Not to open a very old can of worms, but wouldn't it be nice if that emblem was on UNT helmets?

A simple, clean logo, very legible, very identifiable, in the same traditional collegiate style as OU, KU, Nebraska, Texas Tech, Colorado, Baylor, A&M, Missouri, Oklahoma State, Indiana, Purdue, Wisconsin, Marshall, Memphis, UTEP, Houston, Rutgers, Cincinnati, West Virginia, Georgia Tech, North Carolina, Virginia Tech, and on and on and on. Even look at the newcomers from Florida - FIU and FAU. It is a classic style.

Sigh. Maybe someday.

I completely disagree. Especially after seeing all the pics from the Navy and OkSU games, the diving eagle everywhere looks amazing and is instantly recognizable. Using interlocked letters is the biggest cop-out, lame design in all of sports.

Amen!

That NT Exes logo is too busy. It's all crammed together and just looks like a big blob. It would be difficult to see on a helmet. We need to get the SOW on the helmets ASAP.

I would love to see the diving eagle on the helmet, as evidenced by the plethora (yes, I have a plethora) of diving-eagle helmet designs I cranked out in the off-season on this board. But UNT has chosen not to use it, and I'd prefer the interlocked NT to the "North Texas" currently being used.

I wish that was our logo. That or some version of the Eagle with the NT inside in him (or her, for you PC libs) like we had when I first got to UNT (1990...Erric Pegram...good times).

Let me also say this about the old flying worm logo...for many years I hated it. For whatever reason, now I think if we had it we'd be invited to join the MAC. Anyone get a close look at the helmets of the teams in that conference? Bowling Green's logo looks like is was stolen from the opening of the Partridge Family TV show. They could film an episode of That 70's Show at a MAC game. I think the Flying Worm would go over well in the MAC.

By the way...those of you who are entrpreneurial-minded and like running food and beverage joints should consider opening a place called The Flying Worm in the strip shopping center across from Sac-N-Sav. Good location. People see would the words "The Flying Worm" as they exited to get to campus, or if they were just flying by on 35. Trust me this is a good idea. Someone steal it and use it. I don't have the time or cash to do it right now (21 month old boy at home and a girl coming Dec. 14th).

      Former Drake Guard Atin Wright commits to North Texas

      Yes, foolish us fans for thinking players are here in the program and loyal to the school.

      Former Drake Guard Atin Wright commits to North Texas

      It's easier for us to say it's fun since we're not the ones who have to recruit an entire new team every year, but it's honestly exciting to see how the new team is built. The max exodi of beloved players sucks, but in this new age losing guys like TP, Drez, Rubin and Aaron doesn't have to mean a several-year rebuild. Now we can "retool" and even get better. I think this year was more of a gut punch because it felt to me and many others that Rubin and Aaron were Mean Green for life. They've been the constant leaders throughout the past turnover. But even healthy we weren't the most talented team in the conference. And I trust Hodge. The past seven years Grant and Hodge have run a clean program and as much as I love the guys who have played for us, I trust Hodge and Forte will continue recruiting players who will be good representatives of the university, even if only for a year. I also agree we need two more PF's - at least one who can space the floor shooting 3's. Assuming we have at least three scholarships left, so assume we'll see another guard. I'd like to see us bring on one guy who's averaged 18PPG or more. Doesn't matter which position though it'd be a nice changeup for it to be a high scoring big man.

      The last home games of the 2023-24 school year

      Weather has become a factor in a lot of games this season. Wet spring has really made this softball season pleasant. Feel like we had several 90+ degree games last season.

      SB vs Wichita State (4/26)

      Here's what the conference tournament would look like if it started today. Finished 2nd or 3rd is the difference between having to win just two games in two days, or four games in four days. Wednesday, May 8 - First Round Game 1: No. 5 Wichita State vs No. 8 South Florida - 10 a.m. (ESPN+) Game 2: No. 4 Tulsa vs No. 9 UTSA - 1 p.m. (ESPN+) Game 3: No. 6 UAB vs No. 7 East Carolina - 4 p.m. (ESPN+) Game 4: No. 10 Memphis vs No. 3 North Texas - 7 p.m. (ESPN+) Thursday, May 9 - Second Round Game 5: Winner WSU/USF vs Winner Tulsa/UTSA - 12 p.m. (ESPN+) Game 6: Winner UAB/ECU vs Winner Memphis/UNT - 2:30 p.m. (ESPN+) Friday, May 10 - Semifinals Game 7: Winner WSU/USF/Tulsa/UTSA vs No. 1 FAU - 12 p.m. (ESPN+) Game 8: Winner UAB/ECU/Memphis/UNT vs No. 2 Charlotte - 2:30 p.m. (ESPN+) Saturday, May 11 - Championship Game 9: Winner Game 7 vs Winner Game 8 - 11 a.m. (ESPN2)

      Yes, win 2 of 3 in Charlotte and should be at least Top 2. If we do that and there's a three-way tie for first at 19-8, I'd imagine we'd take the top spot because we'd be 4-2 vs. the field, FAU 3-3, and Charlotte 2-4 in that hypothetical. Thanks! Wasn't able to watch that game, just kept up on Twitter.
