Buffalo's stadium looks like Fouts Field's long lost twin

There ya go

No surprise here. Our stadium isn't completed yet so there's no way it was going to be in the game and we don't know what the uniforms are going to look like so how could they be in the game?

Can y'all please take your cat fight somewhere else? Thanks and Go Mean Green!

Our biggest problem is that our most well known and practiced tradition is crappy football. Until we stop that tradition it won't matter what we come up with.

Hotter co-eds too

I've been hearing this for awhile. Liked what I heard, except for the eagle-less helmets

Not offended. Just a pet peeve of mine. Seems like something that would go in the recruitment forum.

So what exactly does a high school magazine have to do with Mean Green football?

There's one on 35 south just before the main street exit

I guess for UNT he was a great coach, but when you look at the whole picture (OOC record and bowl performance) I think it really just shows how bad UNT football has been over the years and how bad the Sun Belt was in the early 2000's.

Usually my two favorite beers are Blue Moon and Dos Equis, but I really like Shiner's summer beer, Ruby Redbird.

I never said you can't get someone to be involved on campus, it's just a whole lot easier when they come in already excited to be there. And on the camps freshmen go to before school starts. UNT needs to completely overhaul theirs. Everyone I've talked to that went to Camp Crimson at OU or Fish Camp at A&M say those few days are some of the best days they had at school. Meanwhile, everyone at UNT seems to consider what we have some of their boring-est days at UNT. I helped work a few of them once and they were pretty dull. Let's change it up a bit and get kids excited about North Texas

I sorta agree with this statement and I think it's a reason why student participation is low on campus when it comes to student organizations and athletic events. When you have a bunch of kids coming to your school just because its the only one they could afford or its close to home you're going to have a harder time getting them involved compared to a kid who had in interest in the school since they were little.

Sorry, forgot our first game was on a Thursday. And I never wanted to argue anything. I was just saying what I've been taught since I've been at UNT, which is Mean Green is the name we go by and the Eagle is our logo and mascot. No one has to tell me the history between the two. Trust me, I've had to explain it to what seems like a thousand people. Like one of my fraternity brothers says, "I came to UNT for the pride and prestige of the Eagle and Go Mean Green!"

I wish there was... September 3rd can't get here fast enough!

That when referencing our athletic teams in the media it should be the Mean Green not Eagles. It's confusing when your football team is called by two different names.

I think a lot of people have completely misunderstood what I'm trying to say. I know our mascot is the eagle and I know that's what we were known by for a long time. All I'm saying is that when talking about our athletic teams it's the Mean Green.

Because the NT Daily is known for being right all the time... I forget, what's our new stadium called? Eagle Stadium or Mean Green Stadium?

Not sure, but I know that they're not the Lady Eagles.

This seems to happen once every football or basketball game.

Not sure how you think I'm being combative. I'm just simply stating that "Mean Green" is the name that represents our school, not "Eagles." I know that the Eagle is on all of our products and I believe it will always be apart of the school's culture (as I said in my previous post...)

Maybe if you would have kept reading my post you would have saw what I think about this.

Look, I know when most people on this board went to UNT we were known as the "Eagles", but that isn't the case anymore. You'll be hard pressed to find any UNT apparel with Eagles on it and they'll only become more rare over time. The eagle will always have it's place in UNT culture (ex. Scrappy, logo, and being in the fight song). However, the name of our athletic teams is the North Texas Mean Green, not North Texas Eagles.
