Wonder when it will hit the market. Did you pull that from Nike's site?

I thought someone on this board made that shirt & posted it several months ago. Thought they said it was a no go after talking to UNT AD

I found it on this tweet. It is a post from awhile ago but I didn't here that they had not approved it. Even if Nike isn't doing it I sure wish they would offer something like this for the fans to wear.

Harry look at his tweet from 8pm today. He is full of it... No shirt.

My bad didn't catch that. Still wish like heck they were offering something like this for the game...

Why on the earth would UNT or the AD not allow this shirt to be marketed? Can you imagine Apogee glowing in that killer green on game day? Awesome.

Someone had better make this freaking shirt

I would even be ok with using the forest green instead of the lime --- I just want this logo on a T-shirt for this game. I just think they would sell like hotcakes and it would look so awesome in the stands!!! Maybe give a version of this away to the first students or something like that!! It's not too late!!! We still have two weeks!

Needs to be lime green sir...

Actually I think you are right the lime green would probably stand out more...

You seem to have the ear of RV, see if you can make some wheels rolling on this. It's crazy that they wouldn't act on this, but as DeepGreen said "It makes too much sense." The Bigger schools would have JUMPED on something like this and made it happen in weeks yet alone months.

Alright, so if we'd all buy it, then why don't we?

Harry, et al:

I propose we crowd fund these shirts via Crowdtilt and have them printed locally by either Barefoot Apparel or Pan Ector Screenprinting.

Hear me out.

We could run a collection two ways; either just for the shirts everyone pays for -or- for a large order of shirts beyond the initial demand to provide a fundraising opportunity for GMG.com. I dunno, help out with the server costs or something.

Barefoot will certainly be the cheaper option with their supposed claim of getting certain costs down to $3.99/shirt. Pan Ector however would be greater in my opinion though as they use high-quality Next Level Apparel shirts, are all UNT grads, and if you've been to any Denton bars or festivals as of late, are the ones making all those cool shirts you want. Having worked with Pan Ector before, I can tell you that a run of 100 shirts with one color ink used on a color shirt would come to $5.59/shirt.

-----

Now how to finance.

I've participated in Crowdtilt stuff before on Reddit to fund a special /r/CFB brick for Baylor's new stadium and it works really simply, in a manner much akin to Kickstarter. Essentially, you set a minimum and target amount to fund and once that goal is met or exceeded, those who pitched will then have their cards charged at the end of the pre-determined time period. If the campaign fails, then no one is charged anything.

-----

So, what would ya'll think?

We could potentially do a campaign starting this weekend through maybe next Friday. And then go after an under-a-week rush order from either company and have the shirts in before the 31st.
