Saw something today on the electronic billboard by the SuperPit about the game ball being delivered by skydivers. Anybody else see that?

That is really cool. We did that back in '78 and '79----but with just a regular skydiver delivering the game ball. I'm sure these skydivers will be soldiers, which will be even better.

i'll be there because I bought the plane ticket after the WKU game! My goal is to have one more fun crazy time with all the greenbloods who are living alongside me through this bloodcurdling year.

it will be a special environment and fun until they start running it down our throats.

I attended the Houston Texans vs SF 49's game a few weeks ago and three paratroopers made the jump into Reliant Stadium with the game ball and American Flag. Very patriotic game, with both Bush Presidents there for the coin toss, several "wounded warriors" in attendance, and the halftime show featured the U.S. Marine Silent Drill Team from the Marine Barracks, Washington, D.C. Tremendous event and support from the fans.

We'll be there. I will always support NT, "no matter what." As an old Air Force brat, any time we play one of the academy teams, it's makes the game even more special to me.

Great photos...brings back some great memories of being on that campus. These cadets support their team win, lose or draw. They never give up on their team and the team never gives up on them. Just like all the service academies...West Point, Annapolis, Air Force, Merchant Marine and Coast Guard!

This will be a great day for UNT. I am excited and pleased to be able to be part of it and I fully expect a great game...with the Mean Green winning, of course!

Why do they gotta be "Black" Knights? Why can't they just be "Knights"??

Anyway, racial stuff aside... I've seen the Black Knights show before, and I was not impressed. Very hackneyed, and ultimately just plain dumb.

Not even worth a rental, in my opinion.

Tasty are you feeling OK? Tired?

Just a little weak, I have grown to expect better from you. Maybe you are just down from the lack of winning. Or maybe it is because I saw that stupid movie.

Please redeem yourself.

I'll be there for Ground Breaking thru opening Kickoff...Then I get to drive to the in-laws in Houston for Thanksgiving dinner (I had no say in this event planning)...Get to wake up the next morning at 5:00 to drive back to Flower Mound to change and head to the Cowboys-Redskins game...

Best I could do...

MeanMag can vouch for this...

Back at the last job he and I worked together, one of the regular jokes from our running commentary was inappropriate racial outrage. When someone uses the color to identify something innocuous and not at all racially oriented, we would use the innocent remark to imply that they had some sort of racist secret agenda. Whenever someone mentioned Black Friday after Thanksgiving, or someone driving in a black car... It was always: "Why does it have to be a BLACK ____?"

It's one of those things that wasn't even necessarily funny for any specific case, just a cumulative thing that always made everyone in the office laugh. Sort of like "That's what she said" for our old workplace.

I've never seen Black Knight. My sympathies to you, sir.

OK then I feel better, though the inside joke was obviously lost on me.

Your sympathies are appreciated and needed, I am sure I damaged brain cells (I need all I can get) just watching Black Knight shame on Martin Lawrence.

      Hope he makes the roster. Would be fun to watch him sling it in the NFL.

      How Mean Green softball is shaping up in 2025 and beyond

      In my relatively short time as a Mean Green fan, I don't think I've seen a team so carried by seniors. This weekend's series was the last three games at Lovelace for 10 Mean Green seniors, and all but one (Truitt) was either an everyday starter or saw significant playing time. Here's who will be returning barring any transfers. All classifications are what they will be in 2025. Likely starters (in my opinion) Rylee Nicholson (SR) - UT Cierra Simon (SR) - SS Madison Conley (SO) - UT Tatum Sparks (JR) - UT Elizabeth Moffitt (SO) - C Jodie Epperson (JR) - OF Returning Pitching Staff Skylar Savage (SR) Mackenzie Childers (JR) Kayleigh Smith (SO) Returning, but will they play? Mikaela Olguin (JR) - OF Emma Grahmann (SR) - IF Blayze McNemar (SO or RS-F?) - OF Maci George (SO or RS-F?) - IF There doesn't appear to be a website to find commits for softball, so through social media, here are the incoming freshmen I have found: Katy Brock, OF, Mabank Shelby Buffington, P, Franklin Page (Tennessee) Rylie Harris, C, Forney Gracie Mahoney, P, Macomb Dakota (Michigan) - another 6 footer, like Skylar Ausha Moore, IF, Carl Albert HS (Midwest City, OK) Taylor Platt, OF, Argyle Committed Inbound Freshmen for 2026 Eva Daniels, IF, Forney Laila Nobles, IF, Pearland Addie Perry, UT/C, Aledo Love the Metroplex talent we are bringing in. Forney's currently the #1 team in the state. But looks like we still have a handful of spots to fill next year. Going to need to improve the hitting and power. Maybe we can land some home run threats in the portal who want to get closer to home. I'll post stories and highlights of the commits shortly.

      Hopefully after a few more years we will all be more accepting of heartbreak. I got used to it in high school.

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