Mean green kickoff event is tomorrow at 11am
ADLER replied to cousin oliver's topic in Mean Green Football
Something like this would have been better: -
That was the problem. Almost everyone jumped to turn off KNTU as soon as the Mean Green post-game shows ended. QUESTION - Do high school and college students still listen to radio stations? Isn't everything now exclusively on downloaded digital media? A recent survey proved that 99.9% of all listeners would rather sit through this than KNTU Jazz...

Mean green kickoff event is tomorrow at 11am
ADLER replied to cousin oliver's topic in Mean Green Football
Sad if true for the "no identity" school. Our mascot is just two rhyming adjectives, our university staff and teams all wear black because it's a preferential fashion color, and we've partnered with a retailer that historically invests very little effort in providing merchandise in our school colors. Bluto's generic sweatshirt in Animal House was presented as a joke. We're currently not too far off from that.- 26 replies

Only one green shirt being sold by Voertman's? Everything else is black or grey? Damn! Who could have predicted that? -

NT in USPA Collegiate Polo Championship
ADLER replied to UNT Five&Dime's topic in Mean Green Athletics
UNT POLO CLUB (link) North Texas does play SMU in Polo, but it was North Texas and Texas A&M who made it to the Final Four this year. Here's a YouTube video of the 2000 UNT - SMU polo match. -
Yes, WINNING should be our plan! I wonder why no other school ever thought of that. (sarcasm) Winning is an objective, not a strategy. What are the steps necessary to achieve that objective?

DRC: Bleed Green's TBT run ends in thriller
ADLER replied to Brett Vito's topic in Mean Green Basketball
Is there ANY chance of hosting one of the tournaments in Denton in the future? -
Per Wikipedia: The roster of Eberlein Drive consists of professional basketball players who compete outside of the NBA. The Basketball Tournament 2022 is the ninth edition of The Basketball Tournament (TBT), a 5-on-5, single elimination basketball tournament with a $1 million winner-take-all prize. The tournament, involving 64 teams, began on July 16 and ends on August 2 with the championship game in Dayton, Ohio. The tournament format is 64 teams, each playing in one of eight regionals. For the first time, the event will have a "championship week", starting with the regional winners advancing to quarterfinals at one of two sites, Dayton and Wichita, Kansas. The quarterfinal winners then travel to or remain in Dayton for the championship weekend.

Is Mean Joe looking to get back into coaching?
ADLER replied to Dannymacfan's topic in Mean Green Football
Anyone who wants to look trashy instead of wearing Green to our athletic events can always wear Glad Garbage Bags. They cost less, and like the black shirts, they show absolutely no association with supporting North Texas athletics. -

Nice Story of the Day
ADLER replied to UNTLifer's topic in The Eagles Nest (There Should be Pie For Everyone Forum)
Wow, what heroic actions. I'm grateful that there are still people like this. -
Everybody needs to see what Notre Dame decides before they make their next move. The Big XII doesn't want to add G-5's if Colorado, Utah, Arizona and ASU may soon become available. The remaining PAC schools must also be leery of the BIG 10 eventually absorbing Stanford, Cal, Oregon, and Washington. The two next moves belong to Notre Dame and to the Big 10. Only then can the PAC and Big XII determine whether they can remain viable separate conferences, or need to merge in some fashion.
-
Wrong, they've been told, "No, not now" while the BIG tries to force Notre Dame's decision. Only then will those dominos start falling into place.

I don't foresee this happening, at least not in the stated order. 1) Follow the money trail, 2) Follow the whims and required appeasement of the "Golden Child", 3) See what concessions will be wanted by USC and UCLA. The BIG is attempting to set itself to be unquestionably the nation's premier college football conference, and this is all an attempt to form a more marketable alliance than the SEC. TV money steers this competition. Notre Dame has it's sports parked in the ACC for scheduling but football is still independent, and would stay that way unless sufficiently pressured to change. Their big football rivalries are with BIG schools, USC, Stanford, and the service academies. Notre Dame can actually be pressured to move to the BIG now that all of their major rivals, outside of the service academies, are potentially joining that league. Even Notre Dame cannot risk losing all their rivals. For political reasons it would be extremely difficult for UCLA to outright ditch Cal. Notre Dame will want Stanford added. USC also wants to maintain their longstanding rivalries with Notre Dame, Stanford and Cal. They all get what they want. Washington and Oregon will both be included because of their strong sports programs and national following. All this leaves the BIG as the most marketable, and potentially most dominant, athletics conference with these 21 members, and other open spots to be eventually filled by potential candidates among Arizona, Arizona State, Colorado, Kansas, Missouri, and Virginia. (yes, Missouri would jump at the opportunity, and the BIG would relish the slap to the SEC) The SEC will be forced to counteract with the additions of among Florida State, Clemson, North Carolina, Virginia, Miami, and maybe a Big XII leftover. Notre Dame would be their ultimate victory but I don't see that happening. The rest of us, locked out of the two "Super Conferences" are relegated to second tier status and will all make the best of the situation presented.

Or if there are roving gangs of criminals that stop you and say "wear an orange UNT shirt or we'll beat you up." Let's quit with all the ridiculous scenarios. Our schools athletic teams, as evidenced by the golf team shirt and countless other unique color combinations in all sports, have nothing to do with our university. We simply cannot build brand loyalty while letting everybody and their dog pick coloring for our school's most visible groups, our athletic teams. For varsity uniforms, it's GREEN and WHITE, or it's WRONG.

Hedlund gets contract extension thru 2026
ADLER replied to meangreenfaninno's topic in Mean Green Athletics
This is incredible news. Our soccer team annually finishes either at the top or very near the top in whichever conference we play. Hedlund has proven that he can consistently identify talent, recruit talent, and coach talent.
