Here are the Ohio Look-Alikes from the Louisville board, some of them are quite humorous:
I'm going to wait to look at that until after I take a stab at it.

I wore my NT Alumni shirt to work on Friday. A co-worker asked me "What's that - Texas what? What's the "N" stand for?" The problem with that logo is that the N is too small.
I'll second Deep Green's nomination for the SOW helmet.

I would like to see some music about texas- play deep in the heart or the yellow rose, or some other texas themed song to promote the state pride we have since we are North Texas. WVU has country roads they play... Alabama has Sweet Home... we have plenty to work with.
I'd like the GB to replace "Hey Baby" with "Pretty Woman" at the end of the 3rd quarter. Just about every other school plays "Hey Baby". We need to show off Roy Orbison's music! It would even be OK if they wanted to play "Pretty Woman" Van Halen style.
On a related note - the GB had uniform (to use a term) colored khaki pants (shorts?)! I know that won't satisfy Silver much, but it's progress!

Come on, boys! The way you're lollygaggin' around here with them picks and them shovels, you'd think it was a hundert an' twenty degree. Can't be more than a hundert an' fourteen.

Just wow. Who approved this design??? Someone's 90yr old grandfather designed this thing.
Naa - Rick Spears (the creator of the Flying Worm) would be the 90 yr old grandfather, and he would have designed something kick-ass!

And the NCAA will probably take the eligibility away from these kids for being given a reward by the store:
Four members of the William Paterson University football team in New Jersey each scored $50 gift cards after surveillance cameras captured them at a Wayne store paying for batteries and sunglasses, even though no employees were around.

1979 - It was my first week in Texas. I grew up on Long Island, and came to NT for the jazz program (duh). In Bruce Hall, Saturday morning, a non-music major came through the hall (B100) asking "Hey, who's going to the football game". Football? I was a baseball fan, really never had followed football, college or pro. I didn't know about the team, Hayden Fry (who had just left), didn't even know there was a stadium. But why not?
We stomped on UTEP 35-0, I heard how great the band was - and the rest is history.
I'm looking at the 1979 schedule - http://www.databasefootball.com/college/teams/teamyear.htm?TeamID=72&Season=1979 - we played UTEP, Southern Miss, LA Tech, and East Carolina! Seems like joining CUSA is like going back home.

If you don't like the music they have, take a short walk to the Library.
(Note to visitors: these places no longer exist either.)
I prefer going to Benny's.

Is Rice still in CUSA? There's no Houston station on that list.

I doubt having beer will improve ULM's or ArkState's attendance during hunting season.

I've got to question the part where he says as a young man he didn't have plans for being a football coach. I know his high school English teacher, and she said he knew at that time he wanted to be a coach.
Perhaps Mac also learned something about story-telling from Hayden. Which makes me wonder about this quote:
I didn't talk to Hayden (before taking the North Texas job), to be honest with you, because there were other former Hayden Fry assistants that wanted this job. I wasn't going to put him in that position to pick and choose which one he wanted to give a stronger recommendation to.
I'd like to believe that's true.

I can't belive RV actually called it "The Flying Worm" in the press conference!
-
What I object to is the enron-like logo that they use for the band. The Band represents the University, they should wear the University logos.
That "Logo" dates at least to the purchase of the current uniforms, and possibly all the back to when the band voted to call themselves "The Green Brigade" in the mid-80s, shortly after I graduated. A GB member from that time period may be able to confirm this. Certainly, long before the "SOW" was created.
I
wouldn't be surprisedwould expect if/when new uniforms are purchased to see the "SOW" replace that logo. After all, we did have the original "Flying Worm" on the band uniforms from the mid-70s to the early 80s.-

Why charter a bus when you can take the
DART Green LineMonorail to the AAC?If Max Goldblatt had had his way back in the early 80s, Dallas would have a monorail!
http://www.lib.utexas.edu/taro/dalpub/08520/dpub-08520.html
He was nicknamed "Monorail Max" because of his very vocal attempt to bring the Disney Corporation to Dallas in order to build a monorail. He continually criticized DART (Dallas Area Rapid Transit) for being inefficient and antiquated. The monorail idea was shunned and laughed at by the city leaders. However, it may be that his futuristic approach was just "ahead of his time".
