Mean Green Football Bandwagon

[MeanGreenGlory]

For those of you who aren't on Twitter or didn't see this...

It's a great conversation from today that I believe speaks volumes of where the program is heading.

The sleeping giant is starting to wake!

We are still calling on @espn_macmahon to join the Mean Green Club!

UNT is on the up and up, folks. These past couple years have been a lot of fun and it's getting even better. Get your tickets and GO MEAN GREEN!

[greenminer]

Awesome. A little love from the local media, and it didn't cost SMU a dime.

[THOR]

That is cool to see...

[Harry]

Really neat to see this. Thanks for sharing it!! GMG!

[LongJim]

Great stuff and great use of social media.

[drex]

When I was working at the athletic dept. I was always told that the media was just waiting for us to get good so they could jump onto the bandwagon...looks like it finally is beginning to happen. We have a lot of media-type alums out there, so there is always room for one more.

[UNT90]

Really really really need a good season this year.

[Ben Gooding]

Really really really need a good season this year.

This. Is. True.

Too much momentum to watch a 5-7 or 6-6 year play out. It would be a momentum killer.

[TheWestie]

Pfff me and Brett Vito were at North Texas games WAY before it was cool...

[10Eagle10]

speaking of Vito, I don't think he's an MGC member...at least his name isn't in my program as one. We need to get him on board

[Mean Green 93-98]

When a member of the media is also a member of the MGC, doesn't that affect their ability to interview recruits?

Yea - I don't think Vito as a member would be a good idea.

[UNTLifer]

I want a shirt.

[Green P1]

Should I know who that girl is?

[JesseMartin]

She graduated around when I did, journalism major, she works for one of the news stations. Somebody put up a link with her on it about a year or two ago, I forget if she's still in DFW or if she moved to Houston or something.

I'm a fan now.

[JesseMartin]

She also parles Franglais.

[Rudy]

Isn't she Sports Lelia, formerly of the Ticket?

[JRock]

Great to see.

[Christopher Walker]

That Twitter exchange is awesome.

[emmitt01]

Isn't she Sports Lelia, formerly of the Ticket?

Yes. Good friend of my wife's. Even more beautiful in person.

[Rudy]

She also had the epic Ticker meltdown when she first started. Instant classic. As I understand it, she's become quite a respected and quality sports personality down there.
