  1. When you take a job that puts your name and face before the public you are going to be the subject of public scrutiny. I understand that sometimes this can bring stress into an individuals life and that of their family. If you can't take it then you have no business taking the position in the first place. A football coach or assistant coach at a FCS University is that type of figure. This person should have had the intelligence to have known that when he took the job. I find that incident exceptionaly offensive. I trust that Todd Dodge will handle this incident appropriately.
  2. They announced at the football game that your game stub from that game will get you admitted to the soccer game tommorrow.
  3. He was 11 years old in 1988.
  4. Kim Phillips.
  5. You might have missed this in the paper. http://newsbusters.org/blogs/noel-sheppard...uths-gores-film
  6. One more link addressing the issue of political leadership in University Administrations. http://www.uff-fsu.org/art/polpres.pdf
  7. Yes. http://www.forbes.com/finance/mktguideapps...PersonId=938724
  8. Yes, 1979.
  9. NT hired Lee Jackson, in my opinion, because of the success of John Montford at Tech. Jackson is no Montford. Bataille will prove to be a better hire. We do get political help from Sen. Royce West (a former UTA football player) who supports the law school creation and the formation of UNT Dallas. In addition Sen. Jane Nelson from Denton County is a UNT grad and supports programs. I know that congressman Michael Burgess also has helped with research funding and has two degrees from UNT. We probably have more clout than we have ever had, but we are still behind other schools and battling for limited funds.
  10. AP poll appearances. Highest was 16th. http://www.appollarchive.com/football/ap/a...ll&rows=all
  11. Between 1967 and 1971 North Texas had 20 players drafted including 3 in the first round and one number 2 pick in the 2nd round. We had two quarterbacks selected (Carlin in the 3rd round in 1967 and Ramsey in the 5th round in 1970) Since 1971 we have had only had 15 players drafted.
  12. Agreed, and I think it will continue to improve both on and off the field.
  13. How about a silver grocery bag with the scores engraved after each year?
  14. A Maverick is a stray calf or steer and has recently come to mean someone who is independant or a non-conformist. The Dallas Mavericks abandoned a cowboy hat in their logo and adopted a logo with a horse head. Your committee failed to live up to either definition in following the lead of an NBA team. Is red being abandoned and orange being substituted as a color? Why?
  15. Wasn't Brad Kassell a High School quarterback as well?
  16. http://www.ponyfans.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=24989
  17. I expected Boise to beat OU in the Fiesta Bowl.
  18. Huh? Baylor won the national championship in Women's Basketball a few years ago, and as a Baylor grad told me today "We are competitive in everthing but football and that is not likely to change."
  19. The Buffalo Athletic department says he graduated from North Texas in 1990 with a Bachelors degree. Perhaps you should inform them of their error. http://www.ubathletics.buffalo.edu/footbal...ches/gill.shtml
  20. http://www.usatoday.com/sports/sagarin/fbc07.htm
  21. I think they should have an option that just says "CLONES".
  22. That should be "beat" SLC.
  23. I don't think Dodge got as much time as the SMU and TCU coaches. I did not appreciate his smart ass comment about wanting to ask if we could be SLC.
