We have 7,000,000 North Texas citizens to get our 31,000 to fill Apogee Stadium. Not sure why that is a problem if we're pro-active enough to solve that shortfall.

Who can Rick V hire to make this happen?

What kind of promos?

As some of you said: Start with filling Wing Zone section first for every home game for starters?

Hire a full department with proven performers who have filled other NCAA D1 stadiums?

?

GMG!

Plumm...I am in 100% agreement with you, but I also think as good a question is...what can the actual fans do to help increase attendance? Well, here are a few ideas:

1) Buy season tickets and actually show up for the games

2) If, for whatever reason, you cannot make it to a game, make darn sure your tickets are in the hands of someone who can attend...do it early...as soon as you know you can't attend.

3) TALK positive about the program to your work associates, friends and neighbors...encourage them to attend a game and perhaps take them to a game

4) Stop complaining about every little so-called slight or problem you have had with the Athletic Dept. over the last ump-teen years. It's getting old and people are tired of hearing about your personal problems...and, those around you and readers of these boards see that stuff and it does no good...take your issues up privately with someone who can actually do something about it...and "get over it" and move on....

5) Join the Mean green Club and the Alumni Association...put your support where your mouth is and where you say your loyalty lies...it helps.

6) Encourage recent grads to get in the "habit" of donating to their university...they can easily start with a recent grad membership to the Mean green Club for as little as $50.

7) Participate in the Coaches Caravans, attend watch parties when you can, wear your Mean Green Colors in public as often as you feel comfortable...show your pride...

OK, I'll stop at seven, but you get the idea...lots we can all do to help, and it is a lot more enjoyable to be positive and help instead of negative and part of the problem. These things will definitely help attendance...you know they will.

Doing all 7 -

bought 18 assorted UNT Shirts for my wife and I, we wear one everyday..

Bought 3 Flags and installed two flag poles, also displaying two Mean Green Garden flags.

I have talked with students at TCJC and DCCC regarding the College Football experience at Apogee. I actually talk to everyone I can about UNT Sports.

      Former Drake Guard Atin Wright commits to North Texas

      I think we now are better at the 1 & 2 than last year. Need to get some PF’s.

      SB vs Wichita State (4/26)

      Agreed. But I can understand them trying to get this game in today. If they do it....WSU can get home a day early....instead of having to stay around. Will try to make it too....won't be there at the start though. Go Mean Green!!!

      SB vs Wichita State (4/26)

      Three really nice touches for Senior Weekend 1) All ten senior players numbers in big white letters on the field. 5 of them in foul territory going from home plate up to 3rd.....the other five going from home plate up to 1st. 2) Having moms and dads of the seniors all throw out "ceremonial" first pitches......to their kiddos. 3) And honoring WSU's 8 or so seniors....by having our players present them all with one white rose and one yellow rose. (their team colors).....very classy.

      The Freak is No More

      What does this mean for the UNT MGRN Football broadcasts? Back to the Range? Move to Indie? Stay on 97.1 The Eagle? https://www.dallasobserver.com/news/971-the-freak-to-return-to-rock-radio-format-fires-mike-rhyner-19223461?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR0zXtMP28HrxpYuJk3RMh5NChxM3J1A8U4HEhIaH8rPvbcbp_x6wXvZbQo_aem_AR8QwvzOxOtEPsHQk2as9eqIjNoX5tSo7au7sOtB67N6Y-5amNndr8ndsyY_VMHXzTWrX5hKgYdBqZPMps4_yhdW

We’ll talk about Brelan’s kick off returns, Toby’s guts, winning at Arkansas and how great Mason was. Reckon the P.A. system will work this year ? GMG ! See you at Apo…I mean DATCU.
