The lack of DT bodes well for QB competition and possibly shared responsibilities. It worked for ULL. At this point, I just want Ws, but I think this is a good sign overall that the QB situation will not just be DT.

Because SMU is paying their players, that's why.

So, I've been here for like three years and when I came school spirit and pride was...alright. Not good, not great. I was mostly apathetic to football and school spirit but there was a decent amount of pride. Sophomore year it grew a little and last year, even more. Go drive around campus. One out of every two students is wearing a UNT shirt. I remember my move-in day and it wasn't like that, neither was when my girlfriend moved in, or last year. The hashtag #UNT17 is trending worldwide. Students are legitimately excited about attending here...the fact that the campus is so green right now proves that we are their FIRST choice to come to college now. UNT dorms are overflowing to the point of 3 kids in West rooms, new dorm plans and they are even putting kids up in hotels. I mean, with the new Union, stadium and enormous amount of renovations+plus the media from the CUSA move, there's a ton of excitement around campus now. This game, the Idaho game, is gigantic. Huge 100 year celebration, chance to start off with a blowout and send these new kids back to the dorms going, "Man, this team is a LOT better than I've heard." That way, they come back. And they keep coming back. Potentially a huge crowd. We cannot afford to waste this opportunity this year and that's why when I hear people accepting the idea that we won't be great this year, I refuse to accept that. We can't afford that. We need to take advantage of this NOW. It's not just me. We now have real apparel flying off shelves at real stores, cars are adorned with UNT gear everywhere...I know this article has been said before but it really was just noticeable as I was heading to the Rec. I've harped on this since the year ended for football last year, but it has really exploded this year. Please, UNT, take advantage of this and don't fall back into the "typical ol' NT" Keep these kids excited.

Already grabbed mine. Worth every penny.

Way too much Denton hating up in here.

This is huge! But guys, the administration doesn't support UNT athletics. This will pass.

Hope to get my hands on one!

Self-imposed absence from this place starting today. Jesus Christ.

Surprised Orr isn't on the list. We have two potential draftees this year.

Terrible.

Dajon is an upgrade. He'll be starting soon.

I don't even care. Just freaking win.

I'm okay with this. Still see 6-6 in the cards. Not great. But it's okay. As long as Mac will open the freaking playbook.

If DT can figure out how to get in the endzone...get it done. He's okay until we get inside the 20.

Keep us updated, please. Really want this shirt.

Good times, good times...

My ten seconds of fame. Well, like second.

I'm all over it! So excited to make one mine

I was referring to the guy complaining that they were Chancellor jerseys, sorry. And, yeah, the regime that ran the bookstore was awful. Likely why administration dumped them.

They approved CUSA move. They have to approve a budget increase for sports. In CUSA, we can't compete with our budget.

Visitors are by the student section, team and fans. Be weary, they get nasty...haha.

Here's a recap from my visit: Ton of brand new UNT Nike apparel. A TON of different designs and varieties. Way better hat selection too. It's really excellent. They have so much new apparel that's really cool and, like I said, all NT. Not generic or that ugly off brand cheap stuff the old store used to sell. I think our apparel has finally turned the corner. Told everyone that B&N would be huge but everyone blew me off. Furthermore, I CANNOT BELIEVE WE ARE COMPLAINING OVER THE NIKE REPLICAS. I mean...holy shit. We finally have real deal replica jerseys for an incredibly explosive player who did great last year but fell victim to injury...and you're complaining? Who'd you want? Derek? Orr, maybe, but unless you're JJ Watt, defense doesn't sell massive amounts of jerseys. When people see Chancellor streaking down the field, that's who they want. But, for real, it's a bigger deal that y'all think...it's replica Nike jerseys. Not the cheap crummy ones...Nike ones that mirror our real jerseys. Personally, I think that's huge because they look so high quality, make us look big time and were probably expensive to manufacture. They look better than the ones the players wear. It's huge...most schools at our level just have the OT style ones...not the real deal Nike replicas. Stop complaining...this is huge and I bet they'll sell a lot. Got a lot of responses to my tweet about them. I'm going to buy one sometime next week. Yes, #3 is all that's there because 3 and 35 are the only big name stars we have. Chancellor is a badass. I was surprised no DT, but I take that as a good sign the AD probably told them not to mass product a backup QB's jersey.

I literally just spit coke all over my car. Thanks.

2-3. Solid across the board, QB competition is great news because anyone is better than Derek. Anyone who thinks we are going to be terrible next year needs to throw typical NT expectations out the window. This team is solid. 6-6/7-5 with a loss in a bowl game.

I'm calling bullshit.
