4352 is a good number. I'm wondering how many of those there tonight were there because of the freebie. The Pit Crew was big and loud, but they get in without additional charge anyway. The only difference I saw was some FAU fans in "50 yard line" seats. I hope we don't do a freebie basketball game again.

OK...So do I get to sit in my reserved seat tonight ? Or since it's free admission, is seating "first come, first served ?"

I'm planning to go. Even the Wife unit is going.

i've seen the picture of the first class at NT. As I recall, the photo was taken above what is now Thomas Ethan Allen furniture of the historic Denton square. I didn't count but the number was certainly under 10. Probably 7 as you suggest.

I could have done without the "I love you man. Mean Green. HA" What does "HA" mean ?

What would irk Louisiana Tech the most ? Having Louisiana-Monroe join the WAC or feel the need to join the Sun Belt to get away from the Cajuns ?

To establish residency, it says he'll have to "serve a year." Man, they're tough in Missouri. Get a picutre of Rachel Welch and a little hammer and start digging.

"If it don't cost nuthin', it ain't worth nuthin."

I agree. And, it occured to me, this might keep JJ interested in staying to see how the story ends. Welcome to frosh Mitchell. Go Mean Green (is Missouri a four year school now ?)

A lot can happen in the mind of a 18 or 19 year old kid between January 26 and October whatever. Not the least of which is change his mind. I hope he comes to NT, but I hope we're not just giving him a place to hang out until he is ready for the NBA draft.

The paper said the only potential snag at this point is whether Mitchell will be admitted into UNT. Holy cow...That's quite a "potential snag."

I saw everything except the date.

I find it ironic that NTerock is looking for a hooded sweatshirt. I'd love to buy several GREEN crew neck sweatshirts but I can't find them. I would have never thought to look at JC PENNEY's. And remember everyone, if we want to see NT gear in local department dtores, we need to buy that gear from local department stores. If it sells at Penney's, you can bet that other retailers will notice and stock Mean Green gear at their stores.

The crowd looked great tonight. Fans were spread out all over the Coliseum. Pit Crew was out in force again also. They all got a good show tonight. I hope everyone comes back February 3 against FIU. GO MEAN GREEN

Although one of my favorite plays was a down post hook at the bulldozer.

Silver, you jogged my memory. Now that I think of it, I think we had "first choice" as far as the venue and declined to host the game because of our poor attendance record. It was ours to choose.

I was there along with my 7 month pregnant wife. We flew to Reno on the team plane. We were impressed with how mannerly the football team was. Since it was a charter, a player was chosen to sit in the cockpit for each take off and landing. Although the only name I remember is QB Greg Carter. The team stayed in Sparks NV. to avoid distractions before the game. When we landed, the sky was blue and the temperature was moderate. At game time, we had every kind of weather possible except sunshine. on of the fans, Larry Wisdom I think, went out and bought a giant roll of plastic and many of the NT fans took shelter from the wind and rain and snow under the plastic. I may be wrong on this, but I recall this being the first game played in the first 1-AA playoffs ever. And I also remember this game as having the first ever NCAA "shoot out" tie breaker. Per my memory, each team had a first possession with no score, and on the second, we failed to score and Reno kicked a FG to win. And I remember Corky kicked the headlight out of the Reno ambulance. Also a NCAA record. I don't remember a delay getting back home. Here again, the skies were blue and the temp moderate. It was a great trip. And I was most proud of my wife who sat through the entire game, cold but without complaint. GMG

There's not much about NT at the "fanbase" page. North Texas played DePaul home and home. When the Blue Demons came to Denton, and I was there, they were ranked numbeer 1 in the nation. The previous year, Kenneth Lyons and Mark Agire had a real battle in Chicage. Lyons had not forgotten when Aguire came to the Coliseum. depaul won, but not until after Lyons threw Aguire over the North Texas bench. GO MEAN GREEN

Is 2 feet of snow the opposite of 94 feet of heat ?

I like the Smitty helmet

How could I get in touch with the director of the Cheerleaders or the head Cheerleader ? e-Mail or telephone number ?

I'd rather be asked than ignored.
