hard to say. I know our allotment was only 250-300, and sold out, so our ticket office referred fans to UNT to buy tickets. I don't know how many purchased through UNT. Rowdytalk's group buy is around 125 IIRC. Add the band, players' families, etc.

I'd guess at least 1000.

Wish it was 7000. :D

Id guess it was 30.

Wish it was zero.

I'm bringing a group of 23 to the game, only 5 of which have ever been to Apogee. #doingmypart

No, you need to be at Apogee.

Those guys are going to have to hop in their van and hustle, if they want to get back in time for their Saturday night restaurant gig on The River Walk.

Yeah, a 1000 sounds good. I'm glad to have opposing teams bringing crowds, honestly.

The local weathermen are doing their best right now to scare people away from any outdoor functions this weekend :(

Yeah, I'm more concerned now. But the NOAA and WUnderground still says 20%, so I'm still feeling positive. Also WFAA is still decently confident. I just think we'll be alright. I am worried about the crowd now a bit.

Tell us about your UTSA marching band as in how long they've been in operation. How many members? Kind of music they like to play? Any YouTube stuff on them?

GMG!

I'm probably not the best person to ask but I'll give it a shot. I believe they're a little smaller this year, with around 200 members. Not sure about their music style. If I remember correctly, the band director had a pretty good resume, but I don't know the details.

Can't get the link to work from my phone, but yes there are a few clips of them on YouTube

I'm pro-UTSA in the football game, but during my time here at UNT... Damn, ain't no touching Green Brigade! The UNT band is legit. What else do you expect from one of the premiere music programs in the country.

But anyway, UTSA's band the Spirit of San Antonio (or SOSA as they're known in the streets) is pretty good for how young they are. Here's some YouTube video of them from last year.


They're still finding their own style, but they do have some fun on the field. In the stands they still need to build their music repertoire. But like I said, they're still growing.

Here are the game attendance figures for this season:

Idaho 21,975

Ball St. 14,747

MT 21,171

Rice 22,835

UTEP 26,119

Right now North Texas is averaging 21,369 a game. 13,500 for the UTSA game will insure us a season average of over 20,000, and will set an all time record. I know the weather is rough, but I expect to see a crowd well over 13,500.

      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.
