I think you can put an asterisk next to Denver at home as a top 5 team. Even without Rohnert (so they won't be good anywhere else), that team consistently wins at home.

You don't have a "business plan" that you're trying to get us roped-in on, do you? If not, then I would consider coming out to meet folks.

They look like the same guy to me. No drop off in speed or elusiveness from Dunbar when Hamilton is on the field. It's not the typical 1-2 Tailback punch of "Thunder/Lightning", like we might see out of Mosley or Mathis(if he stayed). More like "Lightning/More Lightning". I think having Hamilton step up to give Dunbar breathers without missing a step is a testament to his hard work, and it allows the run-game playcalling to be consistent throughout the game. It's great to have both of these guys!

Observations: The play at the 2:54 mark is a product the defense's respect for Riley's feet. When he breaks the pocket running, the secondary creeps up to contain him...because they have to. We need to see more good decisions like this out of Riley if we're going to win more games. I love the castless Darius Carey (I liked the casted Darius Carey). I'm loving this "GreenCat" or whatever Jub was calling it. All of you out there calling for more Hamilton, you got it. This package works. I love that Alfred Morris was held to 54 yds by the D. Lots of cause for optimism after this game. Hopefully the guys continue to roll this bead of momentum they've created against UL this weekend and watch it grow. FAU may be down this year, but we went into their house, got punched in the mouth on the first drive, stuck with it, and won this game. Surely we can come home and take care of business. GO MEAN GREEN!

Slow day stat-wise for Mr. Robertson. 5 tackles (2 solo). I didn't hear his name called much, which is a good thing! TEAM defense was really good after that first drive.

I'll be on the Dodge train until it leaves and a new train comes in, be it 2 weeks, 2 months, or 20 years...

... in eating Crow for picking against my guys this week. I believe a few others should join me. With that said, I am kinda superstitious. I've picked UNT to win two out of three winable games, and the one game I don't, they pull it off... Looks like the rest of the season holds some poor (maybe even blowout) predictions for the Mean Green from me in hopes of the guys going out and proving me wrong. I'll start my prediction for next week: UNT: -14 LaLa: 3 million

Harry, I'll be expecting my $10,000 check in the mail. The GoMeanGreen.com Report The Domain of GoMeanGreen.com is a website that is cool. It has lots of posters. One time, there were 251 posters on at one time! It clearly has “potential”, which is defined as “aint done nuthin yet”. My mission is to assess the website and deliver a comprehensive report that Harry and his minions can use as leverage to beat up ponyfans.com. I have observed the message board for over 3 years and have come to the conclusion that using humor or large fonts with multiple colors will gain individuals respect from others. If you’re talking trash against UNT, you’re gonna get smacked with -1’s. I have also observed the “cool kids” posters and their ability to take a useless thread to begin with and totally derail it into a fun HOF-worthy thread, only to be fumbled for over 3 months by mods before taking its rightful place in the HOF forum. It is also advantageous to one’s reputation if the poster is able to fly aircrafts and take quality pictures. I have also observed several sporting events and the reactions they receive from posters on GMG.com. My conclusion is that the posters are happy when North Texas wins any competition, and they are irate when North Texas loses any contest. The recent board upgrades are going to bring new interest and vitality to the board. My recommendations to the board are as follows: Start a baseball forum: I believe this is in the master plan of the site. Advertise on sites like Yahoo.com & Google.com, and block any links from TheBleacherReport. Register more firemen, Agean-descent, and female posters, and less Tulsa fans, fact checkers, and porn spammers. Regulate the Conference realignment threads to 1 per year. My hope is that with a better message board, we can finally put a man on the moon, find BinLaden, and extend Johnny Jones’ contract. God Bless GoMeanGreen.com Prepared by: MeanGreenTexan.

