  1. The scout, Silas, siaid that he was looking at a few of our seniors but that the unknown running back had gotten everybody's attention. I guess this is all an early part of the Mean Green Shock the Nation Tour.
  2. If the Mean Green qualify for a bowl game, I would love to see North Texas get into A) the Bell Helicopter Armed Forces Bowl in Fort Worth, or the Independence Bowl in Shreveport. The more North Texas fans that are able to attend a bowl game is going to be instrumental in building a strong fan base for the near future.
  3. I met a scout from the Detroit lions that was sent to Denton today to meet with coaches and get film on Cam Montgomery. Detroit Lions scout Silas McKinnie Apparently members of the Lions coaching staff had watched the Ball State game interested in MiQuale Lewis, but soon realized they didn't have any information on the senior running back from North Texas that dominated the game. Cam Montgomery flashes Ball State the Heisman pose during Thursday night's victory.
  4. Cajun Stadium has 31,000 actual numbered seats. There has been 'general seating' utilized in the grass end zone areas. Both end zone grass areas already have a hardened foundation so the stadium can easily be expanded to over 40,000 at very little cost. There are already supports built on the top of the east side stands to support an upper deck that matches the one on the west side. The supports are visible in the above photographs. The additional elevated deck, if ever built, will increase capacity to well over 50,000. And no undesirable upper deck end-zone seating was ever considered.
  5. What? 41,357? That's not possible! A Sun Belt school should never have more than 28,000? Isn't it so much better to sell out a 28,000 seat venue and tell the other 13,400 people to kiss off? So what if many have already covered the price of their admission through mandatory fees. Kiss off suckers.
  6. McNeal scores. 31-23. Game wasn't even close.
  7. Over, just running out clock now.
  8. SFA misses short field goal. SMU wins 24-23.
  9. Don't Mess with North Texas It looks like the Ball State football team has started voting. "Mr. Montgomery, we grovel at your feet. Please show us the Heisman pose."
  10. Please, please CBL, tell me that you haven't fallen victim to this dreaded alot affliction that has been sweeping through gomeangreen.com like a pandemic. Formerly affecting only playmaker and a few other alot disciples, this has spread like wildfire since the the Green Gang adopted it as their special gift to the literary challenged during each chat. And for those of you that can only view this note as a high altitude contrail, A Lot is two separate words.
  11. I'm not. This eligibility request was a long shot from the onset. The NCAA often gives exemptions if there are extenuating circumstances, usually health related reasons for the player or his family. The NCAA does not make exceptions when a player just wants to play closer to home, wants more playing time, or has issues with a coaching staff. I too would love to see him play this season, and I look forward to watching him in coming seasons, but Tyler has no personal medical or family medical reasons to have transferred. The speedy recruit from New Orleans found himself buried on the OU depth chart during last season and quit the team prior to their Baylor game. Last year Colin Peek at Alabama and Ryan Mallet at Arkansas lost high profile NCAA appeals. It happens everywhere, and without extenuating circumstances a player has basically very little chance. Tyler's family was severely affected by Hurricane Katrina, which is very unfortunate, and he has an aunt that lives in Lewisville. Those may be contributing factors for why he wants to transfer and where he wanted to transfer, but hardly can be viewed by the NCAA as why he needed to leave one school because he needed to be at this other place. Tyler will sit out this year per transfer rules and then show us what he can do next year.
  12. I predict 25,000 but weather.com predicts rain. Sat Sep 12, 60% chance of rain, Scattered T-Storms Still a week away, this prediction can change.
  13. I think we're being a little excessive here. All that is really required is to hit her over the head with a large skillet each Saturday, then tie her up and lock her in the closet until the game is over. If, and only if, that doesn't work should we recommend death therapy.
  14. I too have to give kudos to he Ball State fans. They are an extremely classy group, and have several hilarious cards that post on their site. Something that really made an impression was that the Ball State band played the NorthTexas fight song before the game for our team. That was pure class. The last time I remember seeing that done was when A&M played at Michigan in like 1979.
