  1. Thanks Jim for hooking this up. By the way, PPG is Pittsburg Plate Glass. Not Pittsburg Paint. And I like the name, Pittsburg Paint Stadium. It sounds so colorful. Beat FAU
  2. Harry-Could you add the date of the games to the opponents links ? Also, perhaps put the games on the calendar that lists all the birthdays. Joe
  3. I read today in the D R-C that we are still the 4th largest university in Texas following #3 Houston by only 369 students. I think it's amazing how far NT has come. Although we have a long way to go. Join the Mean Green Club Buy Season Tickets GO MEAN GREEN
  4. But back to the topic I'm pleased for FAU. Theirs is a model we should follow. Start a program 5 or so years ago, and approve construction this week. Good for them. Is the FAU stadium the one that is being called "the house of mean ?" I just can't believe we're sitting on our hands long enough that upstart football programs, that we have yet to defeat, are going to come in and take away a nickname that certainly should be ours.

  5. Great idea Drex. Now if we could just get Johnny to put the team on the "correct" side of the floor, where God intended, all would be right with the world. I like your Blakely idea. As you recall, Blakely also had his lime "Mean Green" cowboy boots and drank from a special Mean Green thermos. (I guess it was water) I have the photo of Blakely grabbing his tie and acting as if to "choke" himself as the refs had apparently chocked making a call. He used to offer his glasses to the refs to help them to see things his way. He is hands down my wife's favorite coach.
  6. Don't forget St. Mary's University The original SMU.
  7. I'd like to open the new stadium against Michigan. We need to win that first game
  8. Is anyone else annoyed that the Regal Eagle still has the un-regal "helwick-era" Mean Green and North Texas emblems on the side ? Two years after their adoption by the University
  9. You left the NT quaterback with the best name off the list. Rick Shaw. If he had been a Heisman nominee the catch phrases would have been endless. But my favorite is/was Scott Davis
  10. It looked like outdoor type theater seats their "section E." I think some special seating would be nice for 50 yard line seating, but I would rather have all seat back seats like we saw at Ford Field at SMU last week. What is the capacity at Bright House stadium and what was the cost? Is Bright House a company ? Answered my own question. Bright House is a cable TV company that serves the Orlando/University of Central Florida area. Hello Charter ? Hello Verizon ?
  11. Is he enrolled ? If so, hasn't his "clock" started to run ?
  12. Seems ironic that "Navy" would rely on the "run." Seems like they would go through the "air." Or recognized shipping lanes. But back to the topic. I wonder if a ticket from the Navy game would get a fan in the Pit for free (general admission, of course ?)
  13. Well, we've played them 4 times now. We're 0-4. It WOULD be nice to get TD's first win against a team that we, so far, have not been able to beat.
  14. Put wheels on Ford Field (he he) and bring it up here. I really liked it. I agree, the pitch needs to be steeper and one other very small complaint. The doors in the luxury suites need to be staggered. That is, the sun needs to be blocked so it doesn't shine in one door and through another and then through the glass. In the first quarter, the sun coming through the glass was worse than the sun before it set behind the press box. I enjoyed the day at SMU. The people were nice and again, I really liked Ford Field.
  15. The Sooner Hotel is about 1/2 point above a dorm room. It's clean, and close, and the sugar cookies at the front desk are hot and fresh. Thanks Boise Join the Mean Green Club Buy Season Tickets GO MEAN GREEN
  16. Big Red Sports/Imports hands those keys out in the lobby. Free with any test drive. Or with no test drive. Thanks Boise Join the Mean Green Club Buy Season Tickets GO MEAN GREEN Look for him Saturday. #85
  17. See you tomorrow FWSooner. I'm wondering when you attended OU and why did you choose to attend Oklahoma instead of a Texas school, especially, if the FW stands for Ft. Worth, you have to travel right past an excellent University ? You'll laugh at this, but we're coming to Norman to win. I appreciate your wish for a hard fought and injury free game. Joe
  18. Go Means Go told me that in the past, there was a shuttle from the Lloyd Nobel Arena to the stadium. Is anyone here going to the Exe's/Advancement/Athletic Dept BBQ. It starts at 2:20 until 5:00. Thanks Boise
  19. The events that led up to a fumbled snap by Billy Joe Tolliver, recovered by the Mean Green to stop a Texas Tech drive and insure a North Texas win in Lubbock. Circa 1988. Where the tortilla tradition was born.
  20. This was on it's way to being one of the best recognized logos in college sports. And by the way, it, according to it's creator, is a sytlized eagle Greatness
