UNT challenges start with a mostly uninterested student and alumni base. In addition to what you said and the Nil, which depressed many, it was also the starting weekend for the State Fair. I do think you are correct. Our general fanbase, not those on this board, for the most part, is not committed to being here for games. Whether watching it on TV is more convenient, 3 out of 4 consecutive Saturdays in Denton, or just having other things to do. But - Man oh man, that offense is getting fun to watch. Things may change.

Why would the Mean Green have fans? Because people who graduated from UNT have a stronger lifelong tie to UNT than any other school that plays football. Because even in down years it's still a good time to be at a college football game drinking beer, eating nachos and yelling obscenities when they run a draw play on third and long. Because the Green Brigade is great. Because we have a Victory Cannon. Because supporting a school you didn't attend more than you support your own school causes genital shrinkage. Everybody knows this. Ask Craig Miller. He knows it better than anybody.

Nice response. I'll keep an open mind. Obviously I still care or I wouldn't be on here. Go Mean Green!

No one is more disgusted by the portal/NIL than me, but North Texas didn’t invent those things. Our program is just playing under the rules we are given. Based on the early results, the portal was a net positive for this team. Don’t know if we can do that every year, but 4-1 is pretty damn fun. Come on back.
