When teams schedule Louisiana Tech, where do they fly in and out of ? Ruston Regional Airport appears to be too small. Do teams land at Shreveport and take a bus to Ruston ? And how far is that ? It's nice to have DFW in our own back yard. GO MEAN GREEN

I'd love to play the University of Houston every year. I'd especially love to play them for the conference championship. Have you made your new stadium contribution yet ? Bought season tickets ? Joined the Mean Green Club ? GO MEAN GREEN

"...for a decade or more" Now that's just not fair. E-mail this guy

When we were in the "Big West Conference" the name of the dorm, "West Hall" was changed to "Big West Hall" logo and all. I thought it was funny. I met a student and asked which dorm he lived in and he replied, "Big West Hall." I'd rather build "Conference USA Hall" GO MEAN GREEN

KRAM...Sources. Maybe not names, but how did this information come to you ? At a meeting ? A party ? Or just the way your alphabet soup lined up ? If true, I like it. If SMU or TCU won't play us, let's go further south to someone that will. I could find something to get rilled up about with Houston once a year. JOIN THE MEAN GREEN CLUB BUY SEASON TICKETS. CONTRIBUTE TO THE NEW STADIUM FUND. GO MEAN GREEN

This is one of the most important things I've ever read on GOMEANGREEN.COM. The article lays to rest some of the myths that have floated around for years. And why should other Texas CUSA teams support a North Texas membership ? Money. Travel isn't getting any cheaper and regional opponents would mean higher attendance. Shorter distances between games should be what conferences are all about. Fans want to watch teams they are familar with. Many of our fans don't know our conference mates. They do know other schools in this general area. Those are the teams we should be palying. GO MEAN GREEN Have you made your Stadium donation yet ?

Offer him a scholarship

Every kid that attends a NT game will want to sit in the so called "wing" section. this will make the end zone seats even more attractive to young families. I like the idea of green bleachers. How about having them anodized ? Hence green with no maintance.

He had that biio page all last season. But he was never listed on the roster. And he's not on the roster now. I was shocked when he left. And I think his departure put NT behind schedule getting back to winning ways. Any time a school record holder leaves the program, the program will suffer. I wish him the best. Maybe he's a NT fan.

I agree with Video Eagle. Invite Baylor to join the Sun Belt. I would really be surprised if they even gave the offer any thought, but what if they did ? A Baylor Sun Belt all of a sudden becomes a good conference. Just that one addition makes the Sun Belt legit. First thing you know, Houston and Rice want in. And in a plain, brown envelope, SMU petitions for a Sun Belt membership.

What ever happened to this guy ? He was one of my favorites. "We are completely in control of the airport."

I contaacted him. Here is his reply. Joe Wow. My bad. Thanks for the heads up. I'll fix it online in just a minute. And for the record, I don't dismiss UNT from the idea of a new conference, merger, etc. I just think UNT makes more sense in a revamped Big 12, WAC, new Southwest Conference, etc. ... maybe with West Division CUSA schools. Again, sorry. I'm surprised Vito didn't call me out on that. Adam Sparks MTSU beat writer BlueRaiders.com editor The Daily News Journal (Murfreesboro, Tenn.) Gannett Tennessee (Nashville, Tenn.)

As per the North Texas on the Square meeting, the Alumni spot ( I'm searching for a word here) will be built nearer the tail gate area. Somewhat away from the Stadium.

I'm still holding out for Kansas State. Big 12 Team. Fair following in DFW area. not a huge powerhouse. and I really like the irony. Last team at Fouts. First team in New. Or maybe somebody else. Have you bought your 2010 season tickets yet ?

I've been meaning to post this. I'd like to see us end the Fouts era with Kansas State, then turn around and open the new Stadium against Kansas State. Sort of a Stadium two fer. I know this is unlikely, but I think Kansas State would make a great opening opponent.

I got e-mails promoting this event almost ot the point of over kill. Hank told me that the jumbotron was moved to the south endzone ( athletic dept side) to focus all attention toward the end the Mean Green would come out. The tunnell I only recently noticed, on the press box side, will be provide field access to two locker rooms on that side. Probably for high school teams. The visitor's dressing room will be on the east or non-press box side. It was a good event and a lot of people were there. Good outreach for the Athletic Dept. GO MEAN GREEN Buy Season Tickets Contribute to the new stadium. We wanted it. Now it's here. Time to ante' up.

I remember when his brother was here at North Texs. Diet Coke Guy. Small world

I recall in the not too distant past, that the area around the concession stands was dirt. Mud when it rained. The aluminum bleachers are also relatively new. I recall a game against somebody when the sprinklers came on during the game. At one time, there were so many lights burned out in the stadium lights, I heard a fan of the opposing team swear that NTSU was spelled out in the exhausted bulbs. It's just an old, worn out, stadium that was not maintained throughout the decades. Only now, it seems, does anyone care to keep the home of the Mean Green in good condition. No I won't miss it. Although I'll always remember the Florida State Homecoming game in the snow that we blew. And the monsoon against Southern Miss. GO MEAN GREEN

Otherwise, we'd have to call All Pro Foundation Repair at 877) MEAN GREEN. Proud UNT alums.

Or Coach Canales

I wish another camera could be added aiming East.

I think it's nice that the Sunbelt Conference is providing those GREEN air compressors and generators. A big thank you to Wright Waters.

I just had a thought. Wouldn't it be cool if former NT great Jordan Case arranged to have Lexus purchase naming rights. DFW fans could choose to go to Ford Field or Lexus Park (Place). Go Mean Green

For me, the most notable thing Banowsky said is, We have it openly. We do, however, believe while you're on the team, you've got to support the team. This is true regardless of which conference we're talking about. As long as we're in the conference we're in, we should support it by supporting North Texas. The question should never be"Who are we playing." Rather, "North Texas is playing."

Good for Colin. however, I don't understand this. My son graduated at a Big 12 school that didn't have a law school. and he went immediately into law school. so what's up ? Colin could have stayed at NT and gone to the law program of his choice.
