  1. I'd like to take the Rector (Minister) of my Church to the Middle Tennessee game. But I don't want to move from my Club seat or pay $75 ea to get him and his wife into the Club Level. If anyone knows they aren't using their Club seat for the Middle Tennessee game, I will see that they are used. GREENJOE
  2. This topic seems to pale with what's going on in State College PA., Central Florida, conference shuffling and whatever else, but as I was driving to an event at the Gateway Center this morning, I saw, for the millionth time the sign pointing to North Texas Blvd that says "N.TEXAS BLVD." And again this morning, it annoyed me. Perhaps I am worrying about something that doesn't matter, but I'd like the other 4 letters added. Unlike the "E" on I-35E or the "S" on S. Elm Street, NORTH is half on the name of the 3rd largest university in our state and I think it should be spelled out. Even though to add the "orth" is going to require a larger sign surface. Too trivial ? Should I worry about the pedestrian bridge or how the waterless urinals will be disposed of ? I'd appreciate your thoughts. GO N TEXAS GO MEAN GREEN
  3. Who is it that you want to play ? And who in the MWC is going to get our fans more excited than Middle or UL Monroe ?
  4. Some kids want to "get away" to go to school but at the same time, want their families and friends to be able to see them play on Saturdays. Of the umteen high schools in the Dallas-Ft. Worth area, North Texas is going to be the exact fit for these type players. Out of Mom and Dad's sight but close enough when they want Mom and Dad to see them excell. And some kids have to go far away to find this to be true. Welcome aboard Chase. You're going to look great in Green. GO MEAN GREEN
  5. How does one submit questions for the "Face Time with Poppy" segment ?
  6. I would be there if the kickoff was at 2:00 AM, but this time change is great for me. That day, my Kiwanis Club will hold our 29th Annual Turkey Roll Bicycle Rally. So, if one were wanting to do a organized bicycle ride AND go to a North Texas game, we're in. GO MEAN GREEN
  7. I'd like to see a Mean Green character trying to climb onto the CUSA ship.
  8. LSU didn't score any more touchdowns against Alabama than North Texas did.
  9. This is such a warlike thread. Attack. Killing. Can't we all just get along ?
  10. Does anyone remember this guy ? He was a LB and played his senior year at Guyer last year. Does anyone remember him or anything about him ? Was he offered here ?
  11. I don't know much about CUSA football, but some teams, Rice, Tulane, Memphis, and UAB I think we can compete with today. Tulsa is very tough. I don't know about UTEP but a better conference means better teams. Right ? So, if we play better teams, there should be no surprise if some of those teams pound us. At least, hopefully, for just a little while. We need to win at whatever level and in whatever conference we play in. GO MEAN GREEN
  12. The most compelling thing concerning this Coack MaC said last night was that he wouldn't put someone on the field so that North Texas could lose. Son of a friend or not, I truly believe Coach MaC wants to win. And I also believe he'd sit his own son if another player gave NT a better chance to win. Next game, start a chant, "We want Ozzy," and see what happens. And if a big guy in sunglasses comes into the stands, remember what I said above. GO MEAN GREEN
  13. At the coach's show each Monday night, Coach MaC has said over and over that in practice, McNulty does a better job. And that while he's aware of some guys playing better than they practice, he doesn't believe it. And since practices are closed, for good reason I think, we must believe that Coach is correct in his quaterback assessment or that he is not being honest. Because I have not reason to think otherwise, I have to believe that McNulty practices better than Osborn. I hope Derek Thompson is 100% quickly because our offense drops a level or two without him. GO MEAN GREEN
  14. And according to Coach MaC, we lead the Conference as the team with the fewest penalties. As far cry from previous years. GO MEAN GREEN
  15. Coach set a cup of coffee down and forgot about it. He glared at the cup for 3 seconds and it was piping hot. No sugar, please. GO MEAN GREEN
  16. Dr. Seuss is correct. I'm not in a fraternity and I don't know what the frats do for the school. What do frats do for the University of North Texas ? Could then, one of the things frats do for the school, they come into the Stadium and be counted ? Their tickets are already apid for. The ony effort would be to pick up a ticket prior to game time and walk from the tailgate area into the game. This could be another thing frats do for the school. I really am not picking on fraternities, but it is they that put their greek letters up so that I can read them from Apogee. I assume they are displaying their letters because they are proud of what they are doing. They certainly wouldn't display their name if they were not proud. Right ? GO MEAN GREEN
  17. I think we travel fairly well. Especially when there's a bowl game to b played. I think many bowl sponsors would look at NT as a pretty good payday. Who was it that predicted North Texas and Southern Miss (I think) in a bowl game ? And what bowl game was it ? 6-6 ? Sounds good to me. GO MEAN GREEN found it. It was the BBVA COMPASS BOWL played at the Liberty Bowl in Birmingham, AL.
  18. Of course, I realize that the frats aren't the only ones that party whhile the game is going on. I simply don't see 8 foot tall letters saying, CHESS CLUB or HANGERS ON. The greek letters I see are as much as advertising that they don't/won't come into the Stadium. GO MEAN GREEN
  19. As I watched a great game last afternoon, I saw hundreds of people still tailgating and those that I saw were partying around big greek letters. The only ones I could make out were the Kappa Alpha "KA" letters, but there were at least one more I couldn't read. Why aren't these UNT Clubs going into the Stadium and supporting the team ? Students have already paid for their tickets, right ? Did these clubs have hundreds of alums that didn't have tickets ? If so, why not ? I know many things have been discussed in years past about getting tail gate groups into the Stadium. As my wife and i walked toward our seats at 3:30 (too late in my mind, but we saw the kickoff), we spoke of what might encourage these 'non-fans' into Apogee. How about a annoying bell and group of students walking around reminding people it's time to fold up the tent and head to the game. Could these greek clubs e contacted and asked to close down their party and go to the gme ? If asked,would they respond in the spirit the request was made ? I hope these non-participants will join us and help this team win this year. GO MEAN GREEN
