BIG DAWG

I agree, I think it has to be Chad Rose. This kid was well touted out of HS. The good thing is, not only do I think that he NEEDS to step up, I think he CAN be the man we are looking for to fill in Brewster's shoes.

Where are you at?

AMMENDMENT... I am so used to writing TEACHER/COACH, this will actually be my first year not coaching. I have retired from the coachign biz. I USED to coach at Northwest ISD

Is anyone picking up their copy at the midnight release at the Roanoke GameStop? I will be there to pick up my copy since I have summers off being a teacher/coach. If so, let me know and we can meet up, I haven't actually met anyone form this board

No, when the new stadium is made, I have heard from a "higher up", or wife of, that Fouts will reamin as a track only stadium.

If they can'tbeat Rice of all people, they sure as hell can't beat us. If this reporter is talking that shit he is a damned fool!

What the hell?

I might be the only one this is new to, but I play fantasy sports all year round, and just saw something on sportsline where they are offering...FANTASY COLLEGE FOOTBALL! My first pick is going to be J-MO!

That is great!

That is the first time I have seen Troy rated ahead of us! That is the first time in all of the mags I have looked in, and internet sites, that I have seen anyone inour conference even close to us! Always UNDERESTIMATED! (except by our own)

There is an updated picture of Fouts on the meangreensports.com site. It just shows the first layer of crushed rock that goes down. Nothing else, it just continues to say that it will be done in time for Tulsa. I SURE AS HELL HOPE SO! Where would we play if for some reason it was not finished in time?

I would love to have Mean Joe on the sidelines, but I would love to tailgate with Stone Cold!

cannot say it enough, OL/DL Someone said it earlier, they are two of the toughest positions to really hit it big on. Good DL play makes your LBers TREMENDOUSLY better! Good OL makes your entire offense TREMENDOUSLY better! Lets get some more OL?DL studs in here!

turf is the same

That is what happens when you play a Rose Bowl Champion in their house, for the first game of the season. Then you add in the fact half our team seemed as if they were first time starters. No fault on the staff, players, etc. I don't care what crazy ideas anyone else has on how it should have been netter than that. It would have been the same had we played Michigan, USC, Auburn, or any of the other schools that went to a BCS game.

Thanks! I really appreciate that! This is the first time I went for the logo.

I am a NT fan with everything I have, I couldn't be more of a fan than I am. That being said, there isn't a chance we play with LSU. WE ARE WHAT WE ARE! To think that if we have a really good game plan, and if we play hard enough, we should be able to hang with, or upset them is ridiculous. We are not on the same grounds as far as athletes across the board. We do have our fair share of athletes, but not like they do. I get so SICK of every year people getting pissed when we don't do well against the teams that end up in a BCS game. They schedule us for that reason, if they thought we had a chance of beating them, they would not schedule us. Also, you CANNOT compare Troy's game with Missouri with a game versus LSU, Texas, Oklahoma, etc.! That to is absolutley ridiculous. No, we are not going to go in there and lay it down, but do not think for one second that it is going to be close in the fourth quarter either. I HOPE WITH ALL MY BEING THAT ONE DAY WE CAN THINK LIKE THAT, BUT THIS IS NOT THE TIME! Lastly, DO NOT take MTSU lightly, this is going to be one hell of a tough game, and make no doubt about it IS A GAME THAT WE COULD VERY WELL COME UP ON THE WRONG SIDE OF. With that being said KILL MTSU, MAY THEY ROT IN THE HOT CINDERS OF HELL!

Would someone tell me where I can go on the internet to look at the rosters and the player ratings? I have heard that people are saying that jamario is a 90 overall. I would like to look at the other players.

I have also noticed on the meangreensports.com home page that there is a spot talking about the new schedule and times, it has the new colors, new logo, BUT it says, "North Texas." It says nothing about "Universitu of" or "UNT" Maybe a subtle way of saying that is the way we are going? Maybe we got our way afterall

Rick is most definately correct here, a win vs. LSU will have people coming out in droves!

Eagle 1855 - Not to try and beat you down, but every college has more alumns than students. It is just easier to get the students out in larger numbers. No kids, careers, etc. Don't get me wrong, we could benefit from getting more alumns in the seats, but are student section, even though brings a crowd, could and should be a lot larger.

It is definately the sudents that will boost attendance. A good point was made that the students that were around for the bad times are filtering out, and now you are getting a great base of students who have seen nothing but winning ways, and I think that will benefit us greatly. What we need more than anything to get attendance up this year is WINS EARLY! All of the 0-4, 0-5 starts really kill attendance. If WHOEVER is at QB can be somewhat successful early, we have a CHANCE at going into conference play with an above .500 record, and that will be HUGE for attendance numbers I feel.

Lets not say Joe Montana

HA!

What ever he got into, he needs to share!
