15 is a ton, although this season clearly had enough standout moments to fill the list. I’m just gonna go with my top couple.

 

1. I got to be on the field briefly during a game this year. That had never happened before and was a great memory. 

2. Got to hang out with my wife a ton  doing one of my favorite activities, watching UNT Football. 

3. Managed to go to every UNT home game. This was my first year living in Denton since 2013 and hadn’t been to a home game in years due to living in Amarillo and Kansas City. 

4. The North! Texas! cheer at the LA Tech game. Best atmosphere I’ve ever experienced at a college football game, and I’ve been to a lot. 

5. Managed to get a couple of friends and family to come to some UNT games, which is usually tough.

A lot of my favorites have been mentioned already, but I'll add on:

Nate Brooks's comeback season.  Spectacular play from him this year.  I criticized him a lot over the last few seasons.   All the pieces came together this year.  Proud of that guy & I hope he gets a look in a camp this offseason.

Cole Hedlund's comeback season.  From Arkansas scapegoat to C-USA All-conference kicker.  He was a luxury we didn't see coming after the departure of an all-time great, Trevor Moore.   Cole, we hardly knew ye.

Loren Easly's heartache.  The guy contributed so much in a short time.  Hoping he bounces back for a huge Sr. year.

Quinn Shanbour's epic time to shine.  Last game at Apogee, the setting could not have been more perfect.