  15. I have been blocked out for the last hour because of the overwhelming traffic on the board.
  16. I thought this one from the same ebay seller was pretty cool. I'd love to see something similar given to students at games, it advertises the program well. North Texas shirt on Ebay
  17. That's right! WATCH THIS VIDEO (yes, click here) I say keep him at quarterback and use him with Riley in the A-11 Offense. Both can run, pass, and catch. What team would really be able to prepare for that?
  18. I'm kind of surprised that this one hasn't appeared as someone's signature on gomeangreen.com;
  19. Gilmore is listed at DE on the depth chart for the Ball State game and should play quite a bit.
  20. What's your prediction? i-m5fwjjob4
  21. Sometimes, rarely, a player can receive a 6th year to have his fourth year of competition. It's possible but not common. Medical redshirts are approved by conferences, medical redshirts that require a sixth year have to be approved by the NCAA. I believe Leonard Hopkins received one for North Texas' basketball several years back. That being said, William Cole should be an excellent candidate because he had a season ending injury before the season ever started. Unfortunately North Texas can't appeal until after he has used his remaining eligibility.
  22. Tulsa Football ate my metal lab too! F a slut!
  23. I thought I should share these. I didn't write them but I thought they were funny. I wish Google Maps had an "Avoid Ghetto" routing option. More often than not, when someone is telling me a story all I can think about is that I can't wait for them to finish so that I can tell my own story that's not only better, but also more directly involves me. Nothing sucks more than that moment during an argument when you realize you're wrong. I don't understand the purpose of the line, "I don't need to drink to have fun." Great, no one does. But why start a fire with flint and sticks when they've invented the lighter? Have you ever been walking down the street and realized that you're going in the complete opposite direction of where you are supposed to be going? But instead of just turning a 180 and walking back in the direction from which you came, you have to first do something like check your watch or phone or make a grand arm gesture and mutter to yourself to ensure that no one in the surrounding area thinks you're crazy by randomly switching directions on the sidewalk. That's enough, Nickelback. I totally take back all those times I didn't want to nap when I was younger. The letters T and G are very close to each other on a keyboard. This recently became all too apparent to me and consequently I will never be ending a work email with the phrase "Regards" again. Do you remember when you were a kid, playing Nintendo and it wouldn't work? You take the cartridge out, blow in it and that would magically fix the problem. Every kid in America did that, but how did we all know how to fix the problem? There was no internet or message boards or FAQ's. We just figured it out. Today's kids are soft. There is a great need for sarcasm font. Sometimes, I'll watch a movie that I watched when I was younger and suddenly realize I had no idea what the hell was going on when I first saw it. I think everyone has a movie that they love so much, it actually becomes stressful to watch it with other people. I'll end up wasting 90 minutes shiftily glancing around to confirm that everyone's laughing at the right parts, then making sure I laugh just a little bit harder (and a millisecond earlier) to prove that I'm still the only one who really, really gets it. How the hell are you supposed to fold a fitted sheet? I would rather try to carry 10 plastic grocery bags in each hand than take 2 trips to bring my groceries in. I think part of a best friend's job should be to immediately clear your computer history if you die. The only time I look forward to a red light is when I'm trying to finish a text. A recent study has shown that playing beer pong contributes to the spread of mono and the flu. Yeah, if you suck at it. Was learning cursive really necessary? Lol has gone from meaning, "laugh out loud" to "I have nothing else to say". I have a hard time deciphering the fine line between boredom and hunger. Answering the same letter three times or more in a row on a Scantron test is absolutely petrifying. Whenever someone says "I'm not book smart, but I'm street smart", all I hear is "I'm not real smart, but I'm imaginary smart". How many times is it appropriate to say "What?" before you just nod and smile because you still didn't hear what they said? Every time I have to spell a word over the phone using 'as in' examples, I will undoubtedly draw a blank and sound like a complete idiot. Today I had to spell my boss's last name to an attorney and said "Yes that's G as in...