  1. First off I wanna start off by saying that I rarely ever post on here, but I check this site numerous times day so I feel like I know what has been going on lately. I realize by posting what I'm about to say might put me under fire just like DD, but I care too much about UNT athletics to sit and just watch all the negativity go on. I hope that you all can respect my position and rethink yours with an open mind. With that being said...... I understand completely what DD is saying. We (UNT) have got a great opportunity in our hands to do something really special. We have a chance to make UNT something awesome. To me it seems that a majority of the people on this board are content with the ways things are right now. And yes we have a great new coach that has breathed new life into UNT football, but we cant expect him to change everything around by himself. We as the loyal fans to UNT have to step up and make a difference. Times are changing around campus and we need to take full advantage of it. Hypothetically speaking, what happens if TD doesn't make a good transition to college football? Are we just gonna sit around and wait for another "God-like coach" to pull us out of the dumps? Cause just like DD was saying, we will be in the exact same spot that we were in just a few months ago. Now is the time for us to step up and not make changes, but make additions. As far as traditions go, why not try and start a few more? Is it going to make things worse? I went to every home game last season and to about half the year before (I'm only a Junior) and I always brought along a few friends hoping that they too would become UNT die-hards, but as games went on I noticed more and more students just sitting down (partly because we were losing). I think if we had a few more exciting traditions going on during the games that we would have a more supportive crowd. Also, think about what all comes along with better traditions....better fan support....better recruits....better football. It's all relative. I'm not knocking the traditions we have now, I'm simply saying that this is a great time for UNT so why not leave our mark. 20 or 30 years from now when the new stadium is sold out every Saturday with an energetic crowd, wont it feel great to know that you had a part in it? To know that you just didn't sit around and let one coach turn the whole program around...if it were even possible. Alright I'm done with my soapbox speech. I feel like I'm giving a pep talk from Remember the Titans or something. Let the heckling begin.
  2. i like that eagle....but you know what could make it better.....some bright orange flames trailing the eagle head.
  3. hey smitty.....have you played around with a black outline on the eagle. i'm betting it would probably look terrible but it's another idea. good work by the way....the designs look great!
  4. i don't really like it either, i was just showing the stripe down the center.
  5. i don't think i would mind so much if we had some stripes going down the center of it. it's just too plain with only the logo. this is not bad....found it on the internet. sorry if this one has already been posted.
  6. does anybody else hate the new font for North Texas? i'd rather have what we have now than the new letters.
  7. I believe so. They own the biggest house in Texas.
  8. It's not the fact that we are getting beat by them, it's that we are not even putting up a good fight. I don't expect us to always win against the top tier colleges, but at least try.
  9. Yea. He was just looking for a quick fix, but reevaluating sounds like the more reasonable decision. I think he's feeling the pressure to get a few more wins before the season ends and is in desperation mode.
  10. Maybe DD's intentions were to make the 1st stringers work harder and show more intensity. That could be why he gave them a second chance in the second half of the game. But I see what you're saying though.
  11. Because at some point you have to give some other players a chance to prove themselves. I think a season and a half of unsatisfactory play is ridiculous.
  12. actually i was talking to a coworker of mine (who's a good friend of rick's) just this week about the supposed new stadium and she said that he said that a company had recently made a pretty big contribution. she couldnt remember the exact amount but said that it was at least a million. i know you may have a hard time believing me but im just repeating what she told me.
  13. I actually watched this guy play a few weeks ago. He was pretty impressive. He definitely has an arm.
  14. how do you "know" all of this? hmmm. are you secretly RV? hah
  15. Is there any way we can get this idea of a new stadium circulating again? I know it's not the answer to all our problems, but it will help with the recruiting aspect. It would be a good thing for UNT.
  16. hey everybody. im kinda new to the board and I was wondering when the next conference realignment is.
