More to these kind of gigs than meets the eye; especially with some of the high rollers in attendance at our fabulous IPF. 

Great PR & Improving UNT’s future OOC home & home schedule comes to mind for some of us passionate college football novices who live on our dreams for our favorite school.

 GMG!

 

Yep, all about the bigger picture.

I wonder what hotel they put them up in?  Wish we had been able to get the on campus hotel and conference center thing done!

It’s technically the Hilton Embassy Suites - Denton Convention Center. 

It’s an excellent, albeit pricey convention space.
