UNTexas

Transfers can be on scholarship the day they transfer. I know several players who did. The recieving team can't contact them while they are actively playing somewhere else. Once they are released they can offer them. The poaching is stopped that way.

Clay was a Defensive Lineman and became a GA after his eligibility was up. He's a good guy.

I'm going to go with Brock Berglund.

Well said.

Good pick up.

You forgot "in the snow"...

I'm no basketball expert but this coach destroyed a good team. He needs to be fired immediately.

Is it an undersized ball that wasn't put together well?

Any word on stadium beer for the masses?

I saw the UTSA cheerleaders. That was enough to tell me everything I needed to know about that school. Truly sad display. Screw y'alls stats, I have my own metric.

No one can. No one should. They are stupid.

A KFC t-shirt would be far more appropriate.

Remember the "Jump to Conclusion" game from the movie Office Space? This idea easily tops that as the worst idea ever.

I must say anyone who turns down SMU for UTSA doesn't value their education or future past football. Moronic. I'm not saying SMU is the best school ever but good lord I would have made that decision for my kid.

In October for Breast Cancer awareness? Sure.

Does playing an FCS team count as a win towards bowl eligibility? If it doesn't why would we waste our time with them? Either way I'm happy not to play FCS teams.

I hope those September games aren't during the day. Total misery.

It sounds to me he's going to SMU. Smart kid. I'd take SMU over Houston just off the fun factor. SMU is surrounded by really fun stuff, UH isn't from what I recall. Now if it was between Rice and SMU, then there's a debate off location alone. However, North Texas trumps all three on the fun meter in my experience anyway.

I hope you are right. That was fun. UNLV's fans traveled terrible. If we had gotten any of the previous HOD teams the attendance record would have been crushed for the HOD bowl game.

Not even close. When I lived in El Paso we use to go to Albuquerque to get away to civilization. There is fun to be had there. If we played a bowl there you could make the game coincide with a ski trip up to Taos or Angel Fire. It would be greatness.

Come to think of it Oregon State in 95 was the same situation you describe. We won too. Huge win that year because it was such a beat down season.

I only recall one time a good number of people were in the metal seats. Montana State. They came to Fouts as the #1 or #2 1aa team. Both end zones had some people in them but all would have fit in the main structure of seating. Maybe there were other games this occurred at after I was relegated to no man's land by the G for a decade before I returned to the metroplex. I didn't catch many games until ESPN3 allowed it. The facilities have come a very long way... It's hard to think how bad they were.

Yes sir. I played for all four of Simon's years. (94, 95, 96, & 97) 94 was a very good group of players. Two a Days ran off a lot of players. The people left were guys who wanted to play football and win. I was too young and stupid to realize Simon was trying to make people quit. He called it Camp Sparta. We stayed in West Hall and so many people quit and left a in the middle of the night the coaches left a box to leave your keys in at the front desk. We called it the Midnight Train. A camp like that would be illegal now. It was misery. But damn could that team play. We almost took down Oklahoma State and should have beaten Boise State who went on to lose in the National Championship game. Very fun and memorable season. Letterman's Association is a good idea to contact. I can't believe it's been 20 years.

I've got a question or perhaps just a request. I know it's been a long time but there was a reunion of the 1994 football team around the turn of the century. I was wondering if anyone knows if there will be a 20 year reunion coming this upcoming season. The significance, other than it being 20 years, is it was a conference championship team but arguably more important it was the team that got us back into Division 1 football. If anyone hears anything about another reunion can you please post it here because some people weren't tracked down last time and I know some guys missed out that would have loved to seen everybody last time. Not just players either. I can promise y'all coaches, equipment managers, trainers, Athletic Department staff, fans, ect where a huge part of that team. It was a really special group of people and I would love to see people from that year. I saw some at the HOD Bowl and it was great. Some of the old timers who follow UNT football would agree it was a great group of folks and a damn good team. Hopefully this is a good off season post!

Good. I don't want him to leave.
