  1. I have to wonder why they don't show the back to back TDs though that occurred...it makes the story more sensational. I am so glad to see this is still making the waves though!
  2. I'll buy it for $2...that's a bargain!!
  3. I am wondering if I should wait till Nike finalizes everything and spits out their product line.
  4. The Yahoo Team Shop has picked up a ton of gear. I have sent that link out to everyone in my building that is Alum (that I know of)
  5. Agreed...but that is with taking a huge hit by Keenum being injured. I would argue that DC is even more important of a hire than the OC since our offense is already in high gear (thanks to Coach C) and we just need to make sure that it is a homerun like the two hires that occurred this week.
  6. Then we have to ask the question as to why he was let go by Houston so quickly??
  7. LOL. I needed that this morning. Thanks! Negative Waves
  8. It has been said that Hines called the plays but I guess I am not referring to the playcalling aspect.....just the presence of him down on the sideline.
  9. Then we do what we can to show him that this is not how we roll. Something as simple as an email or making a point to shake his hand when you are in his vicinity would do nicely. I agree that someone should have had taken charge and said something to the degenerates that don't take a hint.
  10. Then what if opposing coaches have the nicknames of "The Keymasters"??? Bad Idea. lol
  11. Happen to just think about something.... Canales could call plays from the booth. What was missing was his energy....and that needs to be on the field right next to the players. What are the chances of him calling plays next year from the sidelines again like he did when he was IHC?
  12. DMac's other recruits this year My link
  13. There goes condescending dale hansen at work again. All he did was question why he would take this job. Apologies on spelling the coaches name wrong but I am using voice to text
  14. Sorry for the short post I am on the road
  15. How did you get insight from the players on this? Great news btw!
  16. "“You never know where I’ll show up,” Hayden Fry said in a telephone interview from his home in Mesquite, Nevada. “I’m going to New York this weekend to see Barry (Alvarez) get inducted in the College Football Hall of Fame, so don’t be surprised if I show up when Dan coaches his first game." Hellz to the yes.
  17. We have a design program that ranks nationally....put them to work already on conceptual designs! We can incorporate both the Eagle and UNT/NT into the helmet...something similar to what FIU has FIU helmet only vastly superior
  18. It's time to prepare a nickname for this coaching duo.....
  19. Welcome Jam and look forward to seeing more of your posts on the site! GMG!
  20. Harry Can We Get This Posted Up Top For A Bit??
  21. Nike....for the Uniforms
  22. Look I like a solid intellectual conversation as much as the next guy who actually likes to stimulate his brain but in reading just a couple articles on Kevin's site Think Denton I can see that his personality and concerns are not in conjunction with what we are striving for. His meetups involve "adult beverages" and talking about worldly and societal dilemmas. For all intensive purposes we can brand him an intellectual and I am sure he would agree. He would be the type that would argue that a Culture Fair or a Arts Festival would be more beneficial to the school than cranking out a successful sports program. He is entitled to his opinion of course....but I would wager to say that most of this board disagrees with that sentiment. He is the Ying to our Yang at North Texas. We have already long established that this school has plenty of the artistic minded students and alum.....what we are striving to carve out here is a culture that involves more pride in the University and being a "Mean Green" rather than just graduating and moving on. We all can agree that the most successful way to do this is to have successful sports programs that stirs up the Alum base and gets them re interested in the school and what is happening on the campus. We have enough Ying...we need more Yang. The argument that sports doesn't make a university profit is bogus and full of erroneous presumptions. The only stats that people are concerned with are the Revenue-Cost equation and does it leave a positive balance? What you don't see is that where does the public come into play? When was the last time that you saw a intellectual hipster sporting a UNT shirt on a daily stroll outside of Denton? If we relied on the public to hear about our school only based on it's intellectual achievements then we would be doing a giant disservice to the goal of generating interest (both regionally and nationally). We need a winning football team like Dallas's City Council needs an enema! That is the only way I can see us getting those 100k some odd Alum in the area to quit throwing away their monthly mailers from UNT begging for money. How many of us have logged in online and donated even just a modest $100 gift after getting excited about a win...or a change in the program...or an award for the team? Ok...rant is over. Sorry
  23. And in breaking news...there are still disgruntled intellectuals who can't see the bigger picture of what a successful sports program can bring to North Texas.
