Or…energy prices continue to rise as well as food costs so we're going to have to raise the cost of on campus housing and meal plans to cover those increases.

RV?

Based on multiple posts, I'm really glad you're not North Texas' recruiting coordinator.

you know, most of the time when people start a statement with lead-ins like this, they tend to be measured and well-thought out responses.

With its eighth win in a row, NT goes to 9-3 last night. Dani Hoff plates the only run of the game in the first inning against a good Texas State squad, and Ashley Kirk makes it hold up with a complete game 1-hitter. Second game against ACU (not as good of a team) was a blow out until late, but we pulled out a 12-8 "squeaker." GMG

would we have celebrated the Bronze medal in WW2??? I bet Japan didn't. America.

It wasn't that long ago we had a rather scary selections of QBs. Now we have 6 or 7.(Chumbley) This is very exciting. Hope some of these good athletes will be ready to move to a new position!

Actually it has nothing to do with name recognition or tv. For the college age group they are talking about it's phone usage. Too many people in one area overwhelm the cell/Wi-Fi network and then phones/tablets don't work. Asking some that age to go without social media for three is like asking them not to breathe for three hours.

UNT90, you really should have taken a science class post 7th grade.

Stop the nightmare Put us out of our misere Euthanasia

Young, energetic, great with recruits? You mean someone like that besides Marcus Trice?

So how does that sitting out a semester play into his eligibility at NT? Would that mean he sits this spring and then be allowed to participate in this upcoming fall season?

I often wonder if we are finding our best athletes in some of these events? just now a Canadian team just medaled, are you kidding me? We have football players consistently jumping over 10 feet and as far as 11 1/2 feet in the standing broad jump, and as high as 46 inches in the vertical at the NFL combine. And who knows what the highest NBA player vertical jump is? But you can't convince me we don't have some people who can get us to being more competitive than we are in hockey. surely we can do much better that what we got now?

Too young. We need experience. I think Akina is too young too. Give me Zombie Landry.

UNT's housing and food costs to students continues to be WELL BELOW peer group average. This increase does not move the needle much closer to peer group average which is the aim of the university over the next few years.

Several others playing and got a new one yesterday...unt88...former UNT football player is now set to play. Most are simply not posting in this thread for some reason. If any players would like to help our coaches draft players, please post a few stats here. Thanks. Players...still need 'em! Where are all our basketball experts?

If he has enough decision making and the arm to have Scott Hall's 3 to 1 TD/INT ratio then give him the job now.

Whatever. Who wants an old like that? Get me Doug from Accounts Receivable. Seems like a good dude and there's a lot of potential to grow into the position.

soooo....any one else playing or am i going to be wiping up the floor with these degenerates???

. Always look both ways when crossing a street.... yes it usually will be a waste of time... no one will be coming but you still need to do it. No where have I or most here claimed man is absolutely cause the melting.... but it is happening.... but in case we are causing it, we should not be doing something stupid (like doing nothing). .. besides cleaning up the air is not a bad thing anyway... ask the people of L.A. (smog) or China. Your claim of people saying it will increase the oceans by 20 feet is a bit radical as well... Some yes but 20 feet.??? That is only by extremists in the other direction... Science learning did not stop when you were in the 7th grade and yes 40 years from now we likely will know even more... I know "conservative" means don't change anything, things are great now or before now... which seems to be your attitude to EVERYTHING. I regularly tell my students [ college classes ] that the world outside the window will not be the same when they become the age I am..... I have seen TV, cable, satellites, cell phones, PCs, the internet, cell phones, the interstate, jet travel, and so much more show up in my lifetime.... My grandfather as a kid got out of a wagon on the Texas prairie and was home on land that had never been owned by anyone before except by the State of Texas .. and he was home... no house, no town nearby, no railroad, nothing.... . times and knowledge change... even if you still want to be in the 7th grade again.... PS: the picture I use is my grandfather (above) was about 1899 just prior to getting married.... I admire what he did and realize the difficult times he lived in. ... things change.