(10 second lapse)..ummm...Goonies" What would happen if I hired two private investigators to follow each other? While driving yesterday I saw a banana peel in the road and instinctively swerved to avoid it...thanks Mario Kart. MapQuest really needs to start their directions on #5. Pretty sure I know how to get out of my neighborhood. Obituaries would be a lot more interesting if they told you how the person died. I find it hard to believe there are actually people who get in the shower first and THEN turn on the water. Shirts get dirty. Underwear gets dirty. Pants? Pants never get dirty, and you can wear them forever. I can't remember the last time I wasn't at least kind of tired. Bad decisions make good stories Whenever I'm Facebook stalking someone and I find out that their profile is public I feel like a kid on Christmas morning who just got the Red Ryder BB gun that I always wanted. 546 pictures? Don't mind if I do! If Carmen San Diego and Waldo ever got together, their offspring would probably just be completely invisible. Why is it that during an ice-breaker, when the whole room has to go around and say their name and where they are from, I get so incredibly nervous? Like I know my name, I know where I'm from, this shouldn't be a problem.... You never know when it will strike, but there comes a moment at work when you've made up your mind that you just aren't doing anything productive for the rest of the day. Can we all just agree to ignore whatever comes after DVDs? I don't want to have to restart my collection. There's no worse feeling than that millisecond you're sure you are going to die after leaning your chair back a little too far. I'm always slightly terrified when I exit out of Word and it asks me if I want to save any changes to my ten page research paper that I swear I did not make any changes to. "Do not machine wash or tumble dry" means I will never wash this ever. I hate being the one with the remote in a room full of people watching TV. There's so much pressure. 'I love this show, but will they judge me if I keep it on? I bet everyone is wishing we weren't watching this. It's only a matter of time before they all get up and leave the room. Will we still be friends after this?' I hate when I just miss a call by the last ring (Hello? Hello? Aghh!), but when I immediately call back, it rings nine times and goes to voicemail. What'd you do after I didn't answer? Drop the phone and run away? I hate leaving my house confident and looking good and then not seeing anyone of importance the entire day. What a waste. When I meet a new girl, I'm terrified of mentioning something she hasn't already told me but that I have learned from some light internet stalking. I like all of the music in my iTunes, except when it's on shuffle, then I like about one in every fifteen songs in my iTunes. Why is a school zone 20 mph? That seems like the optimal cruising speed for pedophiles... As a driver I hate pedestrians, and as a pedestrian I hate drivers, but no matter what the mode of transportation, I always hate cyclists. Sometimes I'll look down at my watch 3 consecutive times and still not know what time it is. It should probably be called Unplanned Parenthood. I keep some people's phone numbers in my phone just so I know not to answer when they call. Even if I knew your social security number, I wouldn't know what do to with it. Even under ideal conditions people have trouble locating their car keys in a pocket, and Pinning the Tail on the Donkey - but I'd bet my ass everyone can find and push the Snooze button from 3 feet away, in about 1.7 seconds, eyes closed, first time every time... My 4-year old son asked me in the car the other day "Dad what would happen if you ran over a ninja?" How the hell do I respond to that? It really pisses me off when I want to read a story on CNN.com and the link takes me to a video instead of text. I wonder if cops ever get pissed off at the fact that everyone they drive behind obeys the speed limit. I think the freezer deserves a light as well. I disagree with Kay Jewelers. I would bet on any given Friday or Saturday night more kisses begin with Miller Lites than Kay. The other night I ordered takeout, and when I looked in the bag, saw they had included four sets of plastic silverware. In other words, someone at the restaurant packed my order, took a second to think about it, and then estimate d that there must be at least four people eating to require such a large amount of food. Too bad I was eating by myself.
  24. I'm there. I can't stand to sit at home and watch this game, I've got to be where the fans are all cheering for our boys.
