Does any body realize or care that one of the men holding a check for 1 million dollars was Brint Ryan? Our Chairman of the Board of Regents? Does anyone realize that this was the first football game he has been to since the middle of last year? Does anyone realize that you don't show up people like Dr. Smastresk in public? You guys are going to label yourselves as just plain radicals. My only comparison is the "Occupy Wall Street" movement, which accomplished nothing. I would use my energy and money if I were you on other things, because this banner thing is not going to end well for anybody. You may feel better and laugh and point while it is flying over, but the public attention that you are going to put on this University is just not worth it. You are not crapping on RV, you are crapping on Smastresk and Ryan, and they are not going to like it. You are just giving them a reason to shoot you the metaphorical finger, if they aren't already doing it. You don't fire a football coach and then an athletic director after that, because somebody has to hire a football coach, so in their mind (pure speculation on my part because I don't talk to either of them) replacing the athletic director was never in the cards. Not two months after receiving 3 very public gifts over three million dollars, and two private gifts totaling two million more. It would be crazy. I know you are going to carry on. I will touch back with you guys in about 3 months and see what you accomplished besides "flushing more hondos down the drain".

my favorite unt90 move the "if then " statement, this time followed by the reason rv doesn't get any credit. Aka "rv sucks" I have one..if Johnny Jones would've stayed, we would have won 11 games in football that year. He left, and "rv sucks See how illogical works.

we was drinking......and yes, it hurt

Don't hate vito, actually like him. But I don't think he covers enough of the positives. For instance. Carlos Ortiz made another cut this weekend on the PGA tour

Break it down. I said it here, no defense.

Welcome to the chaos. I am sure all 7 questions will be answered in the actual article tomorrow. By now I hope vito has resorted to a diaper, because he has been peeing all over himself in excitement all day. "I get free barbeque, and they care about what I say!"

I didn't even know what a troll was until I looked it up on the internet today. You know the internet, that thing that if it says it it must be true?

I think you were born in 1976. Awesome to hear about multiple mean greeners in your family, for me it is 5. My mother has two, My wife has two, My wifes brother has two, and my sister in law has two. I have.......one, and probably am damn lucky to actually receive it.

It's called "point counterpoint" It used to be one of my favorite skits on Saturday Night Live before he was even born.

was that here or on his other site? First I have heard of this.

How did he give them the finger? By stating the obvious? By saying that until somebody tells him different, he is the A.D. here, and he is not retiring, and he has some things left to accomplish. He is not giving anybody the finger. You guys have so much hate in your heart it is ridiculous. He can't not answer the question. Again, can't wait for the article. This was not an article, it was not in the paper, it was a post in a beat writers blog teasing an article. I think Vito just peed himself for the fourth time today, while drinking milk and eating cookies at his laptop trying to write the actual article, while his computer keeps going ding, ding, ding because of the multiple replies to his original post. With all of this response, I guarantee he is going to write something slanted and make it look like RV is giving everyone the finger. Should be grand.

UNT90......"RV SUCKS" doesn't matter the topic, not a troll

And Jones, and Llama, and Stracke....... Is Aston really fair to throw in there? Because in my mind, she overachieved at 15-16. Oh wait, better not throw Jones in my argument, he went 35-50 his first three years, so Benford >= Jones? As a capitalist and fellow Ulys Knight spirit award winner, Mark I don't like this post. I hope Harry gets filthy rich off of this thing. Side note, Vito just wet his pants for the third time today....... Can't wait for the nightly edition of "How did your day go honey? What all did you get accomplished today?" followed by my blank stare off into space.

This scares me very much. Will you be in costume? Will I see it coming? I should have Sid as a "guest" tailgate chef sometime, if the only motive is to get the daughter out there...........

At this point, We all need to face reality. Look reality right in the eye and make a decision, then decide if we are going to support, or just move on like some have threatened to do. We are going to hire a new football coach. That is a fact. Regardless of the circumstance, we need this Coach to be a good one. I for one will be travelling to the Middle Tennessee game, the La Tech game, and will be tailgating in the same damn spot I have been in for the last 5 years for both of the last two home games, come hell of high water. I will embrace and support this new coach no matter what the circumstance. Can't wait to see the "big article" tomorrow from Brett "Big Game" Vito, because you all realize that the little blog thing was a tease, and he has changed his underpants twice today because of the mileage that this thing has gotten.

