Not so fast my friend...

That one sticks out in my mind as well for some reason. It just completely deflated everyone. You would have thought we were playing Ohio State or something. Loss to UTSA at home in our first game against them was a toughie. The last road loss against Houston really stung me because I felt we had a good crowd and should have been more competitive. Dickey, Mac and Dodge were really horrendous on the road. And then there is Portland State although as one fan reminded me PSU had beaten WSU and was no push-over. There are plenty of good ones as well, mostly around Bowl Games. The 1st bowl game in New Orleans will always be special but the 1st win against Cincy was amazing. The turn-out of fans for the 1st C-USA bowl game at Fair Park may be my top moment though. That was awesome to see. Beating Boise on their blue turf was one of my favorite away games along with the Miracle in the Desert.

I like that they are boldly putting it out there on social media for everyone to see.

The University of North Texas is helping students affected by Hurricane Harvey by immediately admitting them and waiving application fees. UNT already is working with students to provide them with an educational home if they were displaced by the storm. View Full Article

It was Saturday. Too close to get it adjusted and set properly at that angle in my mind. Again could be the budget approval etc as mentioned but would have liked to see it fine sooner.

Prayers for all impacted. This thing is treacherous and far from over. Small potatoes in comparison of course but after reviewing Emmitt's photos, I'm starting to wonder if this Lamar game will even happen...

"Mean Green vs. Golden Arches" is about a developing land dispute between McDonald's and the University of North Texas. It seems both of them want to own a 1-acre parcel of land at the intersection of North Texas Boulevard and the Interstate 35E service road. The story provides a classic case for why UNT needs a regent who lives in Denton. More on that later in this editorial. Old-timers will remember when an Exxon station, a McDonald's and an IHOP were all crowded next to one another. The project to widen the interstate came along and the Texas Department of Transportation aquired a chunk of the property. The Exxon and the McDonald's shut down and were razed. The IHOP is still operating. UNT owns the surrounding property and wants the parcel in question for an as-yet undisclosed building project. McDonald's, with support from IHOP, is working on a deal to rebuild its restaurant at that location. UNT is an arm of the state of Texas. As such, it wields the power of eminent domain, meaning it can force condemnation of the IHOP/McDonald's property if the parties cannot reach a negotiated sale. This newspaper does not like to see UNT throwing its weight around in a way that some observers might see as bullying. With that said, we believe it's important for the university to present a visually striking gateway to its campus that can be seen from the highway. read more: http://www.dentonrc.com/opinion/editorial/2017/08/27/unts-land-plan-needs-local-input

Stanford takes it 80 yards on a standard off tackle run play on the very 1st play from scrimmage. Bad start for Owls. Stanford 7-0 in like one minute.

Watching game right now #19 USF up 21-16. Closer than I thought. Weird seeing Charlie Strong on the sidelines. Man if you thought we had attendance issues.... it's embarrasssing for San Jose.

That's not as bad as it could have been. Need to work on their O it sounds like.

I'm interested to see what type of player this kid turns out to be. His success could really help us in Denton. our inability to tie into Denton talent has always perplexed me. The story Inhave always gotten is that it's that players want to get out of their hometown and UNT'd proximity is a negative. I don't buy that. I think under Mac and with coaches before him we got into a pissing match and walked away. My hope is that Littrell will cultivate Denton pipelines. There is so much talent there and other outlying communities.

How they looking?

Long shot I know but hope they make a good showing for the conference. 9pm game. Football is here!

He can flat out play.

Very impressive win.

Man that's great!

Is it just me or are they obsessed with outdoing us? For the life of me I never understand why Mac didn't give a $hit about them and put no emphasis into the game. Not sure that Littrell does either. Fans and alumni sure do.

I haven't watched one on FBook but I did see a game on Twitter and it was really high quality.

Pretty cool in my opinion. ESPN had it's day in the sun. I am ready to have more competition for these games. It will bring more innovation and different perspectives. It will also help C-USA land more lucrative deals.

No we haven't been able to find an app to work with the new software yet and coding it would be a biatch. Still working on it for the future but unlikely to happen this year.

There is also some fun tailgating over on the west side of the stadium:

There is also a group that camps out the night before the 1st game and spends the night. Tony fertilizes and puts ant killer on his tailgating spot prior to the season: There is also tailgating on The Hill, primarily Fraternities and Sororities but also families and other groups:

DENTON -- Seth Littrell came to North Texas a year ago with a national reputation as an offensive guru and vowed to "tee it high and let it fly." The path UNT's head coach took to reach that goal seemed a little unconventional, to say the least. Littrell had been on the job just a few days when he handed his offense over to Graham Harrell, a Texas high school and college football legend with a short coaching résumé. Littrell's decision to hire an old friend as his offensive coordinator and play-caller resulted in a few bumpy moments, but it paid dividends overall. UNT will head into the second year of the Littrell era off a turnaround season that came largely out of the chemistry the pair have developed together -- and with their players. "Those two guys have a great relationship," UNT quarterback Mason Fine said. "Coach Littrell respects what Coach Harrell is trying to do. And Coach Harrell will bounce ideas off Littrell. Their attitudes complement each other. Coach Littrell is more laid-back, while Coach Harrell is always yelling. I am very comfortable with both those guys." read more: https://sportsday.dallasnews.com/college-sports/collegesports/2017/08/22/tandem-seth-littrell-graham-harrell-getting-unt-football-back-track

Hi there -- here is a link to our annual tag your tailgating thread put together by @UNT 90 Grad: Here is a direct link to the google map where some of our fan tailgates are mapped: http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&hl=en&oe=UTF8&msa=0&msid=201091365063211794234.0004e1e616fa14ccb41aa I hang out at "Tony's GoMeanGreen.com Tailgate" and our group would love to have you join us, but there are many great ones you can visit, and honestly all of them that I know would welcome you with open arms. I am sure that Tony will be posting more info closer to game day.
