Used to love watching the Hayden Fry Show on TV Channel 39 (?) back in the day and with Bill Mercer as the weekly show's host. (As I recall, it came on each Saturday morning at 10:00 AM).

Wish List: North Texas needs a Dan McCarney Show (on TV) and be one of the first schools in CUSA with a Coach's TV show; after all, there are well over 10 million in our viewship from Waco to Longview to Norman, Oklahoma.

This was the theme song used on Coach Fry's show for 6 years. NOTE: Special thanks to SUMG for remembering the title of this Maynard Ferguson jazz hit which preceeded and ended each Hayden Fry Show.

The producers of the HFS used this songs first .20 seconds (give/take) for the intro and end of the show, too.

Loved watching the Hayden Fry show back in the day. Wonder if someone has those shows archived? Would be neat to see them on Youtube.

Is it open to the public?

Yep..and you don't even have to stand outside the door! You can come in and grab a seat. Unfortunately, I will have to miss this first one as I 'll be out f town, but I'll look forward to seeing you at several of the shows this year.

Sounds like a plan to me.

Hey Plumm,

You're stretching the DFW tv market a bit. Norman, Waco, and Longview are all different tv markets. Longview's cable system used to include DFW, but I don't think anymore. The broadcast signal doesn't quite hit Tyler. Now if the show were on FOX SPORTS SW, different story.

Grew up in Longview, work in TV.

EagleD, the MGRN official message board write up used to say that it had a 10 million population listening area when it did have the 100.7 FM Christian radio station which also broadcasted out of either Tyler or Longview, too. (Used to have a friend who was a DJ at Marshall (TX) KMHT back in the day. Is that AM station still in operation)?

That Mean Green official write-up also said at that time that its coverage went all the way into southern Oklahoma. I'll try to find that write-up if I can, but I suppose that is what I was referring to.

Addendum:

Here is this:

Mean Green Radio Network

The Mean Green Radio Network broadcasts North Texas football and basketball games on two radio stations that cover the DFW Metroplex: KHYI 95.3 FM The Range and KNTU-FM 88.1 The Mean Green Radio Network reaches the entire Metroplex and as far north as Oklahoma.

The Mean Green Radio Network reaches 10 million listeners throughout the football and men's basketball season.

With pre-game and post-game shows in every broadcast, North Texas alumni and fans keep their "ear on the ball" thanks to the Mean Green Radio Network.

Each broadcast Mean Green fans are entertained as North Texas alumnus and top-rated sports talk show host, George Dunham of 1310-AM, KTCK - The Ticket, provides insightful play-by-play alongside Hank Dickenson. http://www.meangreensports.com/ot/mean-green-radio-network.html

      SB at Charlotte (5/3-5/24)

      The bats have definitely been the biggest disappointment the past two years. The run support simply hasn't been there enough. Now, I'm still optimistic for the tournament. Last year we won three straight to make it to the title game. But that double bye would have been nice especially if we only have two reliable pitchers right now.

      Why the NCAA model is dying and will be replaced

      You can rebuild a college basketball rotation to contend at a high level in one year. That is just 8-9 players. And if you get lucky with 2-3 absolute monsters, you can make a run in any given season. Of course, then those 2-3 monsters will get poached by deeper pockets and you will have to start all over again. But still, it is possible. But we can’t rebuild a college football two-deep in one year. That’s almost 50 players that we need to compete at a high level. And as has been demonstrated, any time we get football players who have any kind of success in the NIL era, they are gone quicker than you can say “Chandler Rogers”. Another reason it is easier for us to compete in the NIL era in basketball is because that sport is dominated by guards. There are LOTS of talented guards available in college basketball and some of the very best can fall through the cracks and land with us for atleast a season. And while many people would say that college football is dominated by quarterbacks (and that position is VERY important)… what really separates the elite college football programs from everyone else are the defensive linemen. The supply of 18-24 year-old humans who weigh 300 pounds with the strength to take on multiple blockers while also having the speed to run down a quarterback is no where near the demand. And these defensive linemen usually take a while to develop. But anytime a defensive linemen shows a hint of promise, he gets funneled to the highest bidder and that won’t be us. Which means we will never be able to compete with the SEC or Big 10 in football.