Yes, but Mark is the defending champion.

How does "I am not retiring" "We have work left to do" demonstrate this? Not a troll, not a troll. VITO article, UNT90; "RV SUCKS"

If you would like to know, I have no idea what the circumstances were behind How Mack was fired. I was hooking up my tailgate trailer in the blue lot and got a text from my wife that said "It's done, Mac is fired". Secondly, every year my wife and I write down record predictions before the season starts. This year I wrote 3-9, because we had failed in my mind to get a quarterback on campus that was a difference maker, and we had a new defensive coordinator. I wanted in my heart to be wrong. I wanted so badly for us to go in to Dallas and beat SMU. Stupid is a strong word, and I am truly sorry if I have ever called you that, and if I did, it was in fun, because all of you guys are part of a big dysfunctional family of mine by default. We all went to the same university. We all call ourselves alumnus of the University of North Texas. My wife and I are sick and tired of sitting in a room and hearing the question "Where did you go to school?" and seeing the looks on faces that we all get. Why? because we suck in athletics. Those people don't know a damned thing about any of our academic programs, just that we don't play good football. So 13 years ago, we set out to change that perception. We had just been to our second New Orleans Bowl, and we were starting to make some money, so lets help build an athletic center. That first pledge grew into many more things. Our love for the University, our University, and when I say ours I mean everybody, has never changed. So lets get something straight. I don't think I am better than any one of you. I haven't supported this University so that I can get "inside" access. "Inside" access does come with support, I will admit that. When Dan McCarney was hired, I found out who the candidate was the same day you did. When Dan McCarney was fired, I was shocked that it happened so quickly, and saddened that football had fallen so far so fast, it almost seems impossible. This notion of "17" has gotten out of hand, and I know I am to blame. It was a reference in the beginning to the fact that in order to own a suite, you have to donate $15,000.00 minimum annually to the mean green club. There are 15 of those people, and a couple of corporations. Those names can be found in a game day program, pretty much if you are at the $15,000.00 level, then you have a suite. There are a few exceptions because a couple of suites are split between two families. It went to 17 because McNatt and Bruzzy were going to be announced at halftime of homecoming. (Ryan is a suiteholder already) I know this isn't going to help, but please lay off of the other suite holders. I have no idea how they feel about any of this, save 3 or 4 that I socialize with. I can tell you this. Your large donors are not the enemy. They want exactly what you want. WINS, WINS, WINS

so basically, we are all trolls, because some of the things that I say causes discourse and controversy with some of you, and some of the things you say causes discourse and controversy for me. So by definition, we are all trolls, with the biggest troll being KRAM, the defending Ulys Knight spirit award champion. authors opinion, UNT90 is not a troll, because he can only mutter one premise and one only, "ALL THINGS RV SUCK". A true troll agitates on any given topic, with the ability to make a counterpoint to any argument. Tony Benford, UNT90 "RV SUCKS" etc..,...

who told you that was how it went?

just used proper protocol. on another topic, did you just do a screen shot, circle it with some sort of "graphics program" (that is what we called it in the 80's) and re post as a GIF? To quote my favorite dead comedian...... "That is awesome"

A clown? A clown? How did you want him to handle the firing. I have never found any good way to fire anyone. The best way is to just rip it off like a bandaid, but even that isn't easy. Mac is going to receive lots of reasons why he should take it like a man, and he did take it like a man. 10-0 would have been the worst loss in history to that team. getting a little lax on the rules in time of huge crisis I see..

ok let me try it this way for cerebus and tasty greek man (john and lorenzo???) If I create a new account and call myself "Reagan" or "Clinton" or "Cheney", will I be banned or censored for not following the rules?............. Post deleted in 5,4,3,2..........

Yes because stating "i dont plan on retiring" and "there is more to accomplish" is soooo offensive.

well played
