Great win! North Texas faces Texas Tech today in Denton at 10 a.m. CST
-
The last thing Denton needs is another McDonalds. The university is offering well above market price for 1 acre. That IHOP needs to go as well nothing makes me cringe more than seeing that blue roof next to the university seal.
Really? I guess some people can't live without their IHOP or McDonalds.

People want to win against teams they've heard of. That's why the SBC years didn't move the needle very much. We'd beat up on teams no one had heard of and then get steam rolled by the teams where all their friends and family had gone to school. So painful. Then all the teams no one had heard of started beating us too. Ugh.
Time to go hit the bottle.
Yes, exactly! The SBC years were great but let's keep things in perspective. We went 1-3 in those bowl games.

Optimism seems to be the only thing the fan base can hang it's hat on right now. To say that I'm hoping for the best this coming season would be a huge understatement.

What made you come to that conclusion?
Really?! So you think he's going to stay here if he has success and gets offered a Power 5 job? How did you come to the conclusion that he's not going to take that offer?

They all look great and top notch, the feathers are a nice touch. The green metallic helmet has to be my favorite.

Why no update on Arkansas game. Curious as I just dropped off my youngest at ua
North Texas lost 2-0 unfortunately. Arkansas came in ranked #17th in the nation.

Hilarious.....our university moves in a historic direction and some are concerned with whether her son can play football, too funny. In any case as far as athletics are concerned she will entrust the president of North Texas to be a major decision maker, I doubt they brought her in to "shake up" athletics.

I thought it was pretty apparent that SL is using this as an opportunity to springboard to a better HC position? Plus it's not 1 million guaranteed, it's an incentive filled contract.

Smatresek is coming over from a basketball school, that's his strength, I'm not surprised he pushed for that buyout. SL got the extension from the new AD because Baker wants to let it be known he has full confidence in him, which is the right thing to do politically. As far as soccer is concerned, he should lock up that coach and give him more money to start a men's program! Wren needs to fire our softball coach....I believe that will be his first fire and hire.

I'm curious to know what the fan base will consider a good showing by our Mean Green in the season opener. Personally I want to see what this Air Raid Offense can do. I want 60 on the scoreboard!

I think it's well known you're on the Baker train..but correct me if I'm wrong when I say Baker didn't hire SL. The true test will be when SL leaves and Baker needs to hire his replacement. I'm optimistic he is capable of making a good hire. I like Smatrsek he has brought the kind of accountability and management that should be expected from a tier one university.

No word on what will be built on the new property but according to the 2013 University Master Plan more property will be purchased along I-35 in the future.

First game is tomorrow against Incarnate Word. Good luck ladies!

It's good to see former athletes come back to North Texas. I would like to think It shows current athletes that the university doesn't forget about them after they have left.

Perhaps her contacts within NASA will help the university gain far greater research opportunities for the faculty and students. North Texas is trying to further develop and improve its research programs, maybe they had that in mind with this hire. Purely speculative on my part.

Unfortunately if we do very well this season and Klinsbury gets fired, I could see him moving on to Texas Tech.

It looks like the BOR wanted someone that is an experienced administrator with experience in working with other agencies both commercial and in government. It's interesting that they chose someone from outside of the area. I wish her the very best.

It seems like a lot is riding on that SMU game
-
These predictions were the most interesting to me:
3. The backup quarterback situation will be a talking point.
Can Fine stay healthy through the whole season? Let's hope so, this team will go as far as Fine can take it.
4. UNT will win at least one game it's not supposed to
Let's hope it's more than just one but beating SMU would be a great start to the season.

I think it's really important to distinguish some key points here:
- The Keuhne Speaker Series is not in any way related to the UNT Lecture Series, and is not funded by student fees in any way.
- Ernie donated the funds himself to start it and subsequent donations and event sponsorships have kept it afloat.
- The whole series is essentially a Who's Who in America list for Conservative-only speakers.
All that said, I've never understood the point of the Series. No scholarships are generated. No academic or athletic units funded. This whole thing seemingly comes across as a way for Ernie and Brint Ryan to have their own fun Conservative fundraising club that benefits... (?) I literally see no benefit to the University in any capacity.
And then this announcement is just so tone deaf to be comical.
Thank you for the explanation

USA has a 43-35 all time record, played in a bowl game in 2014 & 2016. They're playing a home game against Okie State this year. They aren't a blow over team. Yes they play in the belt, but they are on the better end of belt teams imo. So yes, I would rather play a medium belt team than a terrible in-state team.
All relevant points but this series is scheduled for 2024 and 2025. Is this the reason why they cancelled the Army series? Time will tell I guess but at least the Army series had national recognition.

Chamberlain leads North Texas past Tulsa in season opener
in Mean Green Athletics
Posted · Edited by Salsa_Verde
Yeah They play twice today. Tough loss to Tech, hopefully they're not too burned out tonight.
