I was holding my breath hoping we could get under 100. I kept looking and was convinced that they'd forgotten us completely. I saw Sun Belt teams, and CUSA teams. Then, I saw SMU at #76. And then, to my amazement, North Texas at #75. And they mentioned our 4 Sun Belt Conference titles. Hurry football season. GO MEAN GREEN

You kids stop throwing food and get to English class or I'll call the principal.

I've heard of the Kilgore Rangerettes, and the Tyler Apache Belles but I've never heard of the Texas State Strutters. Is the football team also called the Strutters ? Does this mean the Texas State Strutters also will be forced to travel from Ruston LA. across half a country to Seattle, WA ?

M-Movement?-The WAC already made a play for North Texas, and wisely UNT turned it down. The SBC is no longer the lowest ranked conference as the WAC is struggling, and the MAC is the next target in the pecking order. If conference commissioner Wright Waters can negotiate a “creative” and more lucrative TV deal after 2012, and the members don’t chase the quick buck, the SBC could be the most stable non-BCS conference in the country. Who would of thought? W I S E L Y Who'd of thought it indeed. ? GO MEAN GREEN

And one has never played a down of football.

I spoke with a physician yesterday whose Mom still lives in Ames Iowa. My doctor friend lives in Denton. He says every time he speaks to his Mom, she asks aboout "Coach Mac." He told me the story of her having a difficult time of loading groceries in her car at the "High-V" supermarket. It was Coach McCarney that came over to help her. She thinks he's "the best ever." And she hopes he does well at North Texas. Me too. GO MEAN GREEN

So now the WAC streches from Ruston LA. all the way to Seattle, WA ? That's a bunch of airplane ride. Go Sunbelt GO MEAN GREN

I'm driving this morning (wed) and I heard an ad for the neew TV series, NECESSARY ROUGHNESS. What ? Has anyone heard of this ? The ad said the premier was tonight. I didn't catch when or what channel. Do you suppose the 'Dillos are back on the field ? Is Coach "Straight Arrow Guerro back at the helm ? And what about those smartty pants Texas Colts ? Ohhh...I hate those Colts. GO MEAN GREEN (armadillos)

What kind of relationship did DD and Vito have ?

Welcome to being a real live supporter of North Texas Athletics. Congratulations. We need more supporters like you. GO MEAN GREEN

Good points 90 Grad. I guess it's just me. I don't think sports stories about other universities should lead in front of stories about North Texas. In fact, I don't listen to KNTU to hear about other schools. Is that a shot at KNTU ? Well, if the shoe fits. To be as fair as possible, there was a story about a North Texas track athlete well after the story about Texas and OU. I don't want to hear about the Red River game or how much assistant coaches at OU are getting as a bonus on KNTU. As I said, I listen to hear the Channel 8 news. Dale Hansen can cover Texas and OU well enough. If there's non-sports news about another university, fine. Tell me. Sports on KNTU, at least college sports, should be limited to NT.

I listen to KNTU on the way home to hear the Channel 8 news. Before the Channel 8 news comes on, they have some students reading "rip and read" news. Tonight, I heard 2 stories on Oklahoma football and one about Texas football. Not a word as to whether North Texas fields a football team or not. Hey KNTU...We're the Mean Green This post has been promoted to an article

I've always resented the fact that visiting fans (football and basketball) can walk up to the ticket window 30 prior to kick/tip and get tickets in the same area Mean Green season ticket holders sit. I know the goal is to sell every ticket possible, but I'd sure to explore the notion of only selling general admission tickets on game day. Force people to either buy season tickets or sit in the end zone or with the visiting fans.

Also, notice La Tech refered to it's own conference as "they" instead of "we."

I'd love to see a link. Are these "pop-up" canopies ? Green w/ white or white w/ green ? And these are for purchase ? We're not talking rental where the Athletic Dept sets them up on game day. Mine to keep ? GO MEAN GREEN

Driving to work Friday, I saw a North Texas beer cooler that had blown out of a car or truck. It had "North Texas" and the new "stylized Eagle" on the side. I started to stop and pick it up. but thought it was unseemly to be chasing a beer cooler on the side of the road. I wonder where this came from ? If I can find one, I'll going to buy it. Or maybe two. Great find on the clock. Let's buy this stuff up so merchants will see that Mean Green branded merchandise will sell. GO MEAN GREEN

S M Who

There's an easy fix for this. Just paint a sign on the front that says: North Texas Intermural Field The biggest non-varsity student rec field in America.

Instead of mis-saying our name, the color guy could take viewers on a quick tour of the stadium between plays and during time outs.

I'm sorry. I meant a seating chart with Mean Green fan's names included. Who is sitting where.

We really need a seating chart. Somebody ? GO MEAN GREEN

People only. No livestock

I may be mistaken, but I think that's the coolest thing I've ever seen.

I, for one, am glad that you will not be "PEING" any higher than that.