I mean... Right?

Sure it is comfortable to watch on TV, and you do get better views......but, the live game is still much more entertaining.

Yup.

10 LEGIT DIVISION 1 WINS!!!

I wanted to disagree with you then you posted this. Happy you came back (even if for just a few posts).

Don't worry guys. I'll do the honors. http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=DnVrSZHnvYY

That comment was about TCU grabbing a target or commitment from us. Nobody took a shot at the Johnson kid! In fact, the whole damn board preferred Xavier Washington; as well as the coaching staff. (Despite saying this was their top guy) We did "pick" this kid off from Texas State. And, if we are short D-linemen again, we will probably pick off another kid from a smaller program. Happens every year to other programs by bigger programs. Never said anything about this kid or other kids I have not seen play. TCU raids us, Texas raids TCU etc. (just like other coaching staff's are raiding our staff) I realize this is a pro UNT board where folks get pissed when the honest opinions and assessments of a few are expressed. We want to be lied to. We want to feel good. We want the star system to be in our favor. We want to dismiss it when its not. That system and poster's posts are opinions! It's shouldn't be a time to cry when someone didn't post glowing things about a recruit. The kids are only 18. Their parents read the board and on and on and on. It is not being negative or taking shots at a recruit to post an opinion. I've been on this board for a while now and don't ever remember blasting another poster because I didn't like what they had to say. If I ever decide to do that, I'm going to make damn sure I fully understand the context of their post. Yes, it is hard and tempting not to. Ex: Someone posted for Xavier to not sign with UH because "no one wants to go to school in the hood". I took exception to that but felt I just had to walk away for a minute. Anyway, I'd rather get the good, bad and ugly on a kid rather than the regular "excellent pickup" comment on every recruit we sign. I don't ever think I have seen a bad HUDL video on any kid in any sport. They all seem to impress. If any post of mine seems to offend anyone, please send me a message off line. It comes across cowardly to blast someone in an open forum. My view or slant may be different than others. I guess I don't have that PC thing down too well. I had a friend (from NT) call me from Houston after the Rice game in which he attended. He blasted the players for over 20 minutes talking about how awful they were. This is a friend that I have begged to drive up for a football game. The same conversation I've had with most of my Dallas area friends/alums for years but still refuse to drive 40 minutes up to Denton. I have 2 adult sons who graduated from UNT but have not been back for a game. They've seen and experienced the product but refuse to believe it has gotten much better. Anyway, these are the guys you should be having issues with. They continue to be a hard sell. No reason the Cotton Bowl didn't have at least 50,000 DFW alums at the game. And by the way, I bought my tickets at the gate for $20 each. These tickets were given away to the community. One guy on the DART train after the game still had about 6 others that he told me he couldn't give away. While directing a rant toward a pro Mean green supporter for about 35 years, most alums aren't buying what we are selling. What would you rather have? Lastly, I hope like hell Xavier gets homesick and we get another shot at him down the road. Has absolutely nothing to do with any other player. I don't have to be coy about anything I do or say. I can never be a fake. Poster or otherwise... I apologize to others for my rant! lol

Saw him at the Texas Jam in 1976. Everything sounded exactly the same.

All comedy aside, it was nice to win.

We win! I told you'll those early season NAIA games would pay off.

Speaking of Abner Haynes, I was recently looking through Jim Dent's new book, THE KIDS GOT IT RIGHT, on the integration of Texas college football. Jerry Levias was mentioned at least one hundred times while Abner was mentioned perhaps twice. Even players such as Bill Bradley of Texas were covered more than any North Texas black players, although our football team was integrated almost a decade before the SWC recruited its first black players. Although we were a Division 1 team in the Missouri Valley back then, we seem to be no more that an afterthought in Dent's book. There is an interesting piece about our freshman team playing Kilgore JC thats worth reading, but the book as a whole is disappointing and even misleading in some ways. I suppose that is to be expected, however, from a former DAILY CAMPUS, (SMU) writer. We seem to get more national recognition at times from the national media than from within our own state.

