Syd's father was a running back at North Texas.... http://www.etfinalscore.com/Football/174667/sydvicious-moore-continues-to-dominate-for-van

On further review you are correct....Marcus Trice and Cam Feldt were also 4 star transfers.

WR Darius Terrell was a 4 Star 2010 Rivals recruit.

HOME: W Idaho (Northern team will bake in the hot Texas sun on the east sidelines) W Ball State (See Idaho game) L Middle Tennessee (Totally dominated the Green last year) L Rice (Bowl win last year) W UTEP (3-9 Record last year with new coach coming in) W UTSA (Absolute must win) AWAY: L at Ohio (9-4 team destroyed ULM in bowl. Mickey Tettleton's son returns as third year starting QB) L at Georgia (Let's hope the score is respectable) L at Louisiana Tech (Too much offensive firepower for us to stop them) W at Southern Miss (0-12 last year) W at Tulane (Let's celebrate the win on Bourbon Street!) L at Tulsa (Too good for the Green) 6-6

This schedule is tremendous. I see myself going to at least three of the road trips and am really look forward to a weekend in New Orleans. After the 2013 season is completed I wonder how many of our home games will make this top 10 all time attendance list. Top All-Time Crowds Attend. Opponent Date 1. 29,437 Baylor Sept. 6, 2003 2. 28,315 Baylor Aug. 31, 2000 3. 28,075 Houston* Sept. 10, 2011 3. 26,012 Navy Nov. 10, 2007 4. 25,231 SMU Sept. 9, 2006 5. 23,743 Rice Sept. 11, 2010 6. 23,647 Army Nov. 21, 2009 7. 23,112 Tulsa Sept. 17, 2005 8. 22,837 TCU Sept. 1, 2001 9. 22,785 Tulsa Sept. 22, 2008 10. 22,750 SMU Oct. 6, 1990 *Apogee Stadium

I will be out of town for the game but I am willing to help KRAM ahead of time with sponsorship and silent auction items.

I checked out the 2010 Team Photo this morning. Clearly there are smiles on a few of the players that do not look right.

Yes George said in the pregame show that Jacob has a foot injury and will be out for a week.

I agree....I look forward to seeing Zed wearing Green!

Ridiculous to call a long time assistant at Boise State, Colorado, Army and Oregon State a moron...... Thanks for your time at North Texas Coach Rid and good luck in the future.

I had a good time watching the game and chatting about Mean Green Sports at Rudy's last night. Thank you UNT 90 Grad for setting this up!

The Watch ESPN website does list the game to be on at 7PM tomorrow on ESPN3.

Mason Y'Barbo moved over to center at MUTS when Fortenberry was injured.

I have made the purchase and will be huddled up with my wife in front of the computer screen rooting the Mean Green on!

After enduring the frustration of a 17-53 record over my 5+ years of following the team, I would be ecstatic if the Mean Green received and accepted a bowl invitation!

I have stayed at the team hotel for road games many times the last two seasons. It is an understatement how focused Mac is at the team hotel and he is definitely not in the small talk chatty mode like he might be at other functions.

Yes, Coach Mac at the Radio Show last night said that Delgado is no longer suspended and will play against Arkansas State.

Thanks TFLF! I attended the MUTS game. It was a great trip to Nashville but of course it has taken too long to get over the game....... after reading your post, I am officially in a better frame of mind! Here's to a great finish to the rest of the season!

Green 27 MUTS 21

To my recollection, here is a majority of what was talked about during last night's show..... -Mac was in a really good mood last night. It was a well attended event including the coaches wives of McCarney, Quartaro, Nelson and Skladany. -Mac said the team during his time as North Texas Head Coach has won the next game during the season in which they have had more than one week off between games. -The coaches took Saturday off this past weekend for the first time since July. On Sunday they arrived early to break down game film of the MUTS vs Mississippi State game. Even though the Sunbelt's leading rusher RB Benny Cunningham is lost for the season with an injury, MUTS does have a group of younger talented RB's to replace him. MUTS does use a Hurry Up Offense. -Zac Whitfield was first approached in spring ball to move to Cornerback. The actual change from RB did not occur until August when it was determined he could not break into the top 3 RB positions. -+6 Turnover Margin for the season which is very good except we have only recovered four of the opposition's fumbles. Mac said that must improve. They work on ripping the ball from the ball carrier every week in practice. -Five Sunbelt teams have an over .500 overall season record which George said is the most they have ever had in the league. There is a five way second place tie at 2-1 in the conference with Troy close by at 3-2. -George made mention of Zach Orr being the Sunbelt Defensive Player of the Week which has not happened in a while. -Antoine Jimmerson's two receiving TD's marked the first time a North Texas RB has had two TD receptions in a game in 10 years. -A question from the audience was asked to Mac about the status of any injured players. Mac said he has a policy that he only talks about injuries if it is season ending which is the case for Derek Teegarden with a broken finger in the ULL game. Mac does not want the opposition to know that a particular player has a specific injury and the opposition might use that information to their advantage. -A question was written on a napkin asking if Will Atterberry was given a game ball from his performance against ULL. Mac said all the coaches determine who gets game balls and the decision was made to give one to Jimmerson and another to Coach Skladany. Mac went on to talk about how well Atterberry played. He said Will is a very coachable player as he does everything they ask of him from directional punts to deep punts to really high punts. Mac also complimented Zach Olen's performance. -Facebook with Poppy: -Any chance we will see more of Carlos Harris? Mac said Carlos is smart enough and skilled enough to see more playing time. However with him being a true freshman not everything has clicked yet particularly when it comes to blocking but Mac does see Carlos with more playing time very soon. -Comment about the OLine only allowing three sacks this season all of which were against Kansas State. Mac commented about how well Coleman Feeley and LaChris Anyiam were playing. This season is the most Coleman has played in his career and LaChris "had one foot out of door last year" but fortunately stayed on the team. Only six Offensive Lineman have played in games this season. -As always when the radio show comes back from a commercial break the audio of a prior week highlight play is played. When they played back George's play by play call of Jimmerson's 72 yard screen pass, Mac said that replay gave him goose bumps all over his arms. GMG! BEAT MUTS!

A rare article for the Mean Green on page one of the Dallas Morning News Sports Page..... http://www.dallasnews.com/sports/college-sports/unt-mean-green/20121015-north-texas-gets-rare-chance-to-show-off-fruits-of-football-commitment-with-tuesday-s-nationally-televised-contest.ece

I complied the list of stats for games that I felt DT played good in and it was for his support. He has been bashed by many of this board since the Texas Southern game and I wanted to point out that he has played some good games in his career.

2012 LSU 8-21 143 yards 2 TD 1 INT KSU 25-28 213 yards 1 TD 0 INT FAU 18-30 251 yards 2 TD 1 INT 2011 Indiana 10-20 201 yards 3 TD 1 INT ULM 23-39 332 yards 3 TD 0 INT WKU 20-35 254 yards 2 TD 2 INT Troy 31-38 331 yards 2 TD 1 INT 2009 Ark St 3-3 60 yards 1TD 0 INT

I have attended every game that Derek Thompson has played in his North Texas career except for watching two road games this season on TV.....we all know Coach Mac prides himself in winning the turnover battle and our QB not getting sacked which obviously can limit the chances Derek takes or the plays he can make....I have seen too many good games from Derek to not feel confident in him for the rest of the season and next year.
