Forgive me if this has already been posted...but has anyone seen this yet? https://greenbrigade.music.unt.edu/trip/home

Is FFR gonna wear the Dillo costume?

Now, if they did a Beatles Tribute show, that would be amazing!

Dollars to Donuts, the bookstore or Voertman's is still selling it...

Not to be distrusting, but can someone post a link about the game/start time, etc? I'm probably looking right at it, but cant find anything....Is it on FB or Twitter or something?

I got news for ya....That's no accident anymore...

Littrell needs to give the football version of this speech...

Very talented. Why hasnt he entered the portal? : )

Not everyone that tried out for UNT Dancers made the cut....Look Carefully..See if you can pick the ones that didnt make the final cut. Better luck next year...

Unfortunately, (and I HATE this answer...) but this is the world we live in now. You HAVE to have sexy facilities. Remember, you're trying to "woo" a 17 year old kid to come play ball here. And those facilities don't provide the promise of greatness, that leads to wins....The facilities, unfortunately, just keep you in the running for a kid, even if he's just average, to even consider you...Is that the smart decision/criteria for a kid to make a decision where he will get an education that could be the moral compass for the rest of their life? No, probably not.. But remember, he's 17... The facilities are part of the bait....I'm not saying they're not valuable in the development of the athlete, they really are. But early on, you're throwing bait out there, and trying to set the hook. Still need coaching... This discussion always reminds me of something.. (Bear with me...) I work in architecture, and I've done alot of national brand facilities, restaurants, health clubs, etc. Certainly nothing like a Stadium or practice facility . But years ago, I did alot of Health Clubs ( I wont use names, but you can probably figure it out...) We did numerous locations all over the country. And we ALWAYS put in Basketball Court...Always... And well over half of the locations we did were retro-fits, not necessarily brand-new buildings. Could be a old grocery store, or warehouse, etc. and we'd have to design how to lay it all out. And a BBall court never fits into any existing building. Existing columns are always in the way, the roof structure was too low, etc. etc. So, it was a major engineering overhaul to get a BBall court into an existing building. Major surgery to the structure. So if you think about what the owner is paying per Square foot for a Giant Room with goals at each end, it doesn't make sense on paper at all... I'd visit these locations and always see 5 or 6 guys playing BBall in there, or maybe, on rare occasion a Hoops tourney going on. So I ultimately had to ask the question to the client "Are these Giant A$$ courts REALLY worth spending all the money you put into them? NOBODY uses these damn things!!!!!" They said "Absolutely...The court is nothing more than eye candy that makes people sign up for memberships" 98% of the people that visit the club see the court and say "Wow they even have a BBall Court!!!". Only 2% ever step inside and use it. Without that court, they'd lose alot of average people signing up for memberships...

im not confident we can beat either of those teams...

I for one thought DT showed solid progression...No, he wasnt a Heisman candidate, but the guy was a leader and did a great job at managing the offense, and reading a defense. Thats my opinion, Im sure there are those out there shaking their heads and will downvote...fine. But to be fair, I dont think Chico should be judged on DT alone..DT DID progress and remember that winning season was 2013...Alot of us learn in our jobs in 7 years... I'm simply saying given some of the coaching choices we've had run through here in recent years, I think Chico should at least be considered a candidate and granted an interview...

App State 49 (By halftime) Final Score....App State 56, UNT 17

I sure hope so....We might have a fighting chance!

Remember, those fans are 8-3....I'd do a lil meth to get to an 8-3 season...

Made the long drive last bowl game. This is another long drive, and App State is 8-3, so..

I swear, if I show up and RV is standing there taking cash....

Forgive me if this has been already asked....But what is UNT doing about parking this Friday? Since it's not a game that was originally scheduled here, and likely not a very big crowd, will the allow people to park at Apogee for this game? Have to buy a pass ahead of time? Anyone heard anything?

I remember my first Green Beer too...

Agreed. That guy is the absolute KING of technique on "How to Strip A Ball to Fumble"

I think finding a Grad Transfer for next year - or - a QB in the portal for interim years, is the best option. Seems to me that that QBs that are talented, and likely feel like the writing is on the wall that they're not going to start, are likely to want to make a move more than other positions. Sure, we need to do a better job recruiting Freshmen, and developing the into starters. But Jeez our system seems to be broken and honestly, this year has been so crazy, I dont even down know what we have in the "down-ballot" of young QBs. Seems like getting some guys in here with experience for a couple seasons is a worthy time investment. Forgive me if this question has been asked before...But has anyone discussed the idea of Bean being converted to receiver possibly? He's Tall, crazy fast...I know he'd need to put some weight on him, but thoughts?

and I'd assume outdoor (safer) vs indoor. Although, I'm wondering if they'll even allow fans?

Nachos? Wren Baker’s beer? Mrs Villareal’s purse?

Arch-nemesis Rick Villarreal sold separately.

i think we're gonna have a really tough time recruiting, but it's base on numerous things, and terrible record doesnt help much. But, SL is acting as the OC (or co-OC, I dont exactly know...not sure anyone does...) Our QB Coach had to leave a week before the season started due to his own issues... At the very least, our first year DC should be fired, not sure what he's doing/running, but it's just a mess out there. So, my point is, SL seems to be spread really thin...Who is even DOING the recruiting given all of the moving parts described above?
