Thanks for the update I was about to drive over there shortly, the worst part of the whole deal is I was looking forward to the wings from the place down the strip center

Reality is folks, we need to be happy for acu, unt, and any other low seed in this tournament that's beating the upper seeds. when there is better chance for those smaller teams to recruit better get to the Sweet 16, at some point selection committee won't be able to put all the low speed teams playing each other and knock each of the low seed teams out. March madness allows for true competition, just like the miracle on ice against the Russians!!! Go Mean Green!! It's sweet 16 time, for the mean green Nation!!!

For the UNT game against Purdue, there was a Houston watching party at the wicked dog brewery, on Barker Cypress I think. The organizer said we would have another watching party for the Nova game. So I'll be there once again. Had a great time, the wing place down the strip center had terrific wings. hopefully there will be a few more UNT fans show up in Houston for that game. Go mean green, I think we're going to be in the sweet 16. Playing my Dad and Uncle's alma mater Baylor.

Nice, I'll be there I just have to Google where it is a little bit of your drive from Westheimer and highway 6. It'll be good to eat some good food and watch the game with some fellow fans!!!

I didn't even read who posted about I'd rather have a four-star recruit other than a quarterback. Oh my freaking God!!! I've been on this board for a very long time. I know there's others who have been on this board longer. For UNT to get a four-star recruit at any position, without having to break NCAA recruiting rules to do it. Is an amazing gift from God himself. I think the fan that posted about I'd rather have a four-star recruit at another position, must have graduated from Alabama in another life. Or the posters just trolling us here at gomeangreen.com I guess by faith and Seth latrell and the staff his been redeemed a bit. Based on UNT's recent record in football. Since my Dad's a graduate of Baylor University. I can tell you our defensive coordinator will probably help us out a lot. Even without four star recruits. Of course, there was a time when Baylor University was the dregs of the Southwest conference. So anything's possible. Thank God for UNT's sake is it concerns our football program!!

Wow, you mean I have to go to other sports to see about UNT women's basketball. No wonder I would only see things about men's basketball and I couldn't figure out why I wasn't saying anything about women's basketball. I do wonder why the board administrators thought it was wise to put women's basketball under other sports? No offense to the board administrator I don't want to make that person mad, but really.

Art Briles, I'd certainly give him a shot. UNT needs to win. I would also take a look at coach Dickey. New athletic director; however, coach Dickey rightfully took 500K from UNT, for the way they fired him when he had diabetes then a heart attack, or heart problem at minimum. I don't know if the board of regents would allow him to be rehired. if you think what's going on at a&m is all Jimbo Fisher then you're sadly mistaken.

Well, I can't see one reason why people wouldn't want liberty in their conference. I certainly know why some people don't want liberty University. But can the same be said for SMU, Baylor ETC. When has money in college football been a negative. Every time I watch UT play, especially against UNT, then NTSU in 1988, we all know or should have known that UT was paying the refs full mortgage IE paying off their houses. With the absolutely ridiculous inbound reception to Keith Cash three yards out of bounds in the end zone at War Memorial stadium. I really don't understand the SMU reference, unless you mean that liberty is paying their players. The governor of Texas at the time was contributing to SMU athletics. I don't want to even get into how the son of one of the Pony Express got the pirate fired at Texas Tech, I digress. But, talent always prevails even if it takes years. The pirate's now that Mississippi State. I bet the pirate hates being in the SEC!!! I certainly don't think Liberty University has to pay their players to come play good football, or participate in other sports. Liberty University just probably provides a great college degree. You might not agree with the degree that the students at that college are going to get. But, once again that's their personal choice and their personal decision. That they believe will benefit their lives. Just because liberty spends a lot of money because they have it, if spent the right way doesn't mean that won't buy you quality, professional services. So their athletic department is loaded. That buys good facilities, good coaching, and they can go out and recruit. Then put a quality product on the field. The way UNT looks this year you'd really have to be drinking green Kool-Aid not to think that Liberty is way better than UNT. Regardless of how young their program is. From a business standpoint C-USA should offer liberty tomorrow. I think C-USA would be lucky to get Liberty University.

Maybe littrell should bring in Billy Bean and let him teach the team what losing should feel like and look like.

I know the situation isn't this bad; however, I once attended a UNT Rice game and the score ended up being about 100 or 80 Rice, UNT 20. I sat in the press box where all the big alums for Rice watch the game. My friends granddad was the rice team doctor back in the day. The buffet was the best part of that miserable experience. I had the good sense to stop streaming the radio broadcast at about 27 to 7 around the end of the second half. I've been through this so many times over the years I can't tell you. Tonight I refused to be a masochist like I have been in the past and listen to the game to the bitter end. Based on the upgrade in UNT recruiting talent, facilities etc, and athletic department finances. I don't get it. I guess our staff isn't paying attention to the transfer portal or something. We must be getting out coached like nobody's business. or maybe there's something in the water in Denton. People used to just massacre coach Dickie for the job he did as a coach at UNT. He did more with less financially, talent wise, and facilities than almost any other coach and staff in memory. Except for maybe Hayden Fry or Corky Nelson. Maybe Seth Littrell and staff should try a little bit of stealth recruiting like Dicky did. Then the board crucified Dickie for it. Maybe the kids from smaller high schools in Texas that Dickie recruited had more heart or something along with the talent they brought to the table.

I can't say this for sure, but I would think some of those teams that took quarterbacks in the late rounds, took them because they could run. Most of those quarterbacks taken certainly couldn't pass like Mason fine. I don't think you're going to find Mason fine on special teams. I think a few of those late round quarterback picks, might make their respective teams based on special teams play and not becoming an NFL quarterback. If they do become NFL quarterbacks, that certainly won't be the coaching staff's first thought regarding their utilization.

Who as the last UNT player drafted by the NFL?
UNTMike81 replied to untjim1995's topic in Mean Green Football
Cody Spencer is correct. I can't remember what round but I think he was drafted by the Oakland raiders, I believe around 2004 to 2006.. -

COVID-19 Victim with Mean Green Ties
UNTMike81 replied to UNT 90 Grad's topic in Mean Green Football
As Echoed by others, our thoughts and prayers go out to your family along with your cousin's family as well. To most Covid 19 resembles the flu in many ways, so great majority of infected patients will recover. To the old, folks with Diabetes, lung, heart or other issues it's very serious. The world lost the world's number 1 conjoined twin surgeon to Covid-19 yesterday. The doctor was 73 Yrs. old.
