  1. I agree with you. He is treating these young men like cattle.
  2. However, despite the university’s athletic success, attendance has not matched. As the Mean Green moves to a new conference and closes out a decade-long era, fans, too, should up their game. Attendance at games has been positively linked to how athletes play. No one showing up leaves players feeling dejected and kills motivation and atmosphere at sporting events. Yet, even while playing for seats that remained mostly unfilled, North Texas sports teams continue to perform at high levels. Football had five players on the All-C-USA first team. Two players were named College Football News Freshman All-Americans. Junior quarterback Austin Aune and senior linebacker KD Davis broke school records. After Seth Littrell’s firing in December, a new head coach Eric Morris looks to continue on success laid out in the previous football era. Littrell was never able to win a C-USA title or bowl game in his tenure, tarnishing his legacy at the university among fans. Morris will need to find success early in order to endear himself to fans. Sports — and especially college sports ­­— have always brought people together. They create an atmosphere and feeling that is nearly impossible to get anywhere else at any other time. Supporting athletic teams at your college is a rare privilege that students will likely never get to experience again in their lives, and they must capitalize on this opportunity while they have the chance. Whether your team is winning or losing hardly matters when you’re holding a hamburger and shouting at a sporting event surrounded by your friends and peers, but yelling at and supporting a team setting records and winning games is much more enjoyable. Students have a responsibility to their teams and to themselves to attend games, and with our teams currently playing at such a high level, there has never been a better time before now. As the spring shifts to summer, a new era of North Texas athletics is on the horizon. With things looking up for the university, fans and students must embark on a new journey with the Mean Green, showing support to deserving programs.

  3. I suspect we will soon see an inclusion of UNT-Dallas on the schedule. Sort of feels like we "Owe" it to them due to the fact we are part of the same system. https://untdathletics.com/sports/mens-basketball/schedule?path=mbball https://untdathletics.com/sports/mens-basketball/roster/coaches/joshua-howard/52
  4. Sort of feel like we are saving him from a difficult situation. He knows that we will take better care of him.
  5. Harry mentioned this as well.
  6. Lance White
  7. It could be his retainer case also.
  8. Did Jyaire have any receptions today?
  9. I call BS on that. I have too many subscriptions as it is already.
  10. I am very excited about this upcoming schedule. I really am.
  11. I sure hope so. May have to miss some or all of it due to my girlfriend having a garage sale on the same day.
  12. Kind of neat being termed a "Dominate Mid Major program." That brought a proud feeling when reading.
  13. Here is another one.
  14. Playing off of UNT Lifer's game idea this is a mix of 2 UNT celebrities. Name both.
  15. I think I will go with 7-5 this year. I wanted to go with 6-6 but my girlfriend reminded me that last time I picked UNT with a winning record they beat Arkansas on the road. So I figured what does it hurt to be positive?
