Shed a couple tears today knowing that I won't be able to play for my school anymore, but health comes first. #GMG Forever Mean Green.

I like to thank the
University of North Texas for the last two years! Feel like I wasted you
guys time but I'm thankful for the opportunity!

Wow, extremely classy.

Are these guys among the miscreant crew who supposedly are dragging our season down?

Hopefully Justin doesn't really feel that way and it was a slight exagerration. Always thankful for any man who straps on a Mean Green Uniform.

Also, to Jacob, just let it out man. Will really miss having him on the team. GMG!

Not the topic for this man. Just let it go. There are other topics that the second half would be better suited for. I'm tired of all this squabbling from both sides.

Getting your education is never a waste of time. Proud of these two. Glad to call em fellow mean greeners

+1, and I love that bit they do on KNTU (not even sure what they're advertising or whatever), with the recurring "let it go.....". That fire you started when cooking that experimental dish, "let it go....". Silly I know, but something about it, for me anyway.

I hope both are still honored on Senior night. And can we still not get Jacob's name right, even when we're quoting his twitter account?

EDIT: I see his name was fixed - thanks.

Jacob was one of my favorite players. Very sad he won't be able to play anymore, but he has his whole life ahead of him and this is what's best for him. Thanks for the memories Jacob!

Jacob was one of my favorite players as well. The one thing that I admired about both Jacob and Justin was that neither of them ever met a shot they didn’t like or didn't think they could make. The current roster seems too apprehensive about taking shots and to quote Wayne Gretzky, “you miss100% of the shots you don’t take.”

Will never forget Holmen's performance in Hot Springs last year!

These two are examples of the reason I buy season tickets and belong to the MGC. It doesn't matter who sits in the coach's seat, I am going to be there. To miss a game would be to miss some of their career. To them: Thanks for the memories, and success in life. You didn't waste any of my time.

The "let it go" bit is promoting adoption. You don't have to be perfect to be an adoptive parent.
