I like these ideas and I am really enjoying the support being shown for our situation. In regaurds to the Mean Green club I'm not sure how the scholarships work but I do know that we (cheerleaders) are not considered athletes. We are a spirit group so something like the basketball game or along those lines might be a lot better. Please keep the ideas coming though. Thank you all

A tradition im very proud of and one that I would love to restore to UNT

This seems to be getting away from the main point of this topic really quick. Again thank you for your appreciation

I asked her before I posted anything but thanks for your concern. She was on the phone with me and told me her email and we both thought a MeanGreen blog would be ok. If you'd like I will ask her to post it up here and I will remove my post. Either way thanks for the support and the birthday was a blast. I'd do it again anytime

I'm a little lost now. Are you meaning that you want them to sing the part that says fight? they are cheerleaders not a choir. how would you suggest they make it better?

well as far as scholarships go no the cheerleaders do not recieve any help in paying for school. i see them at everything i go to handing out stuff and being friendly to people. i also see them when i go out to certain places to eat that happens to be where they work. i personaly am impressed that they make the time to balance school work and cheerleading; some of them even have multiple jobs. as far as the not saying UNT or EAGLES yes that is true. they were told not to start or go along with any chants or cheers that involve that. i dont recall the cheerleaders this year cheering while someone was down. i did see part of them try to start one but then the others told them to quit when they realized a player was down. nobodys perfect. I have also never heard of the talons doing any cheers or anything about them contacting or talking to cheer in any way to work on any. having people in the stands to help get them started sounds like it would be a good idea. I really like that bowl game cheer personally but again it says EAGLES which rules it out according to the Ath Department. Now down to the comment about what was posted on facebook. i saw the post and it was plainly "The athletic department has been full of bad decisions lately… so lame". however for those of you who dont know the cheerleaders have been without a sponsor or coach, whatever you want to call it, since about the second home game. thats what this comment was in reference to. so if you would like to talk to him please feel free and if you find them let me know please. also if any of you have recamendations for cheers im sure they would be greatful for your help since they get tired of the first and ten stuff too. i also am wondering where all the hostility towards the cheerleaders comes from? did they do something horrific before i started here five years ago?