Mr. Neinas: "Uh, you should think about starting a baseball program." Rick V.: "That's a great idea! We've actually had it in our plans for quite a while, but just don't have the funds yet." Mr. Neinas: "Your stadium is going to be pretty nice! You should highlight it by budgeting some money towards advertising for it." Rick V.: "Thanks! That's a good idea." Mr. Neinas: "That'll be $100,000 please." Rick V.: "Wow! Thanks for everything Mr. Neinas, would you like to come over for dinner? My wife is cooking her signature Lasagna." Mr. Neinas: "No. I really gotta go. The University of Texas-San Antonio is anxious for my services. Fare thee well."

Did you try your imagination?

UNTFlyer, What did your discussions with Mr. Neinas entail?

I wasn't talking about color! I mean this thing needs to have wind turbines coming out of it's rear-end so as to keep from ruining the environment. I've heard that the University of Minnesota has a Silver LEED certified "DeathGopher", but we're looking for the first Gold LEED certified machine complete with emissionless missiles.

Fire Northeastern's S&C coach!!

Guess what? Everyone in the metroplex knows us as "Little 'ol North Texas". No one is going to know about our Scrappynator until we get some billboards up. How can we get anyone to notice the Scrappynator when the only press we get is from "Negative Ned" Brett Vito, and "Gotta pay if you want what I've got" Troy Phillips?

Uh, Why isn't this thing GREEN?!?! I knew this guy Neinas was out of touch with our university...

Is anyone going to be there for this? If so, can you provide a brief synopsis? Or, is it going to be streamed?

What coach Stracke is doing is pretty incredible. Go Mean Green Golf!!

*Bit through tongue. Tongue now gushing blood everywhere* I really don't like to speculate on a coaching job when we have a coach in place... no matter how poorly the team is doing, but this scenario would be amazing, and should be the 1st choice for RV. As for the other speculative threads on possible coaches, coach Fran is a no-brainer choice if he's willing to join the Mean Green family. The guy is a WINNER. His departure from Alabama was kinda crappy. I think if I were in his shoes (stuck in sanctions and Texas A&M kicking down my door to get to me) I would have left too. His delivery to the Alabama players was awful, but that does not appear to be chronic behavior like Kiffin or Petrino. His only problem at A&M was that dumb newsletter (which there aren't enough rich donors here to even have an issue like that). The guy is a WINNER. He has won everywhere he has gone. Isn't this what we want? An experienced D1 coach who has a proven history of WINNING? Bring on Brad too! Perfect! Everyone knows what happened to a school just down 35 when Mr. Franchione left for greener pastures and the D.C. decided to stick around. Tulsa Kragthorpe is also intriguing. However, Louisville Kragthorpe is not. Major Applewhite is too green. The name would be great for recruiting, but everyone thought Todd Dodge's name was great too. Let's not try this again. R.C. Slocum? Too Old. Too Aggie. Not even realistic anyway, isn't he on A&M's payroll? Other BCS up-&-coming coordinators or position coaches are pretty risky. They could be a home run, or they could bust. We can't afford this gamble right now. Not after the colossal gamble of hiring coach Dodge. Other DIAA, DII coaches are not what we're looking for. Chris Thomsen (offensive mind) may be a great choice for OC under a guy like coach Fran though. *Tongue sewed back on. No more comments like this until the situation arises.*

A regular Benedict Arnold.

I'm not saying...I'm just saying for HOF induction prior to October 1st, 2010 or I'm witholding money from UNT.

Couldn't agree more. You took the thoughts right out of my head. Strumming my pain with your keystrokes. Singing my life with your words. Killing me softly with this post...

Actually, I think his carreer as a HS coach is over. His carreer as a college coach will probably continue. Probably not as a HC though.

We also know he can dig himself out of any situation.

Uh... We have that now. IMO: If we're talking about a new HC, then they would all need to go (unless a new HC were to interview and keep some). None of this piecemeal stuff. Wipe the slate clean.

Are you sure it wasn't Canales calling those plays?
