This is a big wren.

Maybe send them over a pizza now and again.

He’s a stud. One the best receivers we have had. Reminds me of Carlos Harris.

Students in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, who have been diagnosed with COVID-19 have been attending parties in the city and surrounding area as part of a disturbing contest to see who can catch the virus first, a city council member told ABC News on Wednesday. Tuscaloosa City Councilor Sonya McKinstry said students have been organizing "COVID parties" as a game to intentionally infect each other with the contagion that has killed more than 127,000 people in the United States. She said she recently learned of the behavior and informed the city council of the parties occurring in the city. She said the organizers of the parties are purposely inviting guests who have COVID-19. "They put money in a pot and they try to get COVID. Whoever gets COVID first gets the pot. It makes no sense," McKinstry said. "They're intentionally doing it." read more: https://abcnews.go.com/US/alabama-students-throwing-covid-parties-infected-officials/story?id=71552514

Great achievement.

What do you predict?

Nice looking athlete.

Mean Green Nation, I hope you are having a great summer! We are busy making plans for the fall semester and for our various fall sports seasons. Last year was another tremendous year for the Mean Green. Momentum is at an all-time high, and we are positioned to remain strong as we head into 2020-21. I am so proud of our coaches, support staff, and student-athletes who continue to raise the bar of excellence as we deliver on our mission of Building Champions and Preparing Leaders. Last year we saw a number of outstanding successes within the fields and courts of competition, in the classroom, and in the community: Recorded an overall winning record for the 3rd straight year Claimed Conference USA Championships in men’s basketball and women’s soccer Recorded highest ever GPA We are also excited about the continued progress in building our key athletic facilities that allow us to further develop our student-athletes physically, academically, and socially. We proudly unveiled our new Lovelace & McNatt Families Practice Facility and have broken ground on our new on-campus golf practice facility. We recently completed working with architects to determine programming needs and basic design for an expanded Athletic Center. As outlined in the Light the Tower Facility Master Plan, we have a critical need to expand this facility in order to better serve our student-athletes in the areas of sports medicine, strength and conditioning, and academic support. While the timing of the athletic center renovation and expansion is fluid due to concerns with the current economic climate, it remains an important part of our plans to continue to build on our momentum. Our Mean Green momentum is real and we want to thank you for the important part you play in our trajectory as an institution. Your financial support and attendance at games are vital to our continued success. You only have a few days to renew your season football tickets. It is very possible that we will not have single game or game day sales for games due to attendance restrictions. Renew your football season tickets by clicking HERE! Finally, if you have not had an opportunity to join the Mean Green Scholarship Fund, please visit MeanGreenScholarshipFund.com today. For as little as $25, you can become a member and support the scholarship and academic endeavors of our 400 student-athletes. On behalf of our student-athletes, coaches, and staff, thank you for helping us Build Champions and Prepare Leaders. North Texas, We Love! Wren Baker Vice President and Director of Athletics

I think why he was invited in was he won 4 straight conference championships with pretty sub par facilities.

Bingo

Any relation to Creighton?

Southern Miss plays home football games at The Rock, but league foes from a time zone away rarely bring many visiting fans. The first thing I’d do as commissioner of Conference USA? I’d blow it up. It doesn’t work. It didn’t work long before the pandemic. It certainly won’t work now. Most of all, the economics don’t work. There’s too much travel, not nearly enough revenue. In many ways, the league was designed – and has been altered over the years – with TV markets in mind. That’s why FIU (Florida Internatonal University) and FAU (Florida Atlantic Univeristy) were accepted as members in 2013, to regain the Florida TV market lost when first South Florida and UCF (University of Central Florida) exited. That’s why UTSA (University of Texas at San Antonio) was accepted in 2013. San Antonio is a big city with lots of TVs. read more: https://www.northsidesun.com/news-breaking-news-sports-columns/its-past-time-radical-change-conference-usa#sthash.PUnfUtCn.dpbs

The 2020 North Texas Coaches Caravan had a different look this year as a live Facebook event due to current social distancing measures. Executive Senior Associate Athletic Director Hank Dickenson met through a Zoom meeting with the head coaches and student-athletes from Mean Green football, soccer and volleyball to discuss the upcoming season and how they continued to work throughout the spring quarantine. Football Head coach Seth Littrell and junior linebacker KD Davis began the virtual event to talk about the cancellation of spring football. On March 12 the NCAA canceled all basketball tournaments and later all sporting events for the remainder of the spring semester. While all football programs are on a level playing field with limited ability to practice or workout, Littrell said he believes his team drew closer and developed during the time away from the game. “We’re getting a team that’s growing closer together and that’s communicating better,” Littrell said. “We talk to guys on the leadership council on a weekly basis where they’re going a great job. We’re also holding position meetings where I’m communicating with guys every day that I normally wouldn’t be, and doing that will help leadership across the team grow overall.” Last season Davis led the North Texas defense with 88 tackles, including seven tackles-for-loss and 3.5 sacks. He is one of the up and coming leaders in the program and is a part of the team leadership council. Usually, Davis works with strength and conditioning coaches throughout the offseason. During the quarantine, Davis has to find time throughout his day to get in his own workout and make sure his other teammates are doing the same. “With everything going on it can be hard to wake up and go workout on your own,” Davis said. “With my mindset, I know I wanted to come out bigger, faster and stronger so I’ve trained every day getting in as much work as possible. I wouldn’t let my teammates and coaches down because it was time to get to work.” read more: https://www.ntdaily.com/north-texas-head-coaches-reflect-on-upcoming-seasons-training-during-quarantine/
