  1. Nice overview of CUSA stadiums. Other than UAB's Legion Field were no game was being played, can you guess which stadium shown in the thread is just about empty?? CUSA Stadiums
  2. So this is how you really feel! This is why so many....blah...blah..blah... Other than that, we appreciate your input. GoMeanGreen.com board members...Fair and balanced!
  3. Jump on in! All lurkers are welcome on gomeangreen.com. Welcome!
  4. If SOW does not appear anywhere on the new uniforms, then what we are seeing is the "debranding" of a North Texas tradition, the Eagle, that has been with this university for many years. I'll be disappointed.
  5. True. That's what the critics of UCF said when their stadium was announced. View the picture gallery at the bottom of this page: UCF Stadium
  6. Trilli didn't seem to have trouble with his recruiting. He just couldn't coach.
  7. Yes. I read on the board somewhere that the player said the helmets would be white with North Texas on the sides. He also said that he personally did not like the dark, all-green uniforms of the past few years.
  8. Excellent question GreenBat! Where are the recruits, especially after reaching the NCAA's. A five year extension is just crazy. What is RV thinking? If RV signs JJ to a five year deal, it'll be right up there with the boneheaded Slinker extension. RV could be a real problem for us.
  9. Could serious flood waters totally damage Fouts Field beyond repair?
  10. I knew it! We have had stealth recruiting under DD and now Stealth Fundraising.
  11. These fans sure had better figure Title IX into their big plans. 1A means more scholarships for football. What about the gals? Plus, isn't this about the 50th time TSU-San Marcus has conducted this task force study?
  12. If you go to the CUSA board, there's the annual off season football talk about CUSA expansion in the event of a BSc raid. No one is mentioning NT as an addition. One Texas State Univ-San Marcus fan is really trying to sell TSU-SM to the CUSA board. Like he'll be successful at that.
  13. And you left out...... -Music the Green Brigade should play -How many cars pass through the intersection of I38E and I35W daily? You know, where the soon to be announced stadium will be built. -When will season tickets be mailed -Why NT wasn't admitted in the SWC -4 page thread on the "win that was taken away" against the whorns. Includes video clips.
  14. Someone is in my seat, and I know who you are! But that's O.K. Wish I could have been there!
  15. If Riley's room has been orange and white since birth and he bleeds those colors, he may stick with TU. Even if he merely suits up for games each year at Memorial Stadium but never plays, he just may be satisfied. Some kids are like that. However, if he's competitive enough, then he could change his mind.
  16. I didn't see much of a threat in our running game at all. Handing the ball off from the shotgun needs a lot more work. And lastly, without the draw play, life as we know it won't be the same.
  17. I think it's great that Mack Brown can afford to honor those scholarships. You see, he can be generous with and $85,000,000 athletic budget, and still growing!
  18. Watching on the game on MG Sports internet broadcast is not the same as being there in person, but here goes. Pretty much agree on the QB's and receivers. For 15 days to learn a new system, they looked good. The defense looked good as most have described. I especially liked, from the defensive standpoint, that several attempted passes were batted down at the line of scrimmage. That's a really good thing. Gilmore is going to be a factor this year. Coach Dodge has not implemented his whole offensive playbook, probably due to the introduction of his system in only 15 days, and no doubt because of OU spys in attendance, but I would like to see passes out in the flat to our running backs. And of course the screen pass. Also, I'd like to see the QB under center a few times. Or will this be a 100% no-huddle spread? Not complaining, just asking. All in all it looked like a very productive game. Very well organized on the sidelines.
  19. Offense 48 Defense 29 Crowd in excess of 5,000.
  20. North Texas still in the news. From Bob West's column this morning. "Ever since Southlake Carroll quarterback Riley Dodge committed to Texas a few weeks ago, I’ve wondered how Todd Dodge agreed to let his son go anywhere other than North Texas, especially to a school that probably won’t use him as a QB. I finally found out Friday. “Since Riley is pretty much what we’re looking for at North Texas — we aren’t hung up on whether a player is 5-11 of 6-3 — it wasn’t easy,” Todd said. “But he grew up with his room painted burnt orange. He loves the Longhorns. And I trust Mack Brown and Greg Davis. They were both honest about recruiting him as an athlete. We had a family meeting before he went to their junior day and decided if they offered him and that’s what he wanted, he should take it. As a dad, I’m excited about him playing for my alma mater. As a coach, I’m going to miss him. He’ll be on one the top three quarterbacks in the state as a senior and we could have used him. Texas is one of only three or four schools I would have approved.” Mosely to be in Denton for game today. "Nobody was more unhappy than Nederland’s Larry Neumann when the roster of the South team for the July 31 THSCA All-Star game in Fort Worth was announced without the name of the Bulldogs 4A All-State standout Micah Mosley. “I was astonished and disappointed,” Neumann said. “I felt like he had the best credentials of anybody we’ve ever nominated. I know there are a lot of factors that play into the selections, but I think Micah deserved to be on that team.” Mosley, incidentally, is in Denton today to watch North Texas’ Green-White spring game."
  21. And this is a good thing? Anyone remember how many times we beat MUTS prior to last year? We beat the MUTS spread through some hardnose football and better players.
  22. "The university has raised about $29 million in private donations for the stadium...." Just a little something I wanted to highlight while I wait on the big spring announcement from UNT athletics. Wait....were they talking about next spring?
  23. I look for the NCAA or conferences to make wholesale changes in 1A classifications within the next 10 years. What we will end up with is an "ultra BC$" conference that only the rich and famous programs will be members of. Some of the "pseudo BC$", or as I prefer to describe them, BC$ Lite, programs like So. Florida, Cinncinati, etc. will not be included. Criteria may just be 85,000 plus stadiums that are filled every weekend - for TV, of course! Who knows, maybe the NFL will buy out the NCAA and take over just the BCS big boys. I dunno, but the college football dollar spend race has gotten totally out of hand.
  24. Greatest road trip I ever made. Here is a picture from that very game.
