Ya get what ya pay for.....

Hey, young whippersnapper, any idea what our school colors actually are? Maybe that's why us "old guys" like unis that are green and white. Ya think???? And, what makes you think green and white combos can't be "sexy" for the young uns?????? Lots of possibilities for creative minds using green and/or white.

Well, you could switch to the program UNT does sponsor...Air Force ROTC. I know...I know, but I am a proud AF ROTC grad. Got my commission that way and a few extra dollars while in Grad School at OSU. I, too, would love to see UNT sponsor all the service ROTC programs...Air Force, Army and Navy, but that is pretty unrealistic these days. Folks, these are great programs and they do offer scholarships which can definitely help reduce the necessity for student loans. Plus, the GI Bill is there for you as well. Good luck to you Salsa Verde, and thanks for your service....past and present. Appreciate your commitment to serve this great nation of ours.

All I know is the Smith is injured and Pirtle was out a game or two with injuries as well...this from Coach Littrell at the radio show a couple of weeks ago (after the show as he does not want to chat about injuries on the show). And, he did not say anything and "what" injuries. Also noticed Pirtle back in the game against Houston. After that radio show Hank confirmed to me that Coach Littrell does not even tell him "what injuries". Coach simply does not like to talk about player injuries. I can respect that...just wish I knew if Smith would be back at all this season. We need BOTH our tight ends.

Man, I recall (and not too long ago) when folks were saying..."well it is our facilities that are holding us back", "recruits notice that stuff", "we will never get a great recruiting class until we upgrade our facilities, "it isn't the coach, it is the facilities", "the star recruits will not come to UNT because our facilities suck"...and on and on. Well...…………………………..

It seems to be going to happen whether I like it or not....which I do not. Lots of personal reasons and probably too many to go into here. But...there is good news for me. Would cost me a lot less! If and when scholarship college athletes start signing with agents and being paid, I can and will stop donating to college athletic scholarships. That would help my pocketbook a good bit. But, long way to go before this settles out. So, I’ll just wait and see what and how it develops....or not. The NCAA will certainly not be silent on this bill.

Love the new court...glad they added the battle flags!

See my post...almost a full house in the Hub Club...lots just, sadly, stay inside throughput the games! Boo!

And, unfortunately, many of the Hub Club folks never seem to come out to their seats...always making for lots of “empty” seats. Yet, inside the Club is pretty darn full.

Each is a tad different, so tough to "paint with the same brush". But, as you can readily see from the above descriptions of the three different Fall events, lots of "meeting and mingling" with fellow alums, food, drink and, in the case of the Fall receptions, a "State of the University" presentation...usually from President Smatresk (but could be from a different UNT Administrator...VP sort). If you are not a member of the Alumni Association, I would encourage you to join. The events cost a bit less if you are a member, but even if you are not, the cost to attend is minimal.

You will note the absence of a Denton Alumni Chapter function.

So does Omar. Not sayin’.....just sayin’ 🤷‍♂️

Naw....may be an “age thing”. Everyone my age knows exactly what I mean when I say Dixieland Jazz. So, I’m good. If that makes me “ignorant”, I am perfectly happy to wear that badge. Used to go to a place on Mockingbird in Dallas that advertised “Dixieland Jazz”. So, I had a lot of “ignorant company” who were having as much fun as me. But, hey, 😉

Hmmmm....I see. Guess I am “ignorant” as Jazz...other than Dixieland...is simply not my thing. Oh, well....🤷‍♂️

I saw this hit and saw Watson lie completely still. Did not move a muscle. It puzzled me as I saw nothing about the sideline hit that would look to warrant such an injury. I would like to see a replay of a close up to see exactly what happened. Very scary and very unfortunate. I am very happy to see that he has been released from the hospital and I hope and pray that he has a speedy and full recovery. Same goes for the UTSA QB. I hate to see any player hurt.

“Ignorant fans”? Huh?

I did...and that is a change for me. I had completely stopped paying any attention to halftimes at UNT games, but that all changed this season. I now, once again, look forward to seeing what the Green Brigade has to offer at each home game. Now, while I am not a fan of jazz routines for football game halftime performances, it was in my opinion outstanding! The band actually moves and has interesting routines to go along with the music, and they march quite well...also in my opinion. So, welcome back Green Brigade! I have missed you. I look forward to another excellent performance next Saturday!

WHAT??? Since when did they start letting paratroopers do meth???? Sorry...drug of choice must not be meth...crack cocaine perhaps???

Honest question...not counting the band, cheer and dance squads and the team itself...did SMU have more than 250 of its students at the game? That concrete student section they have was all but empty the entire game.

At this point.....do we really think this is an issue? After ACU and SMU??????

My mood is not good! At this point I am super happy I could not go to Cal. Would hate to spend that cash to see another beat down. I will get over it...like I have for the last 50 years or so, but man, I hate going down to Dallas time and time again just to get my ass handed to me by SMU! Getting beat is one thing. I can handle that if the game is competitive and we play well and just come up a bit short. But, to get absolutely run out of the stadium is another matter! Going to take me a bit to get over this one. I hope the team and coaching staff get over it much faster and figure out how to "put out the fire" before conference play. Man, at this point I am not looking forward to seeing Cal or Houston! Yikes! But, my Mean Green and I love 'em. Just going to take a few days to "recover" from this one, and looking at that Doak Walker bobblehead ain't helping at this point!

I find it hard to believe but I must agree with the part of the statement I left in the quote box. Harvey IS NOT a corner...he is a safety playing out of position and it shows! This is most definitely a coaching issue. It is time to get him off corner and back to safety or somewhere else. He is not a corner....period. We saw that with ACU and now again against SMU. It is sad to see the coaches put him in a position to fail...and fail he has so far at corner. Move the kid from corner. I don't care if we put in one of our true freshmen corners. Can they do any worse? They have at least played corner through out their HS careers. This is not Harvey's fault. He is trying his best...he simply is not a corner and leaving a very inexperienced kid on corner with no help is a disaster waiting to happen. Just hard to blame the player here for this dumpster fire at corner.

Nope...personally, I am glad Harrell is gone. Way way too predictable. Going right up the middle three times...every time...inside the 15 is not my idea of creative. It was like Dickey-ball all over again. Nope. I am more than happy with the change. I guess we will all see over time.

Don't blame Dallas for SMU! Ha!

Nope...the Trinity Hall event IS the official tailgate for the SMU game.
