Everyone should remember that we beat a pretty bad Rice team last week in OT. In the future, we'll compete better against the MUTS, but for now, they have about the best set of athletes in CUSA. We're not able to truly stretch the field with our current personnel on offense... but it will get better. Better O-Line play and more speed at the outside receiver is key. Proud that our D played their arses off tonight.

" Make an indoor facility a priority and put off baseball " I approve this message... as much as I would like to add Men's Baseball, we need to focus our resources on improving our existing facilities. As the study said, minus Apogee, we are basically below average for even CUSA facilities. A multi-purpose indoor practice facility would be huge for us keeping pace and possibly out-pacing our immediate competition.

That Wilson run in the 3rd quarter was amazing. I knew he was fast, but the way he separated from the Rice DB's was freakin' awesome! So proud of our team tonight!!!

Eric Peagram went to Pittsburgh as a free agent running back (not sure if Scott Davis was part of an NFL Team). I remember the 1990 game very well. There was quite a mix of UNT and SMU students on the student side of Fouts, and the field scrum very nearly made its way into a fan scrum in the stands. SMU students may have traveled better to that game than they have to any of the Apogee games. Lots of emotion during that game.

Agreed - impressive young man. This gives me a lot of confidence in our coaching staff's recruiting abilities going forward.

I have a question about playing "Hey Baby"... I have heard HS bands playing this song between the 3rd and 4th Qtrs over the past few years (East Texas HS like Forney, North Forney, Lindale, Kaufman, Terrell, etc.). Did the Green Brigade influence this trend of playing "Hey Baby", or did this trend start elsewhere and the Green Brigade picked-up on the trend?

I also mentioned this in the survey. As a tagline, I think it is fine (combination of SL's Let it Fly with Fly Like an Eagle), but really sounded awkward and forced over the loud speakers, especially being repeated over and over.

I am on record for 4-8, and I had us beating SMU (other wins are Bethune-Cookman, at UTSA, and at UTEP). Getting more than 2 road wins would be really tough... but maybe we have a decent chance to win at Rice based on their Week 1 performance. Or... we could catch the MUTS or Southern Miss on a "down" week at home. Anyway, twill be fun watching this group grow and improve through the season.

Agreed 110% Morris didn't have a good night... not a MiniMac disaster of a night, but not good. Too may overthrows, underthrows, and holding the ball too long. He also had some good, crisp passes too, so there is hope. Coach Harrell was absolutely livid at AM after one of the sacks he took. From a coaching perspective, I didn't like the jump ball play on 4th and 1... that seemed like a new OC still feeling his way.

$20,000 gets you the above information in a nice looking PowerPoint document :-) I think we do need to spend the money to get Smatty as much info as possible so he can make the right decision. Ultimately, the success of a consultant's report isn't based on how many of the suggestions you implement - it's based on whether or not you make the right decision in the end.

Just renewed my season tickets and MGC membership. I trust in Smatty, and I think this (and the Littrell hire) is part of a plan he has envisioned for quite some time. Glad to see the plan is moving forward.

It's hard for me to imagine that Caleb was a HS QB when I see his throws... hope the new staff is able to somehow use him productively. Very glad to hear Shanbour is getting reps as Morris' backup.

Can he grow taller? Check (maybe) Listed at 5'11", which means that he is really 5'10" and a little bit. But a lot of kids grow 1-2 inches between 18 - 20 yrs. I think he is a good find - could be a great find if he develops well over the next couple of years.

Hey, we're a music school - math really isn't our bread-and-butter

Yup - we just need to go to Lubbock and take care of business. We can beat Tech... should be a very good game. If/when we win, Tech probably will feel like they were hosed having to play the CUSA Champ in the first round.

Sent mine tonight and used both president@unt.edu and neal.smatresk@unt.edu . I focused on President Smatresk's desire for UNT to be a Tier 1 university and how athletics is currently damaging that image rather than enhancing it - and that wholesale changes are needed in the athletics department.

Lowest Apogee attendance was 13,142 on 10/8/2011 (Florida Atlantic game). Will we set a new Apogee low tonight?

UNT -- 30 PSU -- 27 Being homecoming, and probably our best chance at a win this year, I think the team has 1 "rally game" in them to squeeze out a field goal victory with a lot of rushing yards. Attendance: 17.5k

Agreed - it looked bad, and the look on a player's face tells us a lot. He definitely needs our thoughts and prayers.

Safeway?

Coach "Cush" has installed quite a cushy defense... no more flying to the ball or hard hitting - just 15 yard cushions on receivers and lot of out-of-place defenders.

Ditto... I'm not waiting any longer - it's time to clean house.

Best. Urinal. Ever. It was quite amazing (shocking at first) when peeing on a wall with water running down the side - but offered a certain sense of freedom. Maybe they should have saved the old Fouts urinal as a museum item.

Graham, TX - just north of beautiful Possum Kingdom Lake. Also the home of former player Tubby Coleman, who was involved in one of the "most damaging" plays in Mean Green history

We lost because we turned the ball over too much... He hopes we improve to have a chance to win next week...
