQ is the stop sign of North Texas.  That doesn't work at OSU.

[Todd Dodge]

He is where he needs to be.  Good for him.

Anyone here someone that could in a play day 1?

You lost me bro.

I had also forgotten about McDuffie.  I don't think he did anything memorable while here anyway.  I tried to research him and discovered that he was accused of sexual harassment at his last AD job, Eastern Ilinois.

[Mean Green sighting]

New Zion Missionary Baptist Church, Huntsville, TX.  That is all.

[Buc-ee’s set to come to Denton by 2018]

Big fan of HEB.  Oh, and Buccee's is still overrated.

[regional conferences]

Makes too much sense

 

[Updated UNT FB 2016 Walk-On List]

Cason has good stats and an impressive video.  How does this young man get overlooked?  He does not have a profile on 247, Rivals or Scout.

[June 20th, 2016 - How will you celebrate?]

Let the man go in peace. Celebrating a man leaving his job is not my cup of tea. 

[Buc-ee’s set to come to Denton by 2018]

Still not seeing the fascination.  Same can be said for Starbucks.  Guess good marketing wins here.  Quick Trip, Race Trac, Valero, etc... are all the same.   Stuckey's used to rule, though.

[MGB: QB dominoes starting to fall in '17 in C-USA/Texas]

I'd be happy with Pearson and Washington.

[Buc-ee’s set to come to Denton by 2018]

I do not understand the fascination.

Apparently the Astate board isn't worth a shit. But, uh, you can always go back to it. 

Arkstfan is always welcome here.  He has great insight and obviously connections that provide great information on topics of this nature.  Try not to be a d-bag.

FYI president@unt.edu goes straight to URCM. Not intercepted.

I won't argue the careless part, though.

Regardless, a person in the position of university president has "gatekeepers" to filter what gets through to the Pres and what is sent to someone else to handle.

Would you have gone if you had?

Yes, just the chance to lace Helwig's chili with something that would have done him in would be enticement enough.

[Mattress Mac]

Well, Dickey was known for lengthy practices, so maybe it is appropriate.

[What does Benford need to stay at UNT?]

Based on @Matt from A700 signature line, it appears that Benford needs to insure his/her attendance at every game.

[UNT Baseball: The Time Is Now]

I know this probably will not happen and will be another point in our history where timing worked against us, but with Garrido stepping down at UT, the future of Skip Johnson is up in the air.  If he is not retained by UT, then we should make a push to get him here to start our program.  He is probably the most respected pitching coach in the NCAA and has a number of MLBA players that work with him in the off-season including Clayton Kershaw.  He would give us instant credibility, has connections all over the state and would attract top level talent, especially pitchers, that would want to work with him.  Now may be the time where coming home, building a program and leaving a legacy is important to him.  Please, BOR, make this happen now or we may miss out on a golden opportunity.
