Im old school I'll admit. I'd like to see the team in shirts & ties, maybe even blazers. Back in my day we wore ties on game days...AND WE LIKED IT!!! (Grumpy old man reference)
But I'd settle for matching polos...
That's exactly what many of the big programs do. Especially when they travel by to OOC games. Also, the game programs should have the players' pictures with coat and matching tie.

I'm a little concerned here. Recruiting was put on hold, what, two weeks ago. And now we are waiting for Southlake's season to end? C'mon, we need some allegiance to North Texas. Start interviewing the current staff, keep a few so that we can get the recruiting ball rolling.

I preferred the "Thunderstruck" intro by AC/DC much better and agree, crank up the volume. The residents of Krum should be complaining!
Agree. Thunderstruck is the best yet.

Since the first few minutes of the feed was messed up last night, I went back and watched the missed segment this morning. I was in the MG premium site.

WHAT TIME IS IT?
HEMI TIME!

If Dodge can assemble the right staff, work hard, and recruit good players, NT should be successful. Fry did it. If Dodge is the Coach that we all think he is, then NT will be successful.

Good grief, adman. Lay off the "surprise OU" crap!

"I feel like we can come in and be successful," said Dodge, the offensive coordinator for UNT in 1992-93. "It has really to do with selling the players about what can be done and teaching. There's good football players here."
________________________________________________________________
"[Dodge] is going to adjust to what we have," Jackson said. "A lot of people here are going to make plays for this team."
OK, this guy is already working on the minds of the current team. Already thinking positive, as one might expect a new coach to do. Looks like Jackson has bought into Dodge already.

The hiring of Todd Dodge made the feature front page sports headlines in both the Port Arthur News and Beaumont Enterprise newspapers.
My only complaint in the news release was the mentioning of game attendance (9806) for the last home game, our average (16,000) was 30,000 fewer than the attendance at Texas Stadium for SLC's game; the firing of Dickey only a few weeks after his heart attack, and how the firing of Dickey upset a big time donor to UNT Athletics. MM's name was not mentioned, however.
Other than that, very good coverage and exposure for North Texas. I expect some followup coverage this weekend by a certain sports editor down here.

I think they need to re-name the ticket packages in Section E to the HEMI Package!
-
One poster suggests that Dodge coach at UNT for a year, maybe two, then move on to Dallas and replace Parcells as the Cowboy coach.
Why screw around with D1A football.
-
One other thing: Coach Dodge has as much to lose in this as RV and UNT do. If this is his first step to a big-time college job, he needs to make a splash at this first stop. He needs the kind of success seen at Rutgers or Boise State. If he fails, its a big step back for his career.
Both he and RV are taking a chance, but the reward is just so huge that it's a risk worth taking.
You're partially correct. North Texas has to put Todd Dodge in position to win. If we "poor boy" the recruiting or other important ingredients to a successful program, then everyone fails.
-
Besides myself, Coach Dodge could be the second Mean Green connection from Port Arthur, Tx. Welcome aboard coach!
And for those that don't know it, Todd Dodge's former high school coach, Ronnie Thompson, is now coaching at PA Memorial HS, formerly Thomas Jefferson. Coach Thompson schooled Dodge on the offense that Dodge runs.
Hmmmmmm. Ronnie Thompson for Offensive Coordinator at NT?
-
I can't beleive we haven't even contacted Jimmy Johnson or Mike Ditka about, I mean come on, we need to interview everybody to find the best candidate. Right?
That is the best idea and coaching candidate ever mentioned on this board!

Young can't play in the NFL. Bad throwing mechanics. NFL linebackers are too fast for him.
This is what I actually thought about Vince Young. Especially the fact that he could get killed running the ball with the fast LBs. I did think that Houston should have taken either Matt Leinert or Reggie Bush. Yes, Matt Leinert. They could have traded Carr for a couple of offensive linemen.
Something I realized after seeing the tireless replays of Vince Young running or throwing for winning TDs the past few weeks- Carr came from a decent mid-level, non-BCS program from the MWC in Fresno State. Vince Young came from the a National Championship BCS program in the Texas Longhorns.
Houston really screwed up.

...new seating and academic space in a $176 million renovation project.
That's how you get taxpayers to foot a portion of the bill.

Well all of you so-called posters left out another very important GMG Man Law (I like that).
NEVER, EVER POST IN ALL CAPS!
Welcome aboard!

"We wanted a coach who has a great offensive mind and has been in the trenches, a coach who can sell our program to the community and to student athletes that may have aspirations of coming to our university," said UNT athletic director Craig Helwig.
Anyone doubt that Helwig missed the boat on this hire?
-
Answer me this. If Todd Dodge is hired, suppose his son Riley does not come to North Texas and opts for one of the "big time" programs. Will everyone be okay with that, or will they be looking to tar and feather Todd Dodge? Hey, it could happen. I sure wouldn't hire TD just because I think he'll bring his highly sought after son to Denton in the following year.

I don't have a video clip, but take the time and research Micah Mosley of 4A Nederland HS. The 6-1, 210-pound Mosley had 4,410 career yards; over 2,000 yards this season alone.

Rick, I knew that. I've since corrected my post to read "successful college coaching".

I would be surprised if La Tech could afford Jimbo.
