Oh my gosh! Darrell Dickey has highjacked MeanGreenSports.com!

This is just my theory which I hope is wrong. Unfortunately, NT has always done it bassackwards and on the cheap.

They'll probably invite South Florida. After all, SF has been on the fast track more than anyone over the past ten years. Have they even had a football program that long? Seems like they just got into football 7-8 years ago. I say this "tongue and cheek", but you never know.

I tend to agree. How far and how fast, if at all, will Todd Dodge take North Texas. If TD is successful over the next two or three years, building a momentum never seen at NT since Fry, and the fan base responds in turnout, contributions and season tickets, then we could see a stadium. In addition, during this "window of opportunity", the university will see where it sits with TxDot and Fouts Field. I think this university will not commit to a new stadium until they see a return on their investment from Todd Dodge and the fan base. If Dodge gets the program back on track, makes some bowl appearances and still does not get 25,000+ fans at Fouts at any given home game, then NT will be looking at the program's existance. The next few years could be the beginning or end of North Texas' committment to big time football as we know it. How can the university commit to a new stadium for $40+ million when the whole university endowment is not much more than that?

My understanding is that zeroU's #42 and #68 are still undergoing mental rehab treatment.

UCF, Troy, MTSU, Tulsa, Western Ky, etc., all seem to be able to take on "huge undertakings". Guess NT is not committed enough.

RV's comments are discouraging, indeed. But I'm not surprised in the least.

Aggie fans should start working on that long gone, but not forgotten NT cheer "THROW THE DAMN BALL!"

Uh, don't they have a score to settle from last year?

You old timers, dig out the Yuccas. Wasn't the '68 team with Mean Joe Greene the last team to wear white helmets?

The email I just received at the office indicated that seats in Section E were still available ....with a $500 Mean Green Club donation, of course.

Here ya go.

I refuse to participate in another "_____________ University to build new stadium".

OU uses transparent reward stickers on their helmets that have been quite effective, depending on how you view the results at ZeroU. A better word is "redeemable" award stickers.

I just happen to think that when the ACC raided the Big East a few years ago, it watered down the league. I'm talking football, BTW. It is a solid basketball conference, no doubt. But football? It's simply watered down. And I don't care what Rutgers did. What have they done previous to last season? The Big East is not a BCS football conference. It's just that the Eastern media keeps them at that level.

The Big (I still don't think it's a BCS conference) East should go after either Memphis, ECU, or UCF. It pains me to mention UCF, but let's face it, they are in the hot market. The article mentions that no program out there is attractive, but I have to ask, "what the hell is UCONN and USF doing in the Big East"? If the BE is good enough for those two programs, it's good enough for UCF, Memphis, or ECU. I know UCONN is one of the basketball powers of the conference, but doesn't Memphis bring a lot to the table too?

Where is Smitty when you really need him. We've got another helmet project going here!

The conference should be after Jackson State and Alcorn State. Heck, why not Southeastern Louisiana. This conference is great for refugees.

So have the atm aggie$.

They never seem to realize that he was a coordinator at the college level, albeit several years ago and at the D1AA level.

Under Armour is nibling away at the Swoosh.

Who wouldn't like to have a kid like that? Darrell Dickey must be foaming at the mouth.

Wouldn't you include Rice?

Todd Dodge has high expectations of Todd Dodge.
