  1. I'm confused... She was 4th place in her round. How did she make the final round?
  2. The only thing that really bugs me is that time keeping isn't reviewable unless, I believe, it is somehow related to a penalty. There wasn't 1 sec left when the ball hit, there was a fraction of a second left. The clock doesn't stop on an incompletion. It stops on a whistle. There was no time on the clock at the whistle, it wasn't reviewable, and the game was over. Whether that would be fair is irrelevant. The rules are the rules. I'd expect some banter on this in the days ahead. Notice how this game between FSU and Miami ended with an incomplete pass with 1 second left. I believe this is the correct way to handle. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VRKFlNGEhK4
  3. Well, I wouldn't announce it was an ultimatum season of course. Though I suppose it would be obvious. I guess it depends how confident you are in Dodge's ability to sell.
  4. Honestly, its very stupid to fire Dodge this year unless there is a real "sexy" choice available. If we fire Dodge then we'll have yet another throw away recruiting season as well as typical attrition on an already thin team. No recruit is going to get excited talking to the Southern Miss guy no matter how good a coach he is. It would have to be a high profile young unproven pick like Major Applewhite at this point. If the team is terrible again next year then you can fire Dodge mid-season and salvage the recruiting season with a new hire.
  5. No. I would give him one more year to show large improvement. No reason to blow everything up this year. What coach worth having would want to coach here the way things have been going? Whoever we'd get would be a crapshoot so we might as well give Dodge another year. Though if Mangino became available..hmmm... who wouldn't want to see the fat man wearing green?
  6. Yeah, that and he wasn't above lying or at least stretching the truth quite a bit. I still remember the little controversy that occured when one of his first recruits (Wes Allen or Deg Erskin I think) let it slip that he'd been assured that UNT would be in C-USA within a few years.
  7. I'll gladly work 2 jobs or scrap together a living in a shack rather than burden my children and their children with more and more government debt to pay off. This has to end somewhere. If it allows a large economic correction, then so be it.
  8. Well this is sounding worse and worse. Are the people just a bunch of feckless bums and criminals or what? Should I live outside of town? I might have to ask for more money than thought....
  9. It's not a get rich type of opportunity, but they do need professionals. Even out there. I would get a 25% increase to go, but it may be because no one desires to live there. Is there anywhere decent to live within a 40 mile radius? I imagine the cost of living (housing) is quite a bit cheaper, so it might be a good opportunity to horde money for a few years. I don't want to be somewhere too terrible though...
  10. There's a fairly lucrative opportunity I have some interest in out there. However, from what I read the town is pretty miserable. Can anyone confirm or deny?
  11. Oh..A while back the question was raised if the athletic department ever released a 3-D logo as promised. I made my own rendition as a joke. It's pretty nice....
  12. Well cool. I was under the impression that UNT Cheerleading had completely fallen apart a year or two after they won their last championship. Glad they are competing again.
  13. No joke. These guys should consider themselves lucky. I can't think of a single UT assistant coach who didn't pan out.......
  14. Good game. It is the only version I own though I've played other years. Still play it regularly. Not quite as pretty as the xbox version and a little bit of slowdown on occasion, but a good edition. Yes, I beleive there are 1-AA schools, but I don't know what conferences by heart. Nice things about gamecube games is that they are all playable with the Wii if you ever upgrade.
  15. Since most of the team is black in a predominately black sport I doubt very much that Dominique Green is being singled out for being black. If he was Jewish then he might make a case.
  16. I guess I always have to be contrary. I think this tirade was childish. The coach is making millions off this 'amature sport'. The school is making millions off this 'amature sport' There are a bajillion coporate logos all over the stadium. There are 50k people in the stands and tv cameras rolling. If you are going to put the teams and the players in the public eye in order to make money, you can't then go back and whine that not all the publicity is positive. It's a 2-way street. This isn't critism of some volleyball player. It was critisim of someone who the coach and the school put in the public eye to make their money.
  17. As stupid as the response was the question was ridiculous as well. There is no way in hell that 20% of Americans can't find the US on a world map. You think they would vet these questions.
  18. JohnDenver needs to repost the link to the Green Grenade bot so everyone can have their fix.....
  19. I would like to be added whenever you get a chance. Thanks!
  20. I call shenanigans on the 27% number. Assuming they are just included 4-year public schools we are still talking about many schools with large enrollment (>20k): North Texas, Texas, Texas A&M, Houston, Texas Tech, Texas State, UT-A; UTEP. On top of that we have dozens of smaller public universities. I doubt very much that even the largest school (Texas) has anywhere close to 27% of incoming freshman. We may well be at 7%.
  21. Jeez...look how hard she is squeezing those balls. You gotta be more gentle with those things baby...
  22. Agreed, it's a very weird thing to do. RV should have just stated that, yes, this man was contacted and no, he is far from the sole candidate being considered - many of whom would be more attractive to the fan base. There you have it. That would have been sensible. Why would this guy still be interviewed if he had no chance? And why for the love of God embarress him before the interview even happened? I can only guess that there is more to this. I don't think RV is lying but there must be some other purpose in this interview...
  23. That's pretty cold to tell a guy to send a resume while knowing he isn't a contender. Maybe I'm reading this wrong though....
  24. Virginia... I used to have a die-hard James Madison fan for a co-worker about 5 years ago. I didn't know they had gotten good.
