TCU to play Ohio State in a home and home
MeanGreenDadx2 replied to untjim1995's topic in Mean Green Football
We are at a standoff. The beauty of a spreadsheet is varying one cell and immediately seeing the result. So even though the precise data is not available you can see the bottomline effect to see the relative importance. But you are not interested in looking at the bottom line. I am sure the athletic dept looks at it and uses it to make the decision. Funding the dept is important, everyone's job depend on it, continued existence of each sport depends on it. Case in point is the UNT finance dept problem that affected all departments at UNT. -

Terrible, horrible, the world will come to an end in 2015. You still haven't shown me the facts and data. Hate to pull you back to that but I insist. Yes, the fact is we have 5 home games. Agreed. But show me the bigger picture of the athletic dept budget with the current 2015 five game schedule and the proposed home and home series with whoever. -

And I'm saying convince me with hard facts and data. Choose the team of your dreams, one that we have a reasonable chance of beating (as you said in your previous post) and run the numbers. Then we can add in the intangibles on the decision process. -

I prefer to deal in facts and hard data especially in decisions involving money. Maybe someone who likes spreadsheets could create one and put in some data. Then look at various scenarios. Or would you prefer not to be confused with facts and data. Just because someone else did or did not do something is not justification for you to do the same. You must understand their situation and use it as a guide in your decision process. Their situation is not identical to yours. Use your facts and perhaps your outcomeay be different. -

Let's understand the financial side of a home and home series. First, the home team keeps all the ticket and concession money. Second, the visiting tram receives a modest fee subject to negotiations. So if say Oklahoma visits North Texas they would receive something along the lines of the cost of the bus trip, meals and accommodations and. North Texas gets the money from ticket sales and concessions. Perhaps, some money for TV rights, etc. Of course, then similarly when we visit Oklahoma. Compare that income to body bag game income for a onetime visit to Oklahoma. If you are responsible for the budget of the North Texas Athletic Dept then do you schedule home and home series once a year, twice a year or for all OOC games? Now answer that question if you are the Oklahoma AD. -

No helmet change for 2014 Season
MeanGreenDadx2 replied to UNTeagle88's topic in Mean Green Football
OMG, no change to the helmet(s). The world is coming to and end. We all are gonna die. The big bang is gonna look like a firecracker compared to what is in store for us. The worst plague will sweep through and everyone will suffer horribly before dying. All because the absolute ugliest helmut ever is NOT going to change. And it is the fault of the North Texas Athletic department. Woe is us. Good bye to y'all. And to think the upcoming football season has so much promise, season ticket sales were poised to reach new heights, this seasons cheerleaders were gonna be the best ever, the band would sound better than ever before, etc. Jeesh people, get a grip. -
I'm thinking either omelettes or breakfast tacos for the pregame tailgate then hotdogs for the post game and a dessert to be named later.

A bunch of goll dern wimmin talking about clothing for men playing a violent game. Worrying about " accent" colors and "branding" and "logos" like it makes a difference when a 305 pound defensive lineman meets a 195 pound back carrying the pigskin. "I just love how the green in your jersey brings out the green in your eyes" said the lineman. To which the ball carrier replied "that logo on your helmet is so tastefully accented in sky blue".

The Big 10 starts playing a 9 game in-conference schedule in 2016 leaving only 3 games for OOC. It will be difficult to schedule any near term games with the Big 10. I believe the SEC has voted to stay with an 8 game in-conference schedule. I can't speak for the PAC-12 or the Big 12 or the ACC.

Good marketing can fix it. Repackage it and call it bacon. -

Some call hard hitting defense "smashmouth" or "bringing the wood" or "slobber knocking". Others whine about it. -
WSJ Story About Student Attendance at College FB Games
MeanGreenDadx2 replied to jredallas's topic in Mean Green Football
The number of sellouts at Nebraska is now at 329. -
UTSA is playing better than expected to this point. But given that their football is relatively new (3 years?), their depth is a concern for them. If the injury bug bites them before we play them November 23rd, the lack of depth could really hurt their record whereas we have more depth and can adjust to injuries with qualified replacements.

Emmitt Absolutely, this is one of your best posts, ever. We all need to find someone to bring to Apogee to see this team. They won't win every game BUT they won't quit any of the games. Dale

My impression of Brelan's last punt return was he was "possessed". He absolutely refused to go down, refused to quit and actually seemed to run harder as the return played out. He used his blockers very well and made cuts to the open. If he does that for every return and kickoff, we will see TDs. Comments?

We will be there Sat morning. However the menu has changed. Since it will be warmer than we expected on Saturday, we will be cooking pizza instead of chili. See ya there. Dale
