North Texas Adds 6 Games for Future
UNTcrazy727 replied to TheReal_jayD's topic in Mean Green Football
This is flat out false. A lot of schools play FCS opponents almost every year. No one cares.- 86 replies

A handful of schools have done this in the past. https://rutgerswire.usatoday.com/lists/what-college-football-programs-are-selling-tickets-at-costco/

Several AAC and MWC schools have reached out to the Pac 9
UNTcrazy727 replied to Cougar King's topic in Mean Green Football
Will all these AAC schools still be clamoring to join once Oregon, Washington, Arizona, etc. leave? I have my doubts. -
I agree. I don't get all the hype around FAU. They were garbage last year. People are just assuming Herman is going to start kicking ass again. I'm not so sure.

Because its a local company with a good reputation.

UNT finally changes logo on ESPN
UNTcrazy727 replied to Coach Andy Mac's topic in Mean Green Football
They have to make a request for ESPN to change it. Initially, ESPN grabs whatever logo they think we want to use. They probably used the UNT Eagle logo because we use it so much (which needs to stop). So glad this was finally fixed. It has been bugging me for years. -
Yes, exactly. How good your opponents are is a big factor in how many games you'll win. There are 4 teams on our schedule also going through "rebuilds" and there are 4 teams most would say we are better than. I don't think we'll be great this year, but we have 8 very winnable games. To think we are only capable of winning 2-3 of those games is very pessimistic, IMO.

Cal, Navy, Tulsa, and UAB are in the same situation as us. And I don't think its a big stretch to say we have better talent than ACU, FIU, La Tech, and Temple.

2 or 3?! We should cover that in OOC. We will likely be favored or only a 1 score underdog vs FIU, La Tech, ACU, Navy, Temple, Tulsa, UAB, and probably Memphis. IMO, there's little reason we shouldn't win at least 5 games.

Yeah, that's not great... I can't say I ever hear anyone refer to us as the "Mean Green Machine". The one I hear is "Aren't y'all the Mean Green Eagles?"

This is the only time I can recall it being said as well. Didn’t have a problem with it. We “wrecked” brackets by beating Purdue. Not sure where OP is seeing other references.

They are extremely hard to find. I've been pushing Voertman's and UNT to get more golf gear on shelves, but haven't had much luck. UNT golf towels, tees, ball markers, head covers, and pitch mark tools are all RARE finds.

Exactly! Even UTSA was smart enough to figure this out. Doesn't take a graphic designer to figure out which one looks better. University: Athletics:

This is a score bug. Most of the time there's not enough space to write out "North Texas." What I think Jared is saying is instead of having "North Texas" shortened to "N.Texas" we'll use "UNT" instead. The logo should just be the Diving Eagle.
-
Reading between the lines, get ready for a lot more “UNT”.
-
I don’t think that’s what he’s saying. He’s referring to the score bug on TV broadcasts saying “UNT” instead of something like “N.Texas”

One game suspension seems very light for a crash caused by a DWI. I think you’re right though. Doubt we see another punishment.

What's funny is during our NIT run Ryan Peck confirmed the AD does not want the UNT Diving Eagle logo used on TV broadcasts, score bugs, ESPN App, etc. It should always just be the Diving Eagle. I totally agree with that. However, if that's the case, why do we use the UNT logo all the time??? That's going to make people think its okay to use as our primary logo.

I think you’re right. If I had to guess, the UNT System is forcing this on athletics. They’re trying to grow the UNT system into a monster and they know athletics is the best way to promote the university. So instead of allowing athletics to keep the “North Texas” branding they are forcing it to adopt the UNT name. I’m sure some marketing consultant convinced UNT admins people are too stupid to make the simple connection between North Texas and UNT. Never mind schools like Oklahoma (OU), North Carolina (UNC), Texas State (TSU), Boise St (BSU), and San Jose St (SJSU) make it work.
