OK. I'll take the beating. I don't see anything wrong with this. If folks want to wear UNT gear quite often (like I do), I don't want to be wearning green every day of the week. I think this is smart so that the public will have a variety of colors to wear when they are coordinating their clothes for the day. The important part is that it says North Texas or Mean Green!!

I do think some of ya'll can afford to be more open minded about all of this. I have absolutely no problem with UNT using different colors to compliment the hunter green and white. Having a wardrobe full of nothing but solid green, white, and or grey is monotonous. My problem with this is that 1) obviously the sellers, the marketing team, and..well everyone involved has their own idea about what we are. So no one is on the same page and it's just a mess. 2) they haven't gotten the correct green implemented (still seeing the toothpaste green around?), and 3) blue and green really are ugly together lol IMO ROFL OMG WTF BFF?

Oh I couldn't agree more. When I'm trying to convey Mean Green nothing says it quite like cookie monster blue.

Well I suppose you will be going over to buy one these then. I for one, don't mind wearing Green or White or even Grey all week. Basically the only t-shirts I wear are either green and white, for the Eagles, or red and white for the Hogs, with Grey mixed in and I don't mind. I for sure don't wear shirts like this one being discussed.....but you if you want to wear them go ahead. You can also pick up a UNT pink shirt for the girl in your life at the same store.

Yeah - I do understand the need for alternative colors for marketing. But to me, it's not JUST the color, it's the 2 wrong fonts as well. Put together it's just an ugly shirt thats representing our school.

Theres going to be a ton of these on the discount table.

Very true, that logo and fonts do not go with that shirt. I think with the right fonts and logo maybe in white might look good on that color shirt, it looks really bright maybe the picture. There are some powder Greens and powder blues out this season that may look good.

      So, if we are looked at that way by those guys, which is weird since the AAC doesn't look at us that way, but if they do and can create a level of play that is above G5, but not included in the Power Structure of these 40 behemoth programs, how many teams do they let in? In your view, Boston College, Syracuse, Wake Forest, Northwestern, Purdue. SMU, UCF, Cincy, UH, Mississippi State, Vandy, TCU, Baylor, Iowa State, Kansas State, and Cal are gonna just play in their own setup? They have to have more teams. Even if you added 10 more demoted power schools, you'd find that they would need more programs. Well, that would mean teams from the top two G5 leagues, the MWC and the AAC, as well as anyone else that could compete. If you are right and we would be relegated to a Sam Houston, SFA, and ULM level, then football at UNT needs to be discontinued. The drain is too much at that point. You wouldn't have bodybag games to pay for the rest of the athletic department anymore. But I just don't see us falling that low. UTEP or La Tech? Yeah, maybe so. But not us or UTSA.

      This is really sad. He sounds depressed about everything.

      I really dislike the judgement of people based on their followers count. Some people don't care about that. Doesn't mean they don't know what they are talking about.

      You think we have top 80 viewership? Top 80 donorship? Top 80 attendance? "Potential" will be weeded out. Those data points will be the drivers. I have no idea if we have top 80 in any of those. I feel like we don't.

      I’d distill it even further. Only the schools with the richest donor base are benefiting. This is why smu is legitimately able to include themselves in this next rung. They have no fan support, and I suspect that they never will. But they are rich. Obscenely rich. That’s all it takes. If schools can’t come together to create some kind of level playing field, then it’s not really sport anymore. I see no reason to support this current version of college athletics if all it boils down to is who has the most obscenely rich donor to bankroll player salaries.
