  1. What is our outlook for a punter next year?
  2. I think I'm with Cougar King on this one. Good grief, the current generation of parenting is absolutely pathetic. I would be absolutely mortified to have had a parent post something like this. Luckily it sounds like Nic hasn't been negatively affected by this kind of "helicoptering", since he is such a hard worker (or maybe he's overcompensating for it??), but most of the kids being raised by these parents are gonna' turn out as total wusses. It'll totally be over the next time the Germans bomb Pearl Harbor.
  3. I've noticed that a lot of stations on TuneIn are showing as "restricted by the broadcaster". TheTicket, JackFM, etc. show up this way.
  4. I'd "hold her"!
  5. “My height was a big reason I was overlooked,” Y’Barbo said. “A Kansas State coach straight up told me that he loved the way I played and my tenacity but that I’m too short for Kansas State and too short to play in the Big 12.” I posted before that I really noticed him in the highlights of the K-State game and wouldn't be surprised that this motivated him to dial it up another notch for that game.
  6. This is great news if Denton really is getting behind this and not just lip service to the idea. BTW, it looks like the last couple of links are using some sort of outlook/email in the URL and sends us to a login page. Here's the corrected links: http://leadandserve.unt.edu/service/index.html http://meangreenpride.unt.edu/support-denton http://meangreenpride.unt.edu/discounts
  7. This is horrible. Thoughts are with you Sean and families. Puts a 14-7 loss to Troy in a whole new perspective.
  8. I kept wondering the same thing. I'm no expert at recognizing what the defense is doing to force the offense into certain plays, but it seemed like more of the kinds of plays from the KState game could have been called. I wrote before after the TSU game that maybe they were trying to work on DT's long passes and that we'd see benefits from it in the future. Now, I don't think so. It's crazy that he can be accurate on some and then overthrow by a mile. There was a decent wind at the TSU game that could have messed with things, but it wasn't much of a factor this week. I kept waiting for us to dink/dunk and stay ahead of the chains like we did against KState, but it didn't ever happen.
  9. A lot of the TD support came from him having success at the local level. Had he come from the same situation but from a Florida HS or even from a Houston area HS, it would have been less. Lots of local people were familiar with SLC and its success and they were coming out to see the same thing happen at UNT.
  10. Was there a problem with the cannon? IIRC, it didn't go off after some of the quarters. Given the score, they should have had plenty of rounds available.
  11. BTW, 10 thumbs up on the Red parking. I was in Blue last year and the entry via the Red access is tons better (at least coming in from Dallas). Was that road connecting from NT Blvd open last year or is this a new route? My only complaint is that it was unnerving to drive down the split road with all of the pedestrians. Most of the peds were staying on their side of the cones, but there were a few wandering out into the car lanes. They need to do a better job of keeping these separated.
  12. Apparently, "East" means east of the Rockies.
  13. Yeah, this is what I was really meaning. Just like it became custom for ND-Navy, maybe we could get a UNT-<Svcs> setup. Granted we don't have the history of a ND, but it could still be something to try.
  14. It's been said before, but I really wish we could start a tradition of scheduling one of the service schools each year. The Army and Navy games were great and had good attendance. And that Navy game was just CRAZY!!!
  15. Well, now that we've started down this path... UNT: 96 Troy: 69
  16. Yep, although for me it was the CFS sandwiches. It was big enough that you could cut 1/3 of the steak off and eat it separately.
  17. Yeah, this is what I was thinking too. Likely the case when you purchase a ticket as opposed to a "free" raffle where they can require you to be there.
  18. Les Nessman: Eagles play ASI at Fouts...film at 11.
  19. NT - 37 Troy - 34 NT scores winning TD on shuffle pass In the first overtime!
  20. 25 if school=SMU 26 let attendance=1 million 27 end if
  21. Two years. Let me repeat that...Two Years!! Two years from now, things are going to be a lot different around here. We're gonna' look around and wonder how far we've come in such little time. It's gonna' make the wasted time of the Dodge era seem even more disgraceful. But all of that is going to be in our rear-view mirror. This football team is headed in the right direction and with a lot of force. There's gonna' be some setbacks. We're going to lose some games we should have won and this board will blow up for a bit. We may get some injuries that knock us off track for a bit. But when we look around in about TWO YEARS, things are gonna' be looking pretty good. For now, enjoy the minimal traffic problems. Enjoy having plenty of leg room to spread out. Enjoy the short lines at concessions and restrooms. Take in the last few moments of listening to your co-workers be dismissive or "meh" at your MEAN GREEN, because things are about to change. As this forum's title says..."Coach Mac is our leader and will take us to the promised land". We are starting to see the signs of this and in about two more years, it'll really begin to shine BRIGHT GREEN! Mark it!! This post has been promoted to an article
