[Brand awareness in college football]

We have an awesome logo at this point in time.  Hope we stick with it long term.  There has been too much changing of the logo over the last 20 years or so in my opinion.  It’s a classic look that needs to remain constant for years to come.  I think we finally got it right.  GMG!

[Javion Hamlet]

Absolutely love it.  Enjoy watching him play!

[Anyone going to the Rice Game?]

Making plans to be there as well.

[Let’s put our money where our mouth is]

Today’s attendance was nice, but with a first place team and all the Alums in our area it SUCKED!  This team is special.  They are going on the road for three and will more than likely sweep.  When they return, we need more butts in seats, period.  You want a big time program, act like it.  A more than a half empty Pit on a Saturday afternoon with a 1st place team ain’t going to get you there.  Anyone can find excuses not to attend.  Respect and a chance to move to the next level takes commitment.  Without the needed support, we will stay right where we are.  Successful teams with losing records draw more than we do.  Look it up.  The time is now, support this team!  

[UTSA (1/23/20)]

UTSA also lost to OU 85 to 67.  We lost to OU by 2.

[Louisiana Tech (1/18/20)]

Great win!!!  Can’t wait for Monday night.  Beat Rice.

[USM (1/16/2020)]

Hammered a bad team.  A win is a win.  Go get La Tech!  GMG.

[ESPN+ Streaming]

My feed was great!  HD all the way.

[Marshall (1/4/20)]

Should be 2-0 after this road trip.  I’ll take 1-1 though.  They let the WKU game get away much like the home game against OU.  Nice win on the road.

[Texas Wesleyan (12/28/19)]

Accomplished exactly what we should have against that competition.  Nice win!  Let’s go get C-USA.

[Texas Wesleyan (12/28/19)]

Hopefully they will come in focused and not sleepwalking.  These games can be dangerous, we have seen it before.  Hope they end the year on a strong note heading in to conference play.

[Super Pit Seating?]

I sit in section 120 and have to remove people out of my seats regularly.  Gets old after a while.  If someone else is in my seats they usually don’t want to move and then we have a confrontation.  I should not have to put up with this.  I am a Police Officer and my first inclination is to remove them myself.  However,  I will give the Ushers or the UNT Police a chance to resolve the issue first.  This happened regularly last year as well.  People need to sit where their ticket directs them to or put out the money for season tickets.  Pretty simple when you think about it.  This happens a lot at Apogee as well.  The other issue I have with seating at both venues are the parents who bring their kids to games and turn them loose to run wild as long as they don’t bother them.

Coach has fired a couple of people.

Did he fire them or did Wren Baker tell him to?

[UAB Betting Line]

Lol.

[UAB Attendance]

I will be there for Mason and the other seniors.  I’am so numb after this season I won’t be able to feel the last kick to the gut.  This one might get REAL UGLY.

[Time For Wren Baker To Step Up]

Wren has been here over 3 years now and in that time we’ve seen a lot of handshakes, smiles, checks being cashed, and extensions. The easy part of the job. Time for him to prove he can do the hard part and make the tough decisions to ensure the right people are in place instead of just approving raises.

Littrell hasn’t beaten a team with a winning record in 2 years and hasn’t won a bowl game, and Mccasland and Mitchell haven’t finished with a winning record in conference play in basketball in the 6 seasons between the two of them. There’s reason to believe that recruiting has improved for them, and there’s reason to believe they can win here, as they all have to some degree.

But real results have to start happening before raises and this internal back patting should stop. More importantly, there needs to be a bar and there needs to be consequence for not performing at that bar. I hate talking like this, but I hate seeing this type of stuff even more. Yes I’ve said over and over that this season is mostly a result of poor roster management and recruiting early on when Littrell took the job, but I also think we’ve been out coached a lot. And paying at the top of the conference for coaches who continuously get out coached can’t keep happening.

You are spot on, but it won’t happen.  Not here.  We will be having the same conversations again this time next year.  Hope i’am wrong but just don’t see it.

[Another Saturday Gut Punch]

Another great day to be a Mean Green fan.  Another loss to a one win team.  Next weeks loss will be even worse as we will say goodbye to Mason Fine.  On a positive note, it’s almost over.  On the flip side, next year could be worse.  

[UNT vs Rice Score Prediction?]

Mean Green  45

night birds     17

[Proud Dad!]

My daughter enjoyed reading all the responses.  This has been a dream of hers for many years.  Found this pic from around 2005 I think.

[Proud Dad!]

Probably not the proper forum, but I have to post anyway.  My daughter just got accepted to UNT!  She will be a Freshman next fall.  She is also trying out for the North Texas Dancers in June and will study Psychology.  So proud to see her following in the old man’s footsteps.  She has been a member of the Mean Green Nation since birth, now it’s official!  GMG.

[Nice Win]

Nice win for the Mean Green today.  They did exactly what they should have done to a 1 and 6 UTEP team.  Special teams got a little sloppy at times, but Fine was on fire!  Go get another one.  GMG.

[DRC: Reffett sees issues across the board for UNT's defense]

If you SEE the issues, then clean it up!  Getting a bit late in the season to just now be seeing the issues.  We’ve all seen it for a while now.

[UTEP 11/9 Predictions...And Go!]

NT - 48

UTEP - 17

Go out swinging!

[Still Something to Play For]

Just realized my mistake.  We don’t play ODU this year.  That’s probably a good thing.  With UAB in for the last game I think we are looking at 5 and 7.  At least if it’s another loss it will be to a team with a winning record.

I can, without a doubt, guarantee that we will NOT lose to ODU at Apogee this year.  Call it a premonition.  

I really do hope you are right.  However, who would have thought we would blow a 28 pt halftime lead to ODU last year.  This program has a history of losing to teams we should not lose to.  It will just be another gut punch if a loss at home to ODU keeps the team from hitting 6.  I’ll be there to see Mason’s last game.  So sad the season has come to this.  GMG.
