  1. Or, if that's too much for you, but you would join for less and are a recent grad, try the young alumni program. You may be able to park in the red/blue lots for about the same as you would spend for each game parking at Fouts. Same privs. Much cheaper. Contact Jessica Hulsebosch in the athletic department.
  2. Good question. I dunno, but I'm not too bummed. He's certainly not the headliner of this class. Hall would be, so maybe the AD is trying to put Booger & Hall in different classes.
  3. Capper seems to talk without really thinking things through quite often.
  4. But that lot is significantly smaller, so you'd better get there early.
  5. I would like to know why there are quotes around "showmanship"? They will win the "showmanship" part, as opposed to the showmanship part?
  6. Maybe if these expectations could be clearly defined by you, others may be able to understand where you're coming from. Otherwise, as a bystander who has not chimed in on this thread yet, you're just a guy dumping on the team's efforts. You must admit that LSU is far superior to any other team we'll be playing this year. Right? Despite your disagreement with what it stands for, LSU was ranked #3 in the preseason poll for a reason. They are VERY GOOD. As a UNT fan, you must be able to find something this team did well in Baton Rouge. Right? If no, did you watch the game? Did you see the O-line's efforts? Did you see Jackson's hit? Did you see Chancellor? Did you see Whitfield intercept a pass? Those are all encouraging plays. Do you expect this same result against TX Southern? K-St? Houston? Any Belt school? The Mean Green lost a game and is now 0-1. I don't think anyone is happy or excited about that. Bottom-line, this is what it's about and of-course McCarney, being about the bottom line, is not happy with 0-1. But that does not mean the fan base should not look for what the team did well in the game and look forward to those advantages against other competition. That's all we're doing here. Can you find anything encouraging about the LSU game?
  7. What is the path that Boise St. took? What is the path that Snyder's KSSt teams took in the late 80's - early 90's? What is the path that Fresno St. took in the 90's? Schiano's Rutgers teams in mid 2000's? Patterson's TCU squad? Heck, what is the path that coach McCarney's IASt team took in the late 90's - early 2000's? These teams went from the bottom to solid contenders. If those teams played a top 5 team every year in their OOC slate, then full steam ahead! Let's keep going now that we have the coaching staff in place to do this. If not, then what the heck are we doing getting our rears kicked for no reason?
  8. Right. If that is a blitz that they use often and usually works for them, then that is a good sign. If it was a blitz that the D-coordinator dreamed up earlier that week and used against UNT to see if it works, then who knows?
  9. Unless LSU was not going all-out and experimenting with defensive schemes, then I am looking forward to the offensive trenches being dominated by the Mean Green for the remainder of the season (including the K-State game).
  10. YES! Take this, then put McCarney's face on there jibjab style. Bingo. Winner.
  11. If we make it very close or win, OR get blown out, then yes it certainly will. If it's a 5 - 15 pt loss, then I doubt it really shows us anything new.
  12. Very thankful for your boy's time here. He flew under the radar, but was a rock. Now that he has graduated, I hope you're Mean Green fans for life. But, in this scenario, you pull for your alma mater. Then, go back to rooting for both.
  13. Honestly, I don't think this week will tell us a whole lot either. Houston. That game will tell us a lot. Troy. That game will tell us a lot.
  14. There's gonna be a Booger on the wall in the HOF. As for the exclusion of Hall, we can't just put them all in at once. He's a lock for next season. You have to spread them out a little so that you have great players to put in each year.
  15. Zach Orr was in on 10 tackles including a tackle for loss. Coach McCarney lauded his performance yesterday on the coaches show.
  16. And the next highlight @ 4:17 shows just how fast that LSU defense is. If that were against any belt team, Byrd would have had at least 20 yards. Instead, you see him 5 yards past the line of scrimmage with plenty of room to run, then out of nowhere, 3 LSU defenders are on him and he's down 5 yards later. Crazy.
  17. Mine didn't either... I thought I hit submit... oh well.
  18. Ah yes. Good to see that my prognostication skills are still sharp.
  19. Oh. In that case, incomplete pass.
