  1. Agreed. Trajectory is not in your favor.
  2. I drove by this twice today and it's in a great spot. Can't wait till they put the flag up for good. You can see it well from either 35E or 35W. If they had gone any further south, it would be a lot harder to see from 35E. Plus it is right in that corner made by Bonnie Brae and the 35 service road. Count me in the job well done camp.
  3. I think what you are talking about is actually a canvas/tarp material. It is there because that area becomes a dusty/muddy mess once you add sweat, water, sports drinks, etc. Link
  4. I've always heard soccer coaches say that's just one of the things players get used to.
  5. Didn't some consultant say that the majority of Allen Stadium's problems were due to the architect's mistakes more so than Pogue's?
  6. Nothing Bundt Cakes Cupcake Training Grounds OR The Classic "Todd" Dodge of Denton IPF
  7. It's amazing what hiring a graphic person has done for this department. They have sold these packages for quite a few years now but having cool graphics and emphasizing the social media aspect of those graphics has certainly made these things pop a lot more. I still think that, of all the hires WB has made, that may very well be the best one!
  8. I thought it was a sweet and clean look! And based on how the players reacted to them, I'd expect to see them again.
  9. And the University of Houston and now Miami made different decisions that they felt are best for their people. I don't see why that makes one classy and the other not.
  10. So the 100+ players, coaches, and staff who travel with the team should play a football game while Florida/their families get hit by one of the largest hurricanes in the history of the Atlantic Ocean?
  11. Looks like visitor tickets are in 116-120 and 218-219 LINK 2017_FootballSeasonTickets.pdf
  12. I would think that an additional benefit is the data the system collects. Requiring name, email, mobile phone, etc. allows them to collect very valuable data for when they graduate. Most importantly, that mobile phone number is huge. Who changes mobile phone numbers anymore? So now they have a great way to reach former students. In addition, they can see what games, sports, etc. each student attends. This will help with targeted sales calls/marketing down the line. It's another smart move by WB & Co.
  13. I agree with that, and I would hate to see any of that rerouted to pay for a football game.
  14. I couldn't disagree more. If UNT alums, fans, and city of Denton businesses have money to throw around like that, I would much rather them send those financial resources to the SE Texas region that is going to require a lot of financing to rebuild and rebound from the devastating weather they have dealt with the last week. Spending those resources to ensure a football game happens seems pretty wasteful at this point. If they can get here on their normal budget, then great. Let's play a game. If it requires extra finances, reschedule or cancel.
  15. I'm sorry I didn't phrase it exactly how you would have. I agree with you that they made a thoughtful decision that put human beings above the game of football, and I respect them for that. I was merely addressing the point that was made about it being hard for the football team to get out of Houston.
  16. The Houston decision must be out of respect to fans. The team is already in Austin, so there's more to this decision than just getting to SA.
  17. I say let whoever gives you the best shot at a big return return kicks. Names like Devin Hester, Deion Sanders, and Desmond Howard all come to mind. Special teams can be a huge game-changer. You can't play the game of football worried about injuries all the time. Play guys who give you the best shot at winning at all times.
  18. I agree with the frustration here. She should at least be trained enough that if she doesn't know the answer she finds you someone who does, even if she's a bookstore employee. It should not be this hard to give them your money. I would imagine, from what I know of the guy's history, that Ryan Peck will feel the same way. This was a dropped ball. It should not be the customer's responsibility to find out the benefits if he's standing in the store asking questions. That's on them.
  19. But why didn't they release the uniforms on a Saturday so people who work could pay more attention? ;)
  20. Anyone notice in the video there are 4 helmets? Green Chrome, Silver Chrome, White, and Matte Black? These uniforms, in general, just look more fresh. I dig it.
  21. Instead of a banner, we should get out in front of the P5 schools and fundraise for THIS
  22. $60 is dirt cheap if you look at the actual benefits. They'll get their $60 back quickly.
  23. As mentioned above, this is nothing new at NT. It's just the first time I remember seeing them call games "premium" vs. just having a higher price for certain games.
  24. Maybe Lincoln just needed to make some salary cap room for the next guy
