“UNT raised $8.9 million for athletics in its last report for a fiscal year. That total far surpasses the previous record of $4.7 million.” best line in an article loaded with good news.

Better idea. The School and Mason should encourage members of the Cherokee nation to come to games. Give them all free tickets. I think it would be awesome to have a big following of Cherokee that came to every game and adopt the Mean Green. We could have a designated tailgate area where they could do a war dance before each game serving the purpose of pumping up UNT fans while also educating the public of their traditions and culture.

i just got back from our Alaskan cruise. While on the boat I had a UNT shirt on my back and sure enough ran into another alumni. It never fails if you are far away and sporting some gear you will find one.

As a long time board member I have always wondered if the Ray thing was a shtick. If not did they find Ray? If so I am just gullible. Little help here.

Can someone explain to me like I am 5 why Arkansas state is getting so much love? They lost to Nebraska, SMU, Troy, South Alabama and Middle Tenn. with no wins that step out and some are giving them top 25 votes. What am I missing?

Well it is July. Guess it's time to drag the UT game back out.

It's all about the money. I have always said that this program would go nowhere until it found more donors and more season ticket buyers. They have done both to some extent and have increased the student fee. This extra money is proving transformational.

I remember when Mac used to cry about how hard it was to recruit to North Texas. Turns out Mac, you just need to be good at your job. For me this recruiting class shows that Littrell is the complete package. I sure hope he stays for a long long time.

Good read Brett

I have mixed feelings. They are playing by the rules and hid nothing. They are getting an assistant with college level experience and a player that can elevate the program. If the guardian actually coaches I don’t have an issue with this. I chalk it up to outside the box thinking.

First off kudos for reading the BBC as an unbiased news source. The more people that move away from Fox and MSNBC the faster we can heal what divides us. Second I read that article and did not see what you mentioned. Did I skip over it?

Well Joe certainly did not help dispel the rumor of how we became the Mean Green.

The Ballpark is gorgeous. It is one of my favorite and tearing it down so they can fleece taxpayers again is a disgrace. Minute Maid just does it’s job very well. All seats are tight to the field and big open concourses make it a good game day experience. I just wish they still allowed them to open the roof mid game. Everyone loved watching it open after the sun went down.

You don't like Minute Maid? You sir have lost your mind.

I'm not sure what to think about this article since they seem to act like one guys testimony thirty years ago somehow set the bar. Is the bigger story not that temperatures are increasing but slower than anticipated?
