[Season Ticket Change]

I find it hard to believe that they’d make a decision about changing seats without knowing exactly how many seats they’re losing. Those are the three most packed sections in the stadium and you’re going to make a big time revenue changing decision and not know exactly how it impacts your revenue???  C’mon man!

Makes sense. Start this project in the middle of the season instead of waiting a month. 🤦‍♂️

You must not deal with government or construction projects often, much less government construction projects. They’ll be luck to start in April 2025.

I asked. They aren’t saying how many seats we are losing at DATCU. Told me they weren’t sure, which I find VERY hard to believe. There’s no way they get this far into the process of switching for seats and not know how many ticket sales they’re about to lose access too.

Yep.  They are wanting season ticket renewals but can't tell you dates of the games.  That is important to me since I have to plan driving in for the weekend.

To be fair, these 2 things come from separate entities. The university wants us to renew tickets. The AAC releases the schedule. 

[North Texas finally returning to the National Championship]

It’s all fun and games until Texas comes along and money whips your top recruits with NIL money and steals them away. 
 

I really hope the NIL doesn’t find a way to ruin this game like it’s ruining the sport.

Is there not anyway we could get a firm commitment from him?

We already have his commitment. There has been no actual evidence that would tell us otherwise. Just a lot of people speculating since his dad got hired at a school that needs a QB. 
 

Until we hear that UNT is actively seeking another QB or Chandler announces he’s going somewhere else, then I’m going to believe he’s still coming here.

Will this be finished before the season opener?

I’m hoping for it being done by the spring game. 🤞

Are they going to be actual seats or just add the seat backs to the existing benches?  Either way, I'm excited about it.

This statement leads me to believe they’re being ripped out and replaced. Perhaps I’m just making assumptions though to see what I want to see. But I’m sure you could email and ask for clarification. 
 

[Season Ticket Renewals]

I got a renewal notice yesterday.  The email said ticket prices remain the same for next year, but (creatively) didn’t say anything about the MGSF changing. I logged into the ticket site to see if it was in there, but it wasn’t. So I emailed them. Got a reply this morning that the MGSF donation for section 106 will now be $200/seat. I think it was about $150ish last year.

Not too bad in my opinion considering they’re also ripping out the bleachers in the center section and installing individual seats in 104, 105 & 106. 

[Lubbock Hotels]

Their prices and availability are crazy out there.  $370 a night for a Holiday Inn Express and many hotels are already full if you're looking to head out there for the UNT game.  I was really looking forward to heading out there for that game, but I'm not so sure right now.

[Bummed to see SMUT lost!]

[Seth Littrell Sighting]

He’s their new OC. This is his first game in that role. It’s where he always wanted to be. I hope it works out for him.

Ouch. Does Cobbs have any eligibility left?  What about Morris?

Morris has to get a failing grade. 
 

Sorry 5 wins doesn’t cut it for me. It doesn’t matter if it is a new coach or a coach who has been here years.  Standards have to be higher. 
 

This sounds like coach speak. 
 

I think if you could ask Morris (or any other FBS head coach for that matter), they would say something a lot like this and would completely agree with their failing grade. 
 

That being said, what I really wanted to see was a competitive product. It’s been a few years since we had a competitive product in bigger games. My expectation is a product I can watch for 4 quarters and I got that this year. We had some close games in the end that we came out on the wrong side of, but the fun and excitement watching those games was something I hadn’t experienced much of in years, and I’m grateful for that.  This team is close. Real close. Perhaps just a DC away…

Assuming the game is still planned, I’ve been hyped to make this trip to Lubbock since the home and home was announced. Would have a big crew traveling that way if so. 

I already tried to book a hotel and their website wouldn’t let me book it for that Saturday. But I’ll likely be making that trip. 

[I just asked Alexa what time the game was tonight]

And in her response, she called it the Safeway Bowl!  I didn’t think that was a real, official thing. I thought that was just something we called it. I love it!

[Season Ticket Question]

Another vote for 106. This is year 9 down on the front row, right behind the offensive bench and we love it down there. Our daughter gets to high five cheerleaders and Scrappy all the time. Side story: we recently went to a high school game and when my daughter saw the mascot, she asked where Scrappy was, lol. Shes 3 and associates football with Scrappy evidently. 😂
 

We do all the stuff you’re talking about. It’s been a while since it’s happened, but we’ve had a couple occasions of randoms buying tickets on row 2 and complaining that we stand. But F- em! We stand anyway. Mason’s mom and family sat behind us on row 4 or 5 for years and we got to know her a little bit. That was really cool too. 
 

And I’m pretty sure there are some open pockets big enough for 8-12 seats all together, but you’d have to ask the office. 
 

I’d avoid 105 if you want others to join in your fun. In fact, at the last game, we had someone in 106 yelling and heckling section 105 for not standing or doing much. “We see you 105!!  106 is watching you!!” 😂😂😂  I think there’s a pretty good average age gap between 105 and 106. 

[ACU game time??]

When can we expect to see a game time for this game?  

[Some Mean Green Football Love.....from The Dallas Stars]

That’s awesome!  Now can we get Pantera to Write us a song? That would be epic!

[What does it take or is it even possible for a conference to kick out a team?]

There tends to be some realignment moves every 10ish years or so. Would be funny as hell if the ACC gives SMU the boot after splitting their TV revenue for 9 years. 😂

[Anyone else coming to the Hub Club tonight?]

Eric got up on stage carrying a Coors Light. 
 

I’ve met him twice now, and both times he had a drink in his hand. I love it! 

[New UNT Gear]

I’m really thinking about getting one of these black jerseys to keep me warm at a cold weather football game. (Now it’s a football related post)

These are 🔥🔥🔥!!!

[Glad this old former QB commit didn't play at UNT]

Damn. We really dodged that bullet.  glad he wasn’t allowed to prey on our community  
 

I hope those young women get the justice and closure they deserve. No one should ever be treated that way.