This is the classic fan being a fan and not looking at the business side of this. Money talks in every profession. I'm pretty sure you would take a hefty raise and a more prestigious job too. He is from Ohio and grew up around Big Ten football, so it probably means a lot to him to get back to his roots. There is no need to be mad at Coach Joesph for this decision. It was a very smart move.

UNT90 and Rick are convinced that climate scientists were predicting a 'new ice age' in the 1970's. Here's the abstract from the American Meterological Society Journal. Abstract Climate science as we know it today did not exist in the 1960s and 1970s. The integrated enterprise embodied in the Nobel Prizewinning work of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change existed then as separate threads of research pursued by isolated groups of scientists. Atmospheric chemists and modelers grappled with the measurement of changes in carbon dioxide and atmospheric gases, and the changes in climate that might result. Meanwhile, geologists and paleoclimate researchers tried to understand when Earth slipped into and out of ice ages, and why. An enduring popular myth suggests that in the 1970s the climate science community was predicting “global cooling” and an “imminent” ice age, an observation frequently used by those who would undermine what climate scientists say today about the prospect of global warming. A review of the literature suggests that, on the contrary, greenhouse warming even then dominated scientists' thinking as being one of the most important forces shaping Earth's climate on human time scales. More importantly than showing the falsehood of the myth, this review describes how scientists of the time built the foundation on which the cohesive enterprise of modern climate science now rests. http://journals.ametsoc.org/doi/abs/10.1175/2008BAMS2370.1 Now they have no excuse for repeating what they know is a lie.

A regretful collaborative bit and a far too sophisticated artificial-intelligence interface.

and... 6'6" 229...white...played 7th grade B team...scored the only points in the first half of our first game...we went on to lose 5-4...so much unfinished business since that game....i plan on taking it out against the losers on the other team... i'm the great white hype...oh ya...let's down some beers...

Quarterly revenue of $8.62 billion - shareholders rewarded, employees fired...but, will continue to invest in its people. http://www.ibamag.com/news/major-insurer-will-fire-1600-workers-17276.aspx "Property/casualty insurer American International Group says it will reduce its global workforce by approximately 3% by the end of the year. .... Benmosche hopes the severance change will help balance AIG’s balance sheet and streamline the organization, as well as reward company shareholders. Most of the job losses are expected to be in AIG’s property/casualty division, which the insurer hopes to centralize in more low-cost locations. 'We will continue to invest in our people with a competitive pay structure that rewards performance and provides opportunities that enable more internal mobility,' Benmosche added.'" Yes, when you let 1,600 people go, it does tend to free up some positions internally.

This guy might be good? http://www.fausports.com/sports/m-footbl/mtt/chris_hurd_880484.html

What the hell was Benford doing at Discovery Park

Would zero tolerance go for coaches who may have had a little domestic violence in their past? Or just players?

I start with a secret rub I grind myself, then smoke it at very low heat. Time will depend on weight, but ~16 hours is normal. My caveat is that BBQ sauce is for people who can't actually smoke meat, no BBQ sauce will be on hand, and if you bring your own we will probably have to duel.

Who do some people think we are?

Just wanted to share this. My wife is finishing up. She's Mean Green.

Ryan, stop knee-jerking. This is the same Duke that has seen the same rise in the same time that we have, finished second in the ACC this year to the national champion, and went toe-to-toe with A&M for what was probably the most entertaining bowl game this season. Don't try to act like we're above lowly Duke.

Lol, I'll never understand why people still say "could" instead of "couldn't" in this phrase.

Well, I'm sure we can always pick off a Texas State commit if necessary

Crap, we've fallen so far espn forgot we have a basketball team.

Who wouldn't want to campaign with a pedophile? He can play the guitar!!!! No gays though... Plz.
