EDIT: With the end of softball season comes the look-ahead to the 2024-25 academic/athletic year. The 2024 football season will feature the first game of a (planned) home-and-home with Texas Tech on Saturday, September 14th in Lubbock.

If you're interested in joining our group, staying together with other Mean Green fans at the same hotel, and other weekend group activities, please fill out this interest form to help me out: https://forms.gle/TBUiDfBsrH5bQTT16

Group tickets will range from $27.50-$37.50 with no extra fees in the two sections (117/118) we're starting from and group tickets are already available for purchase. I just need at least 20 commitments to get the group discount.

Just a reminder of the type of "takeovers" we had on only 1-2 weeks notice earlier this year:

Original message: Your fellow group organizer here! Who all for sure is going to make the trek up to Lubbock for the 9/14 game at Tech? I'm still awaiting RFPs for hotel discounts, but wanted to go ahead and buy the initial group of 20 tickets needed to get the group discount within this week or next.

The red ($27.50) and gold ($37.50) areas are the only sections opened up to group sales. We're looking at 117 and 118 to start out with. Let me know if you're interested and would be willing to get your tickets now. Trying to do it early before the group gets too split up.

Love what you are doing, but would it be worth checking with our AD to see how they are doing tickets for this game?  Do they get credit or earn some revenue based off of what they sell?  Just curious.

I have checked with the AD a couple of months ago when basketball season was still in session. I was told they make a very slim margin on tickets. Plus like most opposing venues, the visiting team (and band) are given isolated sections in the corners. For Tech, they're giving our AD tickets in Sections 110 and 111, which is weird considering our team will be on the east sideline.

I think they don't want opposing colors to be on the TV side.

Thanks.  Again, I appreciate what you are doing and will be in for some tickets to that game for sure since I live out here in no man's land.

Absolutely! If you want to purchase with us let me know how many.

Back when I started doing the group outings with basketball, I didn't think I'd expand this to football because of the allotted tickets that benefitted UNT, but because of seat locations and higher prices I thought why the heck not.

Ultimately, I don't want to compete with what UNT is doing, I just want more green at the game.

For these road games at South Alabama, Texas Tech, and UTSA I've been prospecting through LinkedIn for people who live near those areas and have been having good conversations with getting those people out. The end goal is not only to increase engagement but also try to drum up interest in establishing more alumni chapters.

Love how it says "UNT Section".  You can bet it will be the worst one in the house.

Based on the seating plan below and what I could find on their website, our section could be any of the Light Blue.

From my conversation with the ticket rep, the "UNT Section" is 110-111, which is weird considering our bench is on the opposite sideline.

Group discounts are limited to the purple, light blue and green areas. I was probably aiming for Sections 117-118. But 119, and the gold areas in 118 and 120 are not available for group sales.

Love this.  I’m taking my 2 boys out there and we are going with their granddad(ex-wife’s stepdad)who is a tech alum.  His company is a sponsor so we are supposed to get field access.  I told him that I’m wearing green, but I’ll get 1/2 and 1/2 shirts for my boys.  Lol

 

so keep an eye out for a in fan on the tech sideline.  I hope we show up so everyone on the sideline doesn’t just feel sorry for me.  Lol

      I think that McCarney’s exit just burned the decision makers here to ever pay for a name coach with actual experience as a successful FBS coach from a previous stop. Like I’ve always said, this place needed a head coach that would galvanize the entire UNT Family. Make us want to follow him because we have seen that he can do something. Make us believe that we aren’t just some spare place on the CFB map, like most media and fans think outside of gmg.com. But the portal and NIL sort of burns all of that up now. When you can’t keep talent because it can be bought away at any time, the coaches at a place like this can’t afford to miss on recruiting, development, or coaching hires. It makes it really hard to build momentum in any fashion, knowing that your players and coaches are bought the moment that a Power School calls.

      I also give to the collectives and would like my money back from every athlete that transferred. I know it doesn’t work that way though. After losing ALMOST all of our good players from the football team AND basketball team to the transfer portal, I do question why I continue to give to the collectives. The answer, I guess, is that maybe it helps us attract new players to replace the good players that we used to have who left us through the portal. That is the only reason I am still giving. Anyone have any other reasons to help justify it?

      Name an upside...any. I wanted litrell gone more than most, but we settled for thrift store coach instead? Sure, he speaks instead of mumbles, but there are no results

      I have given to Harry's collective as did others and still saw our roster decimated by other poaching schools. I realize this is a necessary evil, but it's discouraging to give hard earned money when an athlete is going to leave regardless.
