  1. Presuming that OU or SMU wanted film of Southlake Carroll, where would they get it ? I know each university exchanges their game films, but is NT obligated to give another school a high school film ? Thanks Boise
  2. The first time I went to College Sation, about 20 years age, I wanted to get a look at the Aggies and of storied Kyle Field. It just so happened that NT was going to open against the Aggies in the next week or so. I walked up the ramp into Kyle, and was stopped by a nice elderly man. He asked me what my business was, and then told me that Aggie practices were closed to the public. We visited and he was very nice, but he wouldn't let me in to watch the practice. I could have been a NT coach scouting the Aggie practice, or a spy from UT or OU. Anyway, not all practices are open. Thanks Boise Join the Mean Green Club Buy Season Tickets GO MEAN GREEN
  3. Any word on our schedule for '08 or beyond ? Thanks Boise State Join the Mean Green Club Buy Season Tickets GO MEAN GREEN
  4. Cliff Higgs is a magician. I invited him to speak at my Kiwanis Club once, and he put on a super show. I have since thought that we are missing a bet not letting him always go out for the coin flip. With Cliff handling the coin, we could get the wind 4 out of 4 quarters !
  5. Green Towels. Sure it's an A & M rip off, but it would be colorful, whatever shade of green, and the towels could be used to wipe sweat during the early part of the season. GOMEANGREEN or some other spirit group could sell them outside the stadium.
  6. My favorite part was that little blonde girl that can't keep rhythm and the prediction of the Mustang's season at the last; "The End"
  7. Oklahoma is a great football stmosphere. My son went there before coming to his senses and transfering to North Texas. But while he was there, we did the good parent thing, and went to some OU games when there wasn't a Mean Green game in Denton or nearby. But get there early enough to see the pre game activities. The OU band is very good and one of my personal favorites is the way the Oklahoma fans sing the National Anthem. The band plays the National Anthem in the traditional way, with a twirler no less. But at the end of the song, where we would sing, "and the home of the brave," you'll hear "and the home of the SOONERS." Wonderful college game day atmosphere.

  8. It needs to be green to be recognized as a Mean Green fan from across the field. SMU uses white shirts. They are used late in the game as a flag of surrender.
  9. So what happened. Did anyone ask Johnny about the Saints ?
  10. Nightmare, This is a renewal for me. I've had these tix for about 25 or 27 years. I give $500 per year, which is $100 per game and if I divide it between me and the wife unit, that's only a $50 donation each per game. I figure I've spent that much for dinner before, and I enjoy Mean Green Football more than a shrimp cocktail. Join the Mean Green Club Buy Season Tickets GO MEAN GREEN
  11. My season tickets came today. They're pretty. Also included was 2 chrome trunk emblems. I'm going to put one over my Chevrolet badge in the front Then I'll drive a Mean Green pick up. Also in the packet was a couple of coupons for a free Mean Green cap, with $30. and a "free" polo shirt with aforementioned purchase. I was hoping my Oklahoma and SMU tix would be in there also, but I guess they'll come later. Mean Green Football is almost here. Join the Mean Green Club Buy Season Tickets GO MEAN GREEN
  12. I really like SilverEagle's idea. I would think that the families of those deceased players would rather see those numbers on the field than painted on the press box. (I know, I know, Abner Haynes is very much alive and his grandson is going to SMU) I'm opposed to retiring jerseys because I expect NT to have many many great players. So many that retiring numbers would be impractical. And Silver also points out the time frame when these numbers were retired. Are we to assume that there were no North Texas players good enough to have their nubmers retired before Abner Haynes, Joe Greene, and Richard GIll ?

  13. Steven Woodward is leaving ? I'm more surprised at this news than any other player not returning. What happened ?
  14. I know it's not about NT football, but has anyone checked out the north end zone seating at Texas lately (texassports.com/webcam.html) ? It's amazing what an unlimited budget and a lot of imagination can do. I guess we'll be sitting there in the next few years when Todd Dodge makes his return to Memorial Stadium. I think we could build our stadium for what they're spending just on the north endzone. I'm green, Mean Green, with envy. Join the Mean Green Club Buy Season Tickets GO MEAN GREEN
  15. I'm glad we don't have Parson's College on the schedule this year.
  16. Thanks Rick Join the Mean Green Club Buy Season Tickets GO MEAN GREEN
  17. Then it's settled. Someone get Plumm on the phone. The name for the new stadium is "The House of Mean"
  18. This will be a tough game. We need to make Ford Field "Fouts Field South" Come early, but certainly come. And wear GREEN. White might be mistaken for supporters of the Ponies. Join the Mean Green Club Buy Season Tickets GO MEAN GREEN PS...I like "The House of Mean"
  19. If Plumm says Sam Houston was at the Alamo, then he was at the Alamo. The history books are wrong. Remember the Alamo Remember the Mean Green Join the Mean Green Club (Davy Crockett is next mont's guest speaker) Buy Season Tickets GO MEAN GREEN
  20. I was looking at the SMU board, and noticed that the Ponies were predicted by FOXSPORTS to go 7-5. One of the wins predicted was against NT. If I knew how, I would post it here, but I can't. Someone please, check out Ponyfans.com and post here. Thanks Join the Mean Green Club Buy Season Tickets GO MEAN GREEN
  21. I'm glad to see this topic back on the board. Would NT Law be helped if the law school were to be housed on or near the Denton Campus, rather than downtown Dallas ?
  22. Does the 4,000 tix you mention include the " first 1,000 students that purchase tickets to the SMU game can buy them for $10. ea "
  23. I think the "pride stickers" are fine for high school teams, but this is big time college football. We should expect all our players to play with intensity every play, every game. Many of these players are being given a college education to play at North Texas. The work ethic should be assumed. The only mark on the helmets should be of the opposing team's colors exchanged in the course of the game. Join the Mean Green Club Buy Season Tickets GO MEAN GREEN
