I went with illuvius' gal and we had a great time. There were about 125-150 there, a much bigger turn out that I would have thought. We got a pink t-shirt and a car flag and some other goodies from State Farm who was the sponsor for the event. Coach Dodge spoke and did a Q&A with his wife about the upcoming season and team as well as their personal life. There was a players pannel with some very good questions asked such as "Why did you choose North Texas?" The answers ranged from "It was close to home" to "They were the only school that really took interest in me and treated me really well on my recruiting visit" to "I was shown around by Andrew Smith." We were given a quick tutorial on offense and defense, but it was very basic stuff. It was a very lively crowd with plenty to drink! They players were awesome and seemed to have a great relationship with Coach Dodge already. Coach Dodge was asked about how he was preparing his team for the OU game and his response was, "I don't know how to coach an underdog team. This is not a bodybag game, this is an opportunity game." So I am very excited about this season. See you all at the BBQ!
