I think the only problem with having the baseball team, and why we only have a club team, is because we do not have enough women sports yet. I think we ought to add Women's Football. We could probably get more fans to come to those games.

That combo would be the dorkiest thing ever. Depending on the set up we would still have a section that was completely out of the game and had to use Binoculars, like we do now.

Why dont we all send RV emails and phone calls and threats (not really) letting him know that we all want a baseball team and fast. Squeaky wheel gets the grease. I am in total agreement that UNT needs a Baseball team very badly. I think the fans and alum will love it. We could put the proposed stadium right where Fouts is now.

If we score 2 touchdowns against OU then I will shave UNT on my chest and TD in my butt hair

I hope you dont play poker. If so you might want to save your time and just give away your money. But I will say this. I am sorry that TD had to come into a schedule like our where his first ever game will be against the Sooners. He will have his hands full thats for sure. I bet he cant wait to get that game over with.

Sorry I know this isn't about football but I just wanted to let every UNT fan know that UNT will be swimming against TCU this Wednesday (1/24) at 6pm at the Rec center. Admission is free just tell them your there for the game or go in the back door. This has always been a good rivalry but unfortunately TCU has taken the prize the past few years. UNT has pulled in some good recruits this season as well as a new Head Coach and they are ready to take the victory away from TCU. I know swimming isn't as exciting as football but I believe we should support all UNT sports. It would be great to have a bunch of fan support at this home meet. I hope everyone can make it.

Hey just wanted to let every UNT fan that UNT will be swimming against TCU this Wednesday (1/24) at 6pm at the Rec center. Admission is free just tell them your there for the game or go in the back door. This has always been a good rivalry but unfortunately TCU has taken the prize the past few years.

It would be nice.....but seriously. We would be lucky to score a TD. When we play UT I was just happy that we scored.

My vote goes to the Colts if nothing more than I really liked what the Pres. and Head Coach had to say when they received their trophy. They seem like really humble men and you dont find that often. Did you know this: Jim Irsay (also known as Jimmy Irsay) graduated from Southern Methodist University, Dallas, TX in 1982 and is the owner of the Indianapolis Colts of the National Football League. Interesting...

Is that a shirt or a nighty? Either way it looks exactly the same except the UA logo on it.

Thats sweet. Now all we need is a QB to throw to them and an OL to protect the QB.

Oh man I'm hungry

It could of been worse, he could of been on a huffy with pegs and a baby seat

That makes sense as to why no one was talking about him. I watched him play against Westlake, he's got some skill. He threw up then 3 seconds later threw a TD. Wonder if he'll have interest in coming to play for his pops at UNT

Hey maybe I'm way behind but does anyone know what the word is on TD's son and what his plans are for college?

Is that your body in the picture

Sorry I cant help....I am just glad that it is sold out

Amen! WAC=good, SBC=bad, AnyotherConference=good, SBC=bad, ProNewConferencePeople=good, Others=bad

Yeah I'm sure he is. Im not throwing out statements, but I want to see facts. Adios!

THE ABSOLUTE BOTTOM LINE (and I'm done) is that UNT has 0 fan support. NO ONE wants to come to the games when we play crappy teams. That WILL NOT change, whether we win or lose. The SBC is not going anywhere and it will ALWAYS draw the bottom dwellers. I had hoped that UNT would be going somewhere athletically, but after reading what everyone has posted, it is clear we will always be a no name school in a crappy conference. I'll tell everyone what: In 2 or 3 years when UNT is stuck in the same position (without fans, support, low attendance, and spirit) or worse (which I predict if we dont get out this conference) and you all are still making excuses for why we are where we are, think back to the words of Daddy Dumpsalot "WE NEED to get into a new conference and fast, no more turning down bids". The fans will THEN make the commute from Dallas once we start to play worthy teams, but until then have fun throwing out shirts and towels and giving away cars in desperation of fan attendance. We need to stop looking into things so much and just support the idea of a new conference. If we cant afford a different conference, I am sure that the people that we pay on the UNT board, the ones that actually know the dollar figures, will not choose the conference. BUT if it comes down to what the fans want....I HOPE we start packing our bags. Why is it we have to get so far down before we realize that something needs to change? NOW, I am sorry If I have stepped on any toes with this thred, sincerely. I am very passionate about UNT athletics and I really would love to see it take off. I am sick of us playing worthless teams when we are much better than that. I want a shot at playing bigger and better schools and I'm sure the rest of the UNT fans do too.

Sorry cowtown but I really want to see the facts, not what some thred rider has posted. Perhaps you could provide a link of the actual attendance falls of Idaho, NMSU, and USU since their new conference. I hardly classify a thred post as factual public documents...lol...You dont lose games because of fan support, you lose because you get outplayed. The sunbelt will NEVER match the WAC. Mark my words NEVERRRR. This conference is doomed.

Sorry, I couldnt finish I had to leave work.

I appologize. Im not ignoring your points. But I feel like youre points are.......not valid

A near wash. How on earth do you know that? Truth is you, nor I, nor anyone else knows what the revenue increase would be or even what he costs would be. That excuse has been way played out. This shouldn't even be address because we all know that no one EVER goes to watch FIU, FAU, ULL. Why? Because no one wants to travel to watch us play no name, crappy teams. Media coverage, I have been to 1 UNT that was filmed on ESPN 2. ONE. 'Reporting in local papers and newscasts'? What are you talking about. What difference would it make if we were in a different conference or the SBC? I do agree that the kickoff times are better. But the only ones concerned with that are the people going to the games and these days aren't many. If the WAC gets 'cherry picked' in the near future, then right after that the CUSA and then the SBC will also get 'cherry picked'. The question is whether or not we will be one of the chosen. Oh wait we had the opp. a few years ago and chose not to. And now our football program is much better....or is it worse now? You know if Boise st had this same attitude they prob. wouldn't be where they are now huh...I'm not afraid to travel to watch a better game. We have time zone issues with our conference now Florida, Tenn...etc. So pretty much the only reason is increased travel costs. The idea becomes where do you want to see UNT in the very near future? Stuck playing no name SBC schools or playing schools people have heard of. A better fit for UNT fans, future, alumni or a better fit your wallet and time to travel? The question is 'who has better football program', which leads to better football teams, which leads to better competition, which leads to more recognition, which leads to increased attendance (games and school), which leads to more school spirit, which leads to a better name for UNT alumni, which leads to better jobs, which leads to more money for athletics........This is the cycle we need to get into.

And if the Big 12 wasnt full....we for SURE wouldnt be up for a spot in it....I guarantee you that.
