Maybe we should hand out those periscope mirrors or something to anyone who sits in the first 5-10 rows.....that would be funny to see. Keith

Oh my. Could we possibly start the season with a true freshman under center? Is Ieans still in the mix? As bad as zero experience is there's gotta be some benefit a RS freshman has over a true freshman at such a key position. On top of all that, our O-line is undersized. They all better have speed and excellent technique. Keith

So, it's not unheard of..... Understand what Andrew was able to accomplish, but at least we went into the season with experience at QB. And when Hall went down he could provide some help on the sidelines. Even if Byerly had made the grades he had almost no experience. So, for whatever reason, there was little or no grooming of the successor going on last year. There were opportunities to get next year's likely starter some experience weren't there? Do our student athletes have tutors available to them? It seems to me that you would want to keep close tabs on your borderline students. We were in late on the kid that ended up at Nebraska. Maybe we were putting all our eggs in that basket. Keith

I'm still amazed that we find ourselves in a situation of not having a quarterback on our team that has taken a snap in a D-I college football game (at least I think we are in that situation). Maybe it's more common than I think, but is there any other D-I college football team in the country that has zero experience with all of its quarterbacks? The one thing you hear a lot from players moving from high school to college or college to the pros is, "it all happens so much faster." You need experience to deal with that and we don't have any.

Mean (violence) Green (ethnic - Martians). We'll be next. Keith

Guidelines were not immediately available on which logos and nicknames would be considered "hostile or abusive." Hmmm.....is "Mean" Green considered hostile? What a joke. These people need to find something better to do with their lives. Keith

We are still way undersized on the OL for a D-IA program IMHO. We've improved a lot over the last several years, but need to keep adding height and weight up front. I just remember how big Southern Miss looked during the New Orleans Bowl. Keith

Pre-season and all, but 4 on the 1st team offense and zero on defense....who would have thunk! Keith

.....or needed to! Seriously, for those that have been around for a while, did you ever think we would see this much progress in the athletic department and facilities? Simply outstanding! Keith

There's 9 of us spending the 4th of July in the Melbourne area. We fly the colors (NT Battle flag) where ever we set up for the day. We've drawn a lot of interesting comments from people walking by....from fellow Texans that recognize it, to "I though you were Irish or something." and "what country are you from?" Apparently we made the local news last night (or at least the flag did). We had people come up to us today who said they recognized our flag from the news last night and wanted to say hi. The locals may not know the Mean Green Nation now, but after a couple years of playing Florida teams, they will. Go Mean Green! Keith

If my memory serves me, whitman mayo has been around quite a while. Maybe as far back as the old "Harry's Mean Green" days. Welcome Back. But you know what they say, "the first thing to go is your memory." I forget what the second thing is. Keith

NT up by 1 - (67 - 66) with 5:53 to play. Keith

Man, Nebraska is soooooooo messed up right now. Keith

Go Mean Green!

Kirk or Picard?

I have no response to either of these. Well, technically, I suppose this is a response, but really, I have no response. Keith

Judge to Benjamin Curtis: "Dude, yer gettin' a cell!" Keith

Name: Keith Kelly BBA ('85) and MBA ('87), both in BCIS. Father was in the military so I moved around a lot. Came to UNT (well, NTSU) from Ohio. Worked for American Airlines and Sabre for 12 years. Have attended almost all home games since I started school in 1981 and several away games. My wife also went to UNT (BBA 1990). Moved from Coppell (formerly posted as Coppell Green) to Newtown, CT last year, so only attended the N.O. Bowl this year. I currently work in White Plains, NY. Keith

Sorry for all of you who love our band, but they are desparate and clueless as far as timing and music selection goes. (ok, so I should probably blame the band director or something). They are all probably wonderful musicians and put in a lot of work, but most of the time I'm left scratching my head trying to figure out what they are doing. I know they got a lot of play time on PPV during the Texas game, but from one who actually watched it, it had the air of a car wreck or something that the camera crew/announcers just couldn't stop watching. Sorry, it was just bizzare. Before you burn me at the stake, this is just my opinion and you know what they say about opinions...... Keith
