I too would like to see Joe return next season, but like I said, I don't know if he is eligible, and if he wants to return for another season. Joe may want to start his working career or pursue graduate studies at North Texas or another college without the distraction of football. Riley has only played in three games; Tulsa, LSU, and Rice. Although he traveled to the Kansas State game he never played that day. Joe played in all four games at the start of the season. *Here's a little bit of information about medical hardship waivers. The NCAA does not grant medical hardship waivers, the conferences do. The NCAA office only grants them for independent schools. As long as the documentation is there from medical doctors and the training staff, they're almost always granted as long as they meet the necessary criteria. A medical hardship waiver, which is commonly referred to as a medical redshirt, is when there is limited competition, but a season-ending injury occurs prior to the 20 percent point of the season. Then, every school has the option to make an appeal to the conference office for a medical hardship waiver to get that year of competitive eligibility back. The NCAA requires a maximum 20% participation but the rule doesn't recognize decimal points, so 29% is actually allowed (maximum of less than 30%) and all of that competition must occur in the first half of the season. In a 12 game season, 3 games is 25%, 4 games is 33%. Here is where it gets sticky. Getting a medical redshirt doesn't guarantee a player a sixth year. Once a student-athlete enrolls as a full-time student, what's called the "five-year clock" starts to tick. They have five years from that point in which to complete their four years of eligibility. It's a pretty strict standard and an extension is not easy to get. The college must petition the NCAA for an extension for a sixth year and only about 25% of those requests are granted.

Don't you owe me some kind of royalties fee, or at least a beer?

I saw this reply on the ESPN page: I wonder how accurate that statement really is. Is there really a benefit that can be derived from a coach battling the customers that he was hired, and payed very well to serve? Please note that I am not including instances like Okie State 's coach defending one of his players.

Yes, yes, Please tell us more! You're killing me! Tell us something new! Are there any more juicy details? Boxers or briefs? Is he a good kisser? Was his car really spotted parked outside Maple Hall? Hi, Nautique! Hi, NTex! What's the story, morning glory? What's tale, nightingale? Tell what you know about Riley and how! Hi, NTex! Hi, Nautique! What's the story, morning glory? What's the word, humming bird? I'm just so excited, Like WOW! A friend of mine says that she knows Riley's aunt's neighbor so I may soon have some details to add myself! Ooh! I am so excited!

GOSSIPTIQUE?

Please don't sell 2007 short, he's doing it for the whole board.

Maybe Sweeney Todd? He is known for carving up defenses.

For you bewildered youngsters out there.........Before PETA there was POTA where they had the upper hand (with an opposable thumb). Cmw6Jne0tAQ

The current "Son-of-Worm" logo is the only way to go. All others, despite sentimentality, require an explanation. Go to MeanGreenWorld.com for more design ideas. ,

Actually, you probably don't. You have 5 calendar years to complete 4 years of eligibility after the first day that you have attended college. You can possibly get a sixth year to play if you had missed one of your four playing years due to injury.

While I do believe that it is certainly worthwhile to give a scholarship to any non-traditional student who earns one, I also believe that it's nearly impossible to actually recruit towards that. What we'd need is a really accessible walk-on program for football and basketball.Something that shows how we receive not only recent high school and juco graduates, but also older students that have delayed the college possibly because of a military career. We may have that, but I certainly haven't see it being promoted.

I have a Scrappy bobblehead but I am not selling it. I also have the earlier NTSC mascot statue that was the basis for this NTSU bobblehead. The bobblehead is very hard to find, the NTSC statue is practically impossible.

Actually, this stuff is kind of weird. The next war is supposed to be triggered by the death of the leader's friend "Mabus". Former Mississippi Governor and Obama supporter Raymond Edwin "Ray" Maybus was Clinton's Ambassador to Saudi Arabia and may return to a similar position during the Obama administration. So, let's all relax and just wait to see if anything actually happens to this Ray Mabus guy. Well, this is how Nostradamus predicts the apocalyptic war will start. Funny though, his prediction that the blue turbaned one "will be borne amidst the seas to the east" could hardly describe a kid from Chicago.

True, his antics finally caught up with him. yngq9NmOnFw

Joe's other son Delon is 1 or 2 years younger than Major. Major was a defensive lineman and Delon was a linebacker at Duncanville. Major signed with North Texas out of high school. Delon was more heavily recruited and spent his freshman year at Pitt before returning to play at North Texas. Major was the more outgoing of the two, would often be seen at campus events and frat parties, and was elected Homecoming King his senior year. Daughter Joquel Greene still lives in the area and is a Keller Williams agent in Flower Mound, the same beautiful southern Denton County community in which her father has retired.

I would love to have at least one marquee game each year that absolutely fills the Super Pit. Who cares if upper level seats to be given away, it would do wonders for launching this program.

CollegeBoard is probably the best source for comparison although it only lists undergraduate enrollment figures. College Board Schools in urban settings such as Texas, Texas Tech, and Houston are all classified as commuter schools because there is very little student housing located near campus other than dorms or frat houses. Most students at these schools commute several miles to campus each day. The UT Shuttle System is the largest university shuttle system in the country and the students at Houston ride the city Metro bus system.

Yes, there was Dena Schlosser, Angela Yates, and also Dee Laney from Tyler that clobbered her children to death with large stones. What did they all have in common? Fundamentalist Christianity, the latter two home schooling the children to keep them ignorant to the world. In times of stress, all three mothers claimed they were being directed by God as they killed their children. Is being brainwashed by religious extremists really excusable as insanity or just stupidity? To tell you the truth, I don't know.

Yeah, and they didn't even fire Snyder. Boy, how did that decision come back to bite them on the ass? Let's face it, the expectations were not high for a quick turnaround under Snyder. He was, like Dodge, having to rebuild a program after a Dickey.

I have never heard anything so heinous in all my life! Heinous, giggle giggle.

Uh, would you believe that it's not in there either?

On a side note, did anybody else witness the sudden crashing end to Ralph Nader's career tonight? This guy has been a famous consumer advocate since the early sixties when he penned his Unsafe At Any Speed book on the dangers of Chevrolet's rear engined Corvair. He has since run for President in 2000 and this year. Tonight, speaking to a gathering in Houston, Nader proclaimed "now we'll see if Obama is Uncle Sam or Uncle Tom."
