  1. Need to get RAs more involved. Lead "parades" from dorm to dorm to the Pit. Get the famous white tent out in front of the Pit slinging free sloppy joes to students before every game - though I guess those ideas would only work when school's in session. Maybe we need to have a family game promotion, similar to football, but once the break has started. Discounted or free four-pack of tickets for any Winter Break game to all students. And buy a mailing list for Denton County households and send an offer blast good for four free tickets at any game over the break.
  2. Can we use a few of our on-campus shuttles when school is out to bring a few busloads of students from designated pick-up spots throughout the Metroplex?
  3. Only question is will they spend that extra year at North Texas?
  4. After Tylor Perry, the AD's gonna have to start digging into GoMeanGreen.com for new HOF members.
  5. Including their starting QB for all 12 games who has already committed to Liberty.
  6. Very unlikely. He thinks Mean Green fans should have been satisfied with Littrell's six bowl appearances because we "aren't a Texas or OU."
  7. Disappointed the game didn't allow us to see Mason, Cotton, and Vice.
  8. Two more home games before students are back, then hopefully the athletic department is going all out to try to compete with last year's record-breaking numbers.
  9. I love the photo Rice chose for this graphic. Their player has the same expression on his face that the social media team probably does reading all of the shit they're getting for losing to an NAIA team.
  10. Dillard's hasn't gone bankrupt yet?
  11. Yes please. Get former Mav great Josh Howard in the building!
  12. Rice needed a game-winning layup with 5 seconds left to beat 0-11 Alcorn State by 2 the other night, too.
  13. I bet teams like Oregon State agree to come here, but they dictate the date - they make sure we play on a holiday week when attendance is lighter. I hope we return the favor. According to Burton, SMU only agreed to play the women this season if they made it a MTE and had a guaranteed win (Chicago State) out of it. Also hurts that this rivalry game is on December 19th.
  14. Big game and early game (6pm) tonight, so get there if you can! Ladies swept SMU last year but the Mustangs (6-5) just beat TTU (11-2) the other night.
  15. Should be a win, but will be a tough one, and hopefully there's a big enough crowd to get us to the finish line. Some of the "old timers" might have to stand in the student section again... 👀
  16. I laughed my ass off on some of those shots that hit the top of the backboard. 🤣
  17. Yeah, this season might be a wash. We have only three weekend home games in conference play and they're all in consecutive weekends in late January/early February: FAU, UTSA, and Tulane. The AD should be working to fill the stands for those games. I'm also hearing there's a big push to get a good crowd (especially students) out for the penultimate home game in March against Wichita State.
  18. There's nothing wrong with an average D.
  19. What a turnaround from 52-10 last season. Beat Westlake!
  20. Respect to him for also playing in the bowl game. We will need him.
  21. Rematch of the 2002 New Orleans Bowl, only different Eagles and different Bearcats.
  22. I don't know how much time admissions offices need, but maybe ESPN could help by rearranging some programming and making sure all non-CFP bowls are played before the new year.
  23. The week the portal opens is always a kick to the nuts even if it's been happening for several years in a row now. The immediate fix to me is opening the portal after the bowl season. Let's not make the non-CFP bowls completely useless, okay? Then figure out an agreeable limit to number of transfers. Some will say it's unfair while coaches leave all the time for more money/better opportunity, but truly that's only the case for a few assistants. Head coaches are not moving on to four schools in four years. And while our NIL fund will likely keep playing catch-up, I'm optimistic a few more years and things will start to balance out again. There will be enough horror stories - whether that's less playing time or unfulfilled NIL promises - for players to actually put more cliche "prayer and consideration" into their offseason decision. However, we (the program) needs to do its part, too. Keep developing a reputation as the place for offensive stars to shine. Put your senior stars in a position to realistically get drafted or signed to the NFL/UFL/CFL. Win bowl games, win conference championships while the league is wide open, win on national TV, win on Homecoming, win in front of your biggest crowds, beat your rivals.
  24. I currently have two tickets if anyone wants them. Section 124, front row - near our bench and behind the dancers one section from the tunnel.
