Stadium Vote Results

greenjoe · October 15, 2008

Thanks to TRUD 1966, I know the voting ends at 5:00 pm Friday. Now, when will the vote count be announced ? With this being a nearly total electronic vote, I should think the results are available at the push of a button. So when and where will the tally be announced ?

I'd wait on the North Texas Daily, but I'm afraid they'd bury it on page 3.

Go Stadium

GO MEAN GREEN

If it wins, the editors of the Daily might not carry it at all!

Now I know where any future donations to the school I may make will NOT go.. Journalism. I am an RTVF grad, so hopefully they aren't participating in this kind of unbalanced reporting. IF so my money will avoid the hands of RTVF as well.

Thanks Mean. I guess that's my question. I want to be one of those people. Or at least be notified via GMG from one of those people of the vote.

Maybe a fireworks show brought to you by Pepperhead.

Or light the Administration Building tower Green like we do for other wins.

I wouldnt worry about it. An annoucent like that is going to spread in literally 3 minutes via text messeges, to emails, to here. I'd guess we'll know within 30 minutes of the votes counted.

I do my best to make sure we (NTTV) give all the facts on the referendum, and I believe we have. But for full disclosure, all of us at NTTV Sports and the vast majority of NTTV are in full support of the stadium and the athletic referendum. A better program is much easier (and more interesting) to cover.

I love some of the against arguments here.

Before we can think about spending money on a stadium, why not pay a coach that will lead to team to a winning season. This is so shameful that we are trying to give the university an materialistic exposure versus leadership exposure. I would rather pay the $10 fee to get a good coach that has had NCAA experience, in order to give us National recognition and the opportunity to play in a Bowl game. Now that National expsosure!!!!!!!!!! Remember our recent Sunbelt Basketball Champs????????? Did they do it in a brand new arena????

Classic.

The SuperPit's fundamental design was far, far superior to what Fouts was originally built with.
