  1. Bama fans don't use ponchos...they just grease themselves down with chicken or hog fat...the rain just rolls off...the real meaning of Roll Tide.

    Tech

    Fact: UNT has over 36,000 students and Tech student population is declining. It is a big worry for Tech, as they know they are slipping. They are institutionally trying to stop the trend.
  3. Welcome to pro football at its best.
  4. Maybe Johnny should learn some things by looking over Stephens' shoulder as she schedules.
  5. Visiting team ticket allocations probably is in the contract. So, it changes from contract to contract. Obviously, the visiting school, if it is close to the home school would receive more tickets than a game played a long distance from the visitor's campus. I think that it is still the case that the numbers change contract to contract. Another factor is how many tickets the visitors think they can sell. It is counterproductive for a visitor to get a large allocation of tickets and then having to eat them if there is little demand from their fans. Player comp tickets are always included in the contracts.
  6. No, the biggest injury was a self inflicted one....dropping down to division IAA.
  7. Can't remember the year, but it was one of Hayden Fry's better seasons. We played Oklahoma State in Stillwater and got creamed 70 something to not much for us. Anyway, the NT coaches claimed after the game that OSU had tapped into their headsets and knew all the plays before we executed them...then later, it was rumored that Jimmy Johnson was paying his players after each game. Not a very fond memory.
  8. Adequate concession areas would be nice....the lines are too long sometimes. Also, get rid of those hokie conference banners around the bottom of the floor and put them somewhere in the concourse. Better yet, just show them electronically on the electronic board a couple of times during the game with the SunBelt logo. Also, put the ticket sales further inside the concourse so as to allow people to line up to buy tickets inside instead of lined up out the door...more than one ticket table would be good. Sadly, crowds probably don't dictate those changes right now. However, if we ever had a real crowd for a game it would be a zoo with the current configuration. A drinks only concession would probably speed things up, too.
  9. The Lethal Weapons billboard you referred to featured Byron Gross and Scott Davis.
  10. Well, the SuperPit, like Fouts, is such a dump that I can see why no one of any star power will come to the SuperPit....yes, I am being sarcastic. With such a good facility we are extremely timid in home scheduling. When will they ever learn? Or do they even give a damn. As I have said before, it's just basketball.
  11. It is no secret that Denton is a Dallas Morning News town, and to a lesser degree, a Denton Record Chronicle town. This must be a mission for our alums who live in Fort Worth to call the Star Telegram and raise hell, as they are the only ones that count as the Star Telegram sees it. Are you up for the mission, Fire Fightin Rick?
  12. More fuel for the conspiracy theory.
  13. I saw this morning that the game will be rebroadcast on ESPNU at 11 pm tonight.
  14. I kept waiting for the punch line at the end of the story. Unbelievable.
  15. Pardon me while I take a minute to puke.
  16. The alumni assn. has arranged for it to be televised at the Fox and Hound in San Antonio....don't know if there is more than one Fox and Hound in S.A. Call them and check it out.
  17. Appropriately, the stands are empty on the web site. The art must have been done depicting the third quarter of an SMU game.
  18. Oh, to be young and foolish. However, basketball needs more attention and needs to not be so timid about scheduling. I cannot wait for the Southeast Louisiana vs. UNT game and other jokes. We have the facilities, why don't we have the guts to schedule better home opponents?
  19. GreenJoe Just one wife per husband....this is the bible belt.
  20. Watching at my house with fraternity brothers and wives.
  21. Buy a taco at Jack in the Box and get 39 SMU vs. SFA tickets free....we've seen it before.
  22. No one did more with less than Corky Nelson.
  23. It is my understanding that Mendez-Valdez was not on the WKU health insurance plan....he was covered by Medicare.
  24. Relevance to NT football?
